Student Interview - Nicola 

Student Interview with Nicola  - Year 6

What do you love about school?

Nicola- There are numerous reasons why I love BNPS. There are a lot of fun playgrounds, the teachers are wonderful and it's right around the corner from my house. At this awesome school there is a lot to love.

Were you nervous about starting Year 6?

Nicola - Absolutely. I knew it was a huge responsibility to take on being a leader at school and always needing to be on my best behaviour because I realized that every single year level was going to look up to me. I was aware that I would still have the best time of my life thanks to the terrific teachers and the greatest friendships.

Who is your hero?

Nicola- Choosing just one hero was tough, but I have narrowed it down to Iga Swiatek a famous Polish tennis player who was number one in the world last year. Being Polish myself, she holds a special place in my heart. Additionally, Lauen Jackson is a well-known, female basketball player, who is 42 years old and still plays basketball for the Southside flyers. On the court, she still is the best and I know how hard she would be practicing. She inspires me to keep gong no matter how old you are.

Do you play a sport or have a 

hobby?

Nicola - Basketball is my ultimate favourite among many hobbies. I play with the Beaumaris Sharks Basketball Club and my dad is the president of the club. I also play for the Sandringham Sabres under 14's which is enjoyable. As well, I am one in a few who is representing Victoria right now in basketball.

What do you want to be when you grow up?

Nicola- I haven't decided yet, but either a doctor, lawyer, or basketball player.

What did you see recently that made you smile/be happy?

Nicola- This year, I've started playing guitar and I can already play two Taylor Swift songs. I have been spending a large amount of time playing with my dog outside, every day after homework, which has been a relaxing break for my mind. She is the funniest dog ever!

If you had a wish, what would        you wish for?                                         

Nicola-I wish for all healthy food to be so much more affordable than junk food. Therefore, everyone can enjoy a healthier lifestyle without spending a fortune.
