Athletics Day - How to achieve your personal best in Athletics!

Your personal best, events like Cross country, Tests or maybe even getting up earlier than you did the day before. But today, Athletics is one main event that us Pt. Englander's achieved in our personal best!

In Athletics there are activities like Javelin, Shot put, Sprints, High Jump, Discus and etc. There are a lot of variety of events you could choose to do your best in, and you could possibly do outstanding in all but personally it's best to train for things you’re least good at it. Working your way up from least favorite events to the events you love the most. Not everything has to be perfect but you always need to try your best in events like these, to satisfy not only you but your family as well!

Another way to achieve your personal best is to always stay in track of your records, So you could obviously know what to work towards for the next event coming up. By keeping your records of the events you took place in, You could compare it to previous years and see if you improved or not. It's also good to keep in track of goals so you could accomplish that and your personal best, that’s a 2 in 1 winning goal. It’ll be easy to write down your record and underline all your goals/training's to see where you’re at.

Always stay calm whenever you’re in and out events, if you were to come last always end with a smile. It’s not always about the placing, it’s about how you did and felt. Not everyone will get what they want but if you simply train and focus on your goals you may have a better chance of coming 1st, 2nd or 3rd.

Well that’s my listing of how to achieve your personal best. Remember it doesn’t have to be Athletics or Cross country, It could simply be a test or grading. Never give up! Always continue on and strive to succeed.

Motivational Talk!

Our morning today, wasn’t that normal at all. In fact we had a inspirational talk with Mr Patterson, He talked to us as to why we aspire to inspire.

During his few things he talked to us about, I picked up some advice that I found more important to me. A few things such as the word Intrinsic, What makes you do good within yourself. I thought to myself as to what makes me do good or bad within me. Things related to being considerate towards other people. Not only thinking about yourself but people who are around you and those who need it more than you do.

Mr Patterson also taught us his formula,  A + I = M. Aspiration & Inspiration to create Motivation. Doing things you love and want to do, Those who inspire you to do it and eventually trying to achieve it in your bestest ability. He explained to us that their are two kind of people in this world, A taker or a giver. Luckily or hopefully most of us are givers.

Being able to give to others, for an example: An 11 year old who gave his lunch and lunch money to a homeless who was apparently crying for a broken marriage, being kicked out of his house and losing his job that he had for a few long years. Basically you could be any age to inspire anyone, even elders. A taker, person who takes but not give in return.  Thoughtless for other people who are unkind by not showing affection to things.

During this morning, I’ve picked up a lot of things. I learnt what I would think or do during situations. My future ahead of me also. Thanks to Mr Patterson I’ve now know what to look forward too but also keeping my head high and striving to succeed.

“If you love what you do, you’ll won’t have to work.”

Labour Day!

Working 10 or more hours in shifts, Having no break at all was such a pain to workers back in the day. October 28th 1890 was the day New Zealand decided to have a public holiday (labour day), It’s one of the day’s our people could take a day off from working. Amazingly Aotearoa was one of many countries to start an 8 hour working rate.

Every 4th Monday of October, Workers get to celebrate the right of working less than 12 hours. Way back in the days, Such as 1890 people didn’t have the option to work less or more than 12 hours and sadly some even worked for up to 18 hours. Samuel Parnell, A man who refused to work 8 hours or more as a carpenter in a shop he worked in.

Samuel Parnell. One of the most important people in New Zealand, most likely known to be a legend for being able to speak up and working only up to 8 hours in carpentry. Always explaining his rights in court, as to why he didn’t work for his normal 10 hour working day and it could and would affect his pay wage. Throughout his years of working, he did not care about a single thing of what a person had to say. He kept his ways and continued on to work his 8 hours.

It was fair enough, New Zealand had the right of claiming the right to have an 8 hour working day, but they decided to support Mr Parnell’s idea of working a full 8 hour day. Wellington judge decided for everyone in New Zealand and possibly other countries to have the right of being able to work 8 hours.

