2012 Reflection

In the beginning of the year one of the things I struggled on was maths, and now I know I have improved over the months and I’m proud of my achievements in all of my subjects. The one thing I enjoyed most was sports because I got to meet a lot of different people and got to learn some sports that were new to me.

One of the least things I enjoyed was maths because I didn’t really get into it. The most thing I am proud of this year was joining the extension group because I never knew I was that smart. This year I joined the choir aka PEPA, Pt England Performing Arts, but I didn’t enjoy it because of some of the song choices but besides that it was alright.

The achievements I have made this year were great and I am very proud of them because most of the events I have tried out for I made it in.

The thing I am most looking forward to next year is going to college because there are a lot of more opportunities in college.

Camp Ngaruawahia

“Yes, the day’s finally here,” I shouted with excitement as I got out of bed. Rushing to get in the car to edger to get to school so we can pack the bus. It was a beautiful Tuesday morning today was the arrival to our year 8 camp. Once everything was packed it took a long time to get on the bus but we finally got on ready for our long journey to Ngaruawahia.

“Wow,” I said as we made it to the campsite. The site was amazing because the lake looked stunning and there was a pool, a hot pool, mini golf, gym, and much much more.

Once we had unpack the bus we had morning tea at the playground and then went to our cabins. In my cabin was Sylvia, Mino, Selena H, Toreka, Mubasshira, Lesley and Awhina.

My favourite thing at camp was the game room because there was a pool table, two table tennis tables, Foosball, and another game. The reason it was my favourite was because it was raining most the time so we use to chill out and play some games against the parents.

On the last day of camp we went to Waingaro hot springs. It was awesome because we got to bomb and dive in the pool. the pools we swam in was really deep. There was two huge slides that looked really cool.

All of the activities were fun and this camp was a great way to finish off the year for the year 8 and I hope I can go there again in the holidays.

Blue Light Disco

I was amazed as I walked through the doors of the flashing lights and crazy dance moves. Tonight was the night for the ‘Blue Light Disco!’ The Disco was run by the cops and prefects and some people from the community.

Walking through the doors where the party was, I saw my friends and started to groove to the rhythm of the music. Watching everyone dancing It was already time for a competition. There were around about 4 or 5 which were dougie, cat daddy, limbo competitions and some more.

After some comps it was time for something to eat, “Mmmm people were saying as they rushed in line for a delicious sausage sizzle and fizzy drink. After everyone was satisfied by their meal they started to dance again.

Unluckily it was time for the last song. So we danced as hard as we could till the song ended. “That was awesome,” I thought to myself and that was also a great last disco.

Where I Am From - Spoken Word Poem

Where I am from I see clear skies and flowing water,
Where I am from I see people having fun everywhere,
Where I am from I taste fresh tropical flavours and different kinds of spices,
Where I am from I taste the smoky food cooked by the barbecue,
Where I am from I feel happiness and sadness around me,
Where I am from I hear laughter and joy from friends and family,
Where I am from I hear the shouting of playful children,
Where I am from I smell roasting chicken and chocolate biscuits,
Where I am from I smell fresh spices and delicious sausage sizzles,
Where I am from I touch soft grass and freezing waves,
Where I am from I touch the green grass as I lie down for a rest.
