The scary way to school


                                                     A  scary way to school

There was a girl named Amelia, who lived in canada.She and her mother were living a very wild life.When Amelia was 8 years old her father passed away from cancer, so ever since then it was just her and her mother living together alone.


2 years had passed and she had turned  10 years old,Amelia and her mother had been having ruff times but then it kept on getting harder and harder.As Amelia’s mother had to put her daughter into school as it was illegal not to go and her mother didn't want to get into big trouble.The thing that had bothered Amelia and her mother is that Amelia had to risk her life on trying to get to the other side of the missing bridge(the bride had fallen down when there was a huge storm).On the day of  Amelia getting signed up to go to school her and her mother didn't really know how to get to the school but luckily they had bumped in to the man who own the ice cream shop.When they had bumped into each other the mother had said I am so so sorry do you know how to get to the otago primary school then the ice cream man Mike had catering told them how to get there.


As mike the ice cream man had said’’ so only one of use can go at a time’’ Oh no no what if my Amelia falls of or even slips off the mother had replied’’Mike had said’’ well then that is just bad luck ‘’ Bad luck her mother had replied.So then Amiliea and her mother madly stormed off down to the zip line so they could go to the interview for the otago school.Amelia volunteered to go first but her mother had said remember not to look down and to have more grip.When amelia had hopped on and rapped her legs around the zipline her mother had given her a big push and then Amelia was yelling yeah that's right ! 


But then she suddenly had stopped and when she had looked down there was a man the had been holding her from her legs to stop her then he had to go back on to the zip line to go and give it to Amelia’s mother.After her mother had sign Amelia up to  her new school they had gone home.Amelia was so happy to go to school because I get to make new friends and meet my teacher and learn more about my maths and learn how to read and write.When Amelia had furnished collage and graduated she had got a scholar ship to move to the UK and buy any house and clothes when Amelia and her mother had moved to the UK she had made her own business which turned out very impressive and then they had lived happily ever after.

Rainbow ends recount

 Yesterday on the 25th of November the year 7 of pt england school had went on a trip to Rainbow ends.Rainbow ends is a theme park with lots of super rides.In the morning all of the year 7’s had to share their bag with another person and then it was time to have a meeting of what behavior that we would need to have when we are at rainbow ends and what they expected.


Two of my favourite rides that I had went on was probably the spectator and the power surge because it would tip you upside down and spin you all around like you were in a fan that was on the maximum of the fan.The spectator was so much fun (but not when we had to wait in the long line) but then when me and my 4 friends had hopped on to the ride it had started raining sadly ,finally we were strapped into the seats the platform had gone all the way down and we went side-to side and then we had turned upside down instead of me screaming I was laughing.My Friend tonga was telling me to wiggle my face around and then when I nearly slipped out of the seat but i was holding on tight and i wasn't even that scared.


My favourite thing apart from the  rides was that I got lots of food, some hot chips,a drink. I also got a big fat ice cream that tasted like rainbow and that was the name of the ice cream.I had brought 2 drinks one for me and my best friend Leah.The food their was so so expensive like for a medium size lolly bag was$ 4.50 and the drinks where $5.50.The huge ice cream was $5.50 and I was like am I spending all of  my money the total of the food was $15.50.I gave two dollars to Leah because she had only brang $10 and spent $6 on cotton candy.Lorenzo was short on money to buy him a drink so I gave him 1 dollar.Ms Moala was so kind and generous that she had brought the kids in her group all an ice cream

immersion assembly report

 On Monday the 12th of October it was the first day back of term 4 we had an immersion assembly.A immersion  assembly is when we get told what the theme is for the term e.g Something in the water,and more.


So when all of pt england had all gotten all settled down, Mr Burt proudly had said ‘’We’re Back In The House ‘’ you must be asking yourself why is he saying that? Well the reason he said that is because it has been a long time since covid that we all could be gathered all together since it is level 1.So first Ms Nua, Mr Somerville, and Mr Jacobson had gotten up on stage with some paint in their hands and then they had been painting all of the children were very curious of what they were painting. And We finally had found out what the theme was: it was drumroll Please ART ALIVE!!