Now you know why Labour day is now here today, maybe consider a day to celebrate it yourself as it is a special day to remember. What does Labour day mean to you? Well you now know the reason so why not celebrate!

Musical Madness! - Immersion Assembly.

Term 4 has arrived and our learning intention is now Musical Madness! As our usual start to the day for Pt England school we always host an immersion assembly, Explaining what each team is learning towards. Laughter was shown and everyone talking about what fun they’re going to have throughout the term. Well this is what I thought about it all!

Most Informative:

I reckon Team 5 had the most informative show. Throughout the whole item, they explained how they felt towards the movie that had either a song or tune to it. Weather it was scary, happy or sad they’d explain their thoughts to us audience. Showing us what Team 5 is learning towards Term 4

Most Entertaining:

The one show that caught my attention was Team 3! They were hilarious in their movie. It showed them having a conversation using songs they’d listen to on a normal day out, Not only they showed having a conversation but they also showed their emotions and feelings towards on what people had to say to them. It was as if they were actually talking to each other normally.

What do you want to find out more about this term?:

Throughout this term, I’d like to find out more about what song would affect me. Weather it would make my emotions change or will I still have the same feeling throughout the whole song, By the end of this term I would want to explain my feelings with the song I listened to and why it does.

Tongan language week!

WALT: Review explanation writing: Identify the structural features of an explanation text.

Speech - Thoughts.

WALT: We are reviewing how to produce a quality blog post and comments.

Last Friday team 5 had three students from each class present a speech that they've been working on for the past four weeks. We called it "the finals" for saying speeches, It was an amazing experience while

watching other students around my age present their speech so confidently.

Most appealing to you? and Why?

From my perspective, Amelia Feleti's speech was the most appealing to me. Amelia's speech was about how her grandma passed away and she realized that her job wasn't the reason why she was happy, It was because her grandma was able to see Amelia and her siblings everyday. She used descriptive words which made it more interesting for me to listen, I personally think it was emotional for her to read but she had enough confidence to push through and continue on with her amazing speech. I definitely think she has a chance of winning the speech contest.

Which speech was the most entertaining? Most thought Provoking?

Mubashshir Shafil was the most entertaining from my point of view, He had funny points/reasons and also added a little of actions to spice it up. Mubashshir speech was about: If I were a president for a day, He'd do many things while becoming one as he is a president for just ONE day. Muba had plans, He would show his kindness around and make sure others get the same amount, People are treated the
same and not valued differently just because of the way they look. I reckon Mubashshir had a lot of reasons and it did give me thoughts of what I could of done.

If you were to give another speech in literacy what are 3 things you would work on improving?

If I were to give another speech I would work on my topic, reasons/points and projecting my voice louder. I thought my topic was good but not interesting enough for others to listen to, I needed to work on explaining my points more and add a little bit more  of descriptive words. I think I'll  need a bit more practice as I still find it hard to speak in a normal class of 20-30 kids.

Throughout this time it was a great experience to have, I found it interesting and entertaining as not one person didn't give up on saying their speech. From my thoughts I definitely think this would give them a perspective of what they would do with this talent in the future. Overall I thought it was amazing, Everyone was great!

Let's start old school again!

WALT - I will identify the different places speeches/talks are given and how they are designed for delivery

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Over the years of attending Pt England school the technology we use digitally has grown bigger and better since 2010. Pencils and Paper to Ipads, Phones, Computers and etc. Don’t you think we need to start doing old school again? I mean have you seen our hand writing lately, It's hideous!

My point is. Year 8 students have two terms to come before heading off to college and with the writing we all have, The college teachers are going to be gobsmacked with our work. In college, Handwriting will become a common thing and you’ll definitely need it for the subjects you choose. So better start practicing now cause time does go by fast.

