Week 10 Term 4

Yay! There is only two and a half days left of school counting today. I can't wait till the holidays and Christmas, but it will be sad to see the year eights leave. Today I finished my visual language task and I handed it in which is lucky because it needs to be finished and handed in at the end of the day. Anyway not much has happened this week, but on the last day of school there is going to be a huge end of year assembly, and tonight there is the year eight ball. I know that most of the year eights are looking forward to it. Once again I am really looking forward to the holidays. Merry Christmas Everyone.

Week 9 Term 4

This week has been great. I have now earned my bronze badge which is good because I have been working really hard to earn it. Yesterday and today is orientation for the new year six's. They pretty much come to school go into the hall for a talk then they come into our class we show them around the school then they return back to the hall for another talk then it's done, and the whole process is repeated again today. I remember coming to orientation I was really excited and nervous at the same time, so this time I could guess what they were feeling. Today I was allowed to show two of the new year six's around they were twin boys, and they seemed really cool. In class we are doing discussions, and today's discussion was about what is violence and what isn't violence. Today we had a assembly and they gave out the athletics certificates. I got first in the high jump and third in the 1500 meters. I am looking forward to another great week next week.

Week 8 Term 4

This week has been great. Today we tested out this video thing called clip champ. Anyway we had to talk to our chrome books and the webcam records you I was a bit awkward talking to a chrome book and at the same time watching yourself speak. On Tuesday I represented my school at the WIMS (Waikato Intermediate Middle Schools) athletics I went for high jump and the relays. I didn't place in the high jump, but my relay team came 2nd overall which I am happy about. In class we have been doing this discussion thing where our teacher gives a topic and we have debates over it. Some of the kids in our class love it, and are always debating, but the other kids in the class are not that confidant in arguing their opinion on the matter. After school today we have touch. My team is really good, and have never lost a game before. Last season I was in the same team as I am in now and we actually won the whole competition.
