C Leadership Conference

On the 21st of may I went to a leadership conference.11 people from my school who had shown leadership skills were chosen to go to a conference in Manakau. At the start of the day we had to get up at 6.30, and had to be at school by 7.30. We got into the cars and started the drive that lasted for an hour that lead us to the auditorium in Manakau. When we got there we found our seats and sat down, and the rainbow balls came out! (big blow up balls that were thrown into the audience, and we had to hit them in different direction). The two hosts came out. They were called Danielle and Charlie. They brought out a person from the audience who was pretending to be the first speaker to see how loud the audience could clap. Then they brought on the first speaker, who was Nick Tuitasi- He was a police officer, one of the highest in Auckland. He received the person of the century award. He was interesting. Then came on Temepara George, who is a Silver Ferns netball player. She told us we should always go for our goals and never stop believing in ourselves. Then came Michael Chunn. He is a musician. He was a bit boring. My favourite was Michael Inglis. He was the first man to climb Everest with artificial legs. He was interesting and I learnt a lot about how he managed it. He told us he kept on trying. He told us that the best language is a smile.On the way back our driver told me alot about a school I might be going to,which was a bonus. This was a long story made short alot more happened but I don't know how to tell you so I told you my main points.
