Head Girl Speeches

Thank you for nominating me for such a prestigious role in Panmure Bridge. As you may know, my name is Nazella. Being a leader of Panmure Bridge school has been my goal ever since I saw Fine presenting on stage, I have been nominated for being head girl and believe that I will make a perfect head leader. But what entitles me to this position, you may ask?

I am confident, hard-working and passionate girl ,with an aim to not only drive forward, but to ensure that my fellow peers are driving with me to a journey to greatness. I mean, isn’t that what this school looks towards, ‘striving to achieve?’ More of my qualities important for the role of head leader include determination, an attribute that I have adopted or learned over my many years in Panmure Bridge School. Think about it, you wouldn’t want a leader to perform a poor job and surrender half way there? Would you?

To me, given the title of ‘leader’ does not mean to just be named, no. But to guide people through their learning journey.

Being a leader of Panmure Bridge school means representing our school with a high standard. I am a confident girl that wears our school uniform with pride. As a leader, I will also remember to always fulfil my responsibilities and to look after you, no matter what race, gender, size or age you are! Respecting teachers, visitors, students and the school is my main priority, whether I’m leader or not. This year I have participated in kiwi sport and made sure that everyone was encouraged and that they were doing the right thing. I motivated them so that they never felt discouraged and that they don’t think that they aren’t a worthy player.

Whatever happens, I will always be respectful and follow our CARE values. Being leader is a big opportunity and is a massive deal to me. If I do make the position, I will fulfil all the responsibilities and always have a smile on my face. Please, consider me as your vote, I promise I won’t let you down.

This year I have been nominated for head girl. This week the leader nominations wrote a speech about why they should be in the position of being a student leader in Panmure Bridge school. Today we said our speeches infront of LS2. I was nervous but tried my hardest when it was my turn. All of the eyes of LS2 were looking at me, but I still recited my speech. I mumbled a few times, but tried to focus on the speech. I then remembered that this was my goal for over 1/2 years, so I tried harder and harder to focus and recite the speech more confidently. After all the speeches were done, the student leaders and the year 7's then voted. 

Leader Nominations

Today we had our leader nominations for 2017 in Panmure Bridge school. The year 7's chose people they believed would be great student leaders, we then will choose 6 people from the different areas (Manaiakalani, Sports, Head Students,) one boy and one girl each area that had the values of being trustworthy, that can speak clearly, confidently and with expression and that is enthusiastic. We chose people who will motivate and interest people while saying speeches, and that will get involved. 

Leadership Tagul

This term we are focusing on leadership, this is because next year we will all be leaders as we're going to be year 8's. We were looking at qualities and different role models. We had answers like 'Mum' or 'Nelson Mandela'. We used 'tagul' to make our word cloud. We found out that leaders all make mistakes, but learn from them. In the end, we all had our own role models, these models all had different qualities. 

Leadership Week

Yesterday, Lynne Le Gros from Spark came to Panmure Bridge School to talk to us about leadership. It was leadership this week which is made by the Sir Peter Blake Trust. The first thing we did was talk about our role models and have a reason why. It could be anyone, a family member, a world leader, someone who inspires you. We then had a piece of paper and wrote our dream for NZ's future and your dream in life. Spark donated a drink bottles, pens, books, and a bag. A very big thank you to Spark!
