<br />
Today I put out the flags when it was spitting. My flag is the active thinking flag. I got tonnes of drops of water on my glasses. Today I thought the leaders meeting was on today so I was early enough to do my flag. It was funny when Emma H asked if I did my flag because I'm usually late so I don't do it but I did it before her and that was funny. I have been going well with putting it out this week which is a good achievement.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6043141205788245404.post-62904739016958582002015-10-16T07:50:00.000+13:002015-10-16T07:50:08.678+13:00Leadership reflectionMy goals from the start of this year that I wanted to achieve by the end of the year are:<br />
<br />
1. Get my Distinction Leadership badge- I've have now achieved my Merit and Excellence and I'm on my way to achieving my Distinction.<br />
2. Be a role model for younger students- I try to show the CARE values as much as possible so that when younger students look up to me, they see a good example.<br />
3. Be an awesome Deputy Head Girl- I have been fulfilling my role as Deputy Head Girl by opening and closing assemblies, being a role model to other students, showing the CARE values, getting my Leadership badges, and having a positive attitude.<br />
<br />
I have nearly achieved all three of my goals. My next step is to get my Distinction badge. Hopefully I do!<br />

Over the past 3 days, the year 7/8 have been participating in Koru Games. I have been in the Girls Basketball team. </div>
<div>
I really enjoyed getting 3 baskets towards our win against Lincoln 5-0 because it was our first win. </div>
<div>
Thinking back to the beginning of the year, I really improved on being competitive towards the opposition and dribbling around people.</div>
<div>
Something I will remember about Koru Games is my epic savior of scoring 3 points against Lincoln.</div>

Yesterday, I took over Poppy's job as a PAL because I couldn't do it today (winter sport). We were with the juniors and we played a numerous amount of games. We played Octopus, Simon Says, Crocodile Tag and many more. It was quite difficult to explain the boundaries to the kids as we didn't have any cones, yet you should know if you're playing on the Junior side of the field, or the Senior playground.. Nearly everybody got a turn at being Simon but the kids who didn't started up the game 'Crocodile Tag'.

On Wednesday, Emma, Hayley, and I were the DJ's of Oaklands School.

We played half of it then we had to do a sudden interruption and apologize to our many viewers. We always muck around in the Radio Room and we almost committed a crime: not turning our microphones on!!! Last time our microphones weren't on for nearly the whole session!

<br />
Today Sarah, Jesse and I got a free (not really) guitar lesson because a couple of weeks ago, Roger was sick so we missed out, but we had to have another one because our parents have paid for ALL the lessons. It was fabulous! Last week, Roger gave us "Hold Back the River" by James Bay which is my absolute favourite song at the moment. When he gave it to us, we had no idea what the picky bit was and even Roger struggled with it! He still is struggling with it but I spent a whole day playing guitar so I can nail it! It is a really beautiful song and Sarah and I are going to perform it in the Oakland's Got Talent. I hope we do well...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6043141205788245404.post-36347873034164642652015-06-18T14:04:00.001+12:002015-06-22T14:58:40.575+12:00Reading follow up from ages ago<br />

I know, I haven't done it yet but I did something pretty awesome to do with it.<br />
Miss deSchot emailed the house leaders about judging the Kakano Talent Quest and I just made a graph of who can do it each day and emailed it to her. I did it very quickly and she, Mr Ladbrook and Miss O were very pleased :) I had made a minor mistake though by not checking with the leaders first to see if they were available and then sending her the results but I sorted Hayley out reasonably quickly and adjusted the graph and sent it to Miss deSchot. <br />

<br />
As house captains and leaders, we need to put out our school flags (showing the CARE values and our school name) and bring them back in. We have made a schedule so that the girls put them out and the boys bring them in, or vies versa depending on the term. We have been doing this regularly though I have been late to school many times so I haven't been able to put mine out. Lately I've been keeping on top of it, but every now and then I'm late so I can't put it out. It's a good job though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6043141205788245404.post-33317988924186198402015-05-26T20:12:00.001+12:002015-05-26T20:13:05.103+12:00Cyber Safety<span style="background-color: white;">Excellence evidence: Cyber Safety</span><br />

I am in charge of running a Cyber Safety course for the school. I have just recently written out 2 scripts that we are performing in the assembly (Hayley, Emma, Azriel, Becca, Jackie and Cassidy that is). The first one that we are performing is about 'Putting Your Personal Details On The Internet' or 'Personal Info' for short. I have juts earlier sent the skit scripts to the actors so they can practise. If you want to see more just visit my Google Docs.<br />

Last week, Jesse and I were given a new song. That is 'The Only Exception' by Paramore.<br />
I've heard that song be3fore, but it looks really difficult. Especially the riff. Woah! It even looks scary! There is some chords in there that I've never heard of either, just to make it difficult enough.<br />
We didn't go over it so I can't practise it which is a bummer. I've lately found out I'm the oldest and the most experienced guitar player student in the school!

