EWES Inter-school Swimming Sports - Fri 4 March on PhotoPeach

Rodney College Head Boy and Girl visit to Room 6 - Wed 23 March 2011 on PhotoPeach

Visit from head boy and girl of Rodney College


On Wednesday 23rd March Room 6 had a visit from the head boy and girl from Rodney College. They came to talk to us about leadership and the responsibilities of being head boy and girl. At the end of their talk Room 6 had a chance to ask questions. Some of our questions really made them think. They talked about when they went to a leadership camp and about some the things they did. They ended up showing us some of the games that they played. But then it was time to go and so we said goodbye and thank you. I think Room 6 learned a lot from them about leadership and also had a lot of fun.

We played pukana and finger grab. We all really enjoyed them. They told us about the leadership roles when they were younger and how it helped become great leaders. Some of the roles they had were cadets, Surf life saving, whanau leaders etc. We had a great time with them and we learnt lots!

One sentence stories

As the water came crashing down over the streets I heard screams and scared people crying then it was all over.

And there came the big black water streaming past me at 100kms an hour flooding everything in its way, pushing cars into brick walls then the water was at my feet.
