Holidays are the real test of who you really are!




It is wonderful to come to the end of a term after you have all worked so hard and written tests and won and lost in sport and grown in your friendships with each other – maybe even had some bad times in your friendships and have had to work them out all over again.
During the term you have developed disciplines as you have kept to timetables and worked with schedules. There is a bell to tell you when class begins and ends there is a whistle to tell you when you have done something wrong on the sports field, or when the ball is out of play.
Here at school you are guided about what to do and what to think and when to do it. But for a few weeks now you will be free – but with freedom comes responsibility – for your will have to decide for yourself what is right and wrong, you will have to decide for yourself when it’s time to start and time to stop. The real test is whether you are able to take what you have learned here and apply it in your own lives. Holidays are the real test of who you really are!! Are you ready for the challenge?
I am sure you are – so while you rest and jol and spend time with your friends and families, don’t lose sight of who you are...don’t forget that as scripture says in Proverbs chapter 13 (1) “Intelligent children listen to their parents; foolish children do their own thing” and (20) - Those who plan evil are in for a rude surprise, but those who work for good will find happiness.”

Enjoy you holidays and May God bless you.
