Today all of us dressed in black because..... we were supporting the ALL BLACKS for their big game on Sunday versing those funny looking Kangaroos from over the ditch!! Lots of us are saying that we are going to get up at 5am on Sunday morning so we can see our heroes. We all can't wait till the game. Mr H dressed up as Richie he really had a mask on, it was pretty cool. We think we should change our school uniform to black coz it looks pretty cool at school today. Alex and Maddy had a guess at the score. Alex guessed 54-20 and Maddy guessed 100-26! of course the All Blacks will win. GO ALL BLACKS. XXX
Adults always make lots of noise when they get up to watch the rugby!! Today Room 8 ran an amazing asssembly.
We really liked your assembly, we liked how you used the silver fern flag as the background to your powerpoints, because of the world cup rugby. It was cool how you drew pictures of recent events and let us answer what we thought they were. We think we should do that in assembly every time. We really loved your singing too, we would love to learn your song. by Sophie, Theo, Logan, Wharepapa and Mitchell. Room 9 had a great time today buddy reading with Room 18. Tsehai
Nice to have a reading buddy class this year!! They are really cute. : ) Fiona It was our first read with Room 18, it was great fun !!! Casey I had lots of fun buddy reading with Jacob. Lachie Our first reading buddy session with Room 18, turned out really well. Hayley Too bad we didn't get to share our books, maybe next week. Taylor. On athletics day even though it was a little wet and miserable we still had a great day with some great results in room 9. In the 7 yr olds the following people got places: Sophie, Tsehai, Mitchell and Tomas, Now the 8yr olds: Dean, Olivia, Hayley, Emily-Jane, Lachie and Theo. Plus our last super star person, he's a 9 yr old Wharepapa. Mrs O'Donnell thought we were all amazing and that we did really well plus we all showed we were great ASACE's (Allenton School Ace's) Reported by Tsehai and Sophie GREAT JOB EVERYONE!!!!!!!! We forgot to mentions how exciting the relay was and how WHERO HOUSE were the winners on the day. Plus the teachers were pretty awesome in the relay. On Sunday Emily-Jane, Hayley and Mitchell did the MUDDY GOOD RUN at the Rakaia Domain.
they had to go through mud, over hay bales, under nets, under trucks and over cars, down a slippery slide and more. At the end they were very muddy but very happy. They want to do it again and some of us would like to try too. This is the middle athletics practice. Everyday that the weather is fine we practice our athletics after morning tea with the other middle school classes. We go to two activities and then we practice sprints with the other children our age from middle school. the activities we practice are; long jump, discus, high jump, shot put and long distance. Here are some of our thoughts: # I think i'm getting better at long jump because I throw my arms high and tuck my legs up. Mitchell # At high jump you get good at jumping high when you practice. Alex # I think i've got better at high jump because I jump higher and do the scissor jump properly. Theo # I think I'm better at short sprints because I've been getting faster and beating lots. Casey #I think i've got better at discus because I use the power in my back leg. Sophie # I think I got better at long jump because I tuck my knees to get height with my flight. Tsehai # My shot put has improved because my wrist isn't floppy. Annabel # I am better at shot put because I push it further. Olivia # My discus is better because I swing the discus to get some height. Renee # I am better at long jump because I take off on one foot and land on two. Aiden # I have got good at long jump because I push off and take off from the mat correctly. William # I have got better at long distance because I am pacing myself and I am getting used to the distance. Wharepapa # I'm better at discus because I keep the discus flat and I let it go at the right place, using the power from my back leg. Lachie # I am better at shot put because instead of throwing I push. Ben # Practicing everything has made me better. Fiona # I am getting better at discus because I get it flat like a flying saucer. Logan # I think I am better at high jump and I think I think I can jump over 90cm. Tom # I am better at discus because I have more power in my arm. Dean # I think I am better at discus because I get it really far. Maddy # I think I improved my discus because it goes in the right direction. Hayley # I think i am better at shot put because I aim higher and it goes further. Manaia # I think I'm improving my high jump because my scissor jump is going higher. Emily Jane # Discus is good now because i put my back leg now and I do good throws. Taylor |
