Browsing friendship quotes this week, I found one that was not only true, but funny: "Friends come and go, like the waves of the ocean. True friends stay. Like an octopus on your face."
The Class of 2018 has been together, give or take a sprinkling of new faces, for more than a decade. Through potty-training, runny noses, epic fails on the sports field, facing their first Big Exams in senior primary and celebrating dozens of birthdays, you've stayed true to each other.
Friendship comes in all shapes and sizes. We can't all get along, every day, but what you, as a class, have proved, is that being part of a team is far better than going it alone.
Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu - a person is a person because of other people. Treasure the slideshow of your memories; and remember the people who were there to cheer you on (like loyal, sticky octopuses on your face).

Lovely memories, Morganfay! Thanks for posting these. Time flies when we are having fun, so it's important to enjoy each moment.
Thanks, Morganfay! I realise that having a conversation with myself is rather odd, to say the least, but this is a simple exercise in teaching the Grade 7s how to leave - and reply to - comments on a blog! Onwards and upwards.
And now, exit, pursued by a bear.
