On Thursday 25th May the Student Leaders went to the National Young Leaders Day with Mr Miller. They were inspired by a range of guest speakers who shared their experiences and words of wisdom with them. Some of their favourite quotes were:
One of student leaders, Kayla, summed up what all this means to her as a leader:
"Nobody's different, they're unique. Be yourself - if you like yourself, everyone else will too. I am myself, there's no one else like me and there is only one of me. If you want to believe, believe in yourself. No matter how many people or how many times people say no, it's OK to keep going. Don't take no for an answer. Make a difference in the world. Sometimes when you're uncomfortable, it can come with huge rewards. Go for it! Get off your technology and live the world's beauty. Only you have to live with the consequences, nobody else. Stand up for yourself and stand up for others."
