This week our school celebrated its 101st birthday. To celebrate we all get piece of a huge birthday cake! We had a big assembly to celebrate the different cultures in our school. Rongo and Taiana performed in the Kapa Haka and Pasifica groups. They were awesome! There was also the chance to win a poetry competition that the student counsel was running. We had to write poems about what the school meant to us. We wrote poems inspired by " Red Wheel Barrow" By William Carlos Williams. Here are a few:

Room 9 has thinking brains.
Do you know what we mean?
It means that we have got a virtues brain.
The virtues brain shows the virtues of:
Unity, Kindness, Respect, Cooperation,
Self Discipline and Peacefulness.
That’s not it though,
There are heaps more for us to learn.
