This Member’s Statement was presented by Kelvin Parsons in the House of Assembly on December 3, 2008
MR. SPEAKER:
The hon. the Member for the District of Burgeo & LaPoile
MR. PARSONS: Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

I rise today to recognize and congratulate St. James’ Regional High, Port aux Basque on hosting a successful provincial leadership conference.

This was the nineteenth annual provincial leadership conference and this year’s theme was, Get a Grip on Leadership. The conference was attended by approximately 250 students from across the Province. All of these students are considered to be leaders at their respective schools.

During the conference, the students attended many information and learning sessions which they felt were very beneficial. The students acquired many new ideas from each other and from the classes and the guest speakers in attendance. The students also formed new friendships and are looking forward to next year’s conference.

Mr. Speaker, I ask all members of this House to join with me in extending congratulations to the students of St. James’ Regional High on hosting a successful provincial leadership conference. It was a job well done and you should all be very proud of your accomplishment.

Thank you.
