Speech
Finally after 6048 long hours another year at Branksome has ultimately come to an end. Though not every one of those 362 880 minutes has been the best for some of you, I do hope that a large portion of that time was fun and rewarding for all of you. To most of the students the end of this school year means the beginning of summer, however for me and my fellow peers the ending of grade 10 is the portal to a new chapter in our lives, it has much significance. The time spent in middle school enriched our lives with experiences, the lessons we learned priceless, the friends we made ageless and the memories created unforgettable. There are some things money can?t buy, for everything else there?s the realization that Branksome is an immense puzzle piece of who we are and we have many people to thank for that. I know I speak for the entire student body when I thank the teachers for their time, patience and encouragement. Each teacher has taught us so much
In our past lie the traditions which our community is built upon. When you reflect on this year, remember all that you have accomplished, remember what you have learned, and the teachers that taught you. However, what lies within this school, are the guiding force, which propels this community to greater and greater heights each year. We are able to experiment without that fear of failure in this comfortable and supportive environment To the grade 10?s of 2003, I feel very lucky to have experienced these last few years of middle school with you. We are so fortunate and proud to be students of this school as it leads us into the new frontier. A wise man once said, ?What lies before us and what lies behind us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us?. Branksome is the living testimonial of this statement. Though I am leaving branksome next year and moving on to a better place in which Andrew attends , I will not forget the wonderful teachers and students that make this school the exceptional place it is. The girls? spirit and dreams are the foundation that this great era is built upon, we built are school on the rock we stand, not on the failing sinking sand, most of all we built it together. Like we learned in chemistry, those of use who had few electrons to give, gave anyways, while others accepted them we were able to form full valence shells, full lives. At the beginning of grade 7, many of us barely new each other, though as the years went by, a bond began to form. As they taught us about who we are and who we would like to be they made sure that we never lost our individuality. Before us lies this school?s future. We have all grown as individuals and have had 3 years of a journey that taught us about ourselves and each other. Branksome has given me so much more then I could ever ask for, and I thank all of you for sharing your knowledge, enthusiasm, smiles, and more importantly your friendship.
