This week we had athletics, I was very scared at first but once I finished my run, all my frustration was gone. We were all training up for it. All year 7's and year 8's had to do 100, 200, 400 metres. First we had to do 400 m since it was stupendously hard, we had to do two laps around. After that we did 100 metres, it was fun doing that one because all you have to do is just run straight. My legs was pumping constantly, as I was running. The 200 metes was kind of easy and hard because you have to sprint the whole way round. I am pretty happy with myself of what places I came when I was doing athletics.
Today certificates was handed out to the people that tried there best at athletics. I was one of them, I came Second for 100m and Third for 200m. I tried my best at every single one but I was proud of myself. Even thou it was tough I still believe in myself that I can make in the athletics team.
Ruapotaka School was very lucky to go to Sylvia park, because we had an opportunity to be apart of the Maniakalani community. Every schools from the Tamaki area, made a movie for the film festival. Maniakalani is an every year celebration for all schools in this area to make a movie. Our movie was about Rugby Values, it was all about how you can corporate with others and have teamwork with others. We had two people that had confidence from our class that represented our movie who were Vaimoana and Meafou.
My favourite movie was Tamaki primary, because they had inspirational people that could sing and dance.
Hope you enjoy our movie !
Today we had our last test for the week, which was reading, we had to replace words with a similar one. We had academic words that, we didn't know. The meanings of the words can be similar to words that we dont know. Also I felt very pleased about doing it, and hopefully I get a better result.
On Monday night , there was a game between Scotland vs Tonga. Tonga started off with the kick off and, Scotland when up running to get a try. Tonga went up to them and started to tackle really hard. Scotland had really fast runners to run up to them, but the thing about Tonga was that they had really good players from the rugby league and new players too. The total score was 4 - 54 to Tonga, for over all the winners of the game was Tonga. Congratulations to Tonga !
Today we did, tests. We did our "MATHS" and "SPELLING". For maths we did our basic facts, which was addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. For spelling we spell't year 3 - 9 words and, I spell't most words all right to year 3 and 7 but it just got harder when it got to the year 8 and 9 words. I feel most confidence in my spelling but not so much on my maths . I hope my results, becomes better than term 2.
On Wednesday we went to tech and made take way boxes, we had to design it so that we can make our own restaurant. We designed it by during pictures relating to the topic of our restaurant. I dured a burger and fries on it so that people notice that there food are in it. I like designing food boxes with Mr Penida.
