Last Friday, we had a water PAL day, but only one thing changed about it! Us, the year 6s had the experience to be a PAL Leader! We got to choose a game for our teina and the Te Ngahere kids for them to enjoy!
Something I enjoyed is seeing the little kids and the older kids play because it just makes me happy seeing them enjoy themselves. All of the work is worth it, seeing them smiling.
Amaira and I made a game together which was called water balloon tag, you had to throw water balloons at people and if they got hit, they had to join the taggers. The first option me and Amaira had was to pop the balloon. Reason why we changed it was because we didn’t really know what that game was.
The challenge me and Amaira had to face was kids not listening, when our teina don’t listen it always irritates Amaira and I. To overcome that problem we always help them on what they need to do and explain to them that they need to listen so they understand the exciting games.
One thing I could do better next time is not bring water balloons, only because it was really irritating when we had to pick up the small water balloon rubbish off the ground after the games.
