HALLOWEEN !

2011-11-02T10:30:00.002+13:00

What is Halloween ?

Halloween is are thing that american people celebrate. People say that Halloween is a bad thing to celebrate because they think its satins birthday which i think is not true.

It was Halloween on Monday. But i didn't feel like going Trick or Treating like some of my friends from school. They was not much people that went Trick or Treating as people are getting older.

Hopefully ill feel like going next year.

Thinking activity

2011-10-26T10:20:00.006+13:00

This morning our class played are thinking game. Each group got given five items and one problem. So we had to figure out have we would find are solution to it ? Our question was to try and make more shade for the school. Our five items were are ladder, Ball, Shell, Rope and are towel. This is what we came up with . We had to find two tree's, Then we stuck the ladder between the to tree's and tied the ladder with the rope to the tree to keep it stable, And then we layed down the towel on top of the ladder and there you go now you have more shade.

It was fun and enjoying and i cant wait until we do it again. :)

here's are picture of our items and our question.

The last week or so ......

2011-10-05T09:04:00.005+13:00

For the last couple of weeks our year 7&8 have been very busy lately . The reason why is because we are getting ready for production. Every time there's production practice the students that are not in production got moved all over the place into different classes. Our teacher Ms Tito is in charge of our production group so we often get moved around a lot.

What our year 7&8 groups have been learning is are Percussion traditional tribal dance. Every night from 6 pm the people that are in production have to come back to school on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday night to preform. The reason they preform so many times is because they can only fit an minimum group of audience.

I hope everything gets back to normal again and because its the last week of term 3 i cant wait for school holidays "YAY" ! .

Last week the year 8 boys went down to Tauranga for the New zealand rugby 7's tournament. So all teams around New zealand went to fight for the New zealand championship. The year eight boys won all there games and the teams they versed hardly got to score any points. From the first game there points stared to get higher and heigher . We were very pround of the boys and what do you know the boys ended up to win the championship and became the New zealand rugby sevens champions. Gordon Tiegjens the rugby 7's coach always gave them some good advice .

Badminton lessons

2011-08-17T09:13:00.009+12:00

On Thursday the 4th of August Room 22 went to the hall for badminton. Badminton is a game played on court with light long-handle racket used to volley a shuttlecock over a net. When we arrived at the hall are lady named Lauren from the Auckland badminton club was waiting for us. We sat down and listen to her instructions when she was finished each one of us went and got a racket. We all had to get five shuttlecocks and then stand around the bin trying to get your five shuttles into the bin.

Our first activity was trying to control the shuttle. Controlling the shuttle was very hard trying to balance it by hitting it up and catching it again. We tried doing it that we learnt are couple of times and then we moved on to the next activity. Another activity we done was catch the shuttle. You had to get into pairs your partner would have a racket and you will be holding a cone your partner will hit the shuttle and then you will have to try and catch it with the cone.

What i really liked about Badminton was that everyone of us had fun and we all couldn't wait for the next time we were going to have badminton. My favorite activity that we learnt was catching the shuttle with the cone , another favorite of mine was shuffle . You had to go with your partner that you had before. Then we would just normally play tennis but with shuttles just hitting it to your partner and back .

It was really fun and i cant wait to do it again.

Our first league session

2011-07-12T10:06:00.003+12:00

This is a slideshow of what we did at our first league session.

Rugby League session

2011-06-23T10:28:00.004+12:00

Yesterday morning Sio Siua Taueiaho from the 2011 junior warriors came to Point England school to teach our seniors some rugby league skills. When we got to the counts and our teacher put our class into four groups. Once we got into our groups we had to line up behind one other. After Sio explained to us of what to do he gave each group a ball.

We did relays up and down the counts for a few time. Our first game was called in and out what you had to do was try run as fast as you can Sig sagging thought the cones and the last person in your group why ever gets back first and sitting down wins. We played another game similar
to the first game but you had to Sig sag around your team members. After that person comes back and scores a try then the person at the back of the line will come to the fort then it will be they turn.

The next game we played was kick tennis. We joined group to play this game so that it could be even. You had to kick the ball to the opposite team and the other team had to try and couch the ball if you run away for you ball you are out if you kick it to high or to far and it goes out of the cones the your out. At the end of our rugby league session i was already tied but i really enjoyed it i can’t wait till next time.

Science roadshow

2011-06-16T10:00:00.003+12:00

On Thursday the 9th , the year 7 & 8’s went down to Tamaki collage to watch the science roadshow. The reason why we went to the science roadshow is because it was part of our topic for the term. Before we left school our teacher Ms Tito put us into groups of six. We had to walk in our groups down to Tamaki collage. Once we got there the science roadshow had already started we quietly sat down with the rest of the student .

