Bragging again!!!
 
I have just got back from Jakes Graduation evening................it was a bit of an emotional roller coaster...........(the silly cow that I am ended up bawling!!!!)

Anyway at the end Jake was given a personal reference, for the future...........I quote

'Upon his arrival at Kinross College, Jake quickly made friends with members of his community, and has since expanded the group mainly due to his great sense of humour and friendly nature.
He is a mature, polite and respectful student who has excellent people skills. A cooperative and enthusiastic student and is well liked. His punctuality, attendance, personal presentation and reliability have made him a valued class member.

I wish Jake all the best in his future and am confident that with his determined attitude he will fulfill his life long dream of a career in the Australian Defence Force'

That boy made me so proud...............think the tears are starting again!!!

What lovely things to be said about your son. I only hope one day someone says something as nice about one of my children.
