Tamaki College Sports Day

On Monday some of the Year 8's went to Tamaki College for sports day. Their were a lot of people from other schools like Panmure Bridge, Glen Taylor and others. All the schools got mixed up in to different coloured teams. When we got put into teams we got to play sports like Basketball, Volleyball, Softball, Netball and others. It was a really fun day and also Tamaki College gave us very healthy and yummy lunch. My favourite sports out of all that we played was basketball, it is because it was fun and everyone was playing very fair. I really had a fun day but the bad thing was that it was so hot that I felt like I was melting.

Syndicate Assembly

On Monday the Seniors had a sydicate assembly. Room 9 was the class that was hosting it. Room 9 had a challenge for the class, we had to pick 3 people from each class to do the challenge. The challenge was call Juju on that beat, all the classes had a go. Afterwards we had to vote. Everyone voted and the winner were Room 12. I also think that room 12 do deserve to win because Mika's was trying his best and it was also funny.
