Kiwi-Sport = TOUCH!! #2
Today for touch it was our coaches last day with so we will be getting a different person next week.We started practice with a game which was very hard (in my opinion) and did some warm-ups. When we started to actually play it started to very intense and I was getting more and more competitive by the minute.
Like every other lesson, I had a lot of fun and I have learnt a lot in each lesson.

Sailing With Volvo
On the morning of November 12th 2015, Room 7 went to Kohimarama beach in the the city, I had a great experience and a great time…
Once I got to school we started to get in the van and enjoy the ride that was coming ahead of us. While we were in the van we started to take photos and listen to music on my phone. We eventually got to our destination we saw the sails parked next to each other on a balcony. Our instructor’s name was Ruben and he taught us how to set up the Sail and how to control it. By the time we got in the water we had our life jackets and rain jackets on, it was very uncomfortable but I managed to get used to it.
We split in half so the other half went in the boat first while the others stayed on the Beach. I had a lot of trouble getting in the boat and controlling but I suddenly I got the hang of it . While I was on the sailboat I looked back at the beach and saw Sonya waving, “Bye Aurora” she yelled. I started chuckling and turned back around and continued having a fun time. I felt the wind blowing my hair and the little splashing caused by my boat. When I reached back to the beach Sonya and the other group was waiting patiently for the partners to come back. After everybody had 2 turns each, Mr. Slade said we had to have Lunch and head back to school.
Our instructor said the girls can get changed in the trailer while the boys get changed at the back of the Sail House on the balcony. When everybody had finished changing we had our lunch and I started making small talk with the girls and making some videos with them. While we were eating Ruben our instructor gave out certificates, “You were probably the best group I had” he stated. After a little while we saw the School van pull up and the next group came and I started running up to my best friend Ierei.
They started gearing up and we started getting in the van, but there was a slight problem. Justin and Paul couldn’t fit in the van so Mrs. Jeeney rang Mr. Coakley to pick them up and we drove away and went back to school.
I had so much fun Sailing and the best part was we didn’t have to go with partner and I also had fun playing on the beach and making Sandcastles. This was so far the best day of the week.

PAT Maths Test
Today's test was very overwhelming because maths is one of my weakest subjects in school.
I was so frustrated when I was doing the test because it was getting harder by the minute but I tried my VERY BEST.
When I finished the test I was very happy because it was finished.
I hope I did well.

Kiwi-Sport = TOUCH!!!
Today was my first day of Kiwi sport and this term it is ‘Touch.’ I wouldn't consider myself fan of sport but I’m okay with this sport because it is fun.
When we first started I didn't know what to do but in the end I got the hang and it was really fun. I felt really ecstatic when I played because I did some exercise and had a good time.

Wedding Shopping
Sunday the 11th of October was the last day of the school holidays and the day that I went wedding shopping with the bride and my mum.
Before we left we had a divine breakfast then we left for our journey. Firstly we drove all the way to Takanini to pick up heart shaped soaps for the guest that are coming to the wedding. After picking up the 180 soaps, we stored them back at my aunt's house. Later on in the afternoon we decided to go visit my cousin Caroline. When we got to her house I stayed in the car while my mum and my aunty talked for almost 4 hours. When they finished their ‘little get-together’, we headed back home for dinner. We had Curry and Roti with a few sauces as dip. Soon after the big dinner we decided to watch Big Hero Six because my mum kept on nagging us to watch it and so we did.
When the movie finished My mum and I agreed to go back home to our family so we folded our blankets and placed them in the boot of the car. When we got home I went in the shower straight away, after freshening up a bit, it was 10 o’clock and time to get ready for bed.
After a long day I went to get some rest for school the next day.

An Amazing Day
Today was very joyful. It was full of laughter, dancing, and singing.
The first part of the day was The Grandparents Mass, which was prepared wonderfully and I'm sure the Grandparents really enjoyed it. After the mass we took the Grandparents to the library to prepare them some morning tea. When the Grandparents finished their morning tea they were very satisfied with how we served them.
Later in the day, the school gathered in the hall for the Speech competition, I was one of the competitors and my speech was about Life & Death. After all the Speeches, the judges went outside to choose because as they said, "It was a tough decision." But when they did make their decision, they announced the winners.
The winner from the year 5's was Anna-Lisa, the winner from the year 6's was Ana-Lei, the winner from the year 7's was Patrick and the winner from the year 8's was.... Me
I was so dumbfounded and overwhelmed because I thought it was going to be my classmate Jane but I actually won so I was really happy.
My highlight for the day was winning the Speech competition and having the Grandparents come to the mass.
Overall I had an amazing day and the whole day I was smiling.

St Pius X Feast Day 2015
St Pius X Feast Day
St Pius X feast day was a great day. First the day started off with a church service which was very, very quiet and peaceful. When the school finished having their quiet time Room 7 went to set the chairs into a circle for the whole school. Finishing the chairs, the school came out of the court and sat on a seat, Oscar and Aniseko began to cut through the cake and we cheered. When we finished with our cheers the girls from Room 7 handed out the cake to the kids and then the Seniors. After a Beautiful, sunny morning the rest of the day was all relaxing.

Shark Tunnel

My trip to Kelly Tarltons was phenomenal. I was very interested in all the Sea creatures, especially the Sea Turtle because they just glided through the water and it just looked so majestic.
When we arrived at our destination, the whole school got into 1 line and entered the underwater world, we descended down the stairs. Our first stop was at the Penguins, the Penguins were very adorable and most of them looked like they were sleeping. When we finished with the Penguins we all arrived in a place were it had a Giant Squid which had its brain on the side of it, it looked pretty disgusting. It also had some beautiful Jelly Fish, some were glow in the dark and some were just clear. After examining those creatures the next thing so happened to be Stingrays and Hapuka Fish swimming in a large tank. While we were there we all decided to have Morning Tea. After having a snack the host came out and she started informing us about how Stingrays live and what they eat, she also said that the two Stingrays were girls and they all have the same names which is Phoebe.
When we were done exploring the Stingrays world we headed towards the sharks habitat which was a walkway tunnel. We went around two times non-stop because we were waiting for Mrs Tui. When she finally arrived we climbed the steps and saw a lot of small tanks, one had Eels, another had lobsters, and the last one had a sleeping octopus. When we finished exploring we went into the Seahorse Kingdom, we examined the Seahorses especially the Spiny Sea Dragon.
Finally we went to the “School Room” were we had to watch this girl present a presentation about Pollution in the Sea. I was dumbfounded about what she was talking about and I didn’t know that we were doing that stuff too the Sea Creatures.
After a long week of excitement, that trip was definitely worth waiting for and I’m glad the school took us there.
