Mangere Pools

After 2 days being so busy and playing a lot of activities during camp, I finally got to relax and have breather. My friends were excited because we knew we were going to hang out together to the Mangere pools. It was a lovely summers day for a swim and some end of camp fun.

There was a scary moment and my heart was pounding which meant I was nervous, thats when I was going to go on the long slide. I got closer and closer to the beginning of the line. As I first got on to the top of the slide it started off quite slow, but suddenly it got steep and I zoomed into the pool fast which felt like I was going to fall off.

It felt like I was drowning,  but instead I was floating. Water splash onto my face like someone smacked me hard it was sore but I shouted “WOOOHOOO.” I was panicking and thinking where is the top.

As I got the the very bottom of the slide, I hit Anisha and I held onto her because she is tall and  it was deep.  Unable to the ground at first, I eventually turned up the right way, stood on my toes and had a big breath. Finally made it to the edge. I got out of the pools and went back to the top of the slide to do it all again.

Even though I did not go onto the bombing pool, I still had a lovely day.

Year 5 and 6 camp

Yesterday was our first day at camp, well not for the year 6. We started of with a meeting and got into our activities. We stayed in the hall because our activity was table tennis and roller blade. It was the best one yet. Well here is a picture of me Rollerblade.

Testing

A few weeks ago, we started doing tests. I was feeling really nervous because it was the hardest one of all. It was our reading test and what I think is that I might not get high marks but I was a bit ok with itq.

When we got into the music room, Ms Garden told us to go to a computer so we did. As soon as we had filled out of username and password, we clicked on the button that said login. “NOW BEGIN YOUR TEST” Ms Garden said. Then I shook even more and pressed “sit test”

“I think my test is going to be bad” I thought in my head, but I just kept on going. 20 minutes later I got up to question 23 and I felt excited because I was near the end. I said to myself  “What should I do? rush or finish it off properly” So I made the right choice,.....finish it off properly.

I got to question 32 and I said to myself  with a smile “I did well on the test” so then I came to class with a serious facial and a really happy smile.

Camp

Fiafia

I didn’t know what fiafia meant, but as soon as I came to this school I knew. It is all about celebrating, being happy and coming together just like a family. If this sounds interesting to you, come along at the end of this term on April 18th.

Come and see what we have practised by our professional teachers. They have amazed the kids with what they taught them. So be sure to come along on April 18th where a lot of talented kids perform.

Do you want to see some Pt Englanders show their talent? Then don’t miss the fun on April 18th. It is fiafia night and that is when kids dance, sing and do traditional items.
