Term 4 Immersion Assembly

This term began with another amazing PES Immersion Assembly! Each team of teachers creatively presented a snapshot of what their team will be learning this term.  Check out Team 3's Musical Madness video and watch for future posts of our own assembly recounts.

2017 PES Cross Country

This past Friday, the students at Pt. England School took the the back field, pasture and Pt. England Reserve as we held our annual Cross Country/Fun Run.  The students of Team 4 have been preparing for this event all term, and we were really pumped to get out there and show our stuff!

We hope you enjoy our movie highlighting some of the days excitement.

Team 3 Visits the Stardome

This past Wednesday, the year 3 and 4 students from Team 3 spent the day at Auckland's Stardome.  We had so much fun exploring and learning at the Stardome before watching the very cool Planetarium movie. We also had a time period to hang out outside and have some kai before playing on the amazing playground, which included a flying fox!

Here is a short video highlighting some of the fun we had on our trip that we played during our school newscast PENN.  Enjoy!

The NED Show

We were very blessed to have a very cool assembly this week called "The NED Show.'  Ned reminds us all that there is a champion inside everyone.

NED reminds us all to:
1. Never give up
2. Encourage others
3. Do your best

Not only did we get to hear all about what NED stands for, but we were also able to see some pretty cool yo-yo tricks.  Students were even given a chance to purchase their very own NED yo-yo to practice their own tricks.

Cook Island Language Week

As part of Cook Island Language Week, we had an amazing group of students perform during our school assembly today.  It is always exciting to see our Pt. England students sharing aspects of their cultures with others. In the Pav, we were mostly proud of our sweet Lydia not only for performing beautifully, but also for being brave enough to speak in one of the Cook Island languages to open their performance. However, both Mr Moran and Mrs. Moala had a great time dancing up on stage when they were selected to be part of the "Around the World" dance at the end of the performance.

KiwiSport Tennis Week 1

This week, the students of Room 11 started learning how to play tennis!  We had so much fun learning how to use our rackets from our new coach, and we are so excited for the rest of the term with him.

Welcome Mr. Helmhout!

This past week, the students of Room 11 have been blessed to work with Mr. Helmhout.  Mr. Helmhout is a student teacher from AUT and he will be with us for for the next four weeks.
