The True Meaning Of Christmas

The true meaning of Christmas is love. God loved His own and provided a way—the only Way—for us to spend eternity with Him. He gave His only Son to take our punishment for our sins. He paid the price in full, and we are free from condemnation when we accept that free gift of love. "But God demonstrated His own love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us"

Tuesday night

On Tuesday night I was supposed to be going to the celebration night but Mum had to work so she couldn't take me. Instead of being at celebration night I was at home. Then I found out it was dinner time, so I went to the table and had dinner with Abbey, Levi, Dad, and me. After dinner I watched the amazing race on tv, and at 8:30 I got ready for bed and read a book.

celebratiion night!!

Last night at our school all parents and students were invited to come to the celebration night where would show off what we we have learnt and have fun.At 6:15pm everybody met at school and had dinner there,after that we had to fill out these litlle passports by going around to different class rooms and awnser some questions. I filled one out with my dad and brother,I really enjoyed it. When we had finished we had to put it into a litlle box and we would go into a draw to win,an Aquatic centre family pass, Wow mueseum pass and a free coffe or tea from the Jester house. Me my dad and my brother won a ticket for a free coffee.Thanks to all the people that made that night possible.At one point Tui was on the maypole and tried to grab the rope but fell into the water, and got soaked it was really funny.

Yesterday our class had decorated our desks and the classroom for the celebration night. I had also decorated my desk and made the desk tidy. Our family coudn't go though so we decided to stay home and have our fish. My mum and dad didn't feel like going because it was to wet. We had to show our parents the work that we done so far this term and celebrate God Is Faithful. I heard that everybody had a great time.

First Day of School

First Day of School

It was the first day of school. The muted morning light was still new in the sky when I woke up. For the past few weeks I had been so excited bout starting school at West Hill High but this morning I didn’t feel like even getting up. As I was lying in bed trying to come up with a excuse for not going I realized that there was absolutely no way mum’s gonna let me out this one. I sat up in bed and pulled my warm woollen blankets off me and felt the stinging coldness in the house, the new house was freezing, especially this time of the year and my room didn’t get any sun during the day. I stared out the window at the thick forest just outside at I wriggled into my new school uniform. It was hideous, the way it hanged on my like a curtain and the yellow of the top made my skin look pale.

Mum had offered to take me to school in the car but I needed some fresh air so I decided to walk. I knotted my long red hair into a shift bun, grabbed my school bag and headed out the door.

Early morning fog blanketed the world in blue-ish grey as I walked across our yard towards the forest.

TO BE CONTINUED…. MAYBE :P

 There were many teams but we only got to verse three teams.

We lost two of our games so we didn’t get in to the final.

On our last game against Nelson Intermediate  they cut

it was an awesome day. Our game was short because it was starting to rain, but we would have won if we had a full game.

WINTER SPORTS
Tuesday the 29th was a chaotic day for all as kids bustled around buzzing with excitement. Tasman schools from all around were all getting ready for a day of winter sports. The sports that Tasman Bay Christian competed in involved netball and soccer.
The weather turned out wonderful with a sunny sky. All schools were enjoying the sun before they all had to run onto the courts or fields. Soon teams were huffing and puffing around already exhausted before lunch break.
The schools that competed in winter sports were TBCS, Riwaka, Mapua, Parklands, Upper Moutere, Tasman, Lower Moutere, Brooklyn, St Peter Chanel and Motueka South. All the schools competed brilliantly.
The end result in netball was that Parklands won 1st prize and Mapua, Upper Moutere and St Peter Chanel came 2nd in a 3 way tie. The day was fun for everybody but by the end of the day everyone was glad to go home.

Making a Poster

This term our schools main focus is 'God is Faithful'. Mr Mathews asked me and a couple of other people to create a poster that includes, 'The big idea - God is Faithful', 'The Key Understanding - Gods Faithfulness is worth celebrating', and 'The Focus Question - What can we celebrate about God?'. So me, Tori, Asher and Risi packed on the task of making the poster.