Also, I personally think in the future things may change especially our electronics we use everyday. Sooner or later our handwriting will no longer be as common as it is now but why not keep the old trend going? Start it all up again, It just takes a small group of children to start writing by hand.

You never know one day the power all around the world may go out in a flash. The electronics we use wouldn’t be any help, now would it? Except for a piece of paper and pencil, Now when you’re in this situation you have to know how to write/draw! Especially for it to at least look decent for others to understand from what you're trying to say.

Now you see what the consequences are if you don’t have decent handwriting? Don’t be ashamed of what it looks like, Just know that you’re not the only one. As you can see Handwriting is very important, Trust me. You’ll desperately need it during college.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Over the past few weeks, Room 3 literacy have been focusing on writing our very own speech about thing's we think we should start doing. For me, I did "Let's start old school again." The reason why I did it is because I noticed that most of our pupils in Team 5 have well from what I would say Ugly hand writing, I mean even I do! So I list my reason of why we should. Check it out!

Immersion Assembly - Guardians of the Galaxy!

 WALT -  I will identify the different places speeches/talks are given and how they are designed for delivery

Protecting and helping the earth improve in a better kind. Finding out new and interesting information of what it’s like above us way high, What’s beyond the clouds we see almost every day? Exactly why Pt England school is studying about it. Each team has a different learning intention, we all shared what we’re learning towards at Monday's Immersion Assembly.

Guardians of the galaxy it is!

What am I looking forward to this terms topic?

Towards this terms topic I’m looking forward on answering the questions I have in mind, The different features in space. Exactly why and how is the oxygen in space different to planet earth? Well hopefully at the end of term 3 I have the answer to that.

Most Informative performance.

From my perspective Team 4 had a really informative short clip that was presented, It had a lot of detail of what they're learning about this term. Since earth is slowly dying, What’s another planet to keep us humans still standing? Well 3 teachers of Team 4 attempted to travel to 3 different planets to see if it was possible to breathe and live on different land. Sadly all 3 attempts failed. So, basically their learning about survival on different planets, if we could adapt to it or not and the big Mars mission!

Most Entertaining performance.

Of course, Team 5 was the most entertaining performance of the day. The reason why because it had a lot more enthusiasm as they were the only team that did a Live performance. 4 teachers of team 5 holding musical instruments surrounding the lead singer Mrs Judd. They also had a lot of information in their song that they presented but some parts of the song I couldn’t hear due to Mrs Judd singing fast.

2017 Year 8 Camp.

2017 Year 8 Camp!

On the 24th - 26th of May we have our annual Year 8 Camp! We had the opportunity to camp at the Kauaeranga Valley Christian Camp grounds. Throughout the year 8 students, We were all set up into different teams. Thames, Coromandel, Kauri and Kauaeranga. Lucky me I was in Kauri! In Kauri there was 6 in each team, Kauri A & B. Each team had almost the same amount in their own team.

Out of all of the activities I got to say I enjoyed Go Karts and Paintball. Paintball was the first activity we had for our second day of camp, It was fun. We all had energy and were pumped to run around and shoot each other. It felt like betrayal shooting my own teammates but I had fun, Heaps of fun. Until out of nowhere, I got shot in the neck by Christopher! I did have a little sook but I just wanted my revenge. Sadly I didn’t get it but I will one day, hopefully. Other than that, I had the best time with my teammates alongside of me.

Go Karts, Our second to last activity to accomplish on our task. We all had the chance to go around the track once, To get the hang of things and how it feels to ride one. Once our whole team had one turn we then had the choice to either have a timer or have two more times going around doing whatever we want. I chose a timer, Just so I could beat the previous time record. All I had to beat was 39 seconds, It was pretty easy as it was so fast. I was so excited when I making going at a good time, Zooming past cone by cone. Going around the bend then boom! 38 seconds on the clock, Even I was surprised cause I thought I was as slow as a snail.

