Changing Teachers

Today is our final farewell with our teacher Miss Leaupepe. Today we had a special farewell mass with Miss Leaupepe, we also meted our new priest and we got to introduce our new teacher Mr Slade. Miss Leaupepe has a job at the National Library in Parnell. I think it is really cool to have a male teacher because they are into sports.  I am looking forward to have our new teacher and i hope we learn new stuff.

Leki’s holiday

During the holidays Leki’s cousin’s came from Hawaii and stayed in Auckland for 2 weeks and 5 days.

Leki’s family went to the pools and after they had stayed in the pool they went to One Tree Hill. He said that the pool water was warm and he had lots of fun. He said that it was cool watching from the top of the mountain.

After that they went to Sylvia Park and went inside and walked around and bought stuff but he forgot what he had bought and plus they went to Pakuranga plaza. He said that he bought himself a videogame so he can play games at his house. Then his family and him came back home and played on the trampoline.

Leki’s highlights where going to One Tree Hill and after that they went back home and played on the trampoline. When they had finished jumping on the tramp they went inside and made Smores with marshmallows, chocolate and crackers.

Leki’s lowlights was his cousin’s leaving to Hawaii.

Leki’s dream holiday was his cousin’s coming to New Zealand and stay here for a little while and then his whole family goes to Hawaii.

Reflection Term 2

In term 2, my highlights were we had done fitness and a circuit fitness in the hall and I liked it because it makes me lose weight. I also liked the egg thinking because it was cool creating our own creative things to protect our eggs from cracking. We had a Duffy assembly and we had a visitor and his name was Simon O’Connor. We had auditions for who was going to present for the Duffy assembly and Justin won out of the boys and Pepe won out of the girls. Some of our year 7’s are joining songwriting with Mrs Carter after school every Thursday and they get to create there own song. Some of our year 8’s are doing mentoring and that means they can write there own song as well similar to the year 7’s. Yesterday we had a 3 way conference with our parents and my Interview was at 6:35. I need to work on focusing on my work.

My lowlights for term 2 was that I had missed out on the farewell picture with Huni and the school photos.

I am looking forward to the Rugby League and Badminton sports next term.

My week 8 Reflection
