Title- Going to Wellington

Audience- Ambassadors

In 2013 I was so lucky to be one of our school Ambassadors. Ambassadors are people who represent a current thing or place. And being one of them was amazing. We spoke to many important and wonderful people. For example we spoke to....

-Mr John Key  (Prime Minister of NZ)

-Minister of Education

-Alfred Ngaro

-I.R.D. (Inland Revenue Development)   

etc.

After all our hard work. One of the visitors we spoke to really enjoyed us so she decided to pay our tickets to Wellington. When we went to wellington we got to speak to the I.R.D.

Persuasive Writing.

I believe that Pt England Year 8 students should attend Tamaki College. Tamaki College is a superior college. It’s close therefore it save you time and petrol, because these days petrol is starting to get really expensive. Tamaki College has improved NCEA results.Their teachers are very inspirational too.

If you are a pupil who wants to attend High School with your netbooks I recommend that Tamaki College is the option for you, as it is part of the Manaiakalani Cluster who uses netbooks (Digital Learning) for you to use instead of paper and pencil. The uniform is beautiful and I'll sure I will look fancy in that, (also you too)!

Second reason, they are so kind we even go over  on Tuesdays and also Thursdays for Technology. There are four classes we attend at tech (Short for Technology) there is Music, Hard Materials, Cooking and also Graphics. They can provide a great education for you and also can create memories of a lifetime. Do you think any other schools can give all of this to you?

Conclusion-

It’s hard to argue with Tamaki College, because they are just the best of the best. That’s why T.C. (Tamaki College) is the one for me and you! So enrol now for Tamaki College.  

Recount - Grandpa Coming over.

Waking up with excitement I knew today was the day! My Grandpa is coming from Australia. He is only staying here for about a week or two. Suddenly goosebumps started to appear slowly down my arms..

I jumped out of bed and quickly got ready as my family and I were making our way over to my aunt’s house.

Once we arrived there I quickly got out of the car to spread the word to my cousin’s. After a while I heard he is arriving tonight.

I was then filled with disappointment knowing it’s going to be hours and hours until he comes. It was finally time, so my aunty and uncle went to the Auckland Airport to collect him..

Watching T.V. to keep me awake I smelled something..... it was my Grandpa’s favorite all time gel. Then I knew he was here. I quickly ran out like the wind and once I was out I saw him still coming out so there was my chance. I then wrapped my arms around him. It’s been about 1-2 years since I have seen him. I saw he had a big bag in his left hand. I thought “Yes we got presents”. After he was seated down he open his bags and I noticed he has a gift. It wasn’t for me,my sisters or my cousins. But for my Dad. My dad got brand new shoes (Sneakers the colour Black and white) and also a LG touch screen mobile phone.... (“With a front camera!”) My dad was so lucky.

Having my Grandpa back here in New Zealand with his family was the best thing. I made the best of my ability to spend every time with him before he went back.  

Article - Letter from the Bully!

Living a life experiencing bullying became an everyday routine to person named Chad Michael Morissette. Back in the day when he attended Junior High, he became a victim of bullying. About 5-7 boys from the school football team would torment him each day for the the whole school year.

He says the reasons why this took action was because he has same gender love relationship and also because he was small and bullied for all possible reasons. Now at the age of 34 he has moved on from that horrible nightmare.

Having been bullied in the past really affected his life in a way that he had all this but not just him but also one of the bullies. 20 years after from being a part of bullying he had stopped thinking about it.   

Scrolling through facebook one day a notification popped up. He received a message, it said something like this......

Hey Chad,

I was recently talking with my 10 year old daughter about bullies. She asked me if I ever bullied anyone and sadly I had to say yes. What came to mind was how mean I was to you when we were in Jr. High. I want to apologise. If we lived in the same state I would apologise face to face. I don’t know if you remember, but I do and i’m sorry.

- Bully

Chad found the message touching and moving. It brought up a subject he has thought of in quit a long time. He accepted the apology saying something like this...

Thank you for your apology. I was quite moved by it, it even brang tears to my eyes knowing that you really don’t want to be part in the bullying scene anymore. Back when we were in Junior High out of all the other 5-7 boys you are the only one who apologised. It’s amazing what 20 years and children can do to us, no? I hope you can be an amazing role model to your daughter and when you see bullying you stand up to it. Have a great!

- Chad.

It goes to show that it is never too late to ask for forgiveness.

Time with Friends

! F R I E N D S !

When the clock struck 11.30am the whole senior block rushed there way quickly back to the street. Once we arrived there everyone was up on their feet ready for an adventure. We were going to do the amazing race@I could see the excitement in some people’s eyes. Others, well they had a mixture of emotions for e.g: nervousness.

