June 22Hurrah it’s time to party, what a great day. I sat my last GCSE exam today, but on the other hand, pardon the pun, it was a very sad one, it was my last day at Belfairs High School. I will miss everyone, it has been fantastic and I will be back to encourage future Belfairians!

June 8thMy mummy and I were invited out for lunch by Rochford Rotary Club, we dined at Rochford Hundred Golf Cluband the venue was a fabulous Tudor building apparently the estate was a former home of Anne Boleyn. I would highly recommend a look if you ever get a chance. Hopefully we will be invited back again another day.

Your Nominated Charity: Jo-Jo Cranfield
Full Name of Charity: c/o Southend Round Table 106
‘Jo-Jo visited Sheringham Junior School as part of our Olympic Challenge Fortnight in July 2008. She spoke to groups of children throughout the school about her experiences as a top quality athlete. Jo-Jo engaged the pupils incredibly well, answering their questions with tremendous enthusiasm and honesty. She provided the pupils with an inspirational role model to aspire to, as well as giving them with a very positive example of physical disabilities can be overcome. The pupils at the school often ask about her, and I look forward to inviting her back to the school some time in the future’
“Jo-Jo is a remarkable young athlete who has enjoyed great success already in her career and seems certain to enjoy even more as she works towards her dream of taking part in the next Paralympics.”
