On Friday the 3rd of August, 9 Room 8 children went to a Leadership forum. At the course there were visitors who spoke to the audience and the kids got morning tea. Not only Fitzroy School went, there were a whole lot of kids (roughly 6oo). One of the highlightswas when some kids got on stage and did some dancing and won Mcdonalds and Itunes vouchers. One lucky girl from Toko School won an Ipod Touch and $60 worth of Itunes. Fitzroy School is very lucky as we have one talented girl Keana Fox who went up on stage to thank Lisa Tamati.
The purpose of the Forum was to encourage and inspire the leaders of the next generation. Our group especially liked what Lisa Tamati had to say because you knew what she had done was real and amazing, even with bad asthma. She spoke well, had heaps of confidence and was full of interesting facts and opinions.
These are some of the visitors quotes:

Dont listen to can't, you can - Jamie Fenton
A CHAMPION is someone who gets up, even when they can't - Glenn Anderson
