This year I was a year 7 but next year I will be a year 8 scary I know but let’s look back at my year.
Term one
At the start of term one I was petrified of moving into Tangaroa mostly just scared of Nogo and Mr Redmond & the maths. When I was put into my math group I was so scared that I would be put into Nogo’s maths but I was put in Talei’s. I cant remember anything else in term one that so all.
Term Two
Term two was really good I made new friends and I was doing good at my maths and literary (I was in Nogo’s literary group ) We learned about our school goals and. This term I was getting used to going to tech every thursday. Term two we also started to learn Te reo with Mr Redmond. Me and my best friend were not good at this because we didn’t normally do this. We slowly started to introduce kaitiaktitangaI Did not know what Kaitiakitanga was at the start of the year. I knew that it had something to do with plants and nature but I did not know. Now I know that kaitiakitanga is being a protector/Guardian of your space and the space around you. You can show kaitiakitanga by picking up the trash around you and cleaning up. At home, help around the house protect the world. To explain to new kids what kaitiakitanga is. I would tell them to clean up and tidy their mess and to protect the world around them. Thats basically what we were learning. And that wraps up term Two.
Term Three
Term three I joined the choir and really liked it at the end of this we actually went to the town hall and sang about 8 songs. We also did winter sport I did netball and I was in the B team. Term three was also when Nogos literary group did poetry I loved doing poetry this was because We got to make our own poems and storys. This was the time that I did more things. In tyhe mornings Nogo was doing dance me and my friends went to dance and we had the most fun ever. We Learned so many dances like the Cowboy up and The cupid Shuffle and many more. I really improved my spelling And thats Because of Nogo making us do A story every time in literary. Also in term three we went on the ski trip This was So fun my dad came to he tripped over about 10 billion times but over all that was a fun time. Term three we were put into inquiry groups i was put into Taleis and we were making organic cleaning products Me and my best friend George made a spray and wipe called Gemma and Co.
Term Four
This Term was really good that my year eight friends are leaving the school at this time we were only to be doing reflection and hero posts and a lot of tests. My Goals four next year are Try everything Get better at maths by practising at home Get better at my spelling by trying to write more and make more friends. When I leave school I want to remember the memories I made and figure out what path I’m going to go down.
