Arts Night
“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.” – Oscar Wilde.
Hi, my name is Hannah and I am currently an eighth grade
student. Throughout this show, you all have probably heard about showing your “true
colours” multiple times. After all, it is the theme of the entire performance.
But, what really does it mean to “show your true colours?” Being who you are,
who you really are, and not succumbing to the pressures of society is
difficult, and requires a great amount of courage. At the end of the day, we
all seek love and the sense of belonging. We change our personalities, the way
we dress, even out taste in music, in hopes of being accepted by our peers, [and]our
families. However, by being yourself you are already giving the greatest gift
of all. Embracing who you are and everything that comes with it is the first
step to welcoming others into your life. As Dr. Seuss once said, “Be who you
are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who
matter don’t mind.” I hope all of you, whether it be today, a month from now,
or in 10 years, will find and take pride in your true colours.
We would like to take the time to thanks everyone involved
in the performance:
Ms. Jacobs, Ms. Yap, Ms. Myers, Ms. Jankelow, Mr. Carlin,
Ms. Galpin, The Office and Caretaking staff, Ms. Bowman, Ms. Seehra, The CIA
student leaders, Ms. Matthews, Mr. Malarcyk (TC), Ms. Cantar (TC), Ms. David,
Ms. Armstrong, Daniel and Kamyar (slide show), Ms. Sagardia, Ms. McConkey, Ms.
Miller, Tech Crew, Ms. Steenburgh, all the student performers, and their
parents!
