Howmans Gap AND School Fete!

Hey viewers, so sorry to be so late on updating! Still very tired from School Camp at Howmans Gap. It was awesome, there were so many activities and the food was great! I recommend for anyone going into grade 6 next year at Rowville.P.S to go on the School Camp. It's something you mustn't miss out on! And also the School Fete was on the day all the year 6s that went on camp came back. I was so exhausted from camp it was hard to keep myself awake. On the other hand the School Fete was loads of fun. I went on the Cyclone, and had a go at the Laser Strike. I also bought some fairy floss and some hot chips. I can't wait till next years School Fete.

This Friday, well tomorrow, is the last day for term 1, so we will be having a 2:30 finish. I may update during School Holidays, if not will update later in April. Stay Tuned!

School Photos

The School Photos were today for the family photos and photos for the year 6s who are going off to camp on Monday. Everyone was looking pretty and clean. I had my photo taken in a matter of seconds, it was really quick to get our photos. On Monday there will be some more photos for everyone except the year 6s because of course their off on camp!

I will let you know on how grade 6 camp goes when we get back on Friday next week! And don't forget the day the grade 6s get back from camp is the day of the School Fete! See you there, maybe!

Parliament Trip!

Today was the most coolest experience ever. Apart from the McDonalds lunch break, the tour of parliament house itself was great! Our tour guides name was Trevor, and later on Mr. Kym Wells gave us quite a bit of a talk about his experiences, and some pretty cool behind the scenes secrets. The buildings were extraordinary, and the features were quite amazingly expensive. We learnt about the buildings at Parliament House, the law, the history of Parliament House, the positions of resposibility, and most importantly, all the different political partys. The knowledge I now have about how to be a leader, will help me a lot throughout the year. I will be using this knowledge as well as learning some more.

This Friday I will be letting you know about the school photos. And the grade 6s are heading off to camp this coming Monday. So when we get back on Friday I will try let you know on how it goes. And before I go I would just like to let you know that the Friday the grade 6s get back from camp, is the night of the School Fete! So don't forget to come!

Cross Country

Today was the School Cross Country, and all the year 4-6 students participated. There were 3 different catergories. By the way the boys and girls are in seperate events. Anyway there is the U/10s, the U/11s, and the U/12s. I was in the U/12s. Last year and the year before that I had come 1st. So today I was hoping so bad that I would win, for the 3rd time in a row! And before I knew it, we were racing. I was leading for about the whole time exept for the very start, but appart from that I was 1st the whole way. I had been training for this, and it all paid off. So next stage for me is District where i'll be up against other Schools in the district, for the run to come top 10 to get to zone. May I win it again for my School!

Don't forget that Monday is a public holiday. So I'll report to you on Tuesday about how the Parliament trip goes, at Parliament house!

Badge Presentation

Sorry about not being able to share the news of the grade 6 presentation, on Monday, but I'll just tell you now. So I'd just like to congratulate the School Captains for 2010 Adele Mackie, and Nathan Pendleburry, they really deserved it, and I'm sure they'll do a great job! In addition to the School Captains 14 people were awarded with the role of Senior Minister in the School Parliament and I was lucky enough to be one out of the 14. The Senior Minsters have been to many meetings already discussing the new plans for Rowville here, and will be going on a Parliament trip to Parliament house next Tuesday. There we will be learning a few more skills on how to be a better leader. Also on Monday we had House Captains. There was a boy and a girl for each individual house. And there are 6 different Houses. I am in Bergin the red house.

Tomorrow is the School Cross Country, so everybody from grades 4-6 who attend Rowville Primary, get your running shoes on and don't eat too much in the morning! Good Luck!
