Holiday Highlights !

“Hooray” I said happily as Term 3 had finished, no more work and no more school just FUN. Waking up at 12:00 p.m was a great way to start the next day for me, as I always have to get up early for school. As the days past through and Monday came up I was guttered cause I had to get up early for camp, and I knew we were going to wake up early for the rest of the week.

My first highlight was Willow Park, everyone who paid to go went. As we got to the camp site, I had a feeling it was going to be great. We ran around the site to get to know the place more it was very tiring because we had to do an activity with it. A little while later we had lunch, then enjoyed the rest of the week.

My second highlight was the Movies. I watched Foot Loose with my cousin Bobbi - Grace. First we went to buy our tickets for the movie then we went to the food court and ate. When we got there we saw our friends Cruz and Jordan, so they bought tickets as well and watched the movie with us. It was a pretty good movie.

My last but not least highlight was going to town to watch the Rugby World Cup Finals against New Zealand and France at the cloud. I went with my cousin Bobbi - Grace, and Kathleen. It was crowded but funny watching everyone goofing around and being silly all the time. I was so sad that I didn’t get to watch the game cause I was at the back so I couldn't see the screen. But at the end New Zealand won for the second time.

The holidays were better than the last few terms. I enjoyed this holiday for the first time. It was lots of fun and I really enjoyed my self at last.

Term 3 Highlights

So far term 3 has been the most incredible term of the year. This term brings back some happy moments. We have been involved in a lot events such as AFL, Silly Sports, Badminton, The Rugby World Cup, our Rugby games and many more.

My first highlight is learning about the Rugby World Cup. It is very cool that the Rugby World Cup is held is New Zealand. It is easier to go to all the games. Out of all the 20 teams that is in the Rugby World Cup I am supporting Samoa. But in class I’m learning about the team’s Italy and Argentina.

This term we have been doing sporting lessons. But now we are doing AFL (Australian Football League). Every week we have sessions with Michael and Lucy the instructors who have taught us new techniques about the game. Our first session was about getting in to it and making sure we got it. In the next few weeks we actually played a little game of Kiwi kick, it is another version of AFL but with New Zealand rules.

My last highlight is Tamaki Tech. This term I was in Electronics. The thing I enjoyed about Electronics was doing experiments. The only thing I made was a burglar alarm. But on the last week of the term we swapped and now I am in Science.

This term I had fun doing a lot of awesome events and games with my friends and class. I mostly enjoyed the AFL. At the end of this week I think mostly everyone has enjoyed this term like me.
