Ron Hoenig MP with Hossion Ali |
What a delight it was to
return to my old primary school, Daceyville Public School for the annual
presentation day. Such talented students performed so impressively. Daceyville
has such a wonderful reputation. The performances of its school band, which
commenced more than 4 decades ago is well known all over Sydney. Over the years
its school band has performed in so many places in Sydney and even Norfolk
Island. The band’s performance today certainly lived up to its reputation. The
school’s music talent was on display with performance of its choir and dance
with very proud parents looking on.
Returning to your old
school holds so many special memories. I always take the opportunity to look at
my old classrooms that seemed so large when I was a student, and seem so small
to me today.
Ron Hoenig MP addressing the students |
At Daceyville its all its
staff take pride in providing children with, as they correctly say; “…a depth and breadth of educational
opportunity. This takes place in a dynamic, innovative and caring learning
environment, focused on achieving high levels of success for every child.”
It was pleasing to see so
many community representatives present; particularly my good friend, Federal
Member for Kingsford Smith, Matt Thistlethwaite and Botany Bay Deputy Mayor George Glinatsis.
I was also delighted to
present Year 6 student Hossion Ali the Ron Hoenig MP Outstanding Leadership Award for 2013. Hossion has been a wonderful
role model for his fellow students, always leading by example.
