This Morning at 9:25,All of Team 5 had to meet in the street because there was a guest coming to talk to us about something,Then When Mr Patterson came to talk to us about what are we launching in our future, we knew what he was going to talk to us about. First we talked about What is our Aim for success, There were three letters A + I = M, it had taken quite time for all of us to figure it out, then some kids put up their hands The A stands for Aspiration. Aspiration means when your parents or your alarm wake's you up in the morning, Your just thinking about how is your day going to turn out, either is it going to be a great day for you or another boring day for you as always.

The Last one was M, M also stands for Motivation, It means when some one motivate's you,It was onto the next slide it said Aim for success! Aiming for success means Aiming for your future and upcoming things like going to college. because he came here to talk to the year 8's and the year 7's to. but he came to talk to the year 8's about college because it's their last year here in Team 5.
Be a Giver not a Taker. because if you be a giver then you are doing the right thing to the person your giving to. if you take from some one that means your not doing the right thing and your just Taking something that isn't the right thing to do. Because Mr Patterson was saying to us that he just came back from Australia and he got here and he said that his flight just got cancelled, and he said he had been waiting in line. There were about 100 people waiting in line, he said he saw a young couple and their 3 children that was under 5.

Flounder day

Today at school we all had to go on the court and Mrs Burt told us what we were going to do when we got down there and we said our school karakia and then Mrs Burt said year 1s and 2s go first and then follow on. When the year 7s and 8s walk down it was so fun because we got to talk to our fiends and the walk didn't even take that long. when we got to the crossing ms haere was standing on the road so that we could all crossed safely when we got to the end of Pt England road the is a street called riverside when we turned on to riverside there was another teacher apposite Riki road and so we crossed again we finally made it to the Revserved we notice there was 12 or more in the sea catching baby flounders to put in our school tank to help then grow and then we are going to put then back in our Pt England sea. when every one was there they were just starting to sing a waiata so the year 7s and 8s all had to rush in to the back the waiata were Whakataka te hu, tai aroha, ka waiata. and then another karakia. it was finally time to walk back to school was cool because we could get out of the cold and talk to our friends walking back was exactly the same as walking down just a little more louder the walk there. What i really liked about the flounder fishing was that we could take them back to school and watch them grow up and the put then back in the sea. Total of flounder that were cached was 20 flounder
