<span style="font-size: large;">I woke up thinking it's just an ordinary Tuesday. Casually strolling to school while the sun is shining bright in the sky and not a thing to worry about. Once I stepped into class I totally forgot it was Athletics. My mind filled with frustration like 'What if I do not come a place?' or 'What if all the girls finish except me?'. I was so terrified that I couldn't even think properly but as I kept telling myself continuously that I can do it, all that frustration just went away like dust. We started off with 400 m, 100 m, 200 m and lastly relay. What a stressful day. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Yesterday our whole school was lucky enough to attend the Manaiakalani Film Festival. So basically this means a whole cluster of schools in the Tamaki Area created a short film on whatever topic they chose. Our movie was based on Rugby Values. It was all about good manners and what it takes to be a future rugby player. I hope everyone enjoyed our film because I know I did. </span>

<span style="font-size: large;">Once we started the relays, everyone was all over the place: students passing to wrong people, students not knowing who were in their team, students dropping their baton. It was so ridiculous even the teachers were confused.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">But as time gradually went by, everyone stated to become familiar with the course and it became easier to perform. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">How do colours change? This week our class was working on an experiment. At first I felt I had no hope in completing this experiment, but as we slowly got stuck in to it I was wrong. We started off by cutting out 3 equal circles that was 1cm apart. After, we had to colour each side with red, green and blue then punch a hole with a nail. Once we had finished we used some wool to thread through the hole. I was so excited once it finished because I could see the different colours in the wheel and it was that simple. The purpose for this experiment was to find out if colours could change, it certainly did. </span>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9141701817741050957.post-32079400543240227632017-09-14T09:49:00.005+12:002017-11-12T21:35:06.041+13:00 ๐ Duffy Role Model Assembly ๐<span style="font-size: large;">A couple of days ago we had our Duffy Role Model Assembly!

<span style="font-size: large;">For the last few weeks rooms 9,10 and 12 have been concentrating on our cross country. I was really devastated even though people say running is good for you in some ways. As we all started running round and round the block, I felt like I was going to collapse any minute but luckily I didn't. Once it was the last lap I thought I should at least put some effort in and so I did. Finally I had finished running. My legs were so numb and I could hardly breathe. But now I know if I just keep running I will be familiar with the routine and should be fit soon. </span></div>

Once I received my piece of paper and map I quickly ran around looking for attachments. It was kind of hard to concentrate with the cold air blowing upon my face. After running around it started to ease down and I was really tired but I managed to keep going. As I became more familiar with the course it was like a piece of cake. Finally I darted off to Mr Leon and I was so </span>surprised<span style="font-family: inherit;"> because I came first. I jumped with joy. Once everyone slowly made there way back and calmed down we all sat their patiently waiting. Overall Orienteering was so much fun. Do you love Orienteering?</span></i></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Yesterday we were preparing for our Pasifika Display. Each class in our entire school had to come up with a song related to the Pacific. There were so many songs to choose from, but the main song our teacher thought of was Moana: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i66p0_wZ9F0">How Far I'll Go</a>. Everyone in our class obviously knew the song especially me. Once the song started all of us were so shy to express our voices. But as we started to gain confidence it became familiar and everybody started joining in. It was a different experience and one that I began to enjoy, I hope everyone else felt the same way. </span>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9141701817741050957.post-46031057932219184062017-06-14T15:38:00.000+12:002017-06-21T14:19:10.568+12:00๐ My Experience At St Kents ๐<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">I'm so happy to do skipping. For the past few weeks our class have been doing a lot of practice for our skipping display. Our warm ups have really been helping us to become better than before. After our warm ups we are split into groups of up to 5 or 6. I must say after all the hard work we've all put in, it actually showed when we were displaying our moves. Everyone had different skill levels with skipping - some were beginners and others were advanced. During our practice our teachers were choosing people for our skipping competition that will be happening at the end of the term. But I know that if we keep practicing it will all make a change!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">For a few weeks we have been learning about Pasifika. I was so excited to learn about the lifestyles that usually happen back in the islands. Before we could start our drawings and designs, we had to create our own piece of writing about the Tongan Tapa. It was so hard to focus because of the noise in the classroom. After all the researching and reading it finally paid off. Since we were writing about the Tongan Tapa we obviously needed a drawing or design with it. I'm very glad that I learnt about the different cultures. </span>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9141701817741050957.post-22938034711841158172017-06-06T14:00:00.004+12:002017-06-27T20:18:15.383+12:00๐ What A Beautiful Day To Do Fitness ๐<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Today was a wonderful day to do running. Even though it was a bit chilly it still turned out very good. After the long weekend everyone looked shattered and tired. Looking at the sky it was crystal clear and really sunny to at least do some exercise. Once the bell rang everyone walked casually like always and stood in line to wait for Mr Reid. When Mrs Golder started the timer everyone dashed off in a flash. About five minutes into the fitness, everyone was puffed out, but we had fun anyway. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Today is an exciting day for New Zealand. It's National Milk Day! Since it's National Milk Day our teacher decided that we should have photos taken. I didn't know there was a day called National Milk Day, until our teacher mentioned it. I was really confused.

