We have been writing speeches ready for a speaking and listening assessment. We practised writing speeches to become a Student Rep. Our opening statements reflected our opinions of Wattle Grove Primary School and the following paragraphs were demonstrating how we would demonstrate the school values and code of conduct. It is going to be very difficult to pick Student Reps next year, as all the speeches were outstanding.
Here are a couple for you to read:
Student Rep Report
Wattle
Grove, what can I say? Our renowned standards is just one of the reasons why we
were ‘Primary School Of The Year in 2015. Why else you ask? Well this school is
where the teachers care and the pupils learn, but that’s not all, all the
students here have been taught to show respect and kindness. Our motto here at
Wattle Grove Primary School is ‘Give to Receive’. All of our students proudly
follow that motto.
Wattle Grove Primary School needs Student
Reps to keep things in place, the type of student reps we need are kind,
caring, responsible, reliable and most importantly, respectful. As a Student Rep
it would be my honour to follow all of these values, I will also give above
110%, I guarantee you. I want to be the person who people look up to, who
follow and who aren’t scared to come up to me and ask for help. I will wear my
badge with pride and develop my leadership skills as I go on. I would love to
set the example to younger students so that they look forward to becoming a
Student Rep and they already start to try their hardest ready for that. I don’t
want them to worry about being a Student Rep, I want them to be confident and
have a smile on their face when they get their badge. I’m 100% sure that I can
do that. As I am in year 5 I have seen how other Student Reps have acted and
now I can follow their excellent roles.
If everybody were to follow my example then
this school will be even better, and as you can see it’s already an outstanding
school. There will be a lot of Student Reps, so I have the opportunity to also
build on my collaborative skills. I am looking forward to all the challenges
ahead. Voting for me will be a very big advantage for this school. So make the
right choice.
Thank you

Wattle
Grove is a hard working community, full of
hardworking students, it’s not just
the students, we have impeccable teachers too. So if you choose me for Student
Rep I will be very responsible and I will maintain these high standards for as
long as I’m Student Rep, making Wattle Grove a better place by helping anyone
in need.

I don’t mind
giving up my time to go to Student Rep meetings. Do you have a role model you
can look up to? Well if you don’t, and I’m elected Student Rep, I will be your
heroic role model. I am very responsible because every day I ride with my younger
sister making sure she is safe. This is my 7th year at Wattle Grove so I know
the rules and can teach them to new students who are lucky enough to come to
our school. These kids might become Student Reps one day.
I have done a
similar a job when I was in year 1, I was student councillor and I was super at
it, so if I am Student Rep I’ll be 100% better than when I was a Student
Councillor and that’s guaranteed. Wattle Grove won school of the year in 2015,
and if I’m elected Student Rep I’ll make us win again because I have kindness, great
listening skills I respect others, I care and that’s just to name a few of my good
traits.
So I hope I have
persuaded you to vote for me and remember, Wattle Grove is a hard working
school and deserves hard working Student Reps and I’ll be one of those
students. By Jamie
Student Rep Report
Wattle Grove Primary School
is made from Kind, respectful, thoughtful students and staff, Student councillors
and student reps are a kind, humorous and a hard working community with almost
100 new students enrolling every year. We have also achieved school of the year
twice in 2014 and 2015.
Now
let’s talk about me being a student rep. I will guarantee you respect, kindness
and will make sure you don’t get injured or in trouble but certainly will have
more to offer as that’s only some of the values I have said because if I kept
on going I would run out of room. So pick me as your student rep if you really
want to be looked after even though I’m a year five and have one whole year to
wait I’m pretty sure I can be patient and wait for my turn.
So
just remember what I said about the values and our school motto Give To Receive
so when you get the chance to vote just think wisely before you choose who you
are voting for as I will bring leadership to this school. By Lincoln

We have been trying to make the planet Earth using milk, food colouring and washing up liquid. What do you think happens to the molecules in the liquids when they mix? Look what happened to the food colouring when we added washing up liquid. Try and find out about surface tension. Try it at home. It is quick and simple but effective.