At first we had to decide on the layout, fonts and colours we're going to use. I said we should write the 'big idea' in block letters, Risi then said it should be written in an arch. Tori decided on the colours and choose a light blue backround with yellow, orange, red and green lettering. We all agreed that our plan looked great and that we should start on the poster.

As we created our poster it was looking better and better, we were really happy with our god work.
When we finished, we all took a step back to look at our poster and it was amazing. Iwas quite surprised that I was part of making it! We were all pleased with it and showed Mr. Mathews and he loved it. We then decided we should put it up on the back wall of the classroom.

I really enjoyed making the poster and I am proud of it. :)

Bunnys

I really love bunnies, I love them so much i'm trying to bribe my teacher into getting one as a class pet but he doesnt want one, he always says ' Why dont you have a rock pet or get a pet that we can eat like a pig,' but that doesnt stop me from getting my all time favorite pet as a class pet.

Better than other pets
Unique to me
Noble king
Nice soft fur
Intellignt brains

Excellent pets

On the fastest girl race I was really close from winning but the girl next to me won  by a foot.Even though I came second I enjoyed giving it a go and hopefully I will get another chance at it next year. The results for everything else was fantastic.

Senior Ball Relay:4th place
Junior Baton Relay:3rd place
Senior Baton Relay:5th place
Nuedorf Sheild Race:3rd place
Fletcher ran in the fastest boy race and came in 3rd place

from kase :p

Athletics in the field!

The hand bell rang and the top fastest kids in our school went on the bus at 1:00pm and headed to Upper Moutere to compete in the Athletics cups. Such activities were... the junior ball relay, the senior ball relay, junoir batton relay, senior batton relay, fastest girl and the fastest in the school. Miss Aldridge was talking to us about since we are a Christian School we should show our behavior in the way we act. As we headed to the field they people holding the Athletics day talk to us and then asked us to come to the front of the building to show our respects to those who went to the war and lost their lifes to free our country and also to sing the National Anthem. Children from diffrent schools went and put flowers around a statue and then stepped back and for a couple of secounds in silence bowing their head to remember them before going back into the crowd. After the tNational Anthem we walked back to the field and the sports began. First up was the junior ball relay and we came 3rd in that, then there was the senior ball relay and we also came 3rd in that. Couple of minutes later the junior ball relay was on and they did really good coming 4th as for the senior batton relay we came 3rd again!!

Fastest girl was Risi coming a whopping 4th place! Go Risi! And the for the fastest in the school was Fletcher who ran really well and came 3rd!!
Over all we came 3rd in the whole thing!!
On the way back Miss Aldridge told us how well we all did. Nexts year I'm hoping to do the whole Athletics not just the ones for the cups.

Big celebration night!

Celebration night! There is going to be a big celebration night on tuesday 6th December where all the kids parents can come along and have fish and chips on the deck at 6:15 pm at school followed by an open class time where the kids can take the parents round all the classes to see the work that they've done over the last term!      See ICT in action and try some of the neat programs; And be entertained by some of the awesome writing the students have been doing this year. Your child will show you how to solve some tricky maths problems. And we will have a summary of the topic areas we have covered and some of the events and activities that made up those topics.
The celebraton night is going to be really cool so make sure you and your family come along.

MoTec

Last week at MoTec I finished off my cushion.

My cushion is black and has a dog with a bone on it.  It took me two sessions at MoTec to finish it.

Now I am making a foot stool.  We have to sew two straight rows down a piece of square fabric. After that we have to make up a square frame, then we have to stick the fabric onto the frame.

It is going to be fun to make it and it will look good.

