Padlet George Viral

These two screen shots that I have took is about our writing activity. Our writing activity is about this boy at our school that is our new prefect. A prefect is a person that is a leader of the school students. So last week on Friday this new boy called George just attended Point England School last term and he is now is a prefect. In our literacy class our teacher Mrs Muliaumasealii created a new padlet thing that we haven't used before and wrote question on it about George. We have to answer the question and then take a screen shot and post it to our own blog and write something with it describing what the blog post is about. Here are two screen shots of the padlet thingy.

Immersion Assembly Brainstorm

Good Morning there, as you can see this is my Immersion Assembly Brainstorm. My brainstorm is just telling you guys little information about our School Immersion Assembly and that is all I hope you enjoy my brainstorm.

Fiafia Awesome Night

Oh My Gosh. Last night was just a mind blow. On Thursday night (Last night) our school Fiafia was held on the Netball court and partly on the field. When the Tongan Girls (Us) were getting ready to look so fantastically beautiful I was so so excited and nervous at the same time. Mr Burt called from the speaker and announced that we had only five minutes left to go to the Netball courts now.  Five minutes later I was rushing to put my lipstick on and then I ran back to the hall. Now it was that moment when we have to walk to the Netball courts and sit there until Fiafia starts which was on at 7:00 pm.

While we were walking there I saw the Niue group and the Tongan Boys group walking to the same direction as we were going. When the Fiafia started I was cheering and shouting and just screaming my lungs out. The Senior Kapa Haka really performed so amazingly well for the first performance. My favourite performances were us the Tongan Girls, Tongan Boys, Senior Samoan group, Junior Hip Hop, Niue group, Senior Hip Hop, Cook Island and more.

AIM

Today the year 7 & 8’s had two amazing inspirational guest. At 9:15 this morning our first guest took our street away with her amazing incredible gift of aspiration and inspiration. Her name is Arizona Leger and she is really powerful with her words and actions. She first started talking about her full name and what it means. Then she talked about herself and what her culture is. Arizona just came back from her blasting cool adventure from Disney World. “WOW” Isn’t that just so…I can’t describe how awesome that is. Arizona was telling us about her trip to Disney World in Orlando, Florida. She told us how she got to go there and how she worked really hard there for probably 8 months (That’s what I think I heard). To me Arizona is an Inspirational person. Arizona has a lot of dreams that she had accomplished in a very short time (She even showed us a film from Disney World and the things that she participated in). I would really take that opportunity if somebody offered that to me.

 After Arizona’s speech the other special guest came up and introduced himself to us. His name is Kenese Samia. Kenese talked about himself like how his mother raised him up by herself and how his twin brother past away when he was at a young age. Then Kenese and his mother came to New Zealand because Kenese's mother wanted Kenese to have a good education. He now has a father and he is very pleasured for him to be in his life. Now Kenese is trying to accomplish his dreams like Arizona did.

Term 2 Immersion Assembly

This is a writing of our School Immersion Assembly. Yesterday we had a School Immersion Assembly in the hall for our Topic this new Term. Our topic this Term is As I See It. I hope you like and enjoy my writing.

Point England students and teachers just came back from their two week holiday. Today is the first day of Term 2 and Point England School started the day off with a School Immersion Assembly. We always have a School Immersion Assembly because it is for the Term 2 Topic. Our topic this Term is As I See It. It’s kind of like art.

Team 1 took the stage with what they were learning about. Team 1 is learning about what they’re favourite things are and I think they have to draw their favourite things. Before one of the teachers from Team 1 stood up and talked about what they are about to learn there was a movie showing the Team 1 teachers favourite things. Miss George’s favourite things is her Family, Chocolate,  playing Tennis and her students. Miss Lal’s favourite things is her Culture group (Indian), her son, Chocolate, reading books, Mission Bay’s fountain and her students at school. Miss Peck’s favourite things is her Pandora bracelet and there is some more, but I can’t remember. Miss Wild’s favourite things is her dog Joey, reading books and  her students. Lucky last Miss Dwyer’s favourite things is ballerina and reading books.

Then it was Team 2’s turn. Team 2 are learning about the four seasons and what they are going to make and create from the different seasons and what they are going to look like. Each teacher in Team 2 has a season each and in their class they are going to learn about it and make things for the season. Miss Eadie has Winter to learn about with her class. Miss Szymanik has Summer to learn about with her students which is really Hot! Miss Nalder and her students has Spring to learn about and Miss Tumahi has Autumn to learn about with her kids.

Next up was Team 3. Team 3 are learning about architect. Which means they are looking at different kinds of houses and how they are built and what they are built with. Also they are looking at what shapes and sizes there are on the houses. They are also trying to design some houses.

After Team 3 was obviously Team 4 and it was. Team 4 are looking at Comic Books. This term they are going to look at all the superheroes and look at their costume and how they are designed. They also might be designing their own superheroes and that is all.

My favourite item of all was Team 5. Team 5 are learning about the four waka’s. The four waka’s are all named and here are their names and their meanings. Hine Moana is one waka and it represents the colour blue and the ocean. Hokule’a is another waka and Hokule’a represents the colour Green and its ancestors and the earth. There is another waka and it is called Te Aurere. Te Aurere represents the colour Red and Blood Sweat and Tears. Last, but not least is the waka called Hikianalia. Hikianalia represents the colour Yellow and also the stars. The Team 5 teacher had their speeches and talked about what their waka means and after that they had a race. The race was so funny that’s why Team 5 was my favourite item.  

Week 9/10 Problems

As you can see this is a presentation and on the presentation is some problems from my teacher to us his maths class. This week we have been learning how to use multiplication and division to solve 'Whole Unknown' problems. I am now getting use to it and it is easy for me. I have shown my working out very clearly so you can now try it yourself. Goodbye for today.

Getting Organized For Fiafia

For the past few weeks our whole school has been going to different classes to practice their own dances for Fiafia. The Fiafia is a whole heap of performances made by the Point England students. The Point England students are put into island groups or culture groups and they have their own tutors. The tutors teach them a dance and the students will have to try and learn them off my heart.

I am in the Tongan girls groups and we are learning our way up. We have sized up our costumes and made sure that every single girl has a costume to wear on the night. Me and these other girls hasn't got our costumes yet so we have to wait until somebody buys our costumes. I am feeling so extremely excited about Fiafia because there is heaps of people there (around two thousand or three thousand people) to watch us perform and there is some yummy kai's for you're tummy. We've been practicing very hard on getting on stage and getting off and we've been making sure that we do the right actions at the right time. I hope for us Tongan girls get everything we desperately need.
