Thank you Johnson & Johnson and also The Variety Club

Thank you for taking the time to give us presents and I would like to thank Johnson and Johnson and Motat and also The Variety Club for making this happen. I’d also like to thank all the people who took time off their jobs to rap us the presents. I really appreciated it and I will try and treasure my present as long as it lasts.

Its has been a very cool experience for me because I have never experienced people giving us presents during school randomly. It was such a great day being given a mystery present it was wrapped perfectly I loved it. Thank you very much to all the helper that made this happen and have a happy Christmas.

Action World

Pulling up in front of action world our eyes expanded as we glared at the really towering obstacles we could do. So we walked in towards the gate one by one as all of us entered we all felt like running around like mad people but we had to stay. The teachers introduced us to all the people in charge of their obstacles. We split into four groups hopped in a line and went off . First We tried the high fall after a couple of turns the horn blew and we went to the next obstacle.

Next we tried the rock climbing wall but before we could climb to the very top and ring the bell we had to practise falling on our backs. After everyone had a go we switched to the next obstacle and on and on until we had our little lunch break. While stuffing food in our mouths they opened the high wire and the jousting bridge.

After a while of eating my stomach was full and they announced that we could have free time for the rest of the day. So off we ran running like a herd of wild animals jumping on all the obstacles we wanted to stay the whole day but we knew that we couldn’t. I tried out the crazy ladder and failed but I wanted to try and finish it but again I failed.

Next I went to the jungle swing one swing then the second and then the third when I reached the fourth my arms started to strain my grip was worn out and then suddenly my hands just slipped and I fell down to the soft mats. After another while of playing around we had

When I was new at point england school I had received a chromebook for the year to use to do work.Having the opportunity to have a chromebook/netbook was a huge experience for me.It really helped me to imrove in my learning and others as well.

-The point england way


-Be a role model


-Treat others respectfully(especially elders)


-Be honest


And also to be kind to others that are around you.


I have learnt many things from my family which was to be humble,to listen to your teacher,Show some manners,help out,don't be cocky,sharing is caring(NOT LUNCH) and I have made many connections around the world by our blogs for the past few years.


I have helped out other people by teaching them new things that they have not known.

Nelson Mandela, the man who fought against racism. He wanted the blacks africans to be treated equally with the whites. Nelson Mandela was known for making equality between the white and black people. His real was  Rolihlahla mandela he was really determined to make equality.

Swimming

For the past two weeks we have been swimming at the YMCA pools in Glen Innes. But sometimes I would not bring my togs because the lack of memory. Strolling to the pools we had to take in the burning sun. First we would walk towards our instructors and wait for their command.  But before we could do anything we had to see how good we were at swimming. After most kids finished we all split into groups.

Splashing the water everywhere the instructor told us to kick our feet as fast as we could and our arms would move at a medium pace. Back and forth we went trying our hardest to do our best. Sometimes we would give up and stand up in the pool. Glaring at the other side of the pool we could just feel that relief that we would have a brake.
