Senior Syndicate Assemble 2/11/15

On Monday it was our senior syndicate assembly and Room 10 was hosting it. They had started with showing us there artwork about a book that they had read with creative pictures which they had drawn. Later on the whole senior syndicate were singing songs. Afterwards the teachers went up to present the students their certificate. We then clapped for them and left the multi-purpose room.

Extreme Fun At Rainbows End

Hair blowing roughly as I was ride the scariest ride there!

We finally arrived at Rainbows End and had to prepare what we were taking in like mobile phones, lollies and chips. About ten minutes later we walked through a light brown building and through the black long poles with white balls on the top. While walking through the entrance a young tall lady gave us our grey wrist bands so we could all go on the rides. Everyone was excited and didn’t know what ride to go on first so we talked for a few seconds and decided we’d go on the pirate ship.

On Saturday it was a windy but sunny day. The wind was blowing very strongly and blew us slightly over. The wind blowing through our hair and making it all messy.

My friend Jazmyn was very enjoyable and fun to be with. She has light brown hair,  hazel brown eyes and  likes to play basketball. She is thirteen years of age and goes to Pukekohe High.

At last the pirate ship had stopped we had gone and peered at what else we would go on. Next my sisters, brothers, friends and I went on the fear fall. As we were going down we were laughing but at the same time we were screaming. After the fear fall we were about to try the ppw stratosfear but my friend admitted we’d go on, so we waited in line for about 15 minutes. Then my friends and I jumped in a car and remained in our seat until the operators came. It was very enjoyable.

When we walked out we were chatting away. We all asked each other ‘‘Should we try the stratosphere?’’

We walked over to the stratosfear and hopped in line and there were about twenty people in front of us and the nice lady opened the gate and told us to show our wristbands. We jumped up on our seats and buckled up. 

Afterwards the operator checked our belts to make sure they were in.The machine started and we were spinning while going up and down. It was the scariest and most exciting ride there.

My family and I had loads of fun and wished that we could go once again.

Pt England Dress Rehearsal

Yesterday on Monday we enjoyed watching a Pt England rehearsal. Most of the Room 12 students went to watch the performance. Our school was one of the first schools to get there but then Glenbrae came as well as Puau school. When all the schools had settled down they slowly switched the lights off. They called the show Cindy in the House. We were laughing and giggling. The performance came to an end and we headed back off to school.

Thank you Myron Simpson

A few weeks ago a cyclist came and his name was Myron Simpson. He came in to talk to us about reading and how it is important. He also brought his very interesting bike, his training shoes, helmet and training suit. Myron showed us his new muesli bar business. After he talked to us a prefect from our class thanked him for coming.

Being Proud

Everyone crowded, pushing each other while trying to fit through our school gate. After all the pushing and bumping each other we finally made it through the front gate. During the time we were running we could feel the pressure and perspiration occurring on our bodies. Everyone cheering while coming through to the finish line, we felt relieved. At the end of the day we were all proud of ourselves and others who tried their best.

Places:

Mikayla at 1st place

Ofa at 2nd place

Miria and Elizabeth (tie) 3rd place

Good Luck For Inter school

Origami

For the past few Fridays we have been learning how to do origami for our Visual Arts. Mrs Golder chose three students to show every one how to make them. Students began with making butterflies and dinosaurs. Then they all had a go at making harder things on their own like rabbits, turtles, hearts and others. We were all proud that each and every one of us made one and completed it.

Daffodil Day

On Friday the 31st of August it was Daffodil Day. In the afternoon we had to go to a special assembly in the multiple purpose room. Most children in our school donated a gold coin to get a daffodil from Mrs Vickers.

Later that day we had to make  our own daffodils out of paper. Our teacher had to decide which daffodil was the best to be sent up to the office.
