Key leadership role #5

Today I was at my leadership meeting and we were talking about the house games that we are going to do and the house bin challenges we found who the winner is but that is a secret for now. Then we were talking about the badges and who got them because we needed to have them by the end of the term and I haven't yet. I showed respect by not answering back to the teacher .

Since I am a house captain it is part of my duty to put out the flags and put out the house color bins, at the moment rata is in the lead but even in the rain we have to put out the flags and bring them in but for this term I am on putting them out and I sometimes have to help the people that bring them in because some people are away or they are too busy to do them. so I help but I think as a group of house captains we are doing a great job at doing our role and dressing up in our house colours and I think that kowhai is the best but don't tell anyone that shh.  I showed active thinker by doing my role and having fun when I do it.
