Christmas Holidays

After Christmas my family are going away to Tauranga which will be fun. We have been there once before and had so much fun that we had to go back there. There are heaps of things there to do. My Dad has booked us in a holiday house. But when My auntie comes down from Hamilton me and my aunt get to stay in a five star hotel for one night!!!! Sadly we don't have any fun Christmas traditions in fact I don't think we have any at all. So yeah thats what I am doing for Christmas what are you doing??? Sadly this is my last blog post  :-( But will keep you up dated with what is happening though :-) So I guess this is goodbye.

Term 4 highlights

This term we have done some awesome stuff. Here are some of the things that I am going to put in my highlights for this year.
Dodgeball
Space
Friends
Production I was in the props group. {They were the best}
Tech
Japanese
My theme is going to be dodgeball, Japanese or space.

College

I kind of want to leave St Ben's and I kind of don't.  I am going to Onslow College next year, where I don't have to wear a uniform, I super happy about this.  I am feeling nervous about going to college because I might not make friends.  Luckily I have a few friends from my class that are going to the same college.

The things I would like to achieve is getting into the basketball team and their rugby team, because I really love playing both sports.  Some things I am looking forward to are making new friends.  Some things that I could find challenging are getting good grades.  Below is the logo for Onslow college, this logo is used on their sports uniform that I will hopefully be wearing if I get into the rugby or basketball team.

Speech

For my speech I did Why I don't like speeches. When I got up in front of the class I was so nervous my legs were shaking and I didn't even want to do it do I made up excuses like "oh sorry forgot my speech will have to do it tomorrow" and "I can't do it because I have a dry throat". It didn't really go as well as I would as hoped, I didn't look up enough at my classmates. This year the speeches have been much better I enjoyed listening to all of them because they were all good topics and good speeches about the topic. Yeah last speech of the year at St Benedict's school, but unfortunately I have to do another speech at College. YES JOB DONE NOW!!!!

Cherub

The picture above shows the CHERUB logo.CHERUB recruited an orphan, called James. Torchered him for 100 days in Basic Training. Then he went of to a mission capturing drug dealers, they call them selves KMG i am not sure what it stands for but they sell cocaine to other people who want it.

Speech

I am feeling really nervous about my speech.  My speech is titled "I don't like doing speeches".  I am not very excited but it is just one of those things you have to do.  One of the aspects that I want to improve on is looking up at the audience, and not reading off the paper, only use it for remembering something on my speech. Every year we have to do speeches, the reason I hate doing then is because it is soooo boring having to write one.  I would much rather be playing with my friends.

Space

I really liked this space topic because I wanted to learn about space. The thing I like about space is  the different types of planets and the fact that there could be other life forms, like us, out in the other solar systems/planets/galaxies. Titan is one of Saturn's moons, I found that out because of the space topic we have been learning about. I learned that you could actually live on Titan, but it would be very cold and I like warm climates. One day I would like to go the moon, I don't think that will happen because I will be too busy playing sports like rugby and tennis. Below is a picture of Titan orbiting Saturn.

So over all I really enjoyed the space topic and it was really fun learning more about space, sun, moon and the earth.
