On Wednesday 22nd of November, the Year 7's of my school went to the GRIP conference. GRIP stands for generosity, responsibility, integrity and people. GRIP is all about leadership and having integrity. The day at GRIP involved meeting kids from other schools, and having conversations that connected with other growing leaders.
We had three sessions during the day. The first session was about transforming and becoming a leader. The second session was all about being a strawberry and not a watermelon. This is a metaphor which means that strawberries are mostly the same on the inside and outside but watermelons are different on the outside to the inside. You should be true to yourself as a leader. The third session was all about integrity and what leadership is like.
My favourite part of the day was the games and how we got to meet new people. I also enjoyed the loud noises where we got to scream as loud as possible.
I want to become an librarian and join more leadership groups because I want people to know myself as a good role model and I also want the badges so I look presentable. Maybe next time for GRIP, we shouldn't have questions at the end because everyone looked bored and only the people who have questions should go up and ask.
Do you want to become a good leader and role model?
