Thinking Blocks

In my maths class we have been working with ratio's. This week we had to go on thinking blocks and practise our ratio's. For the past 3 weeks we have been working on this On thinking blocks there are 8 questions on every stage.

Cross Country

On the 7th of september Point England School had their yearly cross country, I was so excited. We were meant to have it on the 3rd but it got postponed because it was raining. On Monday our day was different because we had to get changed and eat at  12:15 pm so that we could start at 1:00.

The year 7 &8’s were told that we had to wear our house colours. Each student at Point England has a colour that they stay in until they leave our school. Red, Yellow, Green & Blue are all of our house colours. Everyone had to remember their colours on monday.

All of the year 5- 8s had to wait for the  year 1-4s to finish their run. When we ran we had to run in our year levels. Some of the really fast year 7’s & 8’s had to run in front of the year 1’s-4’s so they knew where to go.

This year cross country was more different and harder than  last years because last year we did 1 lap around our school field, around the reserve  once and  back to school but this year we did 2 laps. Heaps of people kept slipping over because the glass was wet and muddy.

When everyone finished their run they were all tired. I think that everyone tried their hardest. My favourite part was running in the mud because we all got dirty and it was slippery. Mostly the year 7’s & 8’s got muddy because they were sliding in the mud.

Miss Universe NZ

Yesterday afternoon 16 contestants from Miss Universe came to talk to all of the seniors about being enterprising. When they came three girls had to stay up the front to tell us about how they became entrepreneur. The three girls that talked to us were Sharne, Ella and Gabrielle. Some of the thing they said were that we can either keep dreaming while asleep or we can chase our dreams and that we should smile all the time..

After the they talked to all of the seniors the 16 girls got split up into our 5 classes. When we all went back to our classes the girls that were in room 5 had to tell us their names and gave us some ideas about how to be financially responsable. Layla, Aalimah and Karishma were the 3 girls that came to my class. Then room 5 went into 3 groups with each girl so we could ask any some questions. Some of our questions were about what they like to do. I was in layla's group and she asked us what we like to do and what thing make us happy. I think that the girls had more fun then the boys did.
