Each of us had to write a letter to a year 7 kid today  :o
I'm guessing you're a Year 12?

Yeh
Haha so what sort of stuff was in the letter? We had a buddy type system at my school where Yr 12s helped out the young ones.

Torp did you receive a letter from a Yr 12 kid today?
No I didn't PB, I couldn't think of anyone else a Yr 12 would write a letter to.

The teachers had to 'approve' of each letter before you gave it in - So just a bunch of sappy shower about how we're their friend and able to help them out with anything they need. Also encouraged them to get involved with either sports or music etc

Nice gesture I guess but the kids will obviously know it doesn't mean much when they realise each letter has the same two paragraphs at the start and end (we were only allowed to write the middle paragraph)

Got an early round offer last year which  i deferred from La Trobe for Sports Journalism.

Hoping to get a Sports Management and Business offer either soon or just wait until next year.
