Netball Session's






“LISTEN” as our coach yelled out! Standing there I looked at my class mates and everyone was mucking around. As we finally calmed ourselves down our coach carried on talking. As we finally found our coaches name we began our session. Our coaches name was Liz and she helped us improve our skills.

When our skills was finally over it was GAME time. Splitting up into groups of 4 we made our way to the court. Comparing our team to the other’s they were saying we have a 50/50 chance to win. When the whistle blew the ball flew down the court like a bird flying through the air. As it traveled down the court it soon reached the goal and again and again until the game was over. It was a really competitive game.

Health+ Me=?

This term , in Maths , we are learning about statistics. As part of our learning we are examining data related to our health. The first part of our examination we collected data (information) about the food we ate for a week (2/2 to 9/2).

The graph ( or chart) shows how much I ate from six major food groups.

Treaty







In room 19 we have been studying about the Treaty of Waitangi. The Treaty was signed on the 6th of February 1840, it was so that we can have peace between the Maori's and the Europeans. William Hobson signed the Treaty on behalf of queen, and 34 chiefs signed it for the Maori's. Some Maori chiefs didn't agree with the Treaty so they decided to not sign it.

First day of school.

Making my way to the front gate of the school my friends meet me half way. Standing in the rain I turned around and saw my little sister there in the rain. As I walk away my friends follow me to the street. Lining up in our class from last year made me think back of all the memories. Walking in the hall seeing all those people sitting down was a change, without the Yr 8's from last year it was empty and quiet. Hearing Mr Burt introduce himself I look around to see most of the Yr 8's from last year here. Like last year the Yr 7/8's make there way back to the street to get put into there new class, silently sitting there on the cold ground I close my eyes then suddenly I hear my get called out to be in Mr Harris class. Meeting new friends was a bit cool finding out what school they traveled from and how old they were. We got several new kids at our school this year meeting Helen this new girl in our class was funny. Funny I don't know why but I haven't meet new friends at school in ages. Since it was nearly Waitangi day we studied how the Treaty was signed and who signed it.


Finally morning tea, TIME to catch up with my friends.
