The Home Stretch - Finbar

My top priority this term is independent study with speech being the next highest priority. The thing I am looking forward to most this term is finishing my independent study I think this because finishing something you have spent a whole year on is very satisfying. I think I am just starting to click. My main question about the west coast trip is what is the highlight for most people. If I was principal I would first make the school pool bigger and also make certain subjects such as P.A and art optional.

Good morning Mr T. Surely it's more than 41? surely, surely, surely? My priorities are absolutely terrible. I'm looking forward to you telling me that it's just a joke and that we have more time.

THE HOMEE STRRRRRAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIT- KCOX

PRIORITY:::: INDEPENDANT STUDY. I am really looking forward to the Y8 indep studies. I think in half a week i will fully click with the size of the work. I have no idea about the west coast trip so my questions are mainly. WHAT ON EARTH DO WE DO????  Even so I can't wait for the west coast trip it is going to be very exciting and I do hope have good weather conditions. If I was given one year as the principal of wellesley. I would first make chapel non compulsory. We may be an anglican school BUT in this country we have a RIGHT TO PRACTISE WHAT EVER WE WISH.

I am really enjoying school at the moment. My priorities are my booklet for Independant study and my speech. I plan to work extremely hard before and after the West Cost trip so that I can feel proud of my work at the end of the year. If I was the principle of Wellesley college for a year I would put a deep end into the school pool so that every body including the seniors would be able to swim in it. I would also put next to the feald a shop full of refreshments, sort of like the canteen but down by the feald. I am exremely busy but very happy as well and I look forward to the days to come!

My priorities for this term is to have a great presentation and booklet. As I'm looking forward to more wharf jumping. I have been waiting for ages for my presentation. I have already clicked into the work and nearly finished with my speech and booklet to go. I think I've already learnt how hard the work. If I was the the principal I would no major changes and since I am gone after two months I don't really mind about any of the rules

The Home Strait - Jake Breslin

My priorities for term four are my independent study and speech. Obviously my independent study take priority as it is a massive project that needs to be finished.
I am really looking toward to the Year 7 camp but still have to raise a little more money to get there. I definitely have clicked with the amount of work left and the time frame diminishing by the second. If I were principal of Wellesley I would make learning to code and technology a much more prominent part of the curriculum and I would make chapel optional.

The End

The Home Stretch - Noah

This year has gone really quickly for me. It has gone much quicker than last year and we only have 41 days left which is not long at all. Although I am looking forward to the end of school I still have stuff I need to do. This term my main priorities are to get my Independent study done soon and get my speech over and done with. If I was the principal of Wellesley for a year I would probably keep it the same but I would change some things like: make sure that the pool is filled in summer and have a P.E. Shed where you can get balls at lunchtime. 

The Home Stretch-Lucca

My two priorities are my speech and my independent study presentation. I'm not fully focused on the booklet because its due in way later because I'm presenting in probably week five before west coast. Then I'll have three or four weeks to focus on my booklet. I'm oozing forward to the holidays and a fresh start next year. I'll probably click when it's a week or two before my presentation or speech if not I've already clicked. Yes, I want this year to be remembered as a fun but busy year that I enjoyed. If I were principal I would make some events and subjects optional but it is good to try new things. But I personally think chapel should be optional because some families don't believe in god, same with athletics, some people don't want to go down to the field all day, do two races or events that you don't enjoy and the go back to class sunburned.

The Home Stretch - Felix

My first priority this term is to finish my Independent study presentation. The thing that I am most looking forward to is the mighty, fun and adventurous West Coast trip like most year sevens. I think I clicked the second day back at school. I do not have many questions about the mighty West Coast trip and I think I will just go with time flow. I would like to remember the last term as hardworking and fun. I would increase the number of wharf jumps because I feel a lot more open minded after a wharf jump on a hot day.

My Stretching Homies - TimTam

My priority for this term would definately be my Independent Study and possibly speech. The thing I am looking forward to is seeing what my score for Independent Study is. To be honest I think I have already clicked about the work that needs to be done. My one question for the West Coast trip is; do we get to keep the gold we pan up? Yes I know... I want to be remembered for just being That Guy. Yes. That Guy. If I was given the principals role I would decrease the amount of things that last about an hour so children don't get bored. Dank you. Dank you very much.

