Were You A Prefect At School? Or Something Else?

I was a Prefect at school and a House Captain too!

I liked being a Prefect, especially on very cold days, as you could stay in school at breaktime or lunchtime.
I do wonder, if you become a bit of a ‘Little Hitler’ when you are bestowed with all that power at a young age?
Do you remember any obnoxious Prefects?

So, were you a Prefect, even Perfect at school?
Or maybe you were a Librarian or a sports captain?

None of those things, I chose not to wear a swastika armband and become a goose-stepping nazi !!!

Re: Were You A Prefect At School? Or Something Else?

I read that as 'were you perfect at school?' and was about to say that I have been perfect all my life but anyway...

No, I was never a prefect and never wanted to be.

Re: Were You A Prefect At School? Or Something Else?

I was always in trouble at school so wasn't even in the running for being a prefect.

I was once, in junior school, a lunch monitor. I had to lay the cutlery out on the tables for the pupils, it didn't last long as me and my friend were caught having a sword fight with some knives

Something Else .....

A long-haired, pretentiously poetic, prefect-baiting "rebel" .....

I was always in the naughty cupboard. Sounds nastier than it was, I gave out books to kids who came for books for their classes. I must have done that for months.

No prefect, no captain, but my nickname was The Bailiff. I was quite a bit bigger than the majority of other kids and so many of them came to me when there was any bullying going on. One of them started calling me The Bailiff and it stuck. Later on it became Flash.

I wasn't a prefect. It wasn't cool.
I was very naughty at school.
It was too easy.

I once set off all the fire alarms.
Oh I was a rebel.
I locked a teacher in a cupboard too.
