Willow Park

Willow park here we come!!

In the holiday’s the riverside club went on a holiday camp to Willow Park, the first thing we did when we got there was to sort out our team group’s ,then unload all our bags. Waiting excitingly to see our team rooms, we had to have a team meeting with our group to make up our team names. After our team meeting we took all our bags up stairs to our rooms. The boy’s room’s were up stairs but on the left and the girl’s room were on the right.


Anxiously waiting to have lunch, Mr Burt said that we could have free time. Then Te Rina and I
went for a quit walk around the huge field. After a while  Mr Burt Beeped the hooter then he called us to come in to the Rimu room and sit down in our group lines, then the group that sits up perfectly they get to go for lunch first. After having our yummy lunch all the groups had a
challenge to do, it was kind of like treasure hunt.

Lastly, who ever comes first they get to get points. Then who ever comes last they get no points, well my team came 2nd so we got 30 points. After all that we were all exhausted from all that running and finding all of those stuff. But at least we all had fun and enjoyed it.

My dream in the future is to be an artist and to be best artist that can discover things and draw thing with perseverance. It will be an honor to get offered a scholership to an awesome university in America.

Anxiously waiting for the fireworks to exploded, it was really nerve racking but before the fireworks there was a huge ceremony for the starting of the rugby world cup.My favorite part was when a little boy Imagining that he was a famous rugby player. While he was running he was tackling these boys, then at the end he saw Jonah Lomu. Then waiting for the exciting moment the fireworks, all you can hear and see is the fireworks exploding and sparkling on the sky tower,it looked like the sky tower was falling. The opening ceremony was very Beautiful, I really loved it how they designed it and how they designed the costumes it really stands out. This is the second time New Zealand has hosted the rugby world cup,I am really proud of my home country New Zealand. It was a very eye catching because how they organized it. I hope that the All Blacks win the world cup this year, The All Blacks Is my first favourite team then it’s Tonga they are my culture team.

Anxiously waiting in a line to go in the Life Education caravan, Lynn told us to line up from biggest to smallest, After a minute Lynn led the line into the caravan we all sat down. When we sat down we started talking to Harold he asked us if we can help him with his homework then Lynn said to him “ok” we will do number 1-3 and you do number 4 so that it can be fare. One of the homeworks we did was learning about body parts and other stuff. The last homework we did for Harold was about sorting the food.

One News

On Tuesday after lunch room 16 and Point England School had the opportunity to be on One News. I was so amazed when they came in our Classroom! They were here to talk about why we have Netbooks and other schools don't because One News is pushing the Government to let all schools to have Netbooks to make it fair. Some schools don't have any Netbook because they can’t pay their fees. I was really excited because it was on the news but I didn’t watch the news because I was at netball.
