Athletics

On the 13th of October it was athletics day for Pt England school. Pt England school had 4 different teams and they aren Hinemoana, Hokule’a, Te Aurere, and Hikianalia.

My favourite activity from athletics was the relays because my team worked really well together and we helped each other and cheered for each other as we went. The activity I found challenging was the sprints and the tagger war.I found tagger war hard easy in the first 2 rounds but when we versed Hikianalia and Te Aurere they were really hard to beat because they we strong and they worked together as a team to win.

Finally after all that running and doing the activities it was lunch time and we finally had some rest and had something to eat. As soon as the bell rang it was time to go back to have some more fun at athletics.It was time to do high jump and I really enjoyed high jump because all we did was have fun while jumping on the mat and enjoying athletics while we can.

When athletics was over I couldn’t stop thinking about how much fun everyone had. What I enjoyed about athletics was working as a team with the year 7 girls, participating in the activities, I also enjoy myself and I enjoyed having fun at athletics and I enjoy being a year 7.

Navy Band

On Friday the 23rd of October the New Zealand navy band performed at Pt England school.The navy band’s first performance was 20th century music and after they played the 20th century music they went straight to acting and the movies they acted to was spongebob, star wars and Top secret.Once their acting was over a man came out and started squirting us with water and it was so hilarious because everyone was getting wet and started screaming to get even more wet. Once that was over a man from the band was reading us a story but he sang it to us which was fun because we all like singing.

The Navy band was singing their last song and the whole school stood up to support them by singing with them and we sang Roar. After that was over it was time to get ready to go back to our home classes and we all had so much fun singing with the band. Once it was time to do fitness we all ran past the navy band people and showing off to them how fast we can run.

Manaiakalani

Are you a part of the Manaiakalani family? Well Manaiakalani is a place where people enjoy watching movies and experiencing what other schools do compared to the school you go to. Usually every year my school “Pt England” go with “Tamaki College” but this year we are going with a school that has never been to one of these before. Which is “Ruapotaka primary and intermediate school”.

Some schools usually just make 10-15 movies but our school makes over 20 movies because it is based on each class room. So every year their school principals or teachers pick 2 people from their school to present in front of everyone to show and tell what their movie will be about. And my class presenters was pt england street. So  Manaiakalani has always been held in one place which is in “Sylvia Park at the cinemas”.
