Attitude Talk with Tony: Puberty

Today at Pt England school for the Year 7 & 8, we had our very own Attitude Talk about .... Puberty with Tony. Tonyq has already been to our school and had an Attitude talk about Friendship and finding ourself.

He has come again to talk about Puberty and the things that change in our body while growing up.

He was a really funny Islander presenter. 

He told us some of his funny childhood story that happen to him while growing like "The Lord of the Ring story" Where it was the first day of collage for Tony and he was walking to his friends to play bull rush until he saw this one guy that was technically the fastest guy in the school and that he had ever seen he also had this really funny man bun. But ever time he would run past the other kids he would make funny faces at them. So he decide to stand up and go right up to him and tackle him until he was only looking at the bun and accidentally bumped off a girl instead of a boy.

He also talked to us about cleansing our face and taking care of our body while we are going through puberty he said its alright to go through these things and that you should ask your parents or one of your siblings to help you out. 

No matter what we go through in life we are very valuable. You shouldn't give up on your dream and should continue to be successful in life.

Term 3 Inquiry: Ballerina & Hip Hop

For Term 3 in inquiry we have been learning to dance Ballerina & Hip Hop

For ballerina we all as a class learned a ballerina dance and performed it to the whole of team 5. Then in the next week we learned how to dance Hip Hop in my group there were four people: Penny, Jaylim, Apii and me it was very difficult at first but we got the hang of it. Then in the next three week (which is today) we performed it in front of the whole of Team 5, I was very nervous but felt happy. We did our Hip Hop dance and ran off stage quickly I felt happy and relived.

I enjoyed doing this task for inquiry it was fun and I experienced a lot, I also learned that team work makes the dream work.
