Good evening ladies and gentlemen I am .......... and I am here to talk about the completion of year 11.
             This year has flown past; I guess one day a week off makes a big difference.
             Some friends have left us in the past year, some changed schools and some went on to TAFE to start a career, although they will be missed greatly we still have to look out for our own interest and our future.
             Everyone thought moving onto VCE will be a big step, well I guess in one way it was but I think it was a very good year and we gained lots of experience and made some new friends along the way.
             For example one of my good experiences in VCE was VET; we gained a lot from going into a work placement for a computer industry.
             Although I dreaded waking up 7:00am every Wednesday while the other students slept, I guess it paid off in the end of the term.
             Just one more year of hard work, and then no more looking at the absence sheet and hoping for a teacher to be away so you can have a bit of a nap in the nearest empty classroom.
             I know year 12 will take a big commitment and lots of hard work but if it goes by as fast as this year I will be very happy.
             After year 12 it all starts to get harder we have to find a job or look for schools no more fun and games, even though im looking forward to leaving school I cant help but wonder what the future holds.
             But all in all it has been a great year and I hope year 12 will be as good as this year but I no its going to be 10 times harder.
