Becoming a Leader

On Friday the 8th of Parkvale School had there school assembly. This assembly was special because they were announcing the leaders for 2014. All of the Yr 6's were excited because they had all applied. This assembly was very long with all of the other stuff that gad to be done like Room 3's assembly item, PRIDE Awards and much much more.,

The assembly went on and on until the end. They announced the leaders. It took forever. They started with Digi Leaders.  Cameron O from our class got Digi Leader. Then the Bankers, P.E Monitors and  Sport PALS. Aidan from our class got Sport Pal as well. Then Young Leaders.

Miss Hill announced them 1 by 1.  Miss Hill announced Nikita then Me. Rani then Zac and last but not least, Mohit.  16 Young Leaders were standing up there waiting to see who is House Leaders. I had to wait to the end because my House was last. Miss Hill said really loud "Gerogia and" then she paused "Ethin". I was screaming in excitement from getting two things with badges. Now swimming sports. House comp. its my time to shine!!!!!!

Now I am a Young leader and House Leader. A blue badge and a Bright yellow one (Because I am in Yellow house) You can see me an mile away.