After a couple of days as we got back home, I started to miss Kauaeranga. The beautiful view and the activities, It was a once and life time thing. It was fun, Getting to know people I don't usually hang out with at school. We worked as a team and we humbled ourselves even more, I reckon we even got a little closer than before camp.

Immersion Assembly - Term 2

Term 2, Day one. We kicked off the day with our original Assembly with the year 7&8's, Working towards the goals we need to achieve throughout the week. Throughout the school we all collaborate in the start of the term and share what we're learning towards to the end of the term, Team 1 - 5 all had an act or movie to present. Interesting enough? Keep up and I'll tell you what we're learning towards.

Team 5 was up and as the students cheered for the fellow teachers that were going to act. I knew this was going to be hilarious when the theme song of Bob the builder started playing as Mr Wiseman, Mrs Judd, Miss Tapuke and Mrs Ilaoa walked onto the stage. The Teachers started off with dancing away on the stage, One by one going to the back of the stage except for Mr Wiseman. Mr Wiseman explained who he was, He was Bob the builder. As he sang the Bob the Builder theme song, Terribly! but in funny ways. We all joined to support, We laughed at the facials he was making the moves that he had. From my perspective it was my favorable act.

The other 3 teachers came popping out one by one from the back stage complaining about things they have noticed around Team 5, Mrs Judd wanted to clean up the soil that was left over and our garden rules. Miss Tapuke had a problem with cushions, Messy piles and strings hanging out. Then Mrs Ilaoa had an issue with the bags owned by the students in team 5, They were all left on the ground no where to put them at all. It's same with the other problems, They wanted useful things to use for team 5 space.

So? What we're learning towards in Team 5 is to create something useful we could use in Team 5, Helpful things. I've got an idea already in mind but that's another story, What could we use to help Team 5 improve into something better? Little things can be helped by using big ideas and us children have a lot of ideas planned already. Stay tuned to see what we have set for Term 2.

Sentence Types

This term we learnt about simple, compound and a complex sentence. We had to write sentences for an example of this sentences, I wrote these sentences to show my understanding of these types. You should look at the presentation and see my proper understanding of these.

My Idea of a fun weekend - Writing

What's your idea of a fun weekend? In Auckland, New Zealand there are many fun activities to do. To experience every beautiful thing around you. Lakes, Beaches and much more, You could possibly go anywhere while having the best time of your life.

My perfect idea of a fun weekend is waking up early to a big breakfast to kick off the day. Bacon, Eggs and a Milo for the drink. Such an exceptional way to fill your tummy, Delicious and yummy.  Always eat heaps, To have enough energy for the day ahead. Also drink a glass of water before going out, Keep hydrated and stay healthy.

The first activity  I would prefer doing is paintball, Paintball is just placed around the corner from the airport. It’s so fun running around and shooting your opponent, My aiming is pretty bad but at least I’m still having fun. You could possibly do this with any friends or family, As long as they don't kill your buzz of having a fun time.

I don't have much but I am sure that you’ll have the best time, Maybe you could tell me about your idea of a fun weekend. Remember, Their are a lot of things in New Zealand to do.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Whats you idea of a fun weekend? Hanging outdoors with your friends or staying inside and spending quality time with your family. Their are many opportunities of having fun outdoors and indoors, Well this term one of our writing task was to explain what our idea of a fun weekend is to us.

Writing - Who my role model is and why?

Shes quite an old lady. As she already crossed seventy five years, her years of working and traveling have bent her back a little but it's definitely not stopping her from doing her daily activities. She’s short, thin and almost grey haired but she's also my role model, My nana! Let me tell you why my nana is my special role model.

My nana is very affectionate and caring. As her granddaughter I always look forward to watch our favorite shows on tv with her. My nana always tells me what she thinks is going to happen in the show, Makes me laugh because we always end up arguing. Our favourite show to watch together is home and away and shortland street, Our bonding by just watching and arguing about what's gonna happen is so hilarious.

