It has been an interesting start to the year to say the least. We have had a revolving door of people coming and going due to isolation periods. The great news is everyone is rolling with the punches and dealing with the constant changes really well. We look forward to sharing what we have been up to on this blog, so bookmark it and be sure to visit from time to time. Oh, and don't forget to leave a comment here and there. We would love to hear from you.
This is Room 1's Manaiakalani film festival entry for 2018. We read and loved Lisa Regan's book Girls don't fart okay so decided to turn it into a movie. It was a challenge to condense the whole book into a 3 minute movie but with using a bit of creativity and artistic license we got there in the end. Do girls really fart? Watch and see?
O ne day there was a giraffe with the most beautiful dots in the world he loved everything about him especially his short and shiney neck. Life was good for him but sometimes he had problems. He couldn't eat very much because most things grew on trees and his most favorite fruit was red,crunchy apples but those grew on trees too. The next day he decided to wake up early and for a walk. While he was walking he thought to himself "I wonder what it would be like to have a longer neck"He carried on walking when suddenly he heard the sound of breaking branches he turned his head sharply trying to find the source of the commotion.He couldn't see anything or anyone so he bravely tramped in the in the direction that he heard the sound . As he was walking he heard the sound again he walked faster and faster and soon his walk turned in to a sprint he tripped on a rock and fell on his four knees and his head hit the hard, compact ground. He became unco...
B ack before men would rule, all living things were at war. It was a scary world at that time, and they had to keep everything to themselves. The ants used to be small and weak. They would have the hardest time whenever they came across the big, wild animals. Everyday was a struggle for them since they had to find food for their colony. Their colony was so big that it had as many people that a city can contain. One day, a brave, unafraid group of ants went out to find food early in the morning. They thought all the animals would be asleep. They snuck behind the tall, overgrown grass, and tried to stay as silent as possible. "There it is, the food!" Shouted one ant quite loudly. "Shhh, you're going to wake the animals up." whispered the ant leader. They tried lifting the giant, heavy seed they claimed as their food. No matter how much they puffed and tried, they still can't lift the seed up. "I give up!" Screamed the same ant from bef...
Covenant Events - Brings 'INSPIRE TOUR' to Point England! It was an awesome time for all our year 7 and 8 students. Learning valuable lessons for life right now and into the future! Here are some gems from the show: How can we achieve the goals we set ourselves? Have you set yourself a goal? Do it! ASK - don't be afraid to ask for help. It's the best thing to do when you're stuck. People WANT to help you! BELIEVE IN YOURSELF - having the confidence to give things a go is another key to achieving our goals! Through play, song and dance Maio and Levi entertained and taught us. Likely a message we've heard from our own families, teachers and friends. However it's always good to hear again. Maybe for some of us we haven't had it said enough. Our boys had the privilege of spending some up front - close and personal time with these two talented young men. They got to have some real talk about being Pasi...

Good role models are everywhere around us, they usually help us with our work. We can talk to them about stuff that we are uncomfortable with and we can take notes and lessons from them about how to be a good role model. The 1st way to be a good role model is to behave and do appropriate things in front of kids. If you do any rude or cheeky stuff in front of them, they’ll just copy you. That means you’re not being a good role model. The 2nd way to be a good role model is to respect others and treat them the way you want to be treated. If you treat them with no respect then they will treat you the same way you treated them. To wrap it off, you make sure that the words that come out of your mouth are kind and appropriate. If you say kind and appropriate stuff then your mind will start becoming positive. For conclusion, I think that we just need to behave and do appropriate stuff in front of kids. Reason being is because, they are the future of our next generation and what they le...
Catching flounder: _____________________________________________________________________________ This morning 12 of our Pt England student went out to Pt England beach to catch some baby flounder. We walk down and singed a waiata to the students who were catching the flounder. After they catch some flounder the flounder will come back and we will look after them until they grow up. They used a really big net to catch the flounder. We put the flounder into a big water tank with sand at the bottom so the flounder won't die. thanks to Kauri Flats School this wouldn't of happend to Pt England School. ____...

This week the year 7 and 8 students had a great week. It has gone by really quick. School is nearly over and the holidays are almost here. The Year 7 and 8 block is a amazing learning environment with almost up to 150 kids. We are a year 7 and 8 team with very talented kids. Year 7 and 8 is the time where you change your life and the team 5 students are pretty much close to it. They have been amazing at being flexible and showing what awesome looks like. Year 7 and 8 has a lot of new and exiting things. Every day is amazing in this block and some of the reasons are making new connections helping others. Kids at year 7 and 8 start making there own minds up either the bad way or the way that leads to more success. Teachers help kids learn and be on the right path the teachers have done just that. The year is going super fast and the seniors are almost at the end close to becoming a young adult. Year 7 students have just started. The teachers have done good and I ...

Polyfest is a festival that celebrates every culture. The ASB Polyfest features traditional music, dance, and speech. Around Auckland, students come compete on five stages, Maori, cook island, Niue, Samoan and Tongan. There is an another stage call diversity stage, it's for other cultures that are not included in Polynesian. The first activities was AUT, some of the people from AUT university came and explain how important our school is and they ask some us questions. I learnt a lot of things from polyfest. One of them are, when there's a fire going on going in your kitchen you don't use water to settle the fire because water and fire don't go together. So you grab a kitchen cloth and wet it and put it over the pot. We had lots of fun, we thank you to the teachers and the parent helpers who helped us go there.
