My Reflection On This Year

I have had many highlights here at this school, some bad, most good! I have had the opportunity of being apart of many things this year. Which I will forever remember. 

I will cherish everything my teachers and friends have taught throughout my journey here at Saint Pius X. 
Thank you.

PAT - Maths Test

This morning Room 7 had another test which was the PAT Maths. I wasn't looking forward to this test. I was so nervous because I hadn't practised that much on my maths which I was disappointed about. But I tried my best to complete the test. Next time I need more practice on my maths and I'll make sure I'll do it.

E-Asstle Writing Test

Last week on a Friday, Room 7 had an E-Asstle Writing Test that took 40 minutes.  I was so not looking forward for this test, because I needed to practice more on my writing but I tried my best. Next time I need more practice on my writing when I am at home. 

Touch - Kiwi Sport

Touch is our kiwi sport for this term.  I'm enjoying playing touch and learning skills that I haven't learnt.  However I think today's Session was better. I'm so looking forward for the next session next week.  

Holiday Recount

I had a awesome holiday.

To start off my day, I had to clean up the house and wash the dishes which I found boring. After cleaning up, I decided to take my Dog Stella for a walk around the block. Once I got back with her, we played in the back yard. Afterwards I left Stella to have a rest. So I decided to go into my cousin’s room and play games with them. I kept on looking out of the window to see if she was asleep and she wasn't. I could see her eyes open but lying down. Then all of a sudden I could hear Stella barking, I jumped up, went and have a look to see why was she barking and 3 other dogs were there. They started to play.  I found it cute when they were playing together.

I had a feeling that they would be friends. I cuddled the smallest dog out of 3 of them because it looked so cute and fluffy. Next I went and fed them with Dog Biscuits. It was starting to get dark. So I went and took the 3 dogs back to their home which was at the other side of the road. Lastly I went to kiss Stella to say good night before I went for a shower.

I really had a great day spending time with my Dog Stella.

I feel that she is my best friend and I can’t wait for the next holidays to come so that I can spend more time with her.

Welcome To My Learning Journey For Term 4

Grandparents Mass

Today the whole SPX School attended to the grandparents mass first thing in the morning. It was lovely to see some grandparents attending the mass, but unfortunately my grandpa and grandma couldn't make it. It was good to see some students reading their prayer together with their grandparents. Seeing the grandparents singing along with us students was amazing. To ended of with our lovely Mass, all the grandparents got blessed from Father.  I had such a great day.  For me today was one of my favourite day at school so far.

Family and Friends - God Had Created

Learn: I can find sign that helps me to know that God is present in my family and friends.

How does Families and Friends remind you of GOD?

To me everyone in this world are so lucky that we are blessed with families and friends. Having families and friends are special to me because they support me and help me whenever I am in need. When Families and Friends are around me, it reminds me of God because I feel that God is close to me and I feel I am blessed

Don’t you think he or she is beautiful?

YES, God is beautiful because we are all blessed with the many gifts he have given to us, and all his creations are all beautiful. He has blessed me with wonderful friends and families that are there to make me smile when I am sad.

3 Groups Of Sacraments

Sean Shark Week

I think that Sean is a brave kid to be interest in Sharks when he was 3 years old. Now he’s 10 years old he wants to stop people cutting the Shark's fin.   When he grows up he want’s to be Shark Biologist. Sean is a great kid to strive for his dreams and future. What he likes about Shark is that they are magnificent creatures. Sean explains what Shark finning is. Shark finning is when you cut the fin and throw the leftover body back to the sea so that it could sink toward the bottom where it is eaten by other fish. He was confident at speaking of what he was saying.

Hockey Session

On a Wednesday morning, we had our first kiwi sport for Term 3, Hockey. Room 7 was the first class to begin with the Hockey Session. We head into the hall because it was raining outside. The Instructor split us into 3 groups.  First we started with warm ups before we began our lessons. Running to the end of the hall was the first warm up we did. Following on, we did monkey crawls. Afterwards we begin to start with the skills, first was the Marble. We started to do competitions as well, to see who would get the most score of doing the balancing the ball on the stick. One student got 101. From then we got into 2 groups because we were going to play a game of Hockey. He calls a number and that amount of people have to run and try get the ball into the goal net. At the end he calls everyone to come in, my group was trying to get the ball into the other goal net because we haven’t had a score yet. Our Session had ended, we all said “Thank you” to the instructor.

Rainbow Fish

I think that the Rainbow Fish did the right decision to share his scales

Reasons

* So he could have friends to play with

* Because he felt happier before he was.

* So that the Rainbow Fish won’t feel lonely

Therefore I think what Rainbow Fish have done was the right decision to share his scales with his friends instead of keeping it all to himself. Sharing his Scales away was a good idea because he think about others before himself.
