Playing The Game One of the assemblies we had this year was presented by Mr. John Alston. The title of his presentation was Playing The Game . He emphasized how important it was to play the school game . By using stories of his life and stereotypes he made us realize how lucky we really are. Part of his message was also that ' we don ' t know how long we will be here . From this we were supposed to understand that since we have no guarantee as to the length of our lives, we should always try to do our best and to do it pleasantly, because it ' s easy to act like a jerk. 1.
