“I was very angry after the first session. I was upset that for so long I thought that I was doing OK when I was not. I did not push myself at all. I thought that it would all just happen if I passed grade 12. To be honest I had not thought about anything much at all. Thank you that I now think a lot more and push myself more. I will not be part of the 30% group anymore.”
“First of all I would like to express my gratitude to the organisers and the people involved in making the programme possible.
The leadership programme has had a great impact on me so far. Bron pushes us very hard and I have discovered things about myself that I wasn’t aware of before and I have learned a lot about the people I have been working with in the programme. I am now more aware of the things that are happening around me. I think I have gained some self confidence and self belief and also learned what it takes to be a good leader. She makes us question so many things that I had never even thought about. I am using my brain so much more.
Thank you.”
“Bron is scary because she questions everything we say. I have not had to justify my opinions before and I like the way we all debate things that are important to us. I have seen the value in responding and not reacting to things. I am using the skills we learnt in conflict resolution in everyday situations. Thank you.
“This leadership programme has motivated me to focus on studies and try my best to score more marks in each subject. It has changed my mind when thinking or doing something to think out of the box and think carefully. Since I have been part of this programme my manners have changed and I am more respectful. I can also handle pressure better. Bron told us that 30% is not good enough, and I am trying very hard to get to that other 70% she talks about. I will not be one of the stupid anymore. Bron has made me believe in myself. Thank you Bron.”
“On behalf of the learners and the school, thank you for your invaluable input and service.”
“The leadership programme made a huge impact on me in that I learnt a lot of things about being a leader and how to handle things as well as about myself. I am looking forward to learning more skills and to be a good leader that can change people’s lives. I can’t wait for the Friday class, I learn so much. Thank you.”
“The program has impacted my life by changing the way I perceive or view the way things function in society and how to face the challenges of certain life situations. I continue to learn and be challenged each Friday and look forward to the class.”
