All about me...

Hi my name is Tia Awhina. But my school and my parents call me Awhina. I am 11 years old and I am attending Point England school. My favourite thing to do at home on rainy days is to play on my flash net-book.

A few weeks ago my whole family was in one house. My  oldest brother came up from Palmerston north with his girlfriend. She back down and came back up last Saturday. I was really looking forward for her coming back so she could take us to Christmas in the park but she didn’t because she was tired.

So you have heard a little bit about me I hope you have a great Christmas and happy new year.

What does being a Yr 8 role model mean...

Well what makes good role model is when you help out the little kids and be responsible of your own belongings. What also makes a good role model is when you be a good inspiration to other people in your school and you represent your school like an ambassador.

Well I think that Ngaina has been a really good role model for the school. She is a really great helper and she has been a really good friend. She helps out heaps of teachers and parents and she has done a lot of work for the school. She’s great in kapa haka and i think that is one of the reasons she got picked to get Parehuia Manu O Te Tau.

I think that Athena would make a good leader next year because she is very helpful and whatever Mr Burt asks her to do she would do it just like that. I think next year if she signs up to be a prefect she would become one
because shes caring and kind to others.

One big goal that I would like to achieve next year is to become a kind and caring prefect. I have always wanted to be a prefect and I know next year is my time to shine. I have been wanting to do this for three years.

I can’t wait till next year and be a Year 8.

My Net Book Reflection...

Wow, what a wonderful year it has been with our net books. During the middle of the year we started talking about taking our net books home for the week days, weekends and the holidays.  While I have had my net book I have had some dis likes and some likes. The dis likes and likes are not all about school some of them are using them at home too.

What I have liked about having my net book is that when we are at school we don’t have to use books we can type instead of write. Also what I have liked about having my net book is that I have something to do at home then rather sit and watch TV.

My dis likes about having my net book is when we have to get on the internet to finish work and it doesn’t connect we have to stay in and finish our work. Otherwise it has been really fun to have.

Things have really changed since we have had our net books. It’s much easier having to type then write, it doesn’t take long for us to write it and we can finish it at home.

Well if you sum all this information up it will tell you that i’ve loved having my net book.
