Meet the Prefects

Ilana Kotler

What was the most stressful part of the Prefect application process and why?
 
It was certainly the interview, because you have no idea about what they are going to ask you and the questions can be very broad. So be prepared.
 
Why did you want to be a prefect?
 
For the last 3 years I have been on St Paul’s, I have seen how the school managed to change me into a more principled and open-minded person which gave me many opportunities and different experiences and I would like to give it back what I once received from this institution. Also, as a pupil in my last year, I realized that being a prefect is an opportunity to have an impact in the school and be able to participate in its the development.
 
What was the hardest question they asked you in your interview?
 
What was the most creative thing you have ever done?
 
What is your favorite TV show?
 
Game of Thrones
 
What do you want to study in the future and where?
 
Economics and most likely in the UK.
 
Place you most want to visit:
 
Australia and New Zealand
 
What is one thing you want to change in school?
 
I would like to promote the sports in school by creating new events which involve volleyball, basketball and football to encourage pupils to start practicing.
 
Any advice for prospective prefects?
 
Always try to do your best in school, paying close attention in all lessons, working hard to have good grades and participate in many extracurricular activities. When applying to be a prefect, be yourself.