The people that were talking to us names were Paul and Jane. The thing they talked to us about was our senses like how we see and how we feel things. After that we got to go and play with some of the exhibits . Some of the exhibits were scary but some you just did’t know what to do.

One of my favourite exhibits was Quirky Curiosities. When you go to that exhibit you have to look through this pipe and there is a rocking chair. But when you turn the light on you can see a skeleton. But really it is just a ghost skeleton.

Overall it was really cool and I hope we can go the Science Roadshow again , or i could be one of those presenters presenting my work for other people.

Swimming

2011-06-08T10:38:00.003+12:00

Every second term, year 7 & 8 go down to the Y.M.C.A pools for swimming lesson. All the seniors go down to the pools everyday for half an hour but Fridays for two weeks. I didn't go swimming for that whole two weeks as i didn’t feel like swimming. Every After lunch times we all head down to the pools altogether ready and lined up .

When we got to the pools and the people that were swimming had to get change and jump in the showers before getting into the pool. What i had to do was write lines because i didn’t bring a note for my reason why i wasn’t swimming . When i finished doing my lines i got to watch some of my friends swim.

When there finished swimming we all walked back to school and came back to class hopping next time i will remember to bring my togs or a note .

Design Process

2011-06-08T09:15:00.000+12:00

In room Twenty two we a making signs for our school. We are trying to help our school by stopping people from littering. We have something called a design process. In the design process we are up to generating ideas. Generating ideas is all about thinking of what kind of shape or colour your going use to create in your sign. You have to think of what your going to make it out of, you can use Metal, Card broad, Plastic and other different materials. It’s very important to have more then one idea because if your first idea doesn't work out then you can go back and fix it.

Another important thing is when you create your sign. It’s important because you have to make your message clear about what your on about. When we create our sign I want to create my sign out of metal because if it rains I don’t need to make another one.

Geometry

2011-05-23T14:15:00.009+12:00

In room 22 what we have been learning about in maths is Geometry.
Geometry is the study of size, shape and position of two dimensional shapes and three dimensional figures.

What we have been doing so far is drawing 2 dimensional shapes and 3-D figures in our books. We are also learning how to draw perfect circles with the compasses and make our own Tangram from scraps of paper.
At first i didn't know what Geometry was but now that i know I really like doing Geometry.

Hopefully next time we do Geometry we get to do more fun stuff.

Taonga Time

2011-05-18T09:24:00.007+12:00

Every Friday’s our year 7’s and 8’s have something called Taonga time .
Taonga is a Maori way of saying treasure . The reason why we do Taonga time is so that we can learn different passions of our teachers . Every term we change around and because its only the second term we haven’t been doing it for that long .

At the moment the groups are Kapa Haka , Sports , Music , Team building .The group that i am in now is Kapa Haka my teachers name is Ms Tito . For the people that don't know what Kapa Haka is, Kapa Haka is a Maori performance . We learn new song and actions we and we also get to go out and perform at different places .

I really like being in Kapa Haka because you get to go places and perform but mostly because all my friends are in it . I cant wait till its Friday again .

First netball session

2011-05-16T14:17:00.003+12:00

A couple of week ago room 22 went out to the courts to learn some Netball skills with a lady named Emma .

She taught us some of her dynamic stretches they were high-knees , bum-flick and the gape-vine .

She asked us to get into two groups and line up behind the yellow line facing the other person standing on the opposite side .

I really enjoyed playing and doing the skills she taught us .
But sadly we lost agents the other team. I cant wait till we have another netball session .

Creative Names

2011-05-05T12:56:00.003+12:00

This term we are learning about creativity . Creativity is like creating something different that has never existed before , or making something with your own imagination . Our teacher Ms tito gave us a project . This i what it looked like after it was finished .

Term One Reflections

2011-05-05T09:26:00.007+12:00

Last term when I got given my report I was pleased about my result for art . I got good in work habits , behaviour and academic progress .

The thing I want to improve on this term is my homework . Mostly because last term I didn’t hand it in on time . So this term my goal is to stay focus and always hand in and finished work on time .

But after all my term ended out to be pretty good . Hopefully when I get my another report it wont be as bad as my first one .

FIA FIA NIGHT

On Thursday the twenty third of September Point England school had a huge performance night. Everyone had a choice to be in a group they were lots of different groups like glee,Island groups,Hip hop and more. On the performance night I was so scared because I was one of the leaders in the Niuean group. Once you get on the stage you just wanna jump off because everyone is just looking at you and its scary. Some people didn't come. After we finish performing we Weren't Aloud to go into the hall we had to stay in our waiting rooms Until our parents came to get us because on Friday we had to do it again so everyone could see everyone proforming and it was the last day of school so that made it even better.
