My term 1 reflection 2013

MY REFLECTION TERM 1

Kia Orana, my name is Rosalie, I am 11 years old of age, and just recently got baptised. At the moment I am attending and learning about things at Pt.England school. It is a fantastic school. Right now, we are in our last week of fun, and independence.


In my class it’s quiet and the sound of peace bounces of the lights,...jokes...to be quite honest it is nothing like that. It is an annoying place for me!!! Because of THE SMELLY BOYS. They would tease me, during class times and every day of the term. So most times, I would have been angry and upset but there were some good times during the term, like..
PE, class challenges mostly. How we panicked, if we weren't going to win. The faces we pulled, it was hilarious. Most times, I would fall down and laugh really loud. I even got a warning once, to be quiet.
Great times, but still class wasn’t a good place, not because of the boys, but because there are some memories of me not being quite organised enough. Which is true.  Some times, I forget my things at home, and so I would be a bit disorganised, but at least I got the work done.
But once I get home, and read the work, I have created. I finally realise that I could have made my work a little bit better, like in  my writing,  showing not telling the story so I edit it and trying to improve.

 I also..
...share my work with my group and try and make everyone co-operate with each other. With our heads down, trying our best, we know we can get our tasks done. But not always quite on time...or on the date that it’s suppose to be in. 

I also think about how well I have worked and with others, and how well we co-operate with each other and stay focused...and to be quite honest, I think we muck around. It’s not until, we receive a warning from the teacher that we work hard. So my goal for next term is to choose the people I work with wisely.

So that’s my experience at Pt.England school. How much fun I had, and also how much pain I’v been during the term. But there are some things I want to improve in, like, my subjects. I want to be at or at least above my age at every subject. So I will be able to attend at Selwyn college... -.-

The school triathlon

Triathlon was a great  experience for my friends and classmates, but not for me. The slippery slide was ready,  the bikes were lined up and ready, and the track was set up. Who could ask for more? I know I wasn't, but it's just that, my experience wasn't that great. I remember.. 

 My heart pounding as I ran around the flags. “Come on you can do it, Laita!” cheered the boys on the side line. Slower and slower, I started to run, and faster and faster my classmate Makarita ran closer to me.

“Sharks” I yelled, as I panicked  ‘Come on, Come on, Come on, I can do it’ I repeated in my head hoping I would reach the finish line, in first place. Makarita run towards me like nothing, and was finally behind me. I took bigger steps, to try and be in the lead, but that didn't work.


Our classmates on the sideline cheered, “Go Rita!”. That made me even more nervous. Dashing among the finished line, I waved my hands in triumph. Waiting for the results from the guy that kept our places,  he said “ Well done, you came first twice”.

A narrative I just created

I bent down and watched the giant waves crash up against the rocky rocks. Gazing at the waves, I noticed the powerful, and strong winds had arrived, making the birds soar across the sky.

The blistery cold winds blew towards me, making me stick to the sand. “Brra” I said to myself, as my limbs started to shiver. I sat on the sandy beach, and rapped my self in my jumper, and stared at the one rock that was beside me and that was lonely.

I think it was then I suddenly felt a drip of water tip onto me. Without a clue, I slowly and carefully looked up. Before I could even scream, a great huge wave wash me up into the bay of water.
Minutes went by without a gasp of fresh and clean air.

Luckily my brother saw the whole thing, and already he started to dive in for me. Rushing towards me like a great big shark under water, he pulled me out, with his man hands, and tried to wake me up. Several times he tried. But I just didn't seem to wake up.

His slaps were harder than I thought. I know I could feel them but I just couldn't wake up. I didn't know what was wrong with me. Nether did the doctors so they put me in a coma. For 8 weeks I didn't wake up, until I felt a huge hand on my face. Meaning I got the biggest slap to wake up.

It's not the politest way to wake up but I am still alive an't I.

An old Vatican house

'Zoom' went Ben as he raced his little brother Tom, to the other side of the neighbour hood. "Haha, I'm beating you, Tom, and I'm only jogging" said Ben, as laughter filled his stomach. They both ran over hedges and under twigs to reach the other side of the neighbour hood. "Hehe, I am still winning", Ben happily said. "Wait, wait...t!" yelled Tom, "I need, need a break!". Slowly and carefully they stopped by an old and banded house to rest and capture their breathe.


Spider webs surrounded the front door, while the uninhabited house made loud noises. "You got your breathe back?" asked Ben. In a quite voice Tom replied "Yes, now can we go? This place is kind of scaring me". Ben bent down and said back, "No questions there." Together they leaped up and walk away from the scary feelings that they suddenly got. 'Bang' went something behind them. Ben thought to him self, it's better to just keep on walking, but it wasn't. The sound of speaking and loud noises just got louder and louder.


It was like some strange person wanted them to go in. Toms advice was not to go in but do you think he would really listen? NO HE DIDN'T. In stead of listening to Tom, Ben turned around and ran inside and yelled, "Hello, Hello, listen is there anyone out there?".


All Tom could see was an old tall Vatican house. Ben tried once more, to see who was that strange person, scattering around. He Rotated around the house several times, But that got him nowhere.


"Forget it Lets just go" said Ben, as he jumped over the wooden deck. "Wait, did you check the shed?" asked Tom. "And, what do you think is in there?", replied Ben, as a clueless face suddenly appeared. “I don’t know just go have a look, anything is possible!” said Tom.


Just as Tom said anything was possible, Ben capture a rusty old key from the conner of his eye. “Hey wait, what’s that?” asked Ben, as they went closer and closer towards the shed. “It’s a key, hmm...” said Tom.


“What’s it for?”, asked Ben, as he bent over to see where the latch was. “I think it’s for the shed?” answered Tom. “ Probably, come on, give it a try.” said Ben, in a nice quite voice. Slowly and carefully, the cold and rusty key entered to latch, opening the door.

"Wow, look at this.." said Ben, as he lifted $100 bills in the air. "Yes, we are rich" they both yelled out!!!

Mornings with my unusually brother

It was a race, between my brother and I, to see who was the fastest. I tried my best running through thick air...but the big and bright sphere in the blue sky was distracting me by its vibrant colours . I couldn't bear it. So I ran off track, and into the cool and chilly  shade, leaving my brother to run by himself.

Thinking that I was by his side, he thought  that it would be a good idea to sprint his hardest.  "Ha, ha, ha, I'm, I'm, I'm finally beating you" he yelled out loud, repeatedly. Finally when he reached the end of the track, he sighed.

I think it was then, that he finally realized that I wasn't there. "Oh is someone a chicken?" he asked, as he rose his hands from his side and started to act the way he was naturally. I replied, "Mocking me, won't make a difference, it's hot and I'm staying in the shade.

"I know, it just makes ME  feel better, you know." he said.

I am...
