This Thursday, our class has our first game of  indoor football . Last year we only got to round two and room 8 won . Hopefully we will do better then last year. I think we will, do you ? i do. In our syndacite, Room 13 has already won their first game, we still have our class and room 15 to play. Wish us luck !

2 weeks ago, Room 14 participated in the Dodgeball cemi finals, against room 13. Winning, we scored a spot in the finals against room 10, it was a short game and an easy win , but after the short 3 minutes we ended up winning the Tournament and for a prize, the Dodgeball trophy now sits on our windowcill. We won all of our previous games, being un-deafeated. All 3 classes in Pouakai syndicate were in the semi's , now Kakapou and Pouakai are drawing in syndicate points.

Peparing for assembly.

Lately, Grace H, Grace F and I have been practising a litte something for our upcoming assembly in September. Call your Girlfriend originally by Robyn , but performed by Lennon and Maisy is the song we will be singing and doing the beat to, using small containers. It has taken a small amount of time o learn , and match the beat to the singing , but we're getting there. We've memorized the words, and the beat, so now all we have to do is practise practise practise. Practise makes perfect ! Wish us luck for our next assembly ;)

Quote four:

“Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.”
― Albert Einstein


What i think it means:


You're riding a bicycle. Moving through life. If someone is trying to push you off the bike, keep moving. Keep your balance, and move on. Don't get stuck in a traffic jam of drama.

“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.”
― Oscar Wilde


What i think it means:


You're unique , there's only one of you, be yourself, and don't try copy other people. You should be proud of who you are, and not want to be anyone else. Don't try compare yourself to anyone, you are beautiful. You think you're ugly ? Tell me, what is the meaning of beauty ? Why can't we all nust be differnet, uniquness isn't bad .

Quote two:


“Without leaps of imagination, or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning.” -Gloria Steinem


What i think it means :


Humans , we need dreams.. need hopes, and we need wishes. Without these , there is no excitment or point of life. We need these things, so we can set a dream a goal or a wish in life, and go for it .
“I had a dream, and i went for it.” these exact words were said by Reece Mastin , he had a dream to be a singer, he showed up on xfactor and gave it his all, in the end he turned out winning the competition , and becoming famous. Whether you want to be an artist, builder, doctor, dentist or a zoo keeper ! It's always possible , just go for it, give it all it takes, and don't give up .
