Goodbye Post :)

This year being a year 8 in Room 19 has been a successful year for me.It has being a grat year spending time with my friends and our lovely teacher Miss Tito. Miss Tito has been a great Teacher this whole year, when I hit college she will always Miss T will be at the back of my Mind tell me to finest your Work!

Next year when the year eights move to different school all of the boys and girls going to be split up,also all of my close friends are going to be going different colleges. This going to be the last time that I'm going to see my close friends that I grew up with at Pt England school.


I would like to say a big farewell to all my favourite teachers and also my principal Mrs Burt and to a;; the staff, I would like to say thank you to all the teachers that help me with my learning and also telling me that I was a smart kid and also telling me that I was funny kid .


Next year its going to be weird because my friends aren't going to be there. Its going to be a bit scary because its going to be new school and I don't know what its going to be like at my new school. Next year I want to have a good class and good mates to hang out with.


What I will be missing about this school when I leave is going to be the teachers and my friends..

Camp

Recently we went to Keswick christian camp in Rotorua for our year eight camp, when we were getting ready to leave school Mr Burt was talking to us about having the best attitude and acting the pt England way. As we were leaving on the bus everyone was waving out to the teachers out the window and getting ready for a long drive.


When we were driving along the way to Rotorua we stop at a park so that we can have lunch and also have a little bit of fresh air,so we got back into our sets and get ready for another long ride before we get to Keswick christian camp.


When we got to the campsite we all jump out of the bus with excitement and enthusiasm just wanting to go throw our stuff into our cabins and to try out our beds. In our Cabins there were five to six people in one cabin. As we all thought that we were just stay in our cabins Mrs Nua blew the whistle to tell us that we will all be going on a never bush walk.     


During our camp we did a lot sightseeing around Rotorua like going to see amazing things like
watching the geyser exploded into smoke. As we were still sightseeing we shot off to the campsite to unload our stuff then we jump back into the bus to go the pools.

on the last day we went for a ride on the luge and on the sky lines when we got in the skylines it was like we were floating in air. When we were at the top of the mountain we went to the luge for a hard ride down. As we were going down the hill everybody was nearly crashing in to the side of the barrier. Then when we finished we headed back to school.

Nelson Mandela

Nelson Mandela was born on july 18 1918 he grew up in a small village.Rolihlahla Mandela at Mvezo in the Transkei,his parents were Nosekeni Fanny and Gadla Hephakanyiswa. Nelson Mandela had 9 siblings.

Rolihlahla Mandela went to a local Mission school in his Home village Mvenao,When he received and educations to Clarkebury to boarding school Institute for his Junior Certificate. Then he went to a secondary school which was called Wesleyan.  When Rolihlahla Mandela was still in school he came a long to a teacher who called him Nelson because the teach couldn't pronounce his name properly. 


In 1962 Mandela was arrested and charged with high treason along with his collaborators. The Rivonia Trial, as it came to be known would turn Mandela into a symbol of the struggle against apartheid. 

In 1990 nelson Mandelawas finally released from jail, But he still thought against the white to get equal rights. He was Elected by Parliament as the  first president of a democratic in South Africa. Then he launched his autobiography long walk to freedom
.What i learnt from nelson mandela was to treat people respectfully weather they are the same color as you or not. Treat others the way you want to be treated.
