Service Day

Hi everyone,
On Thursday 30th August at school, we had a thing called 'Service Day'. On Service day we do things for our community, for example we did the gardening, some people went to Saint John of God to visit the hurt people to play games, others went to Cherry's and many more. I went to Cashmere View Retirement home and sang as a group to them. We sung eleven songs like, Five Little Ducks, Ka Waiata (A song we sing at school), E ta Ariki and many more. Here are some pictures... 😁

Wednesday 15 August 2018

Hi everyone,
A couple days ago, the school teachers had a strike. The whole school, not even a few teachers. Instead of going to school we had a day off. While the teachers were trying to get more money, us children were sleeping in, playing on the XBox, Playstation, Computer and maybe having playdates. I had a playdate with my best friend, Isla! Hope you liked my blog post today!

Netball

Hi everyone, 

On Thursday 9 August we played netball. My team had a bye and so did the Green Machines, so we played a game against each other. First I was Attack then Defence, then I was off and last quarter I was Defence again. The Green Machines won by 5-10. It was a great game. We all had fun. -Lexie 🌝

Hi everyone,
Today was a mufti day, not just any mufti day... Crusaders mufti day! I am wearing, my mum's crusader top, pink and black socks, (pink is red's cousin), black comfy pants, a scarf, a belt and a headband. Earlier after Morning tea we took a photo altogether. We are wearing this to support the Crusaders. A good luck to all the Crusaders, I hope they win! -Lexie ♡🌝

Weekly Highlights.

Hi everyone,
on Thursday 9th August we did reading differently. Our teacher, Mr Koorey gave us a paragraph. The paragraph had been all mixed up so we had to fix it up so we did. This is how it started out like :

Soon we will all be history. Then kids in school will read about
us. I am happy. I have a large family. I have four brothers and
four sisters. I am in the middle. Four sisters are younger than
me. I go to school. I am in the sixth grade. I like my teachers.
My teachers like me. My favorite class is history. I like to read
about history. History is a story about our past. I I have many
friends. hope they like our stories. My best friend is Bobby.
Bobby and I do many things together. I have friends in every
class. We play basketball together. We ride Four brothers are
older than me.our bikes together. I have many other friends.
We all go to the mall on weekends. We go to movies. We go
to We swim together. restaurants. We tell jokes. We laugh.
We have fun. Life is great!

And I fixed it and make the paragraph :

Life is great!  I have many friends. My best friend is Bobby. Bobby and I do many things together.  We play basketball together. We ride our bikes together. We tell jokes. We laugh. We have fun. We go to restaurants. We swim together.  We go to movies. I am happy. I have many other friends. We all go to the mall on weekends. I have friends in every class. I have a large family.

Winter Sport

Hi Everyone,

Yesterday the year 5 and up went to winter sport. For Winter Sport I play netball.

My team was up against Saint Francis. They were pretty good but we were good too. 

First, I was off so I was timing the game for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, our team grouped up for our positions. I got C (centre). There are 2 Cs, me and Kywn. We all sprinted and tried our best to stay in front of our partners and get the ball. We got the ball so many times! Poor Julia was off that time, she was timing. Once the timer was done, we met up again Kywn had to go off that time. I was... Attack. I went with Julia. The other team started with the ball, we got the ball after a couple passes but we still made it down to the goal. Whenever we got the ball I sprinted down to the goal circle.. Julia tried to shoot and... she failed :(

I caught the rebound, I shot and I.... Scored! Woohoo! After a couple minutes, we met up AGAIN. Mr . Koorey said that we were going to mix up that time.. So I got centre with Emily! We ran up and down the court trying to get a goal or more. We got a couple goals. The timer rang. We met up once more. Then.. Mr Koorey said that... WE WON! The score was 15-0. Overall it was a great game. I loved playing winter sport that day, It was very fun. 🌝
