Immersion Assembly by Esrah

From Immersion Assembly Term 4 2011

As soon as I walked in to the hall for immersion assembly I giggled at Mr Barks. He was wearing a freaky alien mask. Suddenly the screen caught my attention as it said “Outta This World.” It had planets surrounding the words. So I knew we are learning about space this term.

In an Immersion Assembly the teachers in every team have an item to perform. My favourite was the team my mum was in her because her team did a rap about planets. It was funny because they didn’t say a word, all they did was dance like a robot. It was really clever!

“Team five,” Mr Burt announced . I thought it would be a play but guess what! They stuck their heads on to the characters of the actual Star Wars movie. Did you know that Mr Harris was Princess Laia and Mrs Nua was Luke Skywalker?

I think that I would be good at learning about space.My favourite planet is Saturn. Can’t wait till we learn about it.

Cross Country by Shayne

Waiting with excitement for our cross country race, I was jumping up and down like a crazy monkey in the jungle. It was the 10 year old boys turn to run. Mr Burt said “On your marks, get set go”. I sprinted as fast as I could and I was coming first but sadly Lorenzo and Wyatt dashed past me like Sin Cara from The WWE. I could hardly see them, they were fast.

Eventually I ran on to the bridge where Ms Squires was right in front of me taking pictures of us. I tried saying “Hi Ms” but I was to fatigued to say anything. A quarter of the way I really thought that I was going to collapse. The track was so rocky.

While Anthony was jogging past me he caught up to Lorenzo and Wyatt. As soon as I rounded a corner this man said “Guess what your half way”. I felt like I was blessed.

Suddenly one of the shells nearly tore my shoe at the bottom. Luckily I've got shoes on." I thought to myself. Finally we turned around for the last stretch at the reserve near Tamaki College’s Technology hall.It was so rocky it felt like I was running on a desert.

Coming up through the bush onto our school field Hossana, Marvin and I had a foot race. We were all running as fast as we could but I only came second so I was so disappointed. I said “Flip I wish I came first” Marvin interrupted “It’s not about winning you know, it’s just about having fun and you should be proud that you completed the race”. I could now finally say “Hi Ms”.
