Catching flounders

Today Pt England School had a special outing. The whole school gathered and walked down to the Tamaki Estuary to watch Mr Voight and some of our students, cast large flounder nets out to try and catch some flounder. When we got to the reserve we all sang some waiata and said a karakia the group of students were already in the water dragging the net through the sea to catch the flounder. The reason we were catching flounder was so we could bring them back to school and put them in our special tank, where Mr Voight and his team would take care of them. We were very lucky that it did not rain. Everyone had a nice morning out of the classroom.

Guess what time of the year it is again?......it's the Manaiakalani Film Festival!

Room 4 has been working really hard on their film about, hmm thats right its a secret sshh.

I can’t give away too much but I can tell you, when you watch our film you might lose your appetite.  If you enjoy food you will like our film. Most of our class took part, and we all really enjoyed making our film.
Our film will make you laugh.
I think our film is really funny, I would like to thank Mrs Judd for all her hard work and creativity in helping room 4 put their film together.

Tongan language week

Last week was Tongan language week. Here at Pt England School we have a large student body of Tongan students. Pt England and Glen Innes have a very large Tongan population.
Every year in New Zealand, we celebrate Tongan language week, here at Pt England School we started the week by one of our Tongan students Bobby John introducing Tongan language week to our senior assembly in Tongan.  In our Friday assembly we had some of our Tongan students perform a traditional Tongan dance for the whole school to enjoy.
I liked Tongan language week.
