Radius Performance

This Tuesday some groups from our school went on a small trip to a Mt. Wellington rest home for elders. Kapa haka group, Choir, Cook Island group, Samoan group and the Tongan group were going to perform. We had to practice for this and make it perfect for Miss. Waetford.

We were driven to the rest home by van thanks to staff. When we arrived they were all waiting for us and I bet had looked forward to this day as much as others had. We had an order of performance. Their faces lit up when they saw and heard us and it really did make their day.

At the end a man named William said a story which made us all crack up! I think we all did well on that day.

DARE Recount

This term we had a very friendly constable officer come to our school to teach us about drugs, alcohol and the law.DARE stands for Drug Alcohol Resistance Education.  For two long weeks each second day Constable Taina Karaka would come into our class room and enjoyingly taught us. I looked forward to Taina coming because even though she was telling us terrible things that can or have happened it is really important to know these things. We were giving a question box for people to ask question they don't fell comfortable about asking in person to put it in there. Some people were stupid though and asked dumb questions.  We saw the bad effects of drugs. Pictures of what addicts have turned into. The classes of drugs Class A being the most harmful and Class C being just harmful.  Taina had put together slide shows or power points about Drugs, alcohol and bad behavior which can put you away into jail.  Through out this class of dare I have really enjoyed myself and have learnt so much. I know this will help me in the future.

First Aid Couse

                                                      First Aid Course

A rainy but exciting day for us. That day we were learning First aid. I was quite happy because my dream job involves this type of thing. It was held in Room 11 with a friendly urse named Miss Akroyd. We sat down and she began talking about the important things that we have to do with what we are learning. Like CPR (cardio pulmonary resuscitation) and DRSABC . She also said we were going to have a bloody activity.

She asked us if we had any blood stories. We were all blank except for Sariah. She wanted to tell us about her sister who unfortunately fell through a window while dancing on the balcony. Luckily she is all right now.

Next we played with Uncle Bob. He doesn’t talk much because he was a mannequin. Our activity was, we had to get in a group and act like we just found someone on the ground and call for 111 for help . There were enough people in the group so there could be an operator, a person who cleaned the mouth after doing CPR, and a person giving CPR. Every round we had something new to do. I really enjoyed this; it was fun and a new learning experience which is now in my brain so if it happens one day I would know what to do.

The blood activity was next. The volunteer to show what we were about to do was Nathaniel. Helen did not know but she pretended that he loved cooking (which he does) and that he was making a tomato cake. Although that sounds wrong it was just pretend. So anyway he chopped up a tomato and accidentally cut his hand. Fake blood was soaked on the palm of his left hand and it looked yucky. We were told that we had to pretend that we got a cut (but really it’s just red white board marker) and our partner had to put a bandage on our wound. My partner was Maria T and she was excellent at it but me on the over hand I was not the best.

In conclusion of the first aid session we were given a bag which included magnets, pencil, paper, and a sticker of Amby the cartoon ambulance. From this lesson I learnt so much and I enjoyed every part. To be honest I didn’t want to leave. The best part of this was when she was talking to Maria and said she was munted it was funny.

My dream car

If I could change the look of my car it would be a dream come true. My car is a Holden, with cracked silver paint that has rust developing on the side of the left mirror. Oh it is disgusting, so yucky and old it would be wonderful for it to be brought to life again. The year it was made was quite some time ago 2002, the year my sister was born seems like only yesterday but the car looks expired like a loaf of bread, once you purchase the loaf it's nice and fresh you can't get enough of it but as the days go by you just leave it but until the day it has turned a Green blue you know you have to get rid of it. But in this case you can't get rid of it either you don't have the money or it's too much off a hassle. Car's have changed since the old days people get cars like there for free , but there not. my car stereo is on its way out I think it was two months ago since I heard music coming out of the speaker's. One of the safety belt's is missing I thing it is suck between the seat and the door, so only 4 people can go out at a time, when theres four kid's and one adult so not all of us can go out. Enough about my bombshell, If I could have my car renewed the tyres would be shining with sparkles, the seat's would be laziboy and the soft sheep skin would be stitched into the seat.The car would have a scent that would never disappear like vanilla . Everything would be pink!!! This would change my life, and would effect me and my friends. In saying this I could become a flash Taxi Driver!
