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.

Play-Doh
This term in Extension we had to research about a toy that was chosen for us by Mrs Tele'a. My toy I had got was Play-Doh.
Noah W. and Joseph S. McVicker are famous for making a product known as Play-Doh. In 1956 Play-Doh was created in Cincinnati, Ohio, U.S. Did you know in 1930 Play-Doh use to be a wallpaper cleaner. In January 26, 1965 was when they paid the patent, (patent means Someone who pays the right for the product).
The age for this toy is 15 months and up. Play-Doh has a large range of prices because there are lots and lots of different types of Play-Doh. And did you know if you made a big ball of all the Play-Doh Compound ever created, it would weigh more than 700 MILLION POUNDS. Kids love playing with Play-Doh I think it’s a good fun toy for the whole family.

Narritive
“Errr,” the car jolted forward as Sam stepped on the brake and shouted, “Chris we’re here,” “Huh, oh wow the forest looks amazing, lets set up camp Sammy,” The two girls had just finished setting up when Sam heard a weird noise.
“Chris,” Sam squeaked “What was that? I’m scared,” Chris replied, “Don’t worry it’s just the forest, it’s probably a rabbit or something.” They both heard it this time then decided to go and investigate.
Pushing bushes and branches out of the way they saw weird looking footprints, “What the,” they said looking closer. ‘Boom’ there it was again, “Lets go see what it is Sam,” “No I don’t think it’s a good idea what if it’s a bear or something?” “Come on,” Chris said as she dragged Sam along.
“Ahhh,” “Shhh,” Chris said as she covered Sam’s mouth. Sam got away from Chris and hide behind a fallen tree. “Ahh!” Chris screamed as the giant creature snached her up. “Hahaha,” “What do you want from me,” Chris pleaded, “I’m going to eat you, Argh” “No!!!” Sam cried as she saw her sister getting eaten.
“You monster,” Sam screamed out to the creature, “Now it’s your turn, run,” sprinting passed trees and bushes she ran for her life. She jumped over a log looking for a weapon of some sort, ”Aha you’re mine now,” she said waiting for the creature.
It went silent she looked back nothing was there, ”Boo,” “Argh,” She shouted as she went to kill the beast, “oh no,” “Bang,” the beast exploded it was done the beast was killed. Sam cried on her way back home leaving the gear behind, “Why,” She said, “Why.”

Barnyard Narrative
“Come here Vivienne and Osana quickly,” called out Tom to his small chubby dogs. Turning the corner he noticed something but couldn’t see because of the dark. “Come on girls lets go check that out,” “Wow an abandoned barn,” Tom sprinted to the door. “Errr,” went the door as he entered with the two dogs. All he could hear was footsteps but they had stopped.
”Ohhh freaky house” whispered Tom. Getting closer and closer to the end of the hallway the debris got worse “Slam!!” “Woof Woof “screeched Vivienne as she was getting dragged into a room. “Vivienne NO!!!” Tom shouted with anger, “Osana come here, Osana, OSANA!,”
Tom searched everywhere but had no luck, ”I wish I never came here” he sobbed, “Oww,” one of the dogs whined. Suddenly another thud, “Viv, Osana are you there,” silence filled the room as he headed towards a small door for him just to fit in. “Err, bang,” the door slammed behind him. He started to freak out as a weird sound was approaching him, “Arghh.”

The Iosefo Family Comes To Pt England
Today a very special guest came to Team 5’s team assembly. He was asked to go on Campbell live and he is a prefect at Mt Roskill Grammar. Can you guess who it is? His name is......Joshua Iosefo he is the poet of the spoken word ‘Brown Brother’.
After he watched the movie Sinarella he got angry because of all of the stereotypes so he went into his room and wrote for an hour and that is how his poem was born. After he showed his parents they said this has to get out. So at his school all of the prefects has to recite a speech so he decided to do that.
He said that it was a risk to recite the poem in front of the school but he felt comfortable saying it. Joshua Iosefo ‘Brown Brother’ is on YouTube and he is so lucky because he got to be on live television.

Tommy Kapai Wilson Presentation
Mini Olympics at Pt England School
A sea full of multicoloured t-shirts started chanting and cheering. Today was the Point England mini Olympics. There were 16 countries Mexico, Jamaica, Romania and many more. I was the leader for Russia.
We participated in 7 events touch, handball(The real handball they play in the Olympics), foursquare etc. We played against many teams and won some and lost some. We got lots of points for sportsmanship.
My most favourite event was foursquare (well it wasn’t really foursquare it was actually more like handball). We had to play in doubles and it was nerve racking. When I got on to the court My partner and I were on for a while.
My least favourite was three legged soccer. the reason I didn’t like it was because my partner kept wandering off. Also because the strap kept falling off.
At the end it was hard to come back and sit down because of the massive crowd in the way. Finally reaching my destination it was unfortunately the end of the mini Olympics. Maybe next term we can do something like this again because everyone including me enjoyed it.

