Why is it important to be on time?

Why is it important to be on time?

It’s really important to be on time, especially if you were expected to be somewhere at a certain time. Why do you think coming to school or church on time is really important?

At our church, going to church on time is really important because people don’t like to miss Sunday school or miss out any important notices. Even if people attend church late they also miss out on welcoming the Lord Saviour into their hearts and worshipping him. Those are the most important parts of going to church.

Attending school on time is the most important thing. If you are late you miss out on important notices, the roll and the karakia to start off your day. You don’t only miss out on those stuff, you also miss out on explanation of your school work to start off with or for the rest of the day.

If you’re a person who attends stuff late. You will end up in school detention or very close to losing your job. Teachers or bosses will always want a person who is punctual.

Why is it important to have class/school rules?

Planning:
-know where all the boundaries are
-disrespect
-breaking rules
-bullying
-safety
-swearing
-thefts
-manners
-discipline



Why do you think rules are important in schools and classes? Well let’s find out.

Having no rules in classes can be a very hard class to learn in. It’s because students in your class would be very disrespectful and won’t get a good education. A class with rules is very different to a class without rules. If your class has rules it’s going to be a very respectful class and they will always show their teacher the best they can be. Students would be trying everything their teachers say to do.

A class without rules would be a very bad class because they would have no respect for others in their class. If we had no rules, our class would be full of thefts, swearing, fighting and disrespectful people. So it’s best for all classes to have rules because everyone can stay safe and it would be a good place to be in.

A class with rules will be a very good class that shows respect for one another. Our class would be a very good and hard working class. Every class has got to have rules at each and every school.

If our school didn’t have rules it would be a school full of violence and our school property would be ruined. Everyone would just go crazy and do whatever they want instead of learning.

Immersion Assembly

At Point England School we had an Immersion Assembly on the first day of term. Full of excitement the classes walked to the hall all together. Team 5 was waiting for the other classes to sit down in the hall.

It was team one’s turn up the stage. Their item was about going to the beach and learning what’s at the beach to inspire their art work. One day this term their going down to the river to look for some ideas for their art.

Next it was team two’s turn for their item. Their item was about primary/secondary colours. They showed a little short video of what the colours are and when they mix it together what colour it’s going to turn out. After their little video they gave us simple questions from that video.

After that it was team three’s item. Their item was about artist and who invented art stuff. In their area they are learning more about famous artist back in the days. It was really interesting because they showed who their artist was and what they painted that was really famous. The artist was Da Vinci, Andy Warhol and Splash. Walking off the stage with heaps of cheering and clapping from the students watching.

Team 4 teachers item was similar to team 3’s. But their item was a bit more fun and had a bit of laughter. In the area they’re at they will be learning about artists back in the old days. It was finally the last team and that was team 5. Save the best for last. They didn’t perform anything but have painted and created a painting. Painted and painted while the song was playing, no one knew what it was until they turned it around. When they finished they turn it the other way and guess what it was? It was a painting of Mr Burt, Mr Jacobson and Mrs Jarman.

After all the teams items, Mrs Tele’a came up to show her Malu. For those who don’t know what that is it’s a Samoan Traditional Tattoo for a lady. She showed the main parts of it and also explain why it is important to us Samoan people. You could only get it when you’re a lady back in the days but now you can get it at any age. Only ladies can get it not mans.