I was standing in the staffroom when I saw Hannah and Shanara walking along the deck wearing their mufti gear.  Hannah was wearing a long, curly blond wig and I thought she was dressed as a singer or a movie star. I didn’t even know there was a theme. 
The girls came in to get a key and I asked them what the theme was. They just giggled and so I said to Hannah, “Hmm, who has long, blonde, curly hair?”  Then I clicked and asked Hannah, “Are you me?”
She laughed and said, “Yes!”
Then they told me it was ‘Dress Up as Mrs Rolls’ day.  It made me laugh seeing what the kids turned up in and I was so impressed.  They came as me, or one of my family or in my fav colours or things. 
We had an assembly and I gave out prizes and we got some great photos! 
I want to thank the staff, parents and kids for such a fun day!

Mrs Rolls Mufti Day

Today we had a Mrs. Rolls mufti day so we had to dress up as Mrs. Rolls or her favourite colour or any thing else to do with her.  I dressed up in her favourite colour green.
Mrs. Rolls didn't know we were going to dress up as her or something she likes but she did know that we were going to wear mufti, until Hannah and Shanara came into the staff room to get the key for our classroom and Mrs. Rolls saw Hannah and she had a blonde curly wig on and Mrs. Rolls guessed that they were dressing up as her and she was right.

Rainy Day

 

The sky was dark and gloomy; the sky was covered in ash-like colour. As the school children sat inside listening to the rain, they were doing their work but they had other things on their mind.

“Psst, Hope,” whispered Shanara.

“Yes?”

“It’s raining really hard.”

“I know, I really wish we could go outside and play in the rain,” Hope said.

“So do I!”

“If I was in the rain,” said Shanara, “I would go stand right dead smack in the middle of the field and poke my tongue out. I would play and play until I was covered in wet dripping puddles. Oh, how I wish to play in the rain.”

If I was in the rain, I would run and run until the teacher called us in,” said Hope. “The rain looks so tempting to play in.”

Rainy Day

Today is Thursday. It is a very cold miserable day. The rain is bucketing down. You can see drip after drop down the window, the whole place is a wet mess. The deck is wet, so is the playground.


“Isn't it a wet, yucky day?” Ethan said.
“Yes it is, it is a wet, soggy day,” I said to Ethan.
“I hate wet days, we can't  play outside,” said Ethan.
  

“What would you do if you could play in the rain?” I said to Ethan.
“I would jump in the puddles, and do bombs in the ponds of mud and get saturated.”
“Same here,”  I said in a exited voice.

Mrs Rolls Mufti Day

Mrs Rolls Mufti Day!

Today when the kids from Mapua hopped off the bus, Mrs Rolls got a big surprise!!!  I walked up the balcony in my blonde wig dressed all in blue green and purple and when I got to the staff room where all the teachers were I stopped and flicked my hair! All the teachers were laughing their heads off!

It didn’t take long for her to guess what the theme was either! It was pretty easy to tell that the theme was her when you looked at my blonde curly wig!!!    


All of the other kids did a great job of dressing up too! One kid had made a cardboard coffee cup! A girl in my class went in a cardboard book that she made, because Mrs Rolls LOVES reading. - Hannah. T J

Rainy Day

Today is a rainy day and the wind is blowing and the trees are falling. I like the rain.

“I like the rain,” said Ethan.
“I hate the rain,” said Asher.
“Why do you hate the rain?” asked Ethan.
“Because there is nothing to do,” said Asher.
“I like the rain it sounds nice and you can relax,” said Ethan.

I like the rain because you can jump, get all muddy and get soaked and feel the rain hitting your face.

Wednesday Trip

On Wednesday, while the year seven and eights were at MoTec, Asher and I went to the library. Well, I guess I’d better be truthful. We actually went to Hot Mamas for a hot chocolate and then we went to the library.

At Hot Mamas it was really nice, there was a fire was going, the hot chocolates were huge and we got marshmallows with them.

After the hot chocolates we walked down to the library with very full stomachs and I got four books called 'Mascot Madness', 'The Dark Rider' and two other books I can’t remember the names of.

So that was our Wednesday morning!
