There's No Teacher?

Walking into class on Monday last week finding out that Mrs Golder was not there was very awkward. " Where's Mrs Golder? Who's our teacher? No school? " These questions were running through my mind at that very moment. Waiting till 8:55am in the morning for our teacher to arrive and still no teacher came! Then finally we got a note from another student in Room 11 that she was absent. After all that time waiting and investigating for our teacher was a waste of time!

Algebra Test

Today after morning tea we had an Algebra test to sit. Time was ticking, Mrs Golder was crossing out the times on the whiteboard I felt sweats coming down my face. I get nervous when I don't get nervous I always end up having a wonderful time. Lets just hope that I get a good mark!

Tips On Halloween

It's finally the last day of October after a very exhausting long 31 days of school work. It's time for Halloween. Here are some tips for Halloween.

1. All of us children get excited when it comes to Halloween, but you must remember to go with an adult. 

2. We have to admit we all have a lot of motivation when it comes to Trick or Treating right? Like who doesn't? It's Trick or Treating! But we all have to remember to be careful, it's dark, don't run just walk to avoid accidents. 

3. Most importantly never and I mean never walk into stranger's houses or cars! 

4. Halloween is on a school night so don't eat to much lollies. You still have a big day tomorrow so keep your brain on. 

5. Don't bring lollies back to school, keep them at home. You don't want your teachers eating them do you? No lollies at school.

Keep theses tips in mind for tonight. Don't go out too far and always stay with an adult. 

It's Finally Our Last Term

We're finally back from our two weeks holiday and it's the last term of the year. It's the time where we have our end of the year assessments and I'm pretty excited for it but worried about getting a low score. Goodbye intermediate, hello college!

Auckland Botanical Gardens

Tomorrow Ruapotaka School students and teachers will be travelling by bus to the Auckland Botanical Gardens. We will be observing many different types of flowers and also learning new things about plants. The area I want to visit is the Rose garden. Why? Because roses have awesome colours and also because they smell beautiful. I can't wait to spend the day out with my school at the Botanical Gardens tomorrow.
     

Snag Golf

Last Week Thursday at 9:15 we had Snag Golf.

When we got there we had to say 'good morning' to the coach. Once that was done he told us what we were going to be doing. We had to get into teams of three, then we could start. The aim of our first game was to try and get the ball onto the number 3. When it was on the number three we had to say "Snag Golf". Playing snag golf was really fun, I can't wait for next week.

Buddy Reading

For the past two weeks from 2:30 to 2:45 we have been going to Room 7 for buddy reading.

Buddy reading is when you go to another class and make them read to you or you read to them. We have all have had one partner or two depending on how many people are here that day. Once we got to Room 7 we had to go pick our buddy then sit down and read with them.  Reading with Room 7 has been a lot of fun.
