2016 Review

Today Ls2 has been Creating a DLO or Movie about there journey in 2016. I made a Stupeflix to show my learning and my reflection on this year with Ls2. I would like to give Ms Kirkpatrick and Mrs Anderson a big thank you for teaching me everything and getting me ready for college.

2016 Graduation

On Wednesday night the year 8's of P.B.S went down to Pakuranga salling club for Graduation. I made this Stupeflix video of my reflection on it. At the end of the day we all had fun with our friends and teachers, I would like to say a big thank you to Ms Kirkpatrick for making this happen and also to Mrs Anderson and Mrs Berk.

Care Awards

Today Sebastian and I taught Mrs Anderson how to play capture the flag for our care awards, so basically Sebastian and I draw out a picture on how to play, you can play this game any where anytime with family and friends.So here are some tips on how to play capture the flag. First get cones(Any sized cones) then you split your teams so they are even. Next line your team up on each sides lied on the ground. Then someone will start the game, then both teams split your teams and make a choice on who should stay on defenses and half of the team try to get to the other base. When you are in there base you are safe and you can't be taged. so there is a line in the middle so it is half. If you are taged in the other teams half you are taged and now you have to wait for one of your own team mate to come and save you.
