NATIONAL YOUNG LEADERS DAY!!!! - NYLD/15

On a lovely warm day, I and 2 other students and 2 teachers Mrs Kelway and Mrs Ringwood went to Manukau Vodafone Event Centre to go and celebrate National Young Leaders Day, NYLD is that when we go and learn stuff about what we should do to our school if we were young leaders.

After that Mrs Kelway and Mrs Ringwood arrived and I was like so proud that they arrived after me because I thought that the left without me, but luckily they came because I really wanted to go on this great experience that has been going on for 14 years and also this was my first time.

When they arrived they came straight to me and said “ Joshua are you feeling well because I heard that you were really ill” I replied “ Yes I was ill and that I couldn’t come to the meeting so I am here now ready to go to the Conference”.

Later on Mrs Kelway and Mrs Ringwood came and called us to hurry up and get into the car before we're late, so then we hopped in the car and also we were all ready to go on this long trip to Manukau, it took us 22 minutes to get from Castledine Crescent to Manukau Vodafone Event Centre.

When we arrived at Manukau I felt pretty excited because this was my first time at a conference. This is the only thing I want to all the young leaders out there “ Everyone of us can be a leader - whether that be at school, at work, in our personal life, in sports, in the community, or as a leader of ideas. We can all be someone that other people look up to. I encourage you to aim high, reach for your dreams and give it everything you’ve got. I firmly believe if you set your mind to it and you can achieve anything”.

After that we had morning tea and our lunch time and then some more celebrities came and talked about their personal life.

Later on we had to leave now, this was a awesome experience that happened in my entire life. THAT WAS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE!!!!!

A SCARY VOICE WAS HEARD!!!!!!

NUMBER PROBLEMS:)

I have been learning how to solve a number story problem by using tidy numbers.

FIRST SWIMMING LESSON:)

KEEPING IT COOL IN THE POOL!!!

!DING! the clock hits 12:00pm, the classroom was excited because we are going to be heading to the swimming pool for a real lesson with real professional instructors.

Later on when the clock hit 12:00 the teacher (MRS POLE) told us that we will be swimming from 12:00 - 12:30 which means we get to have 30 minutes.

When we got to the courts where the pool was set-up, Pam the swimming instructor welcomed us.  She instructed us to get into the pool for a trial to see if we can swim or not. Afterward, she got us into groups, “NUMBER 1” and “NUMBER 2” number 1 was the group that needs to learn how to swim and the other group is the people who already knows how to swim.

Later on we get to go into the pool so we can some have fun with the warm water. When I got into the water the water was so warm and wavy. We had 2 marvelous instructors that taught us lots of useful swimming tips and how to float on water.

The first thing Emma taught us was how to swim if you are in danger, second thing was to swim sideways and the last one was how to swim and paddle at the same time, but I already know how to swim and paddle, but she said that people don’t know how to swim and paddle when a shark is like attacking them.

That was the only thing that she taught us then today we are going to do more stuff with Emma!!!

MOTHERS DAY:)

I am going to write a descriptive writing about my

beautiful mother, my mother is a caring mother and a

loving mother.

When I see my mum she has long hair and brown eyes

she wears jeans a lot and long arm t shirts a lot. Also

when I see my mum she is a beautiful mother and a very

cool mother to live with.

When I hear her she yells and talks very quietly but she

yells a lot, when she yells at me i feel very sad and

angry I feel like running away but I still love her.

When she cooks dinner it tastes very delicious and

yummy and when she cooks my lunch she says does it

taste yum and then I answer politely yes.

Whenever my mum walks past me I smell from her

perfume and spray and when I smell it, it smells really

nice. Sometimes when she walks past me it smells really

bad but it is not from her it is from my brother

(SAMUEL).

My Mother is like no other, she gave me a life to live. There is not

enough words to describe but just how important my Mother was to

me and what a powerful influence. She is always going to continue to be a Mother.

MOTHER I LOVE YOU:)

Soul Friend Mass:)

This morning Room 7 and Room 4 went to mass so we can celebrate the Feast of St. Joseph. When we got to church we sat down with our lovely Soul Friends. 

My Soul Friend (Malia) was reading, so we went up to where we read, Malia read her part she told me that she was shy when she was reading her part. 

When we got off she wasn't shy anymore, she told me that she read her part but tried not to cry

When we sat down she was waiting until the mass is over so we can get out of here because Malia was hot.

Later on the mass was over and so then we went out of the church and went back to our classes with out Soul Friends to do activities with them.
