...

My final DLO at Pt England. It's a been a long 8-9 years at PES. I've enjoyed every moment here. I made it my job to finish it off properly by finishing my last DLO. 

This term, our topic was Art Alive. For our animation, we had to create an art gallery about our life! An image of our family. An original graphic image of something we are passionate about and a painting of an artist we studied earlier this term.

Famous Artists Painting.

I researched about Vincent Van Gogh with my class. I chose a painting from his famous series of sunflower paintings. Vase with 12 sunflowers. He communicated his gratitude with this painting. 

Passion.

I created an original image of my passion. Education. Math, Reading, Writing. I love all subjects at school. Ultimately, Education is to help us learn. But, it also helps develop our socializing skill and more. 

Family.

I didn't have a photo with my whole family, but I managed to grab an image of someone important in my life. I added a cartoon-like effect to the photo which definitely made it look more artistic. It is an image of my sister and I. She reminds me of my younger self and I want to set a good example for her so she can follow in my footsteps. Once I leave, she'll be starting at this school. Family is something that lasts forever and is a gift!

Watch the video above to hear and see more information about each artwork. Thank you!

Camp 2021

This year, camp was really fun! I am really great for the opportunities that have been given. We have been waiting for this camp for so long and it is very sad that it has ended. So many memories have been made during the three-day event.

The activities we should definitely keep for 2021 are Archery, Paintball, Air Rifles, Railway Jiggers, High

ropes, Go-karting and Gym games.  I think that we should add a campfire night so that we could roast

marshmallows. It would also be really fun for the future year 8’s that go on this camp.

Overall these three days are really important. It is really good for us because we can show off the

potential we have as leaders in our school and community. As a school prefect I had the opportunity to

sit back and watch everyone step up, take their role as leaders of  our school. I am very proud of

myself and everyone else!

Protests - Writing 2020

PROTESTS

Why do people protest? To fight for what they think is right, raising awareness so we
can all make a change in our community. For more than 150 years, New Zealand has
had the freedom to protest. You can protest if you want!

What is a protest? A protest is a party of people taking action against or for something.
Hikoi, March, Strike, Petition, Meet and Rallies, these are the different ways you can
protest. The group of people share the same understanding and perspective and try to
convince the other side to see what is wrong!

What causes a protest? Protests are an action-based response to a controversial topic.
It usually occurs when people have had enough of staying silent. They use their voice as
an attempt to influence the public, government and more. 

Do Protests actually work? Yes! But, it depends on the people who are protesting and
the government. The protesters must be able to convince and have evidence to support
their protest, Our government should also be able to listen and understand what they’re
trying to say, they should also make the right and best decision for their people and
land. It all decides on both sides!

Now that you are more educated on protests, what are you gonna do? WIll you use
your voice and amplify others' opinions? You have the freedom to protest about
anything. You are able to protest and change the world!

Task Description

This is my writing about protests. It took a pretty long time to write and I am very proud of what i've written. Hope you have learnt more about this topic!
