Principal's Challenge

In my last post I told you how I achieved high standards in a maths and science test getting into a an extension program in my future high school. Now I will tell you about something else I aced. It is term 3's Principal Challenge. Every term the years 6 and 7 have principals challenge while the younger years a luckier and get year level challenge. Principals Challenge is a big test but the hook is instead of being tested by your teacher or having it on paper our principal actually comes and does it herself. In the test there are 20 multiplication questions, 20 mixed operation maths questions, 20 spelling words (we have a study sheet of 85 words to study with) and 10 general knowledge questions (we also get a study sheet for that as it is on a different topic every time). The aim in the first term is to get 100% or be in the top 20 ( principals challenge) or top 5 (year level challenge) in the second, third and forth term the aim is 100%, top 20 or top 20 most improved. Last term (term 3) I got a visit from one of the year 6-7 teachers. They had come to get me to change a letter in and answer I had accidentally spelt wrong in the general knowledge, instead of Tae Kwon Do I had put Kae Kwon Do but my teacher and our principal had agreed that it was close enough but they were going to get me to change it so they didn't get confused and mark it wrong. The only reason they had gotten me to do that was because had they not let me do that I would have only gotten 99% but they said I deserved 100% so they let me change it so I could get 100% and not be so annoyed at myself because of that stupid mistake. Either that or they wanted to see if I could keep up that standard for the next 5 principals challenges I will have to got through. So this time round I got 100% in the top 20 and I think I might get most improved. So good luck to me for this coming term!

Mathematics, Science + LEAP

Last term (term 3) all the year 6's had a big science and mathematics test. The test was also and entrance test for something at the high school Kieran goes to and that I will be going to called LEAP.
LEAP (Lesmurdie Extension and Acceleration Program) is the extension maths and science class. After completing the test at a high standard mum had to fill in some forms about me or something and my teacher had to also fill in a form about my behavior level homework standard and other things. after all that got through mum received a letter from Lesmurdie high school for my acception in to the LEAP class. 3 others from my class also got into LEAP. So I can't wait to start high school not only because I have gotten into that extension class but because there are still more extension classes to get into that Kieran has not yet gotten into and because many of my friends will be going to that school as well.

Horses

Hey, I told you 2 things, well more than that but only 2 things really count in this one.
Anyway, I told you that I have planned 17 posts to write and that I would write about horses well this is a post about horses. And with the 17 post thing I will bore you later. But for now HORSES FOR THE GO!!!



As you may or may not know I collect horses. Not real ones of course because if I did then I wouldn't have any. I collect horse figurines  of the brand name 'Schleich' and at the moment I own 58 horses which takes up 3 shelves on my book shelf- A BIG PAIN!!!!! Because it means I now only have 3 shelves to fit my books on, and if you know me than you'll know that that is very little space for my books.

ICT

It's so fun learning something new like earlier I learnt how to change my blog header and back round-SO MUCH FUN!!-and my new background so me! :P Anyway that leads me to ICT at school it's so much fun and you always learn so much in 1 lesson.
My class goes to ICT every Wednesday straight after Recess. We (and every else in the school) are taught by our Deputy Principal, Mr Meachem. Lately we have been working on a custom made mothers day card for our mum's (obviously) but in the one lesson we've had on that I've already learnt so much.
Which just proves changes can be good no matter how big. And to be honest I don't think-no matter how good of a teacher Mz Corsan is-that if I had stayed on at Whenuapai I wouldn't have learnt such things I have learnt for 2 terms a Wattle Grove. But I will still miss those lessons we had from Mz Corsan 'cause there was much more fun and work at the same time than there is at Wattle Grove, but we still learn a lot in Wattle Grove even if the work is not too much fun. Oh, and Mz Corsan "Can I go on the big board next week?" BTW that's just a little thing I like to do to her-It's SO MUCH FUN!!! So don't worry about it.

Guess?

Can you guess how many post's I have to do-in my opinion-to get you back to date one life?

17!!! 17 god damn post to get you back to date with my blog.

Oh well better get started then, Huh?

Oh and BTW I only write these posts because I am Bored and have to do something fun on my blog every once in a while.

My Birthday

My birthday was great!!! on the 22nd me and 2 of my friends Alyssa and Petra had lunch and played and then had my cake. My presents were money, toy horses, lollies (they didn't last long) books, writing paper, stencil book and coloring pencils. The weekend after that Alyssa and I went horseriding and then to the hotpools and you cant forget starbucks and a sleep over. For my birthday I went horse riding I rode a horse named Pepsi and Alyssa rode a horse named Lenora we went on a trail ride with some other people then Alyssa and I got separated from the rest of the group and went trotting down to the bottom paddock and when over some poles not jumps poles. Then we finished la de da and you know the rest I suppose.

St John

Hey everyone,  at the start of the 1st school team my Dad found a place where I am able to go back to doing my usual St John routine during the week. It's different now because it is on a Monday night from 6:30 until 8:00pm. It is different and has changed a lot from the way we do it in New Zealand but it is interesting and you do learn a lot from it and now  I seem to know a lot more than I did before-Probably just more confidence in myself (I don't know how that works). The things that have change most about it that in stead of the DRSABC like in NZ it is DRSABCD with I know is only 1 letter but more things have changed. I know I shouldn't be complaining and be greatful for what I have, but, nothings perfect and surely if your reading this blog you must know that by now. But as nothings is perfect I wish that it is perfect- and by perfect I mean I'm homesick and want things to be just like they were in NZ the St Johns over there was a lot less work and more fun as in not much paper work and more hands on experience pretend blood and casualties so we learnt more. But still  it's fun and I'm glad to be doing it again like netball and blog-posting. Bye.
