Rivesdale Beach Education Program 2012

On Monday the 13th of February, the whole of Wainuioru school is going to Riversdale to do some fun activities and learn about being safe at the beach and in the sea.
We all went to Riversdale 2 years ago and everybody had a lot of fun.
We hope it will be a nice day and sunny and warm because we are going rain, hail or shine and it might be cold in the water.
Read more blogs next week where we will tell you all about our fun day.

Winning the final

On the 3rd of September our rugby team Gladstone/East Coast U11 won the final against Greytown 21-14 at Wairarapa college. Greytown beat us in the finals last year but they did not this year. It was a hard game as it was hot and the score was Nill-all for a very long time we only won the match in the last 5 minutes with a converted try. The chairman of Waiararapa bush handed the shield to Cameron after the match because he was the captain of the team. Everybody was so happy and proud of we played so they gave us chocolates.

Theater Sports

Last term Jessie, Maddy and Annika went to a Theater Sports Extension Programme as they were picked to represent Central Wairarapa in the Theatre Sports Competition. We were being taught by Mr Brooks, we were sorted into teams and we learnt some new games, then we made up a team name and a team intro. Sadly we weren't informed when the competition was on and missed it which was a big bummer, O well mabey next time.

leadership camp 2011

In April I was picked to go on a leader ship camp in the Wairarapa. I went for two days. There were 2 year 8 students from about 10 schools that went. While I was there we went to a place in Greytown called Shoc chocolate. They make some of the best chocolate in New Zealand. In the shop I saw a chocolate bunny for $280 and it was huge. Also they were giving out free samples for every one which was my favourite part. The same day we went abseiling. Abseiling is a sport where you climb down the side of a cliff with a harness attached to you.When I was half way down my rope got really tight and I couldn't go down. But in the end I got down. It was fun. The last challenge we did was called a $10 challenge and we had to go though a supermarket and we were given $10 and we had to buy something that contains a carbohydrate, veges and a meat. Joe from Lakeveiw shcool and I made a curry and it was delicious. I am glad I went and I learnt alot from it

Olivia

On the 6th of July the Art Splash group with a couple of others went to the St. Matthews production. It was called Olivia and it was held at the St. Matthews auditorium. It is similar to the movie, Oliver, except the main character is a girl. The characters were amazingly talented at playing their role, singing and dancing. The production went for around 1 hour. I can't wait to see another one of their awesome productions.
