2016 Collage Reflection

Since the year has nearly come to a end, LS2 have created a photo reflection of the year. Sebastian  and I put together a collage that showcases the events that have happened this year also adding the work we did in class. This year has been so fun with all the things happening every term.

Film study

For the past two days LS2 were doing Film study, Our movie that we watch is LABYRINTH. In this DLO is about what I learnt watching his movie. My favourite part in this move is that at the end Sara brings back Toby by using the speech in the book. I think that if you watch this movie you will find it funny.

Student Leader Nominee Speeches

This afternoon the year 7's presented their speeches to the year 7&8's Mr Johnson, Ms Kirkpatrick and Mrs Anderson. First Shannon started us of with his Maniakalani speeches, then went Daniel, Oh Hsen, Zahra, when it was time for me to say my speech, I was going for Head boy and Sports leader boy. After me, then it came Mia(Head Girl), Sylis(Head Boy), Nazella(Head Girl) and A.J(Head Boy). I think all of us today we shy to say our speeches, and overcome that fear of speaking in front of an audience. Here is my speech that I said today I really hope that you like it.

Hi Hello my name is Eric and I think that I can be a great for Head Boy or Sport Leader Boy.

I think that I can be a good head boy because I have confidence for all of you in Panmure Bridge School. I can do all the duties as a head boy does which are look after the school rules, communicate to each other, Follow the school values and extra. I also help with the bins in the morning when pote is not here or if he is running late. If you won't believe me, pick me as head boy and I will show that I can do the things as a head boy.

I also would be a great Sport Leader, Because I am involved in every sport and the inter-school, There were also some inter-schools, I have missed or got postponed. The games I like to play are Basketball and Touch. I am confident to be a sport leader because I never back down when I play sport and I always use sportsmanship at school and in a inter-school.

It would be a honor to become a school leader, which is one of my goals I have set for this year. Thank you

Harris Burdick - Wright

Something Under The Rug:

Once upon a time there was a man in his 50’s living in his home upon the highest mountain in the world. It was a really long night during the DAYLIGHT SAVING. His special talent was to stay awake for 1 whole week. He was sleeping on his bed then there was a sound coming from the living room. He said “ IS SOMEONE GOING TO BREAK INTO THE HOUSE.”  He felt scared and angry because one might kill them and other is because it was breaking his beauty sleep. He in the living room and there was something under the rug. “IS IT A RAT OR A MOUSE.” He lift up the rug and it was rat.

The END

Today for writing we had to use some pictures from Harris Burdick to start out writing. Mrs Anderson told us to use the six sentence starts. We did this to practice our skills with our writing. So then I made up a story and used all of the things make this.

Writing - Poem

I will put into the box …

A famous soccer player that has passed in time,

The unknown secrets of America, known knows,

All of the tornadoes that has ever broken families

I will put into the box …

Some rare Diamond Pendants that were stolen many years ago,

The new Iphone 7 that hasn’t came out yet in the world,

All of the ugly laptops that were ever went out in the world,

I will put into the box …

The loud sound of the people that I ever known,

The felling of waves going across my body,

The hearing people say that they want to learn from,

My box is fashioned from Gold and Witches in cold shivering away and  unicorns , with rainbow colored tails on the lid and gold that is from the mines in the corners.

Its hinges are Monkeys that like really old witches in the dark dark night

I shall Put a whole school of fairy’s that has all the flying dust in the world in my box.

 This is my poem that I did for writing. This is a Magic box poem, For each I will put the box we had to do three each. But not the bottom bits. I really, really like this I hope we do this again.
