Christopher Burton, aged 8, St Michael’s Grammar

Christopher completed the entire curriculum. This is his graduation speech:

“Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen.

I have really enjoyed the four terms at Longford and Fraser.

First of all I would like to thank Miss Anderson for all the skills she taught me, especially how to stand up to bullies and how to behave well.

Next I would like to thank my mum, dad and brother Tommy for driving me to Longford and Fraser every Monday for a whole year, and for cooking me dinner beforehand so I wasn’t hungry at Longford and Fraser class.

I would also like to thank my classmates for being patient when I was speaking in class and for making the class a lot of fun.

At Longford and Fraser I learned a lot of things. I learned how to choose good friends wisely. I also learned how to say NO the good way and how to be assertive.

I liked everything in the course, especially playing all the games. My favourite game was the self-control game, where you had to stare at your partner’s eyes for 40 seconds without smiling. I was really good at this game. I also found interesting all the questions that Miss Anderson asked the class.

I feel sad that Longford and Fraser is finished and I hope I can come back when I am older.
