Duffy Role Model Assembly

Today a man called Myron Simpson came to our school as a Duffy Role Model. He is currently a cyclist who has been all over the world, competed in the Commonwealth Games and best of all represents New Zealand. 

I was lucky enough to introduce him to my school and ask him a couple of questions. His favourite place he's been to is Italy because of the delicious pizza. He always has to study places before he goes to them. 

He also has a muesli brand which is sold online and it is called Myron’s Muesli. He had some pretty cool gear with him such as his special bike, his helmet, medals and more. He has followed through with his dream since he was little.

Senior Syndicate Assembly

Syndicate Assembly
Yesterday, Monday the 7th of September 2015 Room 12 once again were assigned to host the Syndicate Assembly. 

First we had to have someone to be the ‘Master of Ceremony’ which in other words is the ‘Chief Host’. Miria volunteered to be the organiser. 

For our main attraction we had a Talent Quest performed by a group of people from each senior syndicate class. 

We had four judges including Kolotina, Mika, Miria and myself. 

At the end of the Talent Quest it was a tie with first place Room 9 and Room 11. In second place Room 10, and Room 12 at third. Sini and Melelose represented our class. 
It was really fun and it seemed that our audience enjoyed our presentation.

Best Daffodil from Each Classroom

These Daffodils were made by the students from each classroom and selected by their teachers as the best made flower. Each class created their Daffodils in different ways.

Some classes constructed them by using muffin cases, straws for stalks and orange and yellow papers. Some classes folded their papers and others used templates created by their teachers.

We made these because we support Daffodil Day as a school raising money for the Cancer Society.

Daffodil Day

What Was On The 28th of August? Daffodil Day!

Friday the 28th of August was Daffodil Day so we made some origami daffodils. We only needed yellow, green, and orange paper to make the origami daffodil. The first time we made it was alright but the second time we made it, it looked like a real daffodil. We were all proud of our daffodils and my daffodil was picked as the best daffodil.

These are all our daffodils we made  in our classroom and we even made the origami vase for the daffodils to sit in.

Florida receiving the Good Conduct Certificate at the School Assembly

On Monday the 31st of August, I was awarded the Good Conduct certificate and on the certificate, it said "for being an excellent role model."  

My thoughts and feelings of earning this certificate made me really happy, proud of myself and I thought to myself that I was the best.
