Last Day of School, 2013

Today was our last day for School this Year. We did lots of fun stuff this year like playing and learning lots of new Kiwisports,Swimming in the Swimming Pool and having lots more fun. My favourite thing we did this year was Going to the Manaiakalani Film Festival because you got to watch and learn new stuff by watching a Movie. The other thing I like about the Manaiakalani Film Festival was that I was a presenter for my classes Movie with Alecia. I am going to Miss 2013 because this was one of the most funniest and most happiest years that I have ever been involved in. But this year there was some bad news we were going to miss one of our most important teachers Miss Gleeson, (Miss G). This year was a highlight of my life. I am going to miss 2013.

Bigfoot vs Mark Hunt Result

The Mark Hunt vs Bigfoot Silva fight was one of the best UFC fights of all time. Both fighters bleeding having cuts and looking munted. The Result after the fight was a draw which I wasn't expecting.

UFC Showdown Brazil vs NZ

                                                      

Can't wait until the UFC because 2 New Zealanders will be fighting Mark Hunt and James Te Huna. They will be versing 2 Brazilian fighters, Antonio Big Foot Silva and Shogun Rua. Mark Hunt's fight is the main fight for the Heavyweight title. James Te Huna' fight is for the Light Heavyweight which he is versing Shogun Rua. I reckon the 2 Brazilians are going to beat the 2 New Zealanders.

Netbook Refelction :-)

From the beginning of this year I was excited to be able to be given a netbook as a learning tool throughout the year. When I first had my netbook I didn’t understand anything about my Netbook, but now I am getting used to it. My teacher has helped me on my netbook and information and helping me understand stuff online.

Using a netbook is different than using a book because we do most of our work online. To get access to our work we go to our Google Drive where all our work is kept. When we have completed our work we post it to our individual blog where each student posts their stuff.

Using a netbook now is much easier than before. It is very cool to be able to use a Chromebook.

Cultural Day

I was so nervous because today was our Cultural day.

On a lovely morning the Senior Syndicate was going to attend Mass which is looking at Diversity. Diversity was the Topic for the whole day. During the Mass one person from all the countries they had been studying carried their flag up and placed it down on the Altar.

After our Mass we went to our classes and went to get a pencil and went to Room 7 to assess them. My Group Peru and Room 6’ s group Indian were assessing United Kingdom. I reckon United Kingdom did really good. My Group Peru had to mark Spain because Room 7 had 5 groups. I reckon Spain was the best groups of all the Room 7 groups.

After morning tea had finished it was my groups turn first. When my group had finished I felt very proud of our group. My favourite presentation in my class was Brazil because they were well organized and learnt there parts off by heart. I never knew that Lansanah was a traditional food.

Straight after my class had finished presenting we had to go to Room 6 to assess them. My group was assessing the first group, India and they presented well. I never knew that Indian’s speak in Hindi. I really liked China’s presentation because they told us about the Great Wall of China. The Great Wall of China is the only seen landmark from Space. I reckon Room 6 were organised well.

After Lunch we were going to perform our dances we have practised for many weeks. First was United Kingdom. United Kingdom was going to perform a famous Nursery Rhyme from England called London Bridge is falling down. It was a fun Nursery Rhyme because it made us want to dance. After United Kingdom was Germany and they were performing a Traditional Dance. It was funny because they did it in partners and I could tell that they were nervous. My favourite Dance or song that Room 7 performed was the United Kingdom’s Nursery Rhyme called London Bridge is falling down.

I was getting nervous because we were going to perform our dance after Room 7 had finished performing. Our Dance was a South American Carnival Dance. We were dancing with a partner, my partner was Petra. I really enjoyed the Carnival Dance because it made you want to have a little boggy by yourself. Miss G told us to bring clothes to dance in for our Dance. The girls had to wear a skirt and a t-shirt, the boys had to wear long trousers and a t- shirt as well. After we finished performing our dance one of Room 6’s groups India did a cool dance because the Indian music matched the dance moves. After India was Thailand, I could tell the Thailand felt embarrassed. My favourite dance in Room 6  was China’s dance which was a dragon dance.

It was a very entertaining day and lots of reports about other countries. It was a fun Cultural Day.

Manaiakalani Film Festival 2013

“I could feel the nerves in my stomach, the nerves were getting worse” .