As being the youngest out of her grandchildren, My nana does tend to overload my pocket with money. She’s always on my case about having lunch or money, If I don't have either two she’ll probably quickly do me a quick sandwich and chuck 5 dollars into my hand while she's at it before I head off to school. That’s what I absolutely love about her she loves me as much as she loves watching her tv shows. Just kidding, Of course she loves me way more than anything in this world because I am the favorite you know. Well that's what I think.

I love how my nana is always there for me, When I’m down or need to some supporting words she is always there to lift me up. 12 years straight that my nana has never let me down, I love her comfort and warmth I get from her. If I’m either sad, She’ll make me something to eat and talk to me just to make sure I’m alright. My nana is the best nana ever! No one could ever replace her.

Well, That’s the end. You now know who my role model is. She’s the best out! I love my nana as much as I love my food, Stay tune for more writing of mine!

Cross Country!

WALT: Show our Audience with our words rather than directly tell.

My heart was pounding as I head Mr Jacobsen announce the year 7 girls, waiting at the back of the courts in the hot bright sun. Lining up heading towards the start line, my stomach started turning in all kinds of ways. I was excited at first but then I felt really nervous and sick.

As we were positioning ourselves on the start line, we waited for Mr Burt´s call. Waiting and waiting not knowing when he's gonna shut the clappers hard, as soon as I put my leg out BANG! The clappers went. I jogged the first part of the race and I was already feeling tired, I was huffing and puffing and out of breath but at least I was leading the girls. That's what I thought, as I heard my friend Angelica behind me. I was slowing down and we weren't even that close to the reserve yet, I tried my hardest to stay by her and I was doing a great job at it.

Angelica was the leader of the year 7 girls coming first place. At that time I was already coming fourth, two of the girls passed me. As I was getting close to finishing my first lap I sprinted before the year 8 boys went. I knew then I shouldn't of done that because I felt exhausted, my legs were aching and my heart was burning I felt like giving up but then I wanted to make my family proud and finish thing properly. So I kept on going, keeping a good pace of speed. As I was getting close to the reserve my friend Lani caught up to me, we both encouraged each other to keep going every time we slowed down.

We both tried to get past Aysha but she was just too far. As we were getting closer to the end of the reserve I started to sprint, Lani also started to sprint too. It was like I was just racing her, as I was passing her I decided to slow down that wasn't really a great idea, Lani zoomed passed me crossing the line first. I was shocked but also proud of my friend Lani as she finished the race and didn't give up on beating me.

As I crossed the line I hugged Lani, congratulating her. We both felt tired and exhausted but we were both proud of ourselves for finishing things off properly, I thought I could of done better in cross country but fifth place is just as good. Cross Country was a good day and all my friends and I couldn't stop blabbing about it, It was great!

Hiwi the Kiwi!

We had an awesome performance yesterday morning from Hiwi the kiwi. We sang, danced and laughed along with each other, learning about Kai Moana (Food from the sea).  We are now all writing a story about fish to the best we can. There's a brand new fishing rod waiting for the bestest story in the school, How Exciting.

Mr and Mrs Minstral taught us many things about fish, Such as: How you hold it? What to use? and What Size does the fish has to be? Mark taught us, If we ever catch a saltwater fish always use a wet towel so the fish doesn't get any disease. Then after place the fish inside a bucket of salt ice, to prevent from the fish rotting. Also when we catch a fish they have to be a certain size, so if it's too small you have to place the fish back in the sea for it to grow and if it's so big then you'll have to chuck it back in the water for the fish to breed. Mark said ¨You kids can also teach this to your parents,¨ Even though my parents and I don't go fishing I was still interesting in telling them of what I learnt today.

