On 24th March 2026, Convent of Jesus and Mary (CJM) Waverley, Mussoorie, organised its investiture ceremony in the school hall, formally inducting the newly elected student council and editorial board for the academic year 2026. The ceremony marked a significant milestone as young leaders were entrusted with the responsibility of upholding the school’s values and serving as role models for their peers. The Chief Guest, Fr. Baiju, along with the Principal, Sr. Shyma V. Jose, conferred badges and sashes upon the council members. The event was graced by the presence of Manager Sister Pereira, Sisters of the community, teachers, and students from Grades I to XII. The programme commenced with a prayer led by the Head Girl, Sarvagya Chaudhary, and concluded with the school anthem.
The student council plays a vital role in fostering leadership, discipline, and a sense of responsibility among students. Council members are entrusted with duties such as maintaining school decorum, organising events, representing student voices, and assisting in the smooth functioning of various school activities. Their role demands commitment, integrity, and teamwork, as they act as a bridge between the students and the administration. The ceremony concluded with a tea gathering in the dining hall for guests, parents, teachers, captains, and prefects, celebrating the beginning of a new leadership journey.
