Reflection
This I was so excited being a year 7 making year 8 friends I thought it would be hard making new friends but I had some of my friends that I had through the whole year, Something I thought was really hard was doing P.E every day and I was so exhausted after every P.E run but most of the time I have Kiwi sport I had volley ball for this whole term.
The trips I went to was fun at the beginning of the year we went to polyfest, in term 4 the year 7s went to rainbows end and our last end of year trip is going to parakai and it is next monday but I won’t be here on the last day of school because I am taking a trip to samoa for two weeks.

I will still come back for my school holidays and sleep over my cousins house, what I hope for next year is being a house captain for next year and being a great leader.

Warehouse visiting

This morning we got a surprise visit from the warehouse and their generosity offered us 1094.46 (one hundred and ninety four thousand and 46 cents) for camps next year and families get a net book for people that struggle to pay for a net book, and also we got a another surprise but this was a one that our principal Mr Burt doesn't know about they were talking about what riege they were in so they were in riege 8 and they had to choose a superhero and they chose Mr Burt and with the award he also got a 500 dollar gift card, they also helped the year 8s to go to their camp for nearly a whole term.
they also said they were going to sponsor us for another 6 months like WILL.I.AM sponsored us 10,000 dollars but we couldn't spend it all so we shared some with tamaki primary.
Something I learnt from the warehouse people was that the year 7s and I were going to be the new leaders for next year and we have to show S.W.A.L.L (show what awesome look like) to the younger children who are going to be the new leaders and the year 6s that are coming to the year 7s.

Manaikalani

Manaiakalani
Today the whole school went to Sylvia park for the manaiakalani film festival but the year 7 & 8s went at a different time because there would be to much people.
But we went at a different time when ruapotaka came for there first time to the film festival, they only showed two movies and one tamaki college movie and all the angles I saw inspired me to do different kinds of angles.
Then moving on to the Pt England movies the first one was called The force “a brand new hair gel that gives you the power of a Jedi… coming to a store near you” the producer 1 said
“What's a Jedi?” Producer 2 asked
“You know from star wars” Producer 1 said
“is it the one with the glow in the dark swords?” producer 2 said  
“yea I think so” producer 1 said as they walked off
Then the movie started like it was a commercial then it ended like a commercial. we had so many movies that we had half time.

and finish it after morning tea, the last movie was my classes movie called law and order pt England the story behind it was don’t use nasty words if you’re mad at other people.
