I wonder how many of you love challenges. I guess not so many children like being challenged. Today, I will assure you that challenges can sometimes be good.

There are different challenges that a child could face. It could be waking up in the morning to go to school or reading hard to pass your final exams.

Sometimes it can be something small like eating food. Did you know that some children find eating food so challenging?

When you are faced with a challenge, look at it as a way of becoming a better child. For example, if you do not feel like waking up, think about the lessons you will miss at school.

If you miss your class that means you cannot pass your exams because you will not know what to write!  

Look at the challenge of going to school as a way of achieving a brighter future. Besides, the holidays are always around the corner! You can play, have fun, rest and give your books a break!

So I will challenge all children to study hard and pass so that you can relax well during the holidays.
