Last Day of School...

The last day of school for 2013 was a day to remember, As teachers and kids were leaving our school. Our teachers from our school that left got flowers and got a movie. The saddest Farewell on Thursday was Whaia Raywen. As she tought our school Te Reo Maori and Hakas, for Productions and more. Lorenz, Was one of her favourite Students way back. He done a haka with three Yr8's to the teachers who were leaving, and it was a very emotional day. As the day came to an end the Yr8's after school had tears running down their faces, as it was their last day at P.E.S. After Everyone Had planned to go to swimarama at pamure, we all walked by foot and all swam. The End:)

2013 Highlights

It was awesome being in Room 22, competing in sports, and all the friends I made. I liked being in the street because we had rotation which was literary or art and I liked art. I liked playing touch with my friends. I liked the people in my class but a little bit people had to go other schools. It was my first time experiencing Being in Intermediate which was great. I love sports but mostly I love rugby because we always played on saturdays for Marist, This was one of my big highlights.

Another thing I liked was my Reading as I improved and went up 2 and a half years. I also have gone up in my Maths, I know all of my Yr7 Strategy's. Im not so good on my writing so thats the thing I need to work on next year. I hope that report card is alright, so I don't get a growl from my mum. Its all so my brothers last year and he said he can't wait to leave P.E.S and leave to College.

Another good highlight is going to action world when the Yr8’s went to camp. So the things I need to work on next year is my behaviour and my writing and my Yr8 Strategies. I also have to think about what I say and keep my hands to myself because I’ve been on A Lot of detentions,and another goal is to have less detentions next year. Its been great so far in room twenty two, but its sad how the Yr8’s are leaving.

Highlights From action world.

On Friday the 6th of December, the Yr7's went to action world, Because the Yr8's went to Rotorua for camp. My favourite highlight has got to be the Tram-peez, Because it was very high and I was scared. We have to walk up a big ladder, Walk on the ledges and grab the bar, We had to lean back to go farer in the air. I jumped and Swung to times, Then We had to jump off at the time the instructor says. Another good Activity was the Jousting Bridge, Because its one where you have to people Versing and they have Bud things, So the aim is to win and throw them off, You can play Unarmed or Armed. And lastly my favourite other  thing was on the bus, we were all driving and singing.

My first day at school

Waking up early to the chirping birds outside, I felt excited for my first day at school. I jumped out of bed, brushed my teeth and got my uniform on. I got in my car then drove off to school.

Opening the door looking at the school gates I unbuckled my seatbelt then walked into Point England slowly. Walking into my new class I felt nervous and scared of the other kids. When I sat down I was at the back because every kid was screaming and shouting.

When it was lunch I just sat down and stared at the wall, I met my first friend Jericho, second was Junior.

Finally It was the end of lunch then we had to do maths, I sucked then when My teacher told me to do times tables, I done Addition

 

Sadly the day had come to an end bells were going off and kids were everywhere, my mum came we went home then ate more food.

Writing Sample

One day as I was making my way to the beach with my friends, I had heard a whisper coming from something in the bushes, It sounded Familiar then  I asked my friends “Did You Hear that..?” they replied no. I had a peek then nothing was there, then I continued walking, again I heard it then it really started to freak me out so I started to run. Halfway to the beach I was so Happy so I could get away from that whisper, Suddenly I heard a different whisper coming from the tree but I didn't want to check because I was too scared.

That whisper gave me a big problem, the whisper was kept in my head every second of the walk that this last whisper was the end of it all as I heard a whisper from a back of a car. Too scared I sprinted into the toilets and stayed there. I got changed a went into the warm water of the beach. I relaxed then went to far into the water, I almost drifted like a boat in the ocean into the open sea. Then I got rescued By some fishers on a Boat.

I went back home and told my mum what had happened and she said those whispers may have been from that Scary Movie you watched Last week. So I finally Found out what it was.

Malala Yousafzai, Nobel prize Nomination.