On Wednesday the 13th of November we were be going to the Manaiakalani Film Festival. I was so excited because I was going to be a presenter with Alecia for my classes Movie. Finally we arrived at Sylvia Park. We were going to be attending the morning session. The Schools that were attending the morning session were Glen Innes and St Pius. First Mr Coakley did the Introduction. Me and Alecia were going to be the first ones to present our movie ‘Success’.  So when we were standing on the stage we could hear screaming as we were in place. It was fun presenting because this has been the first time presenting.

Then we saw Samantha and Fiapo presenting Room 1’s and 2’s movie about Te Reo Maori. Their movie was cool learning and understanding the colours in Maori. My favourite Movie in our theatre was Lookdown by Room 6 because it was very funny. There was one part where Leki shot the ball at the hoop and it went down the hill. Mr Slade had their Basketball and freaked out Leki and Simione. Then Miss G told us that we had to go to the Extreme Big Screen theatre where Panmure Bridge, Stonefields and Glenbrae were so we could present our movie there too.

I was so amazed how big the screen was compared to the last theatre’s screen. I was so excited because I really enjoy presenting our movie. When we got up on the stage a few people shouted out my name in the crowd. It was so cool the people knew my name in the crowd, that made me confident. Miss G told us that we were going in the other theatre again, this was the last time we were going to present until the Evening session. I was happy because we were presenting the last time in the morning session because it was a long day for Me and Alecia, we stayed there for about 3 hours morning till lunch time. I was glad Mr Coakley said “ We are going back to School now”. We arrived at school at it was nearly lunch time.

Finally it was the night session. Me and Mum headed of to the Sylvia Park Hoyts to attend the night session. When we got there we had to meet up with Miss G. We were waiting for a long time for Miss G. Finally Miss G arrived at Hoyts and she said that I was presenting the Sommerville Movie as well also Alecia had to present for them also. We had to wait for the other presenters to arrive. Then all the presenters stayed with Miss G to get ready to go in the theatre because it was going to begin soon.

Finally we started to go in the theatre and get in order to present. I was getting nervous because there were heaps of people in the audience. When everyone in the crowd settled down it started to begin. Me and Alecia were the first ones up. While we were saying our parts a few people from the audience shouted our names out, that made me confident on the stage. When it came to my next part I was the only one. I was presenting for Sommerville Special School, their Movie was called ‘Change’ it was about being good when they are having a reliever in your classroom. Not long after that Alecia presented for Sommerville, the movie she was presenting was ‘Our Dog Meg’ it was about their Pet Dog Meg and how they treat Meg.

My favorite Movie in the Night Session was Faith and Harmony, ‘Friends’ because it was a Music Video. That was a long Night Session, I was so tired.

Squash!!

“I am so excited to learn the new sport that we are going to learn, I wonder what it is?”

On the first day of school on term 4 we were going to be learning a new sport, the new sport we were going to learn was squash. We were having squash in our school hall. When we arrived at the hall we saw to instructors.
When we all settled down the instructors introduced themselves there names were Michael and Phil. I really was looking forward to squash because it looked really fun but Michael told us that they were going to be teaching us squash for only 3 days I was hoping that they were going to stay to teach us squash for longer so we could be good at it.
Michael told us that the real squash court was three times bigger than the squash court that they brought in and the ball was smaller and harder and very bouncy. I was so impatient to play squash.

The best women and men player in 2013 are Nicol David and Ramy Ashour. Squash is going to participate in the Olympics on 2016 in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil.
The sport of Squash was invented in the 1800s. Squash was invented in a school in England called Harrow School because they had racquets and at the school they were hitting the ball onto the wall, so it is similar to squash.
Women normally wear a short skirt and T-shirt or a sport dress and men normally wear comfortable shorts and T-shirt and a bandana to suck all the sweet up from dripping.

As we were going to go into squash Michael and Phil gave some Registration forms for squash so if we wanted to play and to learn some more rules we were going to be allowed to join squash at Panmure Lagoon Stadium. In our lesson we were going to play a new game the game was called King of the court. I couldn’t wait to play it. Phil told us that we could pick out of 5 squash courts or you could go in the practise court.

