Term 1

We had swimming and our school came first because we were  the only school that had year 7,  Tri kids and tech for the year 7.

Term 2

We had speeches, Olympic project, and rugby but it got cancelled. The year 7’s had foodtech and we learnt about astronomy. All the boys was upset because rugby got cancelled.

Term 3

Room 9 to Room 12 had a Disco night. We had football, halloween project, cross country and the best thing was, we have our netbooks for the first time .

Term 4

We had touch, athletics, halloween party and we had film festival and we are going to have our culture groups and our prize giving
and on friday school finished.

The best thing about this year is we got our net book, on our net book we used it for our math and SSR and writing and doing our blogs and that is all I remember for this year and I would like to thank Manaiakalani.

A healthy launch

Today our school went to the hall and we made a sandwich for free. The ingredients were ham, cheese, lettuce, cucumber and carrot. The teacher gave out the food, all the children were noisy.

The food was donated by PaknSave Glen Innes. The sandwich was  good and my friends were acting weird especially Lasalosi.  After that the little kids went back to their class but as for us we had to tidy up, and then Mr Naidoo said, we are going to do a healthy lunch again,. I can't wait for next week to make a healthy lunch.

Speeches

We have been learning to write and present our speeches. We had to persuade the audience to think our way. The Olympics was our theme.
The criteria we had to use to write and present our speech included, an introduction, delivery, content and our conclusion.

In my introduction I caught the audience's attention  because some of them liked rugby. My speech was about rugby. I am learning to write powerful words. On Friday there was some children who had to read their speech. Tan- Charlie looked nervous when he went up to present his speech. He was reading his speech fast, this made it hard to understand. I really liked Blade's speech because there was houmour in it.

In my  conclusion I  should have put powerful words in my speech because some people were not interested.

I WAS SO EXCITED!

Net book roll out...


Hi my name is Jelsma and  I go to Glen Innes school. On Wednesday the 25th of July our school had a netbook launch day. It was amazing  because Rm 12, Rm 11 and Rm 9 were the classes that got netbooks. 
That was the biggest day for our school as this was the first time our senior school would be doing their learning with netbooks . I will always remember the day that I got my netbook.

My class were acting weird especially my teacher. They were screaming too much especially Mrs Barry. 

Our netbook launch certainly was awesome Jelsma. I think I will always remember the day too.
