Grace Reiter has completed the entire curriculum (four terms). This was her graduation speech:
Ladies and gentlemen, at the start of Term 4, last year, I walked into SHINE a scared and shy girl and now a year later I can confidently stand here and speak tonight.
I would like to thank Miss Anderson for her wonderful support and wisdom, my parents for giving me the opportunity to come to SHINE and Jordan, who has been with me every step of the way.
Over the past year, I have learnt new skills, met new people and gained a lot of confidence. My fondest memory is losing $110 in the “um, ah, well, like” competition but I have come a long way from there and now I am finishing my SHINE education. Thank you Miss Anderson and my classmates – I will never forget this year.
