Jamie- For school uniforms
Pako- More sport
Caleb F- Why people should come to NZ for the rugby world cup
Julia- Against School being shorter (less days at school)
Blake- We should wear mufti
Britney-Re-open the canteen
We will post some of our arguments soon so watch this space!!

Ben's and Caleb's poetry anthology
Over the last couple of weeks we have been doing poetry.Ben and Caleb were the first people to finish and we are going to share some poems on the blog.
Ben's Limrick
There once was a man,
Who ate out of a pan,
Until he was a old man,
With a beep and a bop he went pop,
So he went to his mate Dan.
Caleb's Limrick
There once was a little young boy
Who was sadly allergic to soy
He drunk some champagne
which gave him a jolly great pain
His allergies he does not enjoy
Caleb's Haiku
My body froze while
Listening to lovely birds
Cheeping all day long
Ben's Haiku
Chirping Birds Flutter,
A Loud Ear Bursting Aeroplane,
Crispy Brown Leaves Fall.
We hoped you liked reading them rather than playing computer games.

Saxton Field trip
On Friday, the Kakano syndicate went to Saxtons Field for some fun and games. Unfortunately Miss Keall was unable to go but Mrs English went along and kindly took some photos of the days events.
Have a look at all the fun the students had....
