Commitment
Ms Lauren's girls did a super job this morning teaching us all about what it means to show commitment. The girls' confidence and acting skills were outstanding. Well done to you all for expressing your message clearly, we now understand that showing commitment means sticking to a task at hand and not giving up.
Congratulations to Bissan and Mariam for doing just that this week. We are very proud of you girls, keep up the good work!
