Swimming Sports!
The smell of chlorine in the building and tons of children everywhere. Oh no! My turn. We were all confident in ourselves and were ready to go. BEEP! that's the buzzer time to go! As I glided through the clear, pleasant water, I could overhear all the screaming and yelling from the benches. First two lengths done, another three more to go.
One more heat to go. As I got to to the end of the lane, I was full of joy because I was finally done! Then I realised I still have one more heat to go. AHH! Is this like a ongoing race or something? What's your favourite stroke? Do you like swimming? I do, kind of. Comment down below.
All of my races were finished. The first thing I got was my towel. I dashed to the changing room and got changed as fast as I could. All of Moana Syndicate met outside on the field. Next minute Koka Ngaire called my name for the role. We hopped on the bus and drove back to school.

First Weeks Back!
We've made an amazing start to this year. This last few weeks have been crazy! We've been doing Quickwrites, swimming, buzz groups, art pieces, road patrol refresher, weetbix tryathlon, we learnt all about Waitangi Day, We all got our chromebook licenses.We've learnt how to take care of our chromebooks (Kawa of Care) and so much more.
In the first week we played People Bingo and we learnt more about each other. I think we're all getting the hang of how to work around here.
The year 6's all get a opportunity to go surfing and learn more about it. And our school is very lucky because we are right opposite the beach. We also had Sonia Keepa come and tell the year 6's about ocean safety.
I think 2020 will be a great year filled with great opportunities and so much more.

TERM 3
This term has been so much fun! There’s been lots of changes in class. There’s been fun things happening and not so fun things happening. Today I’m going to tell you what I’ve liked this term and what I disliked this term. We’ve done speeches, read the book Holes. We even got to go on a Marae trip To Te Poho o Rawiri, that was loads of fun.
Changes
Some of the changes are priorities, our timetables and games we play for fitness.
Priorities are a list of things that we are given to do during the week. At the end of the week hopefully all of our priorities will be done. When we’re done the teacher will mark our work according to the effort that we put into those tasks. We will earn points on Class Dojo. If one of your tasks are marked as red you will earn 1 point, If it is orange you will earn 3 points. If it is green you will earn 5 points. Timetables are something that we plan at the in the morning so we know what we’re doing for the day.
Games
At the start of the term we learnt some new games. One of the games that we’ve learnt is called Medic, Medic is like a game of dodgeball but you and your team will have a quick meeting to agree on who your two medics will be. If you get hit by a ball your medics will tag you on the hand and that will allow you to get back up.
Another game that we’ve been playing is called Ultimate Rounders, it's kind of like baseball except there’s obstacle courses. You will need to teams. There will be one pitcher that yells STOP once they’re in the circle and they’re holding the ball. The people on that pitchers team will be fielders they will throw the ball to the pitcher so they can yell STOP. Someone from the other team will be batting and once they’ve hit the ball they run super fast so they can get to the end of the first course and it goes on. In this game you will need to be very strategic.
Highlights
My highlights for term three for me is going to Te Poho o Rawiri. I enjoyed playing games and going up Kaiti Hill. I’ve really enjoyed the games that we play although I’m not the best at all of the games. My favourite game that we play is called Medic it’s a really fun! I enjoy working on priorities it’s easier and you know what you have to do next.
I’ve enjoyed everything this term especially the changes and the new games!
