Dear Mrs Tofa,

My name is Hannah. I’m writing to say thank you for giving up your time to talk to us about how you love your career.

Thank you for sharing your stories about your family and how you lived in Samoa. Also, thank you for making us laugh while you were presenting.

I found it really interesting when you talked about school and how long it took you to be where you are now. We all know you are a person with a strong will and this helped you achieve your goals. You did all of those difficult things just to become who you are today. I learnt that if you can’t make a decision on your career, you can’t count on anyone else to make that decision for you.

I really appreciate you giving up your time to come and talk to us.

Yours sincerely

Hannah

Dear Mrs Ripata,

My name is Hannah. I’m writing to say thank you for sparing some time for us, so you could talk to us about your career.

Thank you for sharing the struggles of your family and how you lived in Tonga.

I found it really interesting when you talked about school and how long it took for you to be where you are now. I also found your family history interesting too. I learnt that just because your family may be poor, it doesn’t mean you can’t make your dreams come true.

I really appreciate you giving up your time to come and talk to us.

Yours sincerely

Hannah

Dear Mr Tamati Parker,

My name is Hannah. I’m writing to say thank you for giving your time to come and talk to us at Glenbrae School.

I thought you were really confident in sharing things about construction work and also commercial managing. I enjoyed some of what you said but, other things I didn’t understand.

I found it really interesting when you started talking about different kinds of job opportunities in the construction industry and what you do at your job. What I also found interesting was the drawings you did on the board, while talking.

I really appreciate you giving up your time to come and talk to us.

Yours sincerely

Hannah

Dear Mr Dunn

My name is Hannah. I’m writing to say thank you for coming to Glenbrae School to talk to us about Tamaki College and what we can learn and do in college. Thank you for sharing things about what you have to do in college and what happens when you succeed.

I found it really interesting when students from Tamaki College were talking about their trips and what they feel about the lessons they have during the days in school. I learnt that even if a college is the lowest college in the community, it doesn’t mean it’s a bad college. I know that any college can lead you to success and make you improve in anything.

I really appreciate you giving up your time to come and talk to us.

Yours sincerely

Hannah

Dear Matua Leighton,

My name is Hannah. I’m writing to say thank you for coming to Glenbrae School to talk to us about your career and what you do.

Even though you became a father at a very young age, you are a really dedicated man who looks after your family. It was very nice to talk to you at lunch time, too.

I found it really interesting when you started talking about your experiences, your children and your struggles. There are a lot more people out there in the same situation. Some of them don’t even know how to fix it but, you turned out to be a great and hilarious person.  From your talk, I learnt how to always have a back-up plan if something goes wrong. I also, now know to always stick to my education before I do anything else.

I really appreciate you giving up your time to come and talk to us.

Yours sincerely

Hannah

My name is Hannah. I’m writing to say thank you for coming to Glenbrae School to talk to us about your career and what you do.

I thought you were really confident with sharing your artwork with us and also growling us off when we were being disrespectful.

I found it really interesting when you showed us your artwork and shared with us the stories of how your artwork came to be. I wish I was really good at art like you. What I also found interesting was the different methods you use to make your artworks.

I really appreciate you giving your time to come and talk to us.

Dear Constable Geof,

My name is Hannah. I’m writing to say thank you for sharing your heart-touching experiences with us, at Glenbrae School. Even though you struggled through days in the past, you actually turned out to be a really wealthy man and husband. Also, thank you for making hilarious jokes when you were talking to us. It was so funny.

I found it really interesting when you talked about your struggles and how long it took for you to get to where you are now. I learned that if you just sit around all day, not caring about any other thing besides video games, you’ll probably end up with nothing. I also learnt that if your first career choice doesn’t come out as planned, you definitely need a back-plan.

I really appreciate you giving your time to come and talk to us.

Yours sincerely

Hannah

Dear Constable Andrew,

My name is Hannah. I’m writing to say thank you for sharing your heart-touching experiences with us, at Glenbrae School. Even though you struggled through days in the past, you actually turned out to be a really wealthy man, and good husband and father.

I found it really interesting when you talked about your struggles and how long it took for you to get to where you are now. I learned that if you just sit around all day, playing tekken, it isn’t going to take you anywhere. I also learnt that if your first career choice doesn’t come out as planned, you definitely need a back-plan.

I really appreciate you giving up your time to come and talk to us.
