On Wednesdays Room 12 and 11 go to Tamaki College to make our wood work projects, while Room 11 is going to their class.
On Monday Mr Grundy had dropped of our wood work and the next day we all took photos with our work. Finally we got to take it home. 

Elisabetta Dami Book Week

For the last few weeks Room 12 have been contributing and participating towards our book week poster. Everyone had something to do for our poster and students got to draw pictures, research. We finally did paper folding and made bows for the envelopes. 
Mrs Golder took the poster up to the library and now it's up on the wall.

Touch Rugby

Screenshot 2015-11-18 at 10.05.36.pngGet ready, the ball is coming your way, and off you run to aim your score.

On Thursday November 12th we had sports. It was touch rugby. In Room 12 everyone was so excited to play touch  and when we got to the top field the coach told us his name,  which was Trevor. He then explained what we will be doing.

Coach Trevor is an expert at playing touch rugby, he was old and had some white hair.
We were playing on the field in the front of the junior classes. During that time it was very windy and at the same time it was so hot.

To begin with we had to get into four groups and the coach started us off with a warm up. Next he had explained what a penalty was. It is when a player has done something wrong in the game.

After that we played games but it was similar to doing relays. So we played a game and had to get into two lines and we had to run zig zag around students. As I was playing I felt very happy because there was a lot of action in the game.

Soon we had to get into a circle and coach Trevor passed the rugby ball to some students. Suddenly coach Trevor had said “We are going clockwise.”

It was very scary because there were eliminations.

Lastly we finished off with a game and off we went to class.

Syndicate Assembly Hosted By Room 9

Yesterday we had a syndicate assembly at the multi-purpose room. Room 9 was the class that hosted our syndicate assembly and it was a very short and simple syndicate assembly. We sang Christmas songs. Also there were certificates given out to two students and the two students that earned the certificate from Room 12 were Miria and Damien.

Tyrone Toka

On Friday October the 19th Ruapotaka School had a assembly for a boy from Tamaki College named Tyrone Toka. Firstly his mum was telling us about how he is in the finals and reminding us to vote for her son. Later on he sang a song for our school and so he made us clap along with him. Next we split to go to our Syndicate Assembly.

Cindy and Josh In The House!

The children that were chosen to go to the Pt England show were very joyful because they had been chosen.We had to walk all the way to Point England. Everyone was very interested to see the show about Cinderella but replaced Cindy and Josh in the house. When we arrived to Point England the lady made us sit in rows and treated us like guests. When the show started the lights went out and then it finally started.  

My favourite part of the show was when everyone was dancing to the song called Whip Nae Nae, but it seemed like everyone was enjoying it.

First Time Ever Poetry Recital


On Friday the 6th, we had a Poetry Recital and parents were invited. It started off with Room 1 and all the way to Room 12.
Once Ofa had announced, "Can we please have the Room 12 finalists." my stomach just felt like it had butterflies in it. While Elizabeth and I walked to the front and stood in our places, people were looking at me. It was  so scary that I couldn't speak at all but I had to. 
At the end teachers  presented our certificates to us and we had a photo with the other finalists.
