Rugby League

On Saturday the Leopards Rugby league team played a game in Papakura. We went to play against the Papakura Sea Eagles. The Leopards won the game 28-16. When the game was over the Leopards went to the prize giving. Then my coach went up to the stage and called out my name. I was very excited and nervous. I went to get my certificate and I also got five dollars because I was named the man of steel. Thereafter a lady gave me a calender and a t shirt as my prize. It was a great day for me. By Viliame

Visiting China

I spent one month with my family in China. It is my country. I was excited to go to my village and visit all my cousins. The houses looked very different from the houses in New Zealand. Most people ride their bicycles instead of travelling by car. The adults play a Chinese game called Mah Jong. In China some people grow plants such as sugarcane,lettuce and celery.I had a lovely holiday and couldn't wait to be back at school. By Julie

Easter bunny and Easter eggs

The easter bunny visited our school today. Mrs Key drove him around the school on the small red truck. Easter bunny visited the classrooms and took photos with the teachers and children.
We were busy making easter cookies in the technology room when students from King's College walked in with a basket full of eggs. They gave all the children an easter egg. Thank you students for being so kind. We wish everyone a Happy Easter.
