Prize giving night

On Thursday night we had prizegiving. Many kids got awards, to acknowledge their hard work in class and outside of class. We started of with year 5s and there item was great everyone was committed to their dance. Kids got award for learning, sports and also for those who come school everyday.

Year 6s was next there one was just like year 5s but with more awards and with a better item. Faioso, Javan and Samoa looked like the main ones for sports and learning awards. Faioso and Javan got sportsman and sportswoman of the year, they deserved it.

Year 7s item was next my heart was pumping faster as it would normally would. Everyone was screaming and yelling out loud more and more people went on the stage to get a awards, I was wondering if I was going to get called up. “Now we move on to Reps awards Temauri, Alfa and Siaosi” as I walked on the stage while everyone was yelling I got scared. I walked up on stage proud to be next to the two boys I played with this year and the two boys I fought against in trials for two rep team but Temauri, Alfa and I made it in, it was the proudest moment of my life achieving  something together with these two boys.

Year 8s item was next year 8s and 7s was crying then. As the year 8s walked up emotions were taking the better of them and not to mention some of the year 7s. Most people tried to hold it in but you can’t hold it in for someone really special and maybe you have known them ever since year 1 is leaving you. Back to awards so for dux Lucy came third and Stevenson and Jordan the two boys in room 3 tied for 1st place on dux it was no shock there because those two boys really do show how smart they are in class. We packed up and prize giving was finished proud of everyone that got an award and everyone who didn’t even though they didn’t get award but at least they still work hard in class. Just for the year 7s we should be stepping up already as leaders and year 8s good luck on your college and god bless yous.

Dangerous teacher 2

“Boom! Somebody call 911”. A handsome boy name Alfa Kepu Saafi tried to do an investigation about fire, something went horribly wrong about his experiment. Alfa wasn’t following the instruction he was too busy trying to look cool. He wanted to find out about fire. His method was to light the lighter, holding it upside down and then counting how long it would take for flame to die.

Alfa was waiting for while now. So he lost his patience went over to check and it burnt his eyebrows,eyelashes and his hair off he had a boko face and hair and sadly the prom was tomorrow. He didn’t want to go but he had to since he was leaving. Alfa went to the prom looking proud his date to the prom was Simon. These two didn’t have dates so they had to go together

Alfa’s friends had his back at the prom.(a few months later) his eyebrows and eyelashes grew up he was very happy he learned if you ever want to do a science experiment remember safety first.      

How do we prepare our body and mind for sports

Immersion Assembly

On the first day of term 2 Point England school had an Immersion Assembly where teachers from all teams presented what they are learning about for the rest of the term.

During the assembly I found out that the funny team one kids are going to be learning about their favourite things and how it can be turned into art. Miss George and the other team one teachers, Miss Wild, Miss Peck, Miss Lal and Miss Dwyer had made a movie of their favourite things and had a quiz at the end, it showed who was paying attention. The prize was a mini size Whittakers chocolate.

The next item was team 2 and they are learning about the different seasons and the amazing colours that come with them, like how Winter has a sparkly blue and white colour when it comes and how autumn has a darker colour like brown, red and maroon, I would probably call them warm colours. So the team 2 teachers (Mrs Nalder, Miss Tumahai, Miss Eadie and Miss Szymanik) and their students will be learning about what colours come with which season.

Then it was team 3's turn and they had made another movie but this time it was about Grand Designs. Mr Blakey was the host and all the other teacher's in team 3 acted in the movie as well. The movie was about how 4 people who shared the same dream found each other on Facebook and decided to make their dream a reality. Their dream was to find the best location so that they could build their DREAM HOUSE. That's when I found out that team 3 students are learning about architectural designs and graphs.

An extra video was made by the team four teachers and it was so funny. There video was about made up superheros and an evil villain named Bear Baxendine who loves stealing chromebooks and how one day he decided to steal Bobby Johns chromebook but was stop by Bat Guy, Wondering  Women and Team Leader America. Team 4 are focusing on comic books and how comics come with more pictures than words.

Finally, we saved the best for last the incredibly talented team 5 teacher's had choreographed a play about Point England’s team houses and what each waka’s true meaning is , Hine Moana is the Lady of the Sea, Te Aurere is the blood, sweat and tears, Hokule'a is the growing earth and Hikianalia is rising up into the guiding constellation of the stars.
