Every year, the Year 12's have an opportunity to make a lasting impact on our School by centering their year around a lasting message, a motto that is relevant and inspires our School community to be better. The Class of 2022 has asked us to 'Be That Somebody'.
I am sure many of us have had a thought pop into our head of ‘I wish I could do that’ or ‘if only I had the confidence to do this’ and sometimes these thoughts are unavoidable.
Yet do we ever ask the question to ourselves what is holding us back from trying? That is what ‘Be That Somebody’ is all about, being the type of person who can take on a challenge and use any opportunity to improve and better ourselves.
Although at times it may be scary, we want the motto to emphasise that every interaction with yourself or others is an opportunity to strengthen yourself in minor, manageable ways, without feeling obligated to completely change who you are.
Whether that is speaking up when you may be hesitant, trying something new or even as little as lending a hand to help someone out.
All moments provide an opportunity to make a positive change even if it is small. ‘Be That Somebody’ is not changing yourself to try and be the ideal, perfect person.
In fact, it is quite the opposite, it is being that someone who is not afraid to make mistakes and fail. It is being that person who can embrace who they are and not apologise for it. It is being that person who tries to make a positive impact whenever they have the chance.
So, we challenge you: be that somebody. Take every moment, no matter how small, to be the best version of yourself.
