Well, I know this is going to come one day; so I'm gonna see what to do now.

You know when you have whole school assemblies, and its like every student and teacher in one area, and the head is usually chatting about something, and then she moves on to awards for like attendance and stuff, well one day I know my names going to get called out and I'll have to go up infront of loads and loads of people all the way to front to get my award and stuff.

Before, in whole school assembelies previously when she has gone on about attendance, I've gone into such a nervous state and I can feel myself getting really hot and that. I just really dont want to go up; and now we've got a new head and she might do this every term and not at the end of the year

Any ideas on how I can like, go threw them easily?
Many thanks.

Ironically, be absent on the day you are claiming your attendance award.

Ha true, but I'm not 100% certain when the actual assemble is.

I think I'll have to skive off ill one day, and lose a 'point' on our schools system. The only thing is I wont get the end of term reward, but sod it I'd rather not get that then have to go up lol, sounds stupid as it only lasts for like 15 secs actually going up, but like a good few mins for the nervousness when she chats about attendance..

i used to be kinda like that.

you have to think to yourself; 'jesus, ALL im doing is walking to the front and collecting something just like everyone else is'

if you think hard enough it becomes clear that its nothing and it should be the least of your worries

good luck in sorting it all out

I have the same problem, I was once reading something from a bit of paper infront of the whole school and embarassingly I was going red and my voice pitch was slowly increasing.

i try to think 'no one actually cares what shes saying, all they do is clap when the teachers do', and also what you did, like thinking 'jesus christ all im doing is walking up and back..'

and @ apk. you must of had guts to do that.

Well you are probably like me - you don't like being the centre of attention.
Some people love the limelight but you are what you are. Honestly I used to be the same until I realised that they are not really looking at you at all - they are just clapping the next person up. Good luck
