As I woke up on a Sunday morning, wondering what time it was I jumped out of bed and asked my Mum “What time is it?” she replied “about 9:30” Uh-oh I forgot about church.
I raced back to my room and scurried through my draws. I was worried that I wasn’t gonna make it to church on time. What to wear, what to WEAR I thought. I saw my jeans put them on straight away. I grabbed a random T-shirt from my draws, I brushed my teeth, brushing roughly, as I did not want to go church with stinky breath.
I zoomed off in a rush to find the brush. I saw the brush sitting on the couch as if it knew I was looking for it and I brushed my hair. I Slapped cream on my face and I took another look at the clock and it was 9:50am. My family and I walked down to church and I just made it in time.
Church was a peaceful time. We remembered Jesus as he died on the cross for our sins. It was an Easter Sunday.
Later on that day I received 7 Easter eggs. Four from my Sunday school, two from my uncle and one from my Dad. I can’t wait for next year.

Prayer to Jesus.
Dear Jesus,Thank you for dieing on the cross. May I follow your foot steps and may you forgive me for our bad deeds. May we help others when they are in need. Help me to forgive our enemies. Help me to share your good news and be thankful for what you did.
Amen

An exhausting day!!
It was a Friday morning and Saint Pius the X School had started the day with a beautiful St Patrick’s mass. Today was the day St Pius X School had their annual Athletics day .
Morning tea was here, everyone was getting ready for the day ahead of them. Everyone got changed into their running clothes. The groups were Kiwis, Geckos, Tuis, and Keas.
The bell rang . Everyone had to go to their house group.
The relays started. I was so nervous because I didn’t want to run in the relays. The kids were going up. It was getting closer to the 10 year olds.
The 10 year old kids were called up and I walked up with them.
It was time to run. “GO” said Mr Gaffney .
Time went Past it was now time for the 200 meter race half way around the field. It was optional .
I was thirsty I was patiently waiting for lunch time.
The Bell rang for lunch time. I was relieved and happy. I could finally have a drink
ahhhhhhhh, I sighed a sigh of relieved.
Suddenly I herd the bell ring again. That meant that lunch was over.
“10 year old boys and girls make your way to Mr Gaffney for your 200 meters race.” I didn’t run I just watched. Straight after that was the novelty races. 1st was Room 1 and 2 e.t.c. . Finally it was Room 7,5 and 6. We did relays.
Tui’s and Kiwis was first to challenge.
Tuis won the race. Kiwis were saying that the Tuis cheated. Now was Keas and Geckos. Kiwis were cheering for Geckos but I was cheering for Keas. The game finished and the winners was the Geckos. Then, all of a sudden their were people running again. The final winner was........................... ‘KEAS’ hooray I was yelling.
The final groups were Keas and tuis. The games were intense. Everyone was running as fast as they could. The games was over and the winner was...........................................’TUIS’.
It was the end of athletics and now we end it with a chant competition. The running winner were geckos the chant winners were geckos and the behaviour winners were.........................’GECKOS’ AGAIN Yay the geckos were shouting.

Last day of school
It was the 16th of December, the last day of school. It was also sadly the last day for Year 8, as they move with their life on to college. Holding their memories of St Pius X school inside them.
At the beginning of the day we all lined up ready to receive our daily messages from the teachers. As Room 6 walked into the classroom staring at our stocking’s that we made the day before we saw chocolate, candy canes and so much more.
As we said our prayer I was thinking about the new journey next year in 2011 with Mrs Tui as my teacher. Next our prayer ended with the sign of the cross in English.
As the day went on room 6 was finishing off our left over work and also helping Miss G take down our posters and pictures from the wall for next years students. It was finally morning tea as room 6 went to the tennis courts to play dodgeball. ’RINNNNGG’ went the bell as room 6 ran to line up.
In the middle block of the room was a stack the tables with everything else in the middle of our classroom. The school rang which meant that everyone had to make their way to the hall for a final assembly and giving out the last certificates of the year.
One of the first certificates went to a girl named Anita. As the certificate’s went on it came up to the music certificates for recorder, ukulele, guitar and so on. As I was sitting down when I looked up I heard my name be called out for guitar. I was shocked because I thought that another boy in the guitar group would get the award. As I walked up I felt proud and shy because everybody was staring at me.
As the assembly was ending it was time to give out the trophy and large glossy book, which was the Mainfrieght Award. As they were annoucing the person I was excited to find out who the person was. Mr Coakley said “And the award goes to.....................................Latai Vakauta”. Latai was lucky to get the award because she was one of the year 8’s leaving St Pius and now she has something to remind her about St Pius X School.
The assembly finally finished, it was a happy end. The year 8’s were signing each others blouse’s and room 6 ate chocolates and the rest of the school were saying bye to their friend’s and teachers.
That was the end of 2010 at St Pius X School and good luck to those year 8’s on their way to college in 2011.