After all of that painting that the teachers had done

 Team 1: had introduced what they were learning about and they first tried to create some of the famous paintings such as The Monalisa, unibrow lady and such more, well that's what they are doing and going to be learning about. After Team 1 it was Team 2 to present what they are learning about/doing for art!.


Team 2: is doing art with shapes and different types of colours such as dark colours and bright colours. They’re also doing art on their i-pads, Mrs Gaston was colouring and drawing one of the teachers with dark and bright colours e.g  The bright colour was representing like a happy vibe, with the dark colour it was representing like a negative vibe. 


Team 3: is painting walls and also painting on sheets to create a their own painting using dyes and different colours of paints and mixing the different colours to see what  they make e.g red and blue makes purple


Team 4: They forgot to do their show/video to show to the whole school but luckily Mr goodwin had recorded their google meets so this Term they are learning more about maori patterns and the story behind them.


Team 5: We had done a show that Ms Moala had her first day at her work and she had to hide the people through the museum.So Team 5 is learning about all of the famous artists.

Camp #3

1. If you were to give ideas for next year 7/8 camp what would you suggest?Have choices to do thing.
2.What would you keep?

I would keep the murder mystery and the cup stacking because that is how people deiced to work together.
3.what would you stop?

I wouldn't stop anything because i think it would be fun and will bring the other yr 7's to be working together.
4.what would you add?I would add some trips so

5.why do we have such events?

We have these events so the year 7's can learn how to be leaders and how to step up and be role models for younger people.

My step up highlight

Last week their was a year 7 step up program at school Ms Illoa ,Ms Moala,and whea Kelly had set this program up so while the year 8's where at camp we had something to do.We had a couple of year 8's that had stayed back at school so they where now the teacher helpers.Their was 3 groups the name of the groups are Strikers,Duck life,Thunder.


My favourite thing about the year year 7 step up program is the cup stacking with Ms Illoa because we had to get into a group of 4 we had to make a castle.We had to run around the table and stack the cups in the shape of a castle and but them back into the place they where before.The other thing we had done was get a cookie and place it on our forehead and try and get it into your mouth without the help of your hands.

The reason I liked ,doing the cookie on your fore head and try getting it  your mouth is because you get to see the  other peoples funny faces and also you got to use your face musels. The cup stacking was hard and fun why because you had to try and not  knock down a cup or cups.

Captain reflection

This morning  we had a sharing time where the year 7 and 8 leaders from camp and the stepl up program got to tell us what their highlight was and  what they liked about  their team and if they had improved.
Here are 5 things that the year 8's had talked abut:
1.encouraging team member
2.scared so slept together
3.Gun shots at night
4.coming out of comfort zone
5.worked together

Here are 5 thing the year 7's had talked  about:
1. some people that are not captains but have  acted like one
2.Never giving up
3.cheering each other
4.communicating and make new friends
participating

Kio-rahi recount

This morning room 1 and 5 went outside
to the hard cort and played kio-rahi.Half of
room 1 versus half or room 5.


Half of room 1 went with Ms vaafusuaga and
the other half went with Tyson.There was a
yellow,green,pink,and purple team.I was in the
green team.There was a attack and defense
team.I was the ,defense so when our team got
the ball we ,had to touch two,bins and put it by
the tupu without getting our tags ripped off.


The first game was so competitive the pink
team was in the lead but then when the year
8 boys went to the meeting for camp.My Tea
started to win where the Team that had to
throw the ball at the tupu we got about 18
points and the other got 11.


For the second game we had to walk
over to the junior side because that was
where Ms vaafusuaga  set up her kio rahi.Ms
vaafusuaga court was smaller than Tyson’s.
Instead of having bins to tough it was the work
cones.I finally got to  get a try by touching one
of the cones with the ball.It was a tight match
but the other team won.

After I have played and experienced how to
play ki o-rahi the next time I play I am going to
spread out and try to rip the other teams tags off.
