Touch Rugby


It was a very big day for me, My very first intermediate touch tournament.
We went to Dunkirk Reserve, Our very first game was against a pretty good team
which was Panmure District school. We beat them 6-0, Our defense was amazing along with our attack. We beat teams like Parnell, Stan Hope and Kohimarama!
We won all our games, but then we had to play our neighbours and our rivals Tamaki Intermediate, We had a draw which was 4 all. There were no semi finals or finals, It was just a round robin match so we came second, and Tamaki Intermediate came first by just one point.

Babylon Rhythm now known as ‘Babylon Riddim’ is my favourite Reggae band. The lead singers name is Charlie “Marley”, and the two vocalist names are Douglas and Mau. Their past achievement was they won the Smokefree Pacifica Beats.
Their new single ‘Reggae is my heart’ has made a huge impact on other reggae bands who wants to be a professional band.
Babylon Riddim reminds me of my favourite singer Bob Marley.

Survival tips on a Raft!


For our reading tasks we were reading a book about two guys learning how to survive on a
Life Craft.
My group called Tui, had a task to do which was to list 10 survival tips when you are on a Life Craft. My tips are:

1. You need to practice getting into the Life Craft.
2. You must learn how to swim.
3. Make sure you wear proper clothing.
4. YOU MUST NOT DRINK YOUR URINE
or else you're get thirsty.
5. Take seasick pills.
6. You definitely need your life jacket
7. Know how to release and inflate the craft.
8. You have to cuddle amongst each other to keep warm.
9. You have to believe you are going to survive.
10. Make sure you have a plastic bag in case you spew up.

He started from australia headed down past New Zealand and straight to Cape Horn.

Immersion Assembly


Every term our whole school will have a topic to study and find facts about. At the beginning of each term, our school runs an Immersion Assembly.

If you’re wondering what on earth is an Immersion assembly, it is when the staff members or the teachers dress up  and present an act to us.   Part of their act will always have to be about the topic we are learning about.

One of my favourite Immersion assemblies was when our topic was ‘Food Glorious Food’. When everyone sat down, people who sat up straight, Received  a Sausage with bread or a piece of B.B.Q chicken on a plate.  I could still remember Ms Garden one of our teachers at our school giving me lots of ‘Corn Chips’ with her famous ‘Guacamole’ during assembly.

Pt England is the only school I know that has the best Immersion Assembly’s.