I was thinking about the weather but as I turned around all I could see from a distance was a crystal clear sky and the bright yellow sun. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">As we walked casually on the field we quickly unpacked our equipment and played our first game. It was kind of nerve-racking waiting for the hooter to go. We were actually not that bad, we won most of our games against Glen Taylor, Sylvia Park and Saint Patricks, but we sadly lost to Tamaki Primary. After all the frustration and team work we managed to come first with Stonefields. What a great day!</span><br />

<i><span style="font-size: large;">I woke up extremely excited to go to school. I actually thought that 2 whole weeks without any learning and no friends was a bit too long. On the way to school I felt a slight chill heading towards me. As I slowly walked closer to class I spotted all my friends, I jumped with joy. As soon as the bell rang everyone walked casually to their daily fitness. I think that my first day back at school was really fun!!</span></i>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9141701817741050957.post-31524872252994943932017-04-06T13:52:00.001+12:002017-04-13T12:30:27.806+12:00Lights, Camera, Action ๐ฅ<span style="font-size: large;">For the past few weeks a group of students from Rooms 11 and 12 had the chance to create a slide presentation for Te Oro. Only the best students were chosen,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The students who were chosen were those who showed high standard in art and writing. They were myself, Athens, Katrina, Saluselo, Mika, Min Zin, Jack and Maia. For the first few days we spent time organising our ideas so that we knew what we wanted on the slides.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">My plan was to create an inforgraphic about four different pests, around our local area. Our main purpose was to make it interesting, creative and entertaining. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Now there is only one more week to memorise and focus on our learning. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br />It's not that hard looking after a class for 10 minutes while the teacher is gone for lunch. But it is a huge responsibility to keep the classroom in order, and have the students listen to you. Yesterday I received my monitors badge for 2017. I received one last year but that was when I was kind of a beginner, and I was still learning to be a responsible leader and monitor. </span><br />

But I really love it! Maths is something I love doing at school although it can get a bit tricky most of the times. These last couple of weeks we've been learning about multiplication and division but now we're onto fractions. Our main focus is to use efficient ways to work out our problems that have been given to us. It doesn't really sound hard and they're not just normal equations. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">This year the year 7 and 8's have been going to Tamaki College every Wednesday for Technicraft. The subjects the college have are Wood and Cooking. The teacher for Wood is Mr Grundy and for Cooking is Mrs Tuipolotu. I have recently been cooking and we've been making a lot of creative foods. My favourite recipe so far would have to be the quiche because it came out how I wanted it to be and it tasted really good. </span>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9141701817741050957.post-43742711128528946202017-03-07T13:50:00.000+13:002017-03-08T21:11:40.432+13:00Surrounded By Pests ๐<span style="font-size: large;">All the schools in Manaiakalani Cluster except for us is studying about the waterways.

<span style="font-size: large;">I came to school, only to see that Mrs Golder wasn't here today. Where is she? Why didn't she come to school? Why was there another teacher here? Many questions were going through my head. Then that's when I possibly knew, Mrs Golder was probably sick today. I have to be honest I really wanted her to come to school! Now we can't take our Chromebook's home! Aarrgghh I really hope she comes tomorrow.</span></div>
