  1. you're a year Six learners. It's Mr McNeil, the leader of learning.
  2. Some of you I haven't seen for a long time.
  3. But I wanted one last opportunity. Before you leave on P s
  4. to say a few things
  5. before you
  6. leave our school and go on to year seven,
  7. it won't be too long. And hopefully it won't be too boring. I just want to talk about
  8. for things.
  9. Firstly,
  10. I want you to think about being grateful.
  11. Not everyone complete primary school across the world.
  12. Only eighty-five percent
  13. of the world
  14. in the population have ever completed primary school.
  15. So you've already part of that eighty-five percent.
  16. So be grateful that you've had the wonderful opportunities
  17. you'd have had over the last six years,
  18. and you've had access to opportunities that others haven't had.
  19. So the big question that I want you to think about is
  20. what are you leaving our school with?
  21. Are you leaving all of those skills like being confident, creative, responsible,
  22. happy
  23. all of those things.
  24. So I have to think about
  25. what? You're leaving our school with
  26. One of the things that we've talked about lots and lots during your time
  27. at almost in primary school where you've been here for six years, or only this year.
  28. One of the things
  29. about the forces is that you can use them for the rest of your life.
  30. And if you think of them like a compass,
  31. because the campus that shows you
  32. different directions north, south, east, west.
  33. But it doesn't tell you what direction you should go in.
  34. It just tells you where the directions are.
  35. So the four cities are like a campus.
  36. No WiFi, no charge you needed. You can take those four seats wherever you go.
  37. It gives you options, but it doesn't give you the answer.
  38. So sometimes in your life you'll need to think about
  39. how can I be more collaborative
  40. to achieve something that might be joining a sports team?
  41. Or how can I improve my capability in something
  42. I may need to practice?
  43. What are my curious about what they're going to be the next
  44. steps or the subjects that I take when I go to college.
  45. So for learning and for your life, you can continue to use our forces.
  46. You can ask them when you're turning into a new part of your life,
  47. asking questions using different combinations, starting with curiosity,
  48. then going to collaboration
  49. and creating ways forward. So you've got that
  50. that you can take with you from our school.
  51. One piece of little wisdom
  52. that I want to share with you. Is this fucking Toki
  53. Maria,
  54. You know,
  55. believe in yourself.
  56. You're wonderful individuals and you've got a lot to offer.
  57. So when you are confronted with new challenges, believe in yourself. Have a go.
  58. Use the forces to get you to the next step.
  59. And finally, I just wanna say thank you.
  60. You've helped create and build the school.
  61. You've made
  62. all of the educators better
  63. that you've ever had at our school.
  64. You've helped set the standards for our younger learners.
  65. And you've been a part of history for the school.
  66. Lots of first in the history of the school have happened. While you've been here,
  67. you'll notice on your leaders certificate.
  68. That is a little number.
  69. Some of them are in the 100
  70. some of them are in the thousands.
  71. That number is your place in the history of the school.
  72. The lower the number means you're closer to the start of the school.
  73. So some of you will be
  74. in the two hundreds and others will be in the early two thousands.
  75. So when you come back to our school in the future,
  76. you'll be able to see and share your number
  77. to see where you fit in in the history of our wonderful school.

  79. with change that most of us have never experienced before.

  85. of the situation. So I want to thank you for that.
