You only get out of life what you put into it

You only get out of life what you put into it. That is our teachers favourite motto, it practically means that you can't expect things to happen without trying, you can only achieve something if you work for it. So for us Yr 8s, this is the term to work hard to achieve our goals at Mapua school.

Emily's Goals ;
I would like to get at least three '3s' at athletics day, that is the highest amount of points you can get for each individual activity.
It would be fantastic to get good scores for my high school tests.
When I go to my work experience, to get involved in the activities and be able to do the job properly and efficiently.

Laura's Goals ;
I would love to get at least two 'excellence' in my report this year.
To get into the talent quest and come 1st, 2nd or 3rd place.
When the tests for high school come around I would be over joyed to get great scores.
To get another maths award at the awards assembly.

Well it is sad that this is the last term for us at Mapua School, but hopefully we will achieve our goals.

Goals For Term 4 Georgia & Harriett

Georgia's goals
This term I hope to get a better score for Athletics than I did last year. I am also really looking forward to starting our careers unit and going to the careers expo. Another thing I am excited about this term are the Whenua Iti overnight stay for the house leaders and looking forward to the Aquatic centre and rabbit island trip.

Harriett's goals
This Term I am aiming to get the most improved cup for my maths. I think I have greatly improved in self-confidence and my written work. I have been spending a lot of spare time at home (both this year and last year) going on online games and going over things I don't understand by doing more of it. I used to have to go up to the teachers desk A LOT during maths time because I could work out the problem, but now that rarely happens. It would be a really great end to my last year at Mapua School. I will have felt that I had really achieved something.

Our hopes for this term


Isaac:

I would like to get a 3 in at least one of the events in Athletics. I would also like to get in the top 10 for the Talent Quest. I would also like to get a 2 in high jump because I normally only get a 1. In the disco I would also like to do some more of the announcing on the stage.

Owen:

I would like to make it over the high jump and get a very high score in the long jump at the Athletics. I want our band to play well at the rock fest.

Eden and Eva's goals for this term....


Eden's goal: My goal for this term is to improve my fitness skills so I'm ready for athletics, another goal of mine is to improve on my mathematics. I also would like to be the best I can at singing and piano/keyboard so I can perform well at the talent quest.
Eva's goal: My goal is to complete the level I am in, in chinese and to pass my exams so I can move onto the next level. My goal for school is to improve on my dance with Laura for the upcoming Talent Quest.

Hannah & Sophie Goals

Our goals for this term are to get through the class auditions and and if so do well in the big talent quest. To achieve this goal we will work hard, practise a lot and be all we can when we preform. We will work hard on our weaknesses and improve on our strenghts to perfect our performance.

Another goal we are both striving to reach is to get the the most out of the one day that we spend at out chosen work place on the topic of careers. We will make sure we achieve this goal by listening and absorbing all the needed and important information.

What We Want To Achieve This Year
