Sports at Tamaki College!

Writing - Explanation

Every Thursday Class 2,4 and 5 have been walking down to Tamaki College for P.E. It is located in Glen Innes next to the Tamaki R.E.C Centre. We normally have tutors that take our group around and we play games all around the Tamaki College field. For example….. Chain Tag and The Blindfold Challenge. But there are a lot of other games we get to play. We have lovely wonderful tutors too.   

Why do we go down to Tamaki you ask? Well we go to Tamaki to get fit. So for example..... if we wanted to sign up for a sport we want to play. Like... netball you would already be fit and healthy . We walk to Tamaki to play new things and that is such a good exercise. It is really amazing for us to have the chance to go to Tamaki to play some sports. We are all so happy for having the opportunity to play different sports. Maybe you might go to a senior school to play new sports. I wish I could go there everyday.

Our Experience at Tamaki College has been fun. We have 7 groups that have 10 - 12 people per group. It isn’t just boys in one group and girls in the other. It is mixed. We have to participate with boys in our team and the boys have to participate with the girls in there team. In each group we have 2 - 4 tutors. Our leaders are girls and other leaders are boys. I really wanted girls to be my leaders because I like how girls don’t care if we make a mistake. They just keep on encouraging us to get back up and carry on.

At Tamaki we have tutors that take us to different sports. And some of the sports we play are...... umm so hard to choose. Oh yes high jump, chain tag, amazing race, rope jump and other sports like that. Our group did the obstacle course . We had to get with a partner and pick who is going to be blindfolded and one person to guide their partner through the course. My partner was Rave and she was blindfolded. I had to guide her through the obstacle course so she can get to the end. At the end was the scariest bit. Rave had to jump of the deck and land on a soft blue mat. But sometimes people miss the mat. It was so.. hilarious seeing Rave jump. OH man good times . Rave was so… scared jumping while she was blindfolded. But our tutors lead Rave and told her to jump. Then she jumped and all she felt was something soft and she thought it was a bed. The obstacle course was fun and hard. It was all about teamwork and trusting your very own buddy.  

Having fitness at Tamaki College is so important to me and my buddy Nikita. We get healthier and fitter by playing some of the games. It will help us to have lower cholesterol levels in the future. But really we have to go to Tamaki so we can participate in things that we like. For example….. Say I wanted to sign up for a sport like….. Touch. Then if I DO make the team. I would train my hardest and I will try my best to participate with my teammates, and I will not let my teammates and coach down.  

OH and by the way our group is called the Assassins. Just putting that out there. Our group is so amazing. And we get treats at the end of each lesson because we always treat our tutors like we love them. Our tutors told us that we are like a family like. Brothers and sisters related. The leaders lead us to do our best and they do fabulous leadership. They have to tutor us because they are practising leadership for when they grow up and become what they want to be. Most of our leaders are polynesian, Samoan and Tongan.

Do you know what happens at Tamaki College when we do P.E? I thought so. When we play sports we have to listen to our tutors and follow their instructions. Think carefully with what you say and do. And remember to participate in whatever sports you play. When you participate never give up. Always strive to the end and do the best you can. And maybe you can achieve your goals too.  And try your hardest and never give up . So...... just believe in yourself .

Old Old Memories!

Ok, This movie was made when I was like 9 years old and I was in Miss Ouano's Class. We had a vote of what we should animate the lyrics too, and most of the class voted for Swiss Blue Bayou. This is a cool and fun movie. It is very interesting and I just found it when I was just going through vimeo. And it came across my eyes. I had to click on it. Sorry I can't get the video but you can click on the link and it will take you to it.

Here is a Link to the Video.

What Happens During School? What is School?

At Our School it is all about Tiaki Taonga. If you don't know what it means it is Caring. But really at this school participation and co operation are the main words at our school. Mostly in my class we really only try to not be rude and always strive to be what you want to be. 

Every Friday at our school we always have assembly. And at assembly we have a new korero each day. Some of the korero's are about caring and respect. We always have to work hard and as I said strive. Half of the time some people are helping teachers or doing there work. 

Last year in class I was mostly Mr Somervilles Helper. I like helping people and being the best I can be. I also helped Miss Ouano when I was in her class also. I may have helped Mrs M. She is our Music Teacher. I like her because she is fun and I like that I got to help her with anything that she needed help with. 

In our school we have all sorts of teachers. We have normal teachers that teach classes. We also have office workers, social workers, assistant principal, Nice teachers, relievers etc. Some teachers even work as coaches and managers in teams. Most of the men coach rugby, touch, league and softball. Most of the ladies coach netball, sometimes touch and softball, league and maybe even teach volleyball. 

Our principal is Mr Burt a.k.a Russell. I like Mr Burt. I like how whatever we do in school Mr Burt never denies anything that the students do. Mr Burt always comes up with good ideas and thoughts to keep the school running and staying under control.

In Year 6 there are ambassadors. In Year 8 there are perfects. The ambassadors normally travel to Wellington or other countries to present our school and work. They also have to speak for our school wherever they go. The perfects normally help Mr Burt with things and the come up with the koreros that we guess at assembly. They also have to present the korero that they do. 

I am so proud that I go to Point England School. I like how it is a good school. In our school most of the students strive and work hard. But sometimes there are naughty boys or naughty girls in each class that are always bad and never work hard. They always talk when the teacher is talking, they always go on detention sometimes. I can go on and on but I won't. But half of the school is good. 

Kids at school try work hard and never give up. At our school we have a saying that is Champions Never Give Up. It means never give up always strive to get to the end. Never ever give up. Sometimes I give up but teachers say to me never give up always strive. 

Some jobs that I do at school are - 

Maybe Moo Juice Worker

Maybe Barista Worker

Sports Monitor

Maybe a Tux Shop Monitor

 Working as a light person (Tech)
