Leadership A way I can have leadership in my friends is if I set a good example like when we play handball I can set an example and when I get out don't complain. Another example That I can set is if we play a game and we lose just say It's just a game and it doesn't mater.

This week was interesting because we got to go to NYLD which is a place schools go to learn about leadership. There were lots of speeches from people about different acts of leadership. I liked it because we did a fun game with a giant beach ball and we had to get it to the stage. Our team won and the way we made teams was half and half. We also had workshop Thursday. We watched a film about rugby that had some good leadership messages. Over all I liked this week. It was fun. -Daren
