It's been a pleasure

My last words

Whilst Ms Koloveros is completely correct because you are the nicest year group, you are also

• considerate of others
• highly motivated
• plus full of confidence, enthusiasm, passion, respect, gratitude, creativity, hope, humour, grit and love

It has been an absolute pleasure listening to your teachers use these words to describe you for the last six years.

Thank you to all of you for confiding in me. Thank you to all of you for the enjoyable times we have shared. Thank you for trusting both myself and Mrs Farah as we did our utmost to guide you during your high school years. You have provided me with something that I can never repay.

However, to finish, this wouldn’t be a speech unless I left you with a quote.  Winston Churchill once said:

“Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end.

But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.”

So head out my little rippers and begin the next exciting chapter of your life.