I was in court number 1 that court was the main court and it also had a back wall so we could use the back wall to hit it on the front wall. My first opponent was Seuati and I beat him. Michael said that he was going to time us for 6 minutes a round and the two highest point scores stay in that court and the three lowest go down to the other court. Me and Rachel stayed in the same court and we were waiting for the other 3. My highest score on squash was 15 which is heaps. The first game I had  was against Rachel and she beat me and she had 1 point. But luckily when the round was finished I won with 11 points. Then the next opponents were Misiotei and Tokilupe. I won again with 12 points but Misiotei was quite good scoring 7 points against me which is quite good. Then Michael said that this was going to be the last round of King of the square. The people in my square were Rachel, Me, Kalolaine and Ma’ata.

When time was up I scored the most points I scored 15 points. But I really wanted to go to the other stations because I justed stayed in court 1 for the rest of the lessons. When Michael told us that the time was up we all sat down and Michael and Phil had a question for us the we had to research the question was who is the best women and men the answer was Nicol David from Malaysia for the best women and Ramy Ashour from Egypt for the men. When it was the end of the lesson I was sad because I really enjoyed squash it was a cool sport to play and it is good exercise to keep you fit.

Last day of the Holidays :-)

Today was a fun day because we went to Youthtown Central in the city. Youthtown Central is a bigger Youthtown than our one Panmure and also Central was the first Youthtown. When we got to Central we were told that we were having a Competition against 3 other teams from Central because they had a lot of people and they had to split them up. The first Activity we did was to design our own Youthtown Panmure banner for the Competition, it was fun. Then when we finished doing our banner we were told that the next one was the hardest one out of all of them. When we got to the Next Station we had to get into 2 groups one group was making a Crane and the other group was making a Marble course. We finally completed it which proved that we worked together and had Teamwork. When it was lunch time we got to have a swim in their pool and they were to going to put a course we could do in the pool. I did the course it was so easy. But sometimes I fall into the water. Today was a fun day to celebrate the Last day of the Holidays.

Most Talented Day Ever :-)

Today was one of the best day ever because the theme today at Youthtown was celebrities and rockstars. I was dressed up as Chris Brown because he is a good dancer and a good singer to. When I got to Youthtown there was one girl dressed up as Beyonce and another girl that was dressed up as Selena Gomez. When I saw everyone there was one boy as PSY the Gangnam Style Singer he looked cool. When we had our meeting we were going to make our own Magazine Cover. I was making a Magazine cover but first we had to take a photo of ourselves so It can be as the background of our Magazine cover. For Cooking we had some biscuits with Chocolate it was delicious that I wanted to eat it all. We were also going to look forward to our own Youthtown's Got Talent.When it started we were acting like it was a real show. My favorite audition was The Dougie because everyone got to go on the stage and Dougie. So when we got called to come up I was doing the Dougie and they said I was one of the best.

Looking forward to a Fun Day :-)

What a Cool Day :-)

Today was a cool day because the theme of the day was Africa Safari and we got to decorate stuff that match up with it. I made a African hat and Binoculars. The First thing we did was playing Cricket/Soccer. Cricket Soccer is just like Cricket but you add some skills of Soccer. So in Cricket/Soccer you use a Soccer ball instead. Then you bowl or throw the Soccer Ball and they have to kick the ball. If they kick the ball you have to run to a base and back. If you kick the ball and someone else catches the ball you are out. After we finished playing Cricket/Soccer we had morning tea. After morning tea we started to make our African Hat and our Binoculars after we finished making them the Staff decided who had the best things. I was happy because I was a tie with another boy because my Hats were one of the best. I had a very cool day.

The Best day at Youthtown :-)

Today was a very fun day because we were playing lots of fun games. The first game we played was Touch Rugby I was very good at playing it. When we were told to go in the Activity Zone we were told to get into pairs an that we were going to make or if you would you could design your Pizza with your partner. I was with my best friend there Zach me and him used the ingredients of Pepperoni, Cheese Ham, Tomato Sauce, Tomato and Chicken. After the Pizza were cooked we got to eat it I thought that our Pizza was delicious. So when it was lunch we could play in the Gym we were playing Dodge ball. Dodge ball was fun for me because no one called get me out. Then when we were finish playing Dodge ball all of us went to the Park on Tripoli Rd. When we got back from the Park we were going to have a meeting. Everyday we have a Star of the Day and Word of the Day. I was Word of the Day because the word of the day was respect and the Staff thought that Ii was showing respect and acting like a role model.So after the meeting was finished we were watching a movie and I was coloring people's hair with Hair Chalk it was kind of fun just coloring people's hair. Then just before I left my friend Zach did my hair into green it looked cool.
