Leadership Programme

 Last week while the year eights were at camp me and the rest of the year sevens stayed and took part in the year seven leadership programme which was held at school. At this programme we learned more about being a leader and what it means. I was was in Duck life, it sound awkward at first but it didn't really matter because being part of that group was really enjoyable. 

In Ms Tipenes class, we made poster that included inspirational thoughts / quotes but before picking a quotes we were told to pick a shape or a picture to draw for us to put the quote inside. After drawing the shape and writing the quote on a paper then we were to draw it on the paper then we put it on a bigger paper. In this class we our chant. 

In Mrs Ilaoas class, we played lots of game one of them were a cookie game. In the game you get a cookie there was twenty or more people in duck life so we only had one cookie each before we start playing the games we had to get into group of seven and I think there were three or four group altogether. After getting getting into the groups we played the game and my team one but not only did we win but we also had lots of fun. 

On Friday morning we had a school assembly like normal except since the year eights went to camp and the prefex were goon the year sevens took over for them. After the assembly we had team challenges. My favourite game was the cup stacking game even though me and a couple of people didn't take part we just charred on the people that were play.