Tommy Kapai Wilson
On the 7 of September a very special person came to our school. Uncle Anzac aka Tommy Kapai Wilson he is very well known for writing books about a Kiwi named Kapai. When he came he talked about many things.
When Tommy was younger his father lied about his age so that he could join the army (he was only seventeen). When his father came back he said, “I’m not going to be alone anymore.” He made rules which were never violence, always make ten people smile a day, hard case humour. Now Tommy pushed it up to make 20 people smile a day.
Later on in his life he went and worked as a dishwasher in a restaurant (I know it’s not the best job in the world but at least he had one). Then he got a job as a butler for a famous person and he got a Ferrari, a boat and lots of money. But he decided to go back home to his family.
When he came back he started to write children's books and that is how he became a famous author. His most popular books are Kapai the kiwi.
Maybe when I get older I can become an author if I try hard enough. Tommy Kapai Wilson has inspired me of what I can be or do in the future.
Thank you Tommy.

Senior Sports Rotation
“Ahhhhhhhhh! My hair”, Mubba screamed as the blustery rain made her rushed to the hall for the senior sports rotation. As we arrived I was wondering what activities we were going to do. All of the houses had four groups and each group had four rotations. I was the leader for Tainui 4.
The rotations my group and I participated in were cyber coach (which is a guy showing you different dance moves), Mr Jacobson’s room to watch one of our old school productions the Toy shop, and then we went to Mrs Flavell to decorate some biscuits and shells. Last of all we went to Miss M for jump jam.
My favourite activity was decorating with Mrs Flavell. The reason I enjoyed decorating would have to be sharing ideas with the other kids and making a good design. Making designs with Ms Flavell was nerve racking because we only had a short period of time (now I know how people on my kitchen rules feel).
In the end I was feeling stink because it came to an end but hopefully we would get to do it again.

Year 7 and 8 Social
Getting ready for tonight I realised that I didn’t have anything to wear. Rushing to the computer to look for a costume to wear. “Aha that’s it.” The Theme was New Zealand olympic team (Black and white)
“Boom, boom, boom,” the music blared as I entered the hall. Lights flashing everywhere I saw Kingston dancing alone in the middle of the dance hall.
There was only three different competitions at the social Dougie, cat daddy and azonto. My favourite competition was Dougie. Mary, Rita, James and Nezinli were the final four. “Oh, oh,” Everyone was shouting as they were dougieing “And the winner is ..... Nezinli,” Mr Barks announced as the boys started screaming and shaking Nezinli around.
Finally everyone was saying as Selena said we could go and eat now. “Mmm..,” I said as I smelt the delicious smell of sausages. “Pick a drink any drink,” Mrs Lavakula said to us, everyone was coming in to have a good sausage sizzle.
“Ok guys this is the final song so everyone dance,” the DJ said. Everyone started dancing then all of a sudden the music stopped and I realized that the social was over. I was bummed that we couldn’t carry on. At the end of the night I was tired and I hope we can do this again.

Treacherous Race
“Bang!” The clappers slammed and everyone was off. Jogging a steady pace I was passing people one by one. Once I got further up ahead a lot of kids were behind me.
Mud started to splatter on my legs then I heard squelching as I ran across the gross, gooey grass. I looked down at my shoes and they were soaked with dirt and water. It was a struggle to run across the mud as it felt like I was running on ice.
Once I passed the bridge the track looked treacherous. “So many steps,” I thought to myself I was gasping for breath as I carried on running. Determination and perseverance made me finish the track.
“Yes,” I shouted as I had finally completed the track. With aching muscles I saw Brooklyn fall so I went over to help her. “Are you alright?” I asked her, “No my leg hurts,” she replied in agony. While still helping Brooklyn she said she was alright to carry on by herself.
With a burst of speed I passed the finish line with pride. Walking to the water fountains I was so glad that I completed the course. I saw my friends and they look exhausted. I was happy with myself and thought I did good for my last year.

Bro Town Animators
Last week on Thursday the extension group got the chance to meet the Bro Town animators Ali, Maka and Nils. These three men showed us what a Zoetrope is. A Zoetrope is what they used to make animations back in the old days.
They also taught us how to find the middle in between two lines. And that's how we made our jellyfish animations, at the end of the session they gave us a pack so that we can make our own animations. Hope you enjoy my movie!!!
Smoking Kills
Teenagers start smoking because they think that it’s cool or maybe it is because other people do it and they feel left out. But if you smoke it is very difficult to stop.
What happens to your health when you smoke? There are many consequences of smoking that are dangerous. Inside every cigarette there are 4000 different types of chemicals 200 of them cause cancer. Smoking can also cause heart problems, all of these things has a high chance of dying.
The consequences of smoking are that you could get wrinkly skin, yellowed teeth, stained fingers, and a disgusting breath. You get these awful things by the cause of smoking and there are many many more of these consequences.
Smoking is also a huge waste of money smokers spend $14-$15 per packet. Every week smokers spend $150, so every year they spend around $5110, if they stop smoking they could save $5110 every year.
So why do people start smoking in the first place? People usually start smoking because they see their friends smoke and they think it’s cool so they want to start. They also get influenced by their family because maybe all of their family members smoke and they want to be just like them. Or maybe they get pressured by peers and they can’t take and start.
Smoking kills. Which path do you want to take?

Gold for Our Champion Valerie Adams
This morning Valerie Adams has won gold for shot put. Many of you are thinking no she got silver, well you’re wrong. The reason why Valerie has the gold medal is because the Belarus woman was stripped of her gold medal because she tested positive for drugs. The president of the New Zealand Olympic Committee Mike Stanley has described Valerie Adams gold medal as 'justice served'. The drug that she was tested positive was methanol.
