One Assembly, Two Duffy Books!!

On Monday afternoon, we had assembly. Mrs Vickers talked about how we can be  Better Than Before. She told us that this was a special assembly because the student that was chosen to get an award, would get not one, but two Duffy books!

I looked at Mrs Golder and knew immediately that she was having a hard time picking people. Finally, she eventually hand-picked me to go and receive the award. The two books I chose were called, The Slice and Conspiracy 365.

The reason why she picked me was because I backed-up my answer with evidence in reading.

First Assembly For Term 3!

Today, we had a whole school assembly. 

Mrs Vickers asked the students if they read some books in the holiday and to be truthful about it. I was among one of them. I read a book called "Dragon Knight: Joust" and "Spirit Animals: Fall Of The Beasts: Broken Ground", which is one of my favourite books.

Mrs Vickers also had some "Caught Being Good" books for the people who had been good for the rest of the day. Tyron and Tupouseini were two pupils who had been chosen by Mrs Golder. It was a great start to term 3!

🥇Duffy Award!!🥇

 On Monday, we had a whole school assembly as usual. One of the items that occur is when Mrs Vickers gives out the Duffy books and certificate to the pupils who have been doing well in their reading, writing or other subjects.

She called out the room numbers one by one: 9, 10,11 and 12. It was their turn to receive the Duffy books. The teachers had a good think about who they were going to chose. Finally,  Mr Reid picked Mary and Mrs Golder picked Saluselo which is me because I did well in my reading. I moved up a reading group as well as my reading level.

When I went up to get my award, I felt nervous. This is my 5th Duffy book award. Afterwards, Mrs Vickers congratulated me by shaking my hand and gave me a Spirit Animals book which is my favourite book.

When I looked at my book, I thought to myself, 'now I have two books like these.' I was proud of myself for doing well!

The First Senior Syndicate Assembly For 2017

It wasn't our normal day where we start the assembly on Mondays. Instead, because  it was Waitangi day we had to do our assembly on Tuesday. It was kinda weird having an assembly on Tuesday. It was our turn to host the syndicate assembly. It was fun. We had to dance to a music,  and me, Mika and Lupe had to dance to "Hit The Quan."
