The Good Times Ahhh!!


In the recent past, two weeks ago to be exact, we said goodbye to a wonderful group of caring students from Tamaki College. They willingly put aside their class time and worked with us. Our leaders were kind, even though we were not always on the right track. They encouraged us to do some hair-raising activities that challenged us to trust our team mates.
My favourite activity was the orienteering, because we had to search for letters and put them together to make a word. This helped us to learn our way around the college, making it the best activity out of all the sessions.
We played a tiring game of bullrush, and I’m quite sure that I lost more than a couple of kilos. I am one skinny dude now! This helped me prepare for athletics and cross country.
I wish we could of kept on working with these kind, hard working students.

You Better Believe Our, Bigger,Better,Stronger,Faster, Topic This Term

My ears were stuck to Mr Burt, tuned in to the announcement that he was about to proclaim. I was full of anticipation, and when I finally heard what our topic would be, I knew instantly that it was going to be exciting! The name of our topic…(drum roll please) is Bigger, Better, Stronger, and Faster.
So this is how all the hullabaloo began. After relaxing in the holidays, on the 2nd of May, all of our teachers dressed up crazy, trying to explain the schools new topic for this term. It will be fascinating because we will get to learn about advanced technology. I’ve got the feeling that I am going to have an extremely awesome term.
