THOUGHT OF THE DAY: It makes a great deal of difference in the life of a race, as it does in the life of an individual, whether the world expects much or little of that individual or of that race. What do you think? Does it make a difference if the world around you expects you to succeed? What if the world around you expects you to fail Here at school we expect the best from you. We want you to succeed, and expect you to succeed. Today remember to expect the best from yourself. Expect nothing less than success. Do your personal best!
