After assembly the senior syndicate, Ms Hansell, the teachers and I did Kapa Haka. It was amazing we learnt a song and a Haka in about half an hour or so, it was unbelievable! Later on Kapa Haka was finished and the seniors had a five-minute early start to morning tea. While they were outside, I stayed in the hall with Ms Hansell, Mrs Fepulea’i and Miss Hansell and we had a hot drink. It was such a fun treat to do that.
After morning tea Ms Hansell had to go to a meeting so I was left in charge of the school. I felt so excited to have that job. Mrs Gibson gave me the school mobile phone to walk around with in case they needed to contact me. Next I went around the school to make sure that everything was ok and to see if the teachers needed anything done. I went into Room 6 (my usual classroom) for a little while to see what they were doing. They were all really pleased to see me. After that I helped Kelly with the lunches then the bell rang. I went outside and saw heaps of happy students and teachers it was an amazing sight to see. While everyone was outside some of the teachers and I went upstairs and got some yummy lunch and a hot drink in the staff room.
When lunchtime was finished I went into the office and helped Mrs Williamson count how many children had brought money for the school photos. After helping Mrs Williamson the bell for home time went and I turned back into a student and went and got R.J. (my younger brother). I had such a great day and my family were so proud of me. I would love to be a principal when I grow up. Thank you Ms Hansell.
You are such a stunning young person, Keziah. You have had "LEADERSHIP" written all over you since you were in the Junior classes. It is a wonderful experience for us as staff, to watch you grow into such a capable leader. Everyone thought you made an excellent "Principal for a Day" - Kia Ora mo nga mahi nui e kotiro!!
