Jireh's Little Big Speech

            Little Big Speech

I have a dream that one day my family will finally come back
to TOGETHER because when I am at home I always feel like a
person who has no one but we will all have Joy because God is a
king to all of us,we all must have FAITH, HOPE ,LOVE , CARE
for all.

I have a dream that one day my school would always have some
LOVE AND FAITH for other people. When I look at people I see
them hurting each other and we need to change that in life because
God made us to be a family all TOGETHER in this world of life.

I have a dream that one day my community will have a new life in
this world so we can all be a saint and live with God on the light side
. I want my community to have new health and to have some LOVE
, HOPE and PROTECTION in the people who are on the devils side so
they could be with us in heaven.

I have a dream that one day my country can live like New Zealand
because I want my country and all the other island places to have a
good life like all of us. Lastly for my country I want them to have
LOVE, PATIENCE, FAITH and PROTECTION with us all in life.

I have a dream that one day the world will have some FAITH
some LOVE some HOPE in with people because we are made
out of  a Saint ,We all have to have PROTECTION over people
because we are a family.

I have dream that one day my country has honour, and it’s people will treat other people with kindness and be helpful

I have dream that one day the world would stop all murders and crimes and instead stop and pray to God to help us so our world be a peaceful.

I have a dream that one day when I grow up that I can be a great role model for kids, because it’s okay to be different because you yourself are a great person.

How this inspired me was when I started my learning on Martin Luther king. Because what he did was amazing he stood up for black people along with the First lady of civil rights Rosa Parks. I am a black person and if Martin Luther king and Rosa Parks did not stand up for us black people we would not have the nice houses, nice clothes, nice schools and mostly a nice world.

Friday's Assembly

Last Friday was a very special assembly for us in Room 5. We had some special students receive awards awarded by our principal, Mr Coakley. The certificates were awarded with four main criteria in mind:

1. Never Giving up

2. Giving Extra Effort

3. Trying My Best

4. A Caring Person

Here are the four students who received their certificates.

The second reason assembly was special to us was because it was our classes turn to share some work that we'd been working on in our class. We each created a Little Big Speech inspired by Martin Luther King Jr's very own I have a Dream speech. We read a book as a class to learn about how courageous Martin was and took note of some of his BIG words he used to help him in his mission for equality! Some of these words were Love, Faith, Hope which are also part of our school motto. Keep an eye on our blog to see some of speeches this week!