Mark also sang us a song about Kai Moana fish in the sea. It was pretty catchy and Chrissy had an amazing dance moves, the song had a definition to it. It meant fish for the future and your whanau, fish needs a good environment in their habitats. Meaning we have to take care more care of the sea, picking up rubbish around our area and not letting in plastic to float around. The fish isn't the only species that is in harm, the black bird petril is also near to extinction. There is only a little amount of these types of birds and there really native to New Zealand, polluted water will harm fish and birds. Killing our two main key animals, we need birds for them to navigate us to where the fish is or where is the closest land when we're sailing and we need fish for us people who love to eat it, it helps our health.

When fishing Mark said we always need to wear are life jacket, so when we accidently fall in the sea we can float instead of sinking but it seems to not concern some people around the world, life jackets are designed to keep you from drowning. It's better if you have a life jacket on instead of leaving it in front of the boat because you wouldn't have enough time to grab it, put it on and strap it tight to your upper body. Overestimating the ability to swim is a major factor when choosing to go without a life jacket. The reality is that no matter how good you are at swimming when faced with fear your mind may react differently than you think it would causing you to have less ability to swim well.

Doing all these things will help you fish more better, my family and I may not fish as often but it is still important to tell them. These things can save lives and help your knowledge, this information will help you know more about fish and when you're on the boat. Life jackets and pollution is very important because life jackets can save your life and pollution can kill animals that is native to our country.

Explanation: How our muscles work

WALT: Last week, in reading, we investigated what muscle fatigue was and why our muscles get fatigued. This week you are going to investigate and write about How Our Muscles Work.

We have more than 600 muscles in our body! Even if we´re bigger or smaller, we all have the same amount. Our muscles do everything from pumping blood throughout your body into just lifting your heavy bag. You control some of your muscles, while others Like your heart and brain without you thinking about them at all. We are focusing on these questions, How do our muscles work? How many muscles do we have? and Why are muscles important for our body? This is what I'm going to explain to you readers.

Muscles need a lot of things to work, Such as: Healthy food, Exercise and Stretches. Healthy food is very important for your health and muscles, getting the right protein and vitamins helps your muscles relax and strengthen them more. Our muscles have three main muscles, the cardiac muscle, the skeletal muscle and the smooth muscle. The cardiac muscle known as the heart muscle, this muscle is found of the walls that protects our heart. Cardiac muscle pumps blood from our heart to around our body, the heart can also be called the myocardium. The skeletal muscle, It is a form of striated muscle tissue which is placed under the voluntary control of the somatic nervous system. Most of the skeletal muscle is attached to bones by bundles of fibers known as tendons. The smooth muscle works by themselves, it is also called voluntary. This muscle is used when you feel like spewing and it forces the food up into your mouth pushing it out.

Your brain and heart is another way of how your muscles work. The brain sends messages to different parts of your body and also receives messages from our muscles, For an example: When you feel pain in your muscles, the muscle sends a message to the brain detecting that you have pain in the particular muscle. The heart is protected by the muscle of Cardiac, The Cardiac muscle is the walls of the heart. It surrounds the heart, the muscle pumps blood to the vessels of the left/body/systemic and right/lungs circulatory systems. The cells that constitute cardiac muscle are called cardiomyocytes or myocardiocytes. The myocardium is the muscle tissue of the heart, and forms a thick middle layer between two layers. The outer epicardium and the inner endocardium.

My body is very important to me and I learnt a lot of things about my body and my muscles. Its helps me think about what's good for my muscles and how my muscles work, I learnt a lot of new words and its definition. I think I explained how our muscles work really well, and hope to do more explanations. I´ve learnt a lot during this task, working on how our muscles work had taught me a lot of things that I didn't know.

My body is very important to me and I learnt a lot of things about my body and my muscles. Its helps me think about what's good for my muscles and how my muscles work, I learnt a lot of new words and its definition. I think I explained how our muscles work really well, and hope to do more explanations. I´ve learnt a lot during this task, working on how our muscles work had taught me a lot of things that I didn't know.
