This week for our reading tasks, we had to choose a villain and make a wanted poster for them. This was a quick and easy task, I enjoyed it though. What villain would you choose to make a wanted poster for?
Kia Ora!
At New brighton catholic school, we are so fortunate to get duffy books! Because we are so grateful for these opportunities, we celebrated it by dressing up as your favourite character from a book. It was a very vibrant day! Seeing cat in the hats, matildas, ellas diaries, the rainbow fish and so much more! At the beginning of the day, we had a parade ! Each class went around 1 by 1, and every kid had a chance to show off their cool outfits (and moves ).
Once the parade was done, the judges had to pick winners from each classroom. Those winners received a new book to read! Later on in the day, our teachers and school parents set up a big book swap. Basically you could go into the hall and get a book or two to take home, those books were kindly donated by all the children who no longer needed them.
I had an epic day, so much fun in the heat! Does your school have a book character day? if so, what did you dress up as?
hola, bonjour, French, guten tag, ni hao, Talofa and hello!
On the 7th of November, our school had a cultural day. On this day, we get to wear different traditional clothing. At NBC we try to incorporate as many cultures as possible! I came to school in a puletasi, a puletasi is the traditional Samoan dress for women. At the beginning of the day, the school started with an assembly, then we had a school parade and showed off our amazing outfits. We also had 3 performances, a Korean dance, a Irish dance, and a kapa Haka routine. Our task this week was to make a slide show about any culture we desire. I did this Activity with 3 of my best friends, Lilia, Leisha and Zara. I chose Mexico for this task. We had to research and find out about the culture, and what they ate, wore, and more. Hope you like it!
It’s coming to the end of the year and writing tests have begun. Week 3 Tuesday morning, were at school and doing e-AsTTle writing samples. We had two choices, you could write about the environment or what being a good friend means to you. I chose the second option. Each of us had a good 45 minutes to write as much as we could. While remembering our punctuation, paragraphs, structure and creative words. I enjoyed this task, it was peaceful in the classroom for once! Do you enjoy writing ?
Coming up soon at NBC , we have a market day. For market day you can buy a table and sell things on your table. Our poster had to include the date, time, cost and all of the important things. I worked with a class room bestie, Farrah. Farrah and I completed this in 10 to 15 mins. This will be similar to the new Brighton market, do you go to the new Brighton market?Come down to NBC and help fundraise for the year 8 trip to wellington!
Hi.
In writing, our challenge was to pick something to go into our school domain.This task was getting us ready for our writing assessment coming up. us intermediates have to mark ourselves on a rubric. Because my writing is long this blog is going to be short. I can’t wait to see what you think about my idea to fill up the domain!

Kia Ora.
Upstairs at NBC school, we have the amazing intermediates, these amazing intermediates were tasked to create a poster about media. What is media?? Media is a form of communication. While making this, we had to keep in mind that we had lots of options to choose from. Because media can be shown in many different ways. Either online, newspapers, magazines, billboards, posters and many more!What media do you use the most?
Today Thursday the 16th of October, our teacher asked us to fill out these comprehension questions. These questions were added to my last post. This was a tricky task for me, the hardest part was probably finding the 3 phrases that Europeans said to the moriori. I think that the design that the moriori came up with was great! What do you think about the Moriori, do you think that they were imaginative, or smart?
Kia Ora✌. This week, our relief teacher has been talking to us about washed through wakas 🛶. The washed through waka is basically made out of a big tree 🌳 that has been hollowed out. The slide your about see includes what the waka is made out of, and labels around the waka. Do you know what a waka is?
Talofa. For the last few days, my friends and I created a decent amount of slides to explain the 4 mysteries. The four mysteries include, Joyful, Sorrowful, Luminous and Glorious. These slides took about two of our reading times to complete. There is one character on each slide, find it and comment on what you found. Do you pray the rosary? LINK to slide
