Realizing your potential

Hello, everyone! Welcome to senior high school! Today is the start of a new

term the start of a three-year journey and the start of a promising future.

I can’t wait to describe to you what senior high school life is like. The path

before you leads to a world full of challenges: a new environment, new knowledge

and new ways of thinking. However, for those of you with a positive mind,

opportunity lies in each challenge. When you rise to the challenges, you will have

the opportunity to acquire great knowledge and enjoy personal growth. Most

importantly, your time and effort at senior high school will open the door to your

potential.

“What is potential?” you may ask. Put simply, potential is your natural ability

that can be developed when you try hard enough. Who knows what beautiful

works of art you will create, what medical advances you will make or what amazing

technologies you will develop. The possibilities are endless, and I have confidence

in your ability to make a difference to your family, to your community and to our

country. Over the next three years, you will discover your potential while you

develop as a student and as a person.

To fully realize your potential, it is important for you to make the most of our

school resources. Take advantage of your classes, learn from your teachers and

classmates, and make use of our school facilities. There are also a lot of school

activities for you Join a club or two, and take an active part in different sports.

Of equal importance are good study habits, useful skills and a positive attitude.

Carefully plan your study, set clear goals and balance your schoolwork with other

activities. As a senior high school student, you must make efforts to improve your

communication and problem-solving skills. Last but not least, always look on the

bright side and never lose hope, even in difficult situations. In time you will find

yourself growing into a well-rounded individual.

As Lao-Tzu wisely said, "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single

step. You need to make a continuous effort to train your mind and develop your

character. Senior high school will help you learn and grow, yet you alone are

responsible for realizing your great potential. Be confident, do your best and make

us proud!
