Edgewater College Athlehics Day

On Wednesday we had a athletics day at our school. First of all we got change into our PE gear and had a early morning tea. Then we went out into the field. They were lots and lots of other people there. And they were 4 different teams. The teams were Jones, Hillary, Shepard, and Ngata. I was in the Jones team like last year. First I went and did short put 3 times. Next I did some long jump. In long jump we had to run and jump into a sand pit 3 times. After that I went and did some other activities like running around obstacle courses and the 400m run. The 400m run was really long and I felt so tired after that big long run. Afterwards we went back to class to have lunch. Lastly we went back out into the field to watch some other people do the run and then we got into our taxis and went home. We had a really fun time at the Athletics Day at our school.

Cleaning up rubbish on our school field

On Monday, we went to pick up rubbish on our school field. First of all we got plastic bags and put on gloves. Then we went to EWC 3 to get the other students. Next we went out onto the big field and started on the right side near the gym. I pick up about 50 pieces of rubbish like I filled up the hole bag. After a while we went up to the bit where the new classrooms are and we picked up more rubbish there were lots in that area. Lastly we went to the bins next to the gym and we put the bags in there and went back to class. I was surprised of how many rubbish was on the school field.

Keeping the beach clean

Yesterday we went to Farmcove Beach to see the local waterway. We went in the big Toyota van. When we got there we went for a walk around the beach and we saw lots of new houses and boats. After that, we went into the sand area of the beach  and picked up some rubbish. After that we went and played in the “Snakes and Ladders” on the Snakes and Ladders playground that they had there. First some one had to roll the dice and had to go up along ladders and go down by slides. We also went on the exercise machines by the carpark.  I had a really fun time at the beach and I hope we will go to look at other waterways in the near future.

Keep it clean!

Some of the waterways near our school are Tamaki River, Panmure Lagoon/Pond and Cockle Bay. We want to protect the Environment and our beaches.

My trip to Motat


On Saturday I went to Motat with my Dad, Brother and my step Mum. First we went into the main museum and we looked at things like old computers and old arcades. Afterwards we went into the next building and saw some old machines. Later we went back outside and looked at some old houses and a old church. A Moment later we had lunch at the Motat cafe. I had chicken strips. Then we went on the tram past the zoo to the aircraft museum. I saw an old New Zealand Air Force aircraft. Lastly we went back on the tram to the main bit of Motat and went home. I had Domino's Pizza for dinner that night. My pizza had beef and onion on it. I had a really fun time at Motat.
