Fun Week

Walt: Use a variety of interesting vocabulary to keep our readers engaged. 

On the last few days of Term 1 the Yr 8ś went to camp and the Yr 7ś stayed behind and had 3 fun days. On the first day of our fun week we watched a movie called Boys2men. We watched half of the movie on the first day. After the movie we wrote a brainstorm of the movie. 

On the second day of our 3 fun days we watched the other half of the movie. When we watched the movie we also ate popcorn, we were given popcorn to make the movie more enjoyable. The movie was extra cool because it was made by one of our teachers Miss Muliaumasealii. Parts of it were filmed in Glen Innes and the other parts were filmed at James Cook High School and a big warehouse.  I enjoyed watching the movie because it taught me some things. 

On the last day of our 3 fun days we made flower blankets, and pasta bake. The cooking group started to make the food while the other children carried on with there flower blankets and other art. We made our flower blankets by using fake flowers, pins and mesh. After we completed our flower blankets we got ready to eat. Each of us were given a coke and a bowl of pasta bake. If you finished you were allowed to have 2nds, 3rds, 4ths or even 5ths. 

Overall I thought our fun week was GREAT. We had a fun time doing our arts and crafts.

This is a movie made by extension group. Alexis, Lucy, Yvonne, Cameo and I created this movie so people can see what we do at Pt England. This movie is a MTV movie. In this MTV movie it shows you how we learn at Pt England and some of the things we do. The footage on this movie was out together by Lucy and Alexis, followed by the singing. The song we used in this movie is Happy- Pharell Williams. We changed the lyrics in the song to things we do here at PES. I hope you enjoy our movie!!!

This is my Visual Mihi. This term we were given the task to do a Visual Mihi of yourself for your animation. 

In the middle is me. I am there for people to see and know who I am.

 On the top left hand corner there is a green flag with stars. That represents one of my cultures which is Cook Island.  There are 15 stars on the Cook Island flag. My other cultures are New Zealand, Maori and Tahitian.

On the top right hand corner there is a Cross. This is the Lords Cross. I have that there because I believe in the Lord. If you are good to the Lord the Lord is good to you.

On the bottom left hand there is a heart that has the word Family in it. I put that there because I Love my family dearly and always will. In my family I have 4 brothers that I love. I am the only girl in my family too.

Lastly on the bottom right hand corner there is a symbol of Music. The symbol is there because I enjoy listening to music. Listening to music makes me feel free.

I hope you learnt a bit about me. Hope you ENJOY!!!
