My thoughts on Glen Massey By ITB


My Essay

My Journey at Glen Massey School has been amazing. From five years old to thirteen years old. From year one, to year eight. I remember the first day of school, I was so scared about seeing all of the seniors. I thought they would be mean to me. But I was wrong. Everybody at Glen Massey School is loyal, nice and responsible. All the seniors were responsible, caring, helpful and in some ways like brothers and sisters to me.


Glen Massey is a magnificent school. All my friends are kind, amazing and fun. The teachers are so responsible, polite and organized. The principal of Glen Massey School is friendly, organized and he cares for the students. The Glen Massey mission statement is learning for life. Learning is a big part of this school. Our school values are; Fairness, Objectivity, Respect, Loyalty, Integrity, Friendliness and Empathy. All the students here are energetic, inviting and awesome. Our curriculum is really fantastic and we have high standards and with a lot of hard work, students achieve high. The school provides us with so many opportunities. We have learnt to become leaders, role models and to care for our younger students.


Bullying is not tolerated at Glen Massey School. There is a lot of sporting opportunities too. Such as, Sogo sports and team sports. All the students care about the school environment. To help our environment, we pick up our rubbish and weed the gardens. Over the years a lot of people have asked, where is Glen Massey? It’s about 20 minutes out of Hamilton and 10 minutes out of Ngaruawahia. It’s a small country school. Throughout my journey at Glen Massey School there has been a bit of bumps and bruises, but if it wasn’t for those bumps and bruises, I wouldn’t be as strong and who I am today. I’ve loved being a part of Glen Massey school. I’ve became a leader and a role model for younger students. Glen Massey School has been a huge part of my life and I am proud to say that I am student of Glen Massey School.

Starting 2013...

Finally adding some posts for 2013! What a busy year it has already been. We have been working on our swimming skills with Selena from Kelly Sports, making ice cream (as part of science), and looking at personification. See below for some photos of us making ice cream through a physical reaction.






End of year picnic.

One of the last events for the year was the school picnic. Mrs Brown couldn't believe how well everyone looked after each other. Everyone took turns on the kayaks, pedal boats and hydro slides. Some of use even convinced Mrs B to have a go on the hydroslide we just didn't tell her how cold the water was going to be at the other end! Lots of fun and lots of laughs, a great way to end 2012!
 












 

Making Gingerbread men! (2012)

As a treat for the end of the year Mrs Brown made some gingerbread men for us to decorate. They smelt and tasted amazing!
