There are many badges for school that need to be acquired on an annual basis. As the Grade 5’s and Grade 12’s move on to greater things, the prefects go with them. Every year new prefects as well as head prefects need to be chosen to assist the teachers in controlling learners in the schools. These prefects need new badges and the badges cannot simply be passed down from one year to the next. Most prefects also prefer to keep their badges so that they can remember their leadership qualities and the other characteristics that got them chosen as prefects in the first place. Make sure you choose badges that are hard wearing and will last not only one year but for a life time.
