House Leader speech

I  did this speech when I was trying to become house leader, hopefully this counts towards my homework challenge under excellence in the arts.

Hello fellow Rimu house students.  For those of you new year sevens and year eights that don’t know me my name is Ryan Collier. This year I am a year eight in room 42 Rimu house and am hoping to be house leader. 

Why do I want to be house leader, well for a couple of reasons; firstly I think it would be a great opportunity to be able to lead one of the mightiest houses and to be involved and have a say about some of the things that impact our house.

I also enjoy helping people and I am not afraid to speak out when things may not be right. So I hope I will be able to help solve any problems that you may have and or get this year, if I am chosen

I would also be proud to lead and represent our house, as I enjoy being part of Rimu and have never wanted to be in any other house.

I may not be the tallest person in our house but I hope that if you choose me as house leader you will be able look up to me. I may not be the smartest person but I always try to improve as much as I can through out the year, and I may not be the most athletic person but I try my hardest at all sports. To be house leader I know that you don’t have to be the best at every thing just give every thing your best, and that is what I will try to do.

Now I would like to tell you a little about me and what I like and do at school

During class, Maths would have to be my favourite subject however theres also nothing like a good book to take your mind off whats going on around you, Reading is a great way for me to ignore the rest of my work and take a rest. I don’t like using pens, Thats why I’m happy I’m part of the mighty red army- Rimu!

you may not know this but I was the Rimu’s tapuwae goalie last year, although we didn’t win the house competition I got my name called out in assembly and I was awarded a coke and chocolate bar from Mr Diver. I got this for never giving up and giving it my all. Thats what P.E and house sports are all about to me.

So now you know a little about me I hope that you vote for me to be your house leader.

Dinner Ryan Style

Today on sunday 3 March I cooked dinner for my family, Here is the menu and the Feedback questions for the dinner. The theme for this meal was Italian. The reason I choose to do this was I though it would  be a nice light meal and not to hard to make. 

The feedback I got showed that my family enjoyed it and would like it again and it also gave me some tips for next time I cook.

( I will put some of the Photos up a litte later as I need to export them)
