  7. When Alexis was talking I learned that success is not a straight line it is all curly and swiggly. She told us to write everything we are scared of and everything we are comfortable with.

    On the 30th of MAY, 2019 Alexis Pritchard came to talk about things of her boxing career. She came to talk about how you can't give up when you start something new. She had us write down 1 thing we weren't scared to do and 2 thing we were uncomfortable doing. I learnt that when you want to succeed, it takes you a while to learn something.

    Blog you later!

    It was really cool to have a visit from Alexis Pritchard to come to our school. I learned from her you have to fail to go to success.

  21. Hi,
    What I learned from Alexis was that if you don't be brave and not take any risks you'll probably have a sad and boring life.