Good morning Mr T, I have 41 days of school left in 2016. the fourth term is, as you know, very busy for me. My priorities for this term is Independent study booklet and presentation. i am most looking forward to hearing some of the other independent studies. I think that I will click very soon, I am doing my presentation in a week and I am not very worried. I am thinking about the obligations that pepper term 4. I want to be remembered for having a good independent study and for being a good house captain. (french cup would also be nice) If I was the principal I wouldn't change much, apart from giving everyone int he senior syndicate a week of study leave at the end of term 3.

The Home Stretch-Tom A

My priorities for this year are getting my booklet on the shelf and my presentation done. I am also looking forward to these two things being done the most as well. I think that I have already clicked and have pulled my finger out and buckled down, sort of. Although I am in a better position than I was in this  time last year it is still not as good as I would have liked. With only 41 more days as a Wellesley boy I hope that I will make it to prize giving unscathed.

The Home Stretch- Goosey A

I think that what I'm really working this term is doing well in both speech and independent study. I am really looking forward to going on the west-coast camp. I probably 'clicked' during the holidays before this term when I realised that independent study and my speech were going to be very big this term. I don't have any questions about the mighty west coast trip, I'm just going to go with the flow. I want to be remembered as a caring, energetic and happy person. I don't know what I would change as the principle, I like Wellesley college as it is.    

The Home Stretch - Tom B

This term I want to get the first draft of my booklet in before we go on our West Coast Trip. I am really looking forward to presenting my presentation and I'm also looking forward to going on the West Coast trip. I think that I have just recently clicked about how much work I have to do and how little time I have to do it all. I would really like to know what the ferry ride to the West Coast is like. If I were the principal at Wellesley College for a year I would get rid of speeches, personally I really don't like speeches and they get in the way of of lots of other work, for us independent study.

The Home Stretch - William

The last 41 days of my life as a Wellesley College pupil are here, and the end of the year is rapidly approaching. My Independent Study looms as a big commitment for this term, but smaller things on the side such as speech and sports fixtures will keep me on my toes. I am rubbing my hands with glee and anticipation at the prospect of presenting my I.S on The Watergate Scandal to the class. About 9.05am on the first day back at school, it clicked as to how rapidly fast things were coming up, but I am confident I can achieve them, as I have already accumulated 269 runs on the board. I know that I am not out and hopefully, this tally keeps growing until we reach the fateful day they call 'Prize giving.' Hopefully I am remembered for the genius that I am... I mean as a kind humble fellow going about his daily business. If I were principal for a year at Wellesley, I would resign immediately, and go and make millions at Wall Street instead.

The Home Stretch

I feel that my priorities are I.S. and Speech. My I.S. will be the one I am most looking forward. I feel i have clicked already, although not all the time. Well, about the west coast, my cousin went there and my aunt said he was sick until Thursday. Does that usually happen? i don't know what I want to be remembered as. To be fair, this year has been great, I wouldn't change a thing.

The Home Stretch - James

In my last 41 days at Wellesley I wish to have as much fun as possible. If I was the Principle at Wellesley I would reintroduce POP back into Wellesley I would also clear the Inner Quad and make a huge cricket feild and with quality grass pitches. I would make a club for people who wish to learn how to look after a field. It has clicked to me the massive workload that I have. My priority is to finish my I.S to a very high standard. I am very excited for all of the cricket coming up

The Home Stretch_ArchieC

My priority is pretty much just to do well on my Independent Study and kind of my speech. It kinda clicked about on Monday that my Indie was due in next week and I was only like half way but now I'm a lot closer which is good. I don't really have many questions about the extra obligations. If I was principal I would make the cricket pitch better so it resembles a cricket pitch not a bomb site. We also need to bring back POP.

The Home Stretch - Mr T

Good morning boys.  You have 41 school days left in 2016.  The fourth term is, as you know, very busy for you.  What are your priorities for this term?  What are you most looking forward to?  When do you think you will 'click' about the heavy workload and the rapidly diminishing timeframe? Or...have you already clicked?  Year 7s... what questions do you have about the mighty West Coast trip?  Year 8s... what questions do you have about the extra Yr 8 obligations that pepper the last term? How do you want to be remembered for the final term in what has been a very good year?  If you were given a year in the role of principal at Wellesley College, what changes would you introduce and why?
