National young leaders day


What did you think of NYLD 2015. Give your opinion and reasons why you hold these opinions (at least 4 sentences). I think that young leaders day was good because most year sixes get the opportunity to be a better leader. Each speaker and youth speaker has there own story but they all teach you how to be a better leader. I think that all year sixes should have the chance to go to young leaders day and learn how to be a better leader. All the children who walked out have become better leaders.


Who was your favourite speaker and why? (Describe in at least 4 sentences). William Pike because he has had one life threatening event going up mount ruapehu. Also the one thing that he said that stood out to me is think all passion no limits and you can do anything. That life threatening event coasted him his right leg but he got a prosthetic leg and went back up mount ruapehu. The whole time he thought all passion no limit.


What have you learnt about being a leader? (At least 4 sentences). I have learnt how to be a more responsible leader. I’ve learnt from other people how to be a better leader and never give up. Other leaders have helped me become a better leader. I’ve learnt to not care about myself but to care about others.


How could you use this learning here at school? (At least 4 sentences) I will never give up on a task even if it's really hard. I am going to ask for help whenever i get the opportunity. I will try and find away to figure something out. I will now think all positive and try and achieve my goal.


Action points - something I am going to work on (a goal) from NYLD: i am going to work on asking for help


My favourite quotes were (remember to say who said them): William pike think all passion no limits

learning goal this week

This week i have been learning how to order fractions on a number line at first i thought that it was really hard and then my teacher had a few work shops and one of my friends help me persist. Now I've got the hang of it.

Example if i have 3 quarters and i put i onto a number line i will split the number line in half then split the two halves into halves and the second to last split is 3 quarters.
