My Report...

On my report it says, Pesi is a talented sports person. She enjoys being a member of the girls rugby team. In class , Pesi needs to be more considerate of others as she tends to be quite loud and disruptive. She needs to make sure that she focuses on her work and asks for help if she needs it.

In our foundation subjects I did not improve my work. In my writing I’m at a year two level and in reading I’m at a year 5 level, and in mathematics I’m at a year four level.

My goal is to try read, write and do maths at my age level, and by the end of the year I will strive to succeed and reach my goal.

Tamaki tech...

It’s our last day at our tech class for term 2 because next term we are moving to another tech class.

Today we had to create a pizza. The class that I’m in is Food Tech with Mrs Heka. First we had to put our base on the bench. Our base was Pita bread. Then we put toppings on our base. The toppings that I used were Pasta source, Cream Cheese, Chicken, Meat balls and then Mozzarella Cheese.

The pizza tasted delicious that I had to save it for some one to taste. We had to cook our own but this other group had a desert one it was so nice that we all were so hugest that we all wanted to make our own but there was no time. Can’t Wait till our next tech class.

Rugby...

On Tuesday 28 June 2011 Pt England rugby girls were meant to go to Otahuhu Intermediate, but it got cancelled because of the immunisation. We were all hungry and frustrated because we were all looking forward to this moment but it all right because we can play them another time. Our boys were play today to but it got cancelled to.

Last last week on Friday we were meant to play viscount, but there filed were munted and it got delayed. We had to play at our school on the next Friday but it got cancelled because our school fields were munted to. So we do not know when our next game is. The boys were meant play to but there one got cancelled.

Having to cancel the games were not good but we are looking forward to our next game hope our next game is not cancelled.
