Week 6 Term 4

Bonjour,

Well, athletics was this week, and the worst thing happened.  I didn't miss out on getting into WIMS athletics in case you're wondering.  Something WORSE happened.  The day of athletics I woke up with a sore throat and stomach.  I thought it would pass, but then............... I threw up in the toilet.  Mum told me I was staying home, and I was gutted.  I was throwing up all morning, and then I needed a shower.  I fainted four times in the shower, still throwing up WHILE I was unconscious.  My mum called an ambulance, but they took ages to get there because it was a non emergency because I was still breathing.  When the eventually got there they took my blood pressure, and listened to what happened.  They told me I needed to drink powerade because it had electrolights in it which would help me recover.  I stayed of school, then tried to go to school on Wednesday, but only survived until lunch, and came home again.  On Thursday I was feeling much better and I went to school for the whole day, same with Friday, and I slowly recovered back to normal.  That was my crazy week.

Au Revoir!

Week 4 & 5 Term 4

Bonjour,

Gala was in week 4.  It was awesome, and hopefully the PTA raised lots of money for the school through this.  The money from the gala is going to things like heat pumps in the library, more library books etc.  I was there for the whole gala because my mum is part of the PTA.  The theme was Sports Mania, and it went from 5-8pm.  We have been doing more practice for athletics in during week 5 because athletics is next week!  I can't wait, and I really hope I do well so I can go to WIMS athletics in week 8.  Because if I go to WIMS athletics then I will get a badge, and I haven't gotten any badges all year which is pretty bad.  Wish me luck!!!

Au Revoir!

Week 3 Term 4

Bonjour,

The Light Party was on Saturday, and I went to it with my friends Jessica and Madison.  It was really fun, we were there from 3:50 til about 6:00.  It was so much fun, and I go to the light party every year so on Saturday it would have been my eighth time!  The Light Party started when I first moved into Te Awamutu, and it is on the 31st of October each year, and it is pretty much a Halloween celebration.  The best thing about the Light Party is that everything is free!!!!  You just come from 3:30 onwards and then you can go on rides and play lots of games, and have fun.  This event is organised by the Te Awamutu churches an it is an amazing event, so thank you to all the people who organised it for us, it is very much appreciated.

Au Revoir!

Week 2 Term 4

This week the main event was our schools Grandparents Concert.  From 12pm onwards on Friday we were allowed to show our grandparents around the school, and show them what we have been doing for the past three terms.  At one o'clock we took all the grandparents into the hall for a concert.  There were Kapa Haka acts, the last song from our production 'Battle of the Bands', some songs from our band, a performance from our Jump Jam competition group, and lots more.  It was a really great day, and my grandparents came as well, but they didn't stay for the concert because I wasn't in it.  I think that the grandparents really enjoyed themselves on Friday, at least I hope they did, and I'm going to try and get involved in something next year.

Week 1 Term 4

It's already!

This year has gone really fast, and I can't believe I'm going to be a year 8 next year, it feels like just yesterday I started here.  We haven't done much for the start of the term, but on Wednesday I went sailing, and it was REALLY fun.  We learnt how to sail, then we sailed in pairs, and then we learnt how to sail by ourselves!  Milly, our instructor let us play lots of games when we had learnt how to sail.  We had to chase after balls, and if you didn't get one you had to try and steal of others.  It was an amazing experience, and a big thank you goes out to Milly who was our instructor, and a really good teacher.

Au Revoir! :)

Letter To The Twenty-First Century

This is my poem that I wrote all by myself.  I think it is quite good.
