YOUNG LEADERS DAY



Buenas Dias,
My name is Shawanda. On Monday the 15th of June, 10 of our 11 young leaders went to a  young leaders day in Palmerston North. I was one of the lucky ones to go. There was 5 speakers and my two favourite were Babara Kendall and Farah Palmer. I thought that those 2 speakers had an amazing stories to tell all the leaders. When Farah walked on stage, she sung a song for us. The song was about the Black Ferns. When she was finished she continued on to talk about her life and how she became a leader of a sports team. Farah had alot of things to talk about. The other speaker i enjoyed was Barbara Kendall. Barbara is a wind surfer and was previously on Dancing with the Stars. Babara started talking about how she became a wind surfer. Babara said how she was nervous about doing dancing with the stars and she nearly wanted to give up because she was so stiff. I really enjoyed the day and i hope that maybe one day I'll see your blogs about young leaders.

Well, as Shawanda said, 11 young leaders went to young leaders day. As Kea House Captain,  I was one of those leaders. But, I got an added bonus that day. While the Mayor was speaking, I was back stage with a lady named Goff, the tech person. As well as meeting Charlie from What Now, I got to go on stage and give a gift to the mayor (lucky!) My favourite speakers were Babara Kendell and Rob Harley.They really showed me what it takes, and how to be a leader It was so much fun I bought 2 bags (one free for going backstage) and a Halogen Foundation badge. Plus, everyone got a cookie! 

Hi this is Summer I  was one of the House Captains chosen to go to the Young leaders day. I was inspired by some of the speakers. Some of the speakers were Farah Palmer, Babara Kendall, Nick Tuitasi, Rob Harley and the Mayor of Palmerston North, Jono Naylor. They all taught me to be greatful for what I've got and stand up for my self. When young leaders was over, we all got a yummy cookie.
