Nikau C’s First Fabulous Blog

04/05/09

Kia-ora and welcome to Nikau C’s 2009 Webslinger blog.
Now one of the things Nikau C did last term was our Activity Week, which involved heaps of awesome adventures like coaching clinics, swinging from tree to tree, riding on bikes through muddy and slippery mountain tracks at Glenbervie Adventure Park, walking and jumping down rugged rocks at the Waipu Abseiling cliffs and veiwing glow worms in the dark and cold caves at Waipu.
Now in the last week of school Term 1 Nikau C students were speaking in front of the class for the reading comp. Which was very interesting because a lot of students chose funny and grasping stories which were very good because it gave  good points towards their grade. The year sevens that made it through to the syndicate finals out of Nikau C were Ashley E, Nathan C and Laura C. The brilliant year eights that got through were Nathan H and Re-joyce O.
Now to finish off this blog we will do a really dumb joke......
Two blondes walked into a building, you though one of them would have seen it.

The Final Term 2 Blog

Monday 29 June 2009

OMG its already the end of an awesome term 2 and there have been a lot of fun things that have happened over the past term.
For e.g. Reading Comp, Lunch Time Sports, Winter Sports, Debating and a lot more fun things.
But during last week, we had the year 7 trivial pursuit Competition which was a blast, because there were a lot of brain waves going through the minds of the smart and clever students from each class which was great. The class that came out on top was room 8 and followed by the amazing and astonishing Nikau C.
On Friday we had a special guest speaker named Marcel Bernard, and she spoke to us about how to become a brave and confident speaker in front of an audience and great tips on how to write a speech.
So this term has been full on, with a lot of fun filled activities and opportunities.

What a fun day we had on Friday last week. There were parents supporting their children, there were students channel k'ing their friends and teachers controlling the crowd, it was an awesome day.

Some of the acts were Kapa Haka, 4 bands, 6 singers, 5 groups of dancers, a karate act, Chris the mime and a comedy act-the Couch Potatoes.
At the end of the Roadshow, we had the shining star acts certificates and the best channel k, supportive and well performed acts received a certificate and names got put in a hat and went into the draw to win a poster.

Samoa Tour Blog

1.11.09

What an amazing trip the samoan group had in Samoa. The water, the food and the beautiful sun was just magnificent. One of the most remembering things that i will always remember was when we had the disco night and we had a rocking night we stayed up, had fun, and then we went for lovely swim about 10:30 pm and it was the bomb. I would like to thank all the parents for all their effort and would like to thank with all my heart Miss Butler, Ms Kini and Whaea Katarina for organizing a great trip and i hoped you enjoyed your lovely massage present.