As soon as we finished changing, we were back in class ready to know what groups we will be in. When I found out what group I was in I was more than just happy I was energised. I got put together with my best friend Lizara and also my fellow peers Jalen and Damien.  

Our first station was the Photo Booth where we had to dress up as funky as we wanted and then pose in front of the camera with specific poses.  The moral of that station for me was to be as creative you can be with whatever we had around us.... and also to test and exercise our posing skills.

The time I had with my group at the Photo Booth Station was amazing. Not only did we work fine together but we got to know each other more better.

In each stations we went to there was a time maximum and that time was only ten minutes. And because we only had ten minutes we had to rush to our stations because not only do we get points for the work we did but we also get arrival points.

Well, my group we all wanted to win because losing for us was not a good feeling. The feeling of losing is like... well for me it is indescribable. But no one likes losing. And because of these thoughts this is what motivated us to work better together.

Next we came to the Face Cookie station. My first impression of this station just by appearance was that we had to see who could eat the most cookies. But no! I was wrong. We had been given a cookie and when we were already we had to place the cookie on the top of our forehead. The aim of this game was to try and make the cookie got into your mouth without making it drop or using any body parts apart from your face.

I am not going to lie it was hard, so hard that I didn’t even get it once in my mouth. I got so frustrated that I wanted to give up. But if I gave up then I would have let my team down knowing that I could and can do better.

That experience was fun. It was fun because we played games and because I worked with my friends. Our relationship between each other grew stronger and I am happy that I got to share that experience with them.

What should Mr Santa do?

Once upon a time there was a Christmas Farmer named Santa. He lived in the East Pole. As a Christmas Farmer he had too look after reindeers only in the Christmas holidays. One Christmas Eve Santa ran out of cookies and milk. He needed to go to the Supermarket to by some more. But wait... Santa didn't have a car and all transportation companies were closed for the Christmas holiday. So there was no way Santa could go to the Supermarket.      

Until 1 of his reindeers spoke to him. That reindeer said "Mr Santa why don't you ride on us", Santa replied saying "On you reindeers, hohoho Santa laughed are you out of your reindeers mind". Santa walked of laughing.

As he was walking Cindrella's Fairy Godmother poped up! And spoked to Santa saying " Mr Santa these reindeers are the only way you can go to get your milk and cookies". Santa doesn't know what to do? What do you think Santa should do, ride on the reindeers he dosen't know or trust or have a Christmas Eve without cookies and milk? It up to you finish the story!

Term 4 Immersion Assembly!

Walking into the hall for immersion assembly I had a sense of excitement inside of me. Not knowing what we were going to expect. The assembly kicked off with Team 1.

This term team one was  learning about how habitats at the zoo adapt to their environment. In others words, how animals at the zoo survive. Animals like lions, tigers, monkeys, giraffes, elephants and etc. Team 1's teachers we dressed up as zoo keepers. Later on in the term they are going to visit the Auckland Zoo for more details.

Following up next was Team 2 then 3. Team 2 and 3 were both learning about dinosaurs. On subjects like how they lived,  how they would catch predators and the reason they were extinct. Team 3 were going to invent their own dinosaurs. It sounded like they were in for an adventure.

My favorite Team was team 4. Why? Well because their movie was very humors. It made me and the whole school laugh. It was a movie with some kids going on a world safari. But there was a catch?.... The kids that were participating didn’t know where they were and what was behind them. It had the audience hooked in. It was very entertaining.

Now that the term has began I am very interested in learning about Adaptation and how to survive, outwit, outsmart and outlast. I am super super excited.

What is poetry?

For me Poetry is a world when things you say or write can really touch someone in a way that makes them understand what you are trying to say or share.

It’s sort of like a sharing world, yeah you can put it that way, (A Sharing World). When you can share your thoughts and dreams and make them into a journey for others to join or a story to inspire

Poems can be about feelings or about events or more. For me when I think about the main subject that people usually write about is mostly about love. 

-    -    -    -    -    -    -    -

How I receive and spend money.

How I receive and spend money...

Money. Money is something we now use for nearly everything. When I say everything I mean like food, clothes, houses, cars and etc.

I receive money heaps of different ways like from Birthdays, Weddings, Christmas, Family reunions and also umpiring. Did you know that I am a netball umpire. I receive $10 dollars each game I umpire.Also another way i get money is from doing my chores. I get payed maybe $5 or even $2. It makes chores more fun, kind of in a way.    

-What I do with my money?

When I get money I am half and half. I save half of it and spend the other half. I would spend it while going shopping and also on food. When I spend my money I use it all, without thinking about if I really need these things I am buying or can this money go toward things that are either helpful or important, like charity’s and etc.

From now on I am going to be more wise about my money. Even if it’s just a dollar. I first have to think of my wants and needs. What I really need or want. So when I grow up I don’t always have to depend on loans. So if i am wise with money it is never going to run out.