Yesterday I was being a role model to younger students by being nice and playing with them. We played a small game of tag and then I set them up with a game of octopus to play. They really enjoyed so they got all (I mean all) of there friends to play. It was a massive game on the field. Eventually, I had to leave them to play by themselves. What helped me was that they didn't follow me or pleaded me to stay.

This career will suit best with my personality because I find enjoyment in writing, reading the paper and magazines, and having something new to do everyday. It is difficult to find a job in this area because lots of very experienced publishers who are trying to get a career in this area and where there is very limited availability. There is quite a large range of categories for a journalist you can choose from depending on your capability. Depending on the job, your career can be aimed towards different focuses such as </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">newspaper and magazine publishing businesses, radio networks, television networks and production companies, online news sites</span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">, researching for presses, writing scripts for television presenters, supporting local events. But to get to that stage you’ve got to have experience. The subjects at High School would be a good place to start.</span></div>

English helps you to improve your writing and teaches you different techniques (for the different topics in journalism) which can help you to build a unique writing style. Media Studies will help you get familiar with the editing program and printing department;also television presenting. History and Classical teach you about the different eras in time. It also lends you knowledge of different areas for the information to put on paper (you want to know what your writing is true!). Te reo Maori is mainly for the translation department. If you looking into that type of journalism, Te reo Maori translation has a lot of availability! These subjects will help you get a better understanding of your focus at Polytech.</span></div>

To help me become a good journalist I need to the skills such as good interviewing skills, writing skills, knowledge of the area of specialisation, and good editing skills. I would also need to be </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">enquiring, curious, persistent and patient, with excellent communication skills, confident and motivated, accurate, able to accept criticism, good time managers and able to work well under pressure, as deadlines may be tight. </span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Although it is a huge financial cost completing the degree; it is the only way to get to my career goal. This step is important because at university I will get taught the skills and knowledge needed to become a journalist. Journalists have a very stressful job to complete their work and for this reason I would need to be calm under pressure. Additionally, I would also need to be accurate as whether I get the true facts of the topic are crucial to a business's reputation. </span></div>

Fortunately the degree I need for journalism can also be used for other jobs such as an author, television presenter, radio journalist and an editor. This means that I will have a better opportunity of getting a job as there are many options. Another reason why having other jobs to choose from is that if don’t get the job of a journalist then I can always apply for many others similar careers . </span></div>

One positive thing about getting the journalist degree I need is that it can be used for other jobs after I graduate.</span></div>

2 weeks ago, We had Cross Country so no guitar could be done.<br />
So I decided to talk about my practising!<br />
I practise about 4-5 times a week to keep up with all the strums the new songs have. The other girls can't even keep up with me! I've already learned that tricky strum that I was working on earlier for 'Something in the Water' by Brooke Fraser which is an amazing song. It sound even cooler with the neat strum that goes with it instead of the constant annoying strum which is just up-down-up-down-up (etc.) which just makes a long vibrating sound that sometimes hits a clank on the guitar. <br />

<span style="background-color: white;">2 weeks ago, Jonathan, Cody, Rebecca J and I conducted the PALS game. </span><br />
No body showed up.<br />
We planned an awesome mega game of Octopus but all the little juniors didn't want to play!<br />
Usually they're so pumped to play that it looks like they could run around the field one hundred times!<br />
We waited for about 10 minutes just for a single kid to show up who wanted to play tag. His friends didn't want to play so he ended up cruising off. Rebecca and I did too. We both had basketball practise so their was no point in hanging around with training to be done. <br />
So we had no game.<br />
So sad. :(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6043141205788245404.post-47582999523354516342015-05-18T19:17:00.000+12:002015-05-18T19:17:32.142+12:00Radio Station<span style="background-color: cyan; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Excellence evidence: Radio Station</span><br />

Last week, Emma, Hayley and I had our turn on the radio! Mr McCullam even said we were the best radio hosts in the school! So lucky!!!!!!!!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Since he said that, Emma just had to say it on the radio. He seemed very alarmed; which we find strange because we were likely to do that. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">I took over the computer because last time, Hayley was mucking around with so we had to announce the 'Technical Difficulties' over a hundred times. Because of the music having a better manager (me of course) the operation went along smoothly. We talked about the game of hockey in Winter Sport that we were looking forward to. We giggled about the conversation around the 'Widest Tongues in the World'. </span></span><br />

I have been learning how to do 'loci'.<br />
This is a locus circle.<br />
Its radius is 5cm as shown.<br />
How to calculate the loci:<br />
<br />
We use 'pi' (no, not the pie you eat) which is 3.14<br />
Then we calculate it.<br />
3.14(pi) x 5cm.<br />
Okay, but thats only half the circle.<br />
We need the whole circle, so we times it by 2.<br />
2 x 3.14 x 5cm= 31.4<br />
Thats loci.<br />
<br />
To do the diameter not the radius you will be shown this:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Instead<br />
3.14(pi) x 8cm.<br />
With out the need to double it because its already the whole circle.<br />
