About Me

Talofa Lava my name is Nathaniel. I am a big fan of league and I am a big fan of the Brisbane Broncos. I also love cars, cars is my passion. My best car is a Ford Shelby V8. I have been going to Point England school for over seven years and I've loved it here now that it is just myself here (my sisters used to go to this school too).

I play league for the Mt Wellington Warriors under 12s. In my team is Sione, Jonty, Lepa and Starford. I am looking foward to this league season.

I like cars so much that I want to be a mechanic in the future.
This year I am looking forward to all the different sports that we will have at school. I am thinking about joining the rugby, league, softball and netball teams.

Camp TC (Take Charge)

Nervously but also full with lots of excitement, I packed my bag on Sunday. I was ready for camp.

The camp was for the year 7 and 8 students. It was held at Point England School on the top field. It was very cool because the year 7 and 8 got to celebrate 21 years of school camping. My group name was Motivatorz and my leaders were Sione and Paulitia.

My group, Motivatorz, first activity was putting up tents, that’s my best activity. Putting up tents was fun. Sione, Tevita and myself were in the same tent. We were the first people to put up the tent so we went and helped other mates.

Our second activity was Hangi Prep with Ms Tito and Mrs Ryan. Hangi Prep was one of my favorite activities for that day. It was cool because I got to see Toko, Tama, Piri, Tainui and Tom dig the pit and sterilise the baskets. The flame was very big it was about to burn the tarpolin that they had put down for the dirt.

My best activity was kayaking. When I saw the kayaks I was surprised because the last four years we have kayaks that cover your body. These kayaks were more open and could fit two people. Some of the kayaks were named Malibu Two - that means its for two people. We ended kayaking with a refreshing swim.

Overall my camp highlight was kayaking with Mr Burt. I got to steer Mr Burts boat and I really enjoyed it because Mr Malloy asked me to put it on high speed. The boat sped and splashed through the water. Camp TC was stupendous and I wish I could be here next year for camp.

Toa Samoa In Ngaruawahia

3 buses had been waiting for our Toa Samoa rugby league teams since 6am. We were going to play in a one day tournament.

When we set of to Ngaruawhahia, We were all very hyped up ready to beat the other teams. We were having fun listening to music while flicking through a league magazine.

We finally made it there after servel hours. When we got of the bus we were provided a big tent so we could gather around for a meeting. We were sussing out all the other team members.

We were up to our final game against Hakula Tonga under 11's at 10 past 5. It was a very hard game We won the game with heaps of points.

We were exhausted on they but we were very proud of ourselves.

Sponge bob square pants

Sponge Bob is my favourite cartoon character. He is a yellow square that lives under the sea and has a lot of friends, he is a very creative and outstanding character and always has something fun to do. He makes me laugh by him doing his laugh and when he is playing dumb.
My favourite episode is 'The Best Day Ever', especially when he misses out on Squidwards time to shine with the clarinet. It is funny when he makes a list on what he is doing today but does not end up doing what he had planned, but then all of his friends stayed behind and sang a song called 'The
Best Day Ever'.
Square Pants best friend Patrick who is a pink starfish, who lives under a rock is always up to trouble when he is with Sponge Bob. Patrick is not like Sponge Bob who has a job and being very creative.
I will never forget that episode and Sponge Bob , especially when i had a fun time watching and laughing a lot.

Immersion Assemblies

IMMERSION ASSEMBLY
Do you know what an immersion assembly is? An immersion assembly is when all of Point England staff members dress up relating to the topic for each new term.

This term we are studying ‘Mighty Mariners’. There were a lot of pirates, but my favourite one was Mrs She. She looked like she wanted to kill Captain James Cook (Miss Burne) with her sword.

One of my favourite assemblies, was ‘Active Earth’ because Mr Burt brought all these things to help survive if a tsunami, earthquake or a storm hit Glen Innes or Pt England.

I think that all schools should have an Immersion Assembly because it’s fun and exciting. It also gives us an idea of what we’re studying for the term.

State Of Origin

''Did you watch State Of Origin? I did''. My favourite team is North Queensland. I was shouting out "GO GO GO GO". It was time for kick off the hooter went Darren Lockyer kicked of to New South Whales.

My favourite try was Darius Boyd's from an offload off Jonathan Thurston. The second best try was Darren Lockyer's because he just ran through a hole. The score was 24-28 to Queensland.

Mel Meninga, the greatest legend of all, is the coach for Queensland. He was happy to see his boys out there representing their state. Craig Bellamy (the coach of NSW) was shocked to see his side lose.

I can't wait for the next game in June. "Go Queensland!".
