We were lucky enough to have the local Year 8s come visit today so they could see what it's like to have a day at high school.
I ran two classes in which we wrote essays about our values- the same lesson as I have done with my Year 9 class this year. Here are some of their paragraphs...
My value for the rest of my school years is respect because I haven’t been a top noticeable person to my teacher and I need to work on admiring people’s ideas. Respect is important because it is telling you that you need to be kind to others and you need to be forgiving and responsible towards visitors. I learned that respect is valuable because it contains loving and caring for each other. What makes you respectful?

The value I've chosen is 'Manaakitanga' which means caring for others in English translated from Maori. This is a way of showing that we come from a valued school with caring intentions and caring thoughts. This value is important to me personally because not just me but everyone should feel the need to care for others in order to earn their trust and let them know that we can be trusted. When I show this value it makes me feel proud to show this value to everyone who I care for or someone I want to know better so that I can earn their trust and gain more friends. "Caring for other,s running the risk of feeling, and leaving an impact on people brings happiness"- Harold Kushner
Integrity is like honesty and this is important to me because it is good to be honest. It’s not good to lie, its better if you be a good character so later maybe you might show integrity to someone.

St Pius X Catholic school values are Advance in Faith, Hope and Love. The meaning of our values is to always have Respect. Respect is also one of our #1 values in our school. We have positive attiitude everyday but if someone feels down we will all comfort that person and make sure we don't have anyone have a bad day. Our priority is to look smart when we are out of school and if somebody in our school shows off then we do not encourage him/her to keep being silly.
And those are some of our school values.

Show positive attitude. Positive attitude means that to show respect and show positive thinking. And a settled way of thinking or feeling about something. When I show a positive attitude I greet the teacher and behave do my work. I ask for help if I am stuck. I get this value from myself and my mum. This value is important because it makes other people feel happy.

The value I have chosen is 'Whanaungatanga' in English means = Building Relationships.This value is important to the community and to me, personally. This value is great to have because it is important for people to have friendly friendships. Basically, not having friendships is not knowing anyone. This value is important to me because we all need a close friend that knows us well, and to me, I need to develop on the skill with the community so I am also confident everywhere and in front of everyone.

One of the values that I really like is, Respect. Respect is one of the values that we use at Point England school. Respect is really important for me because if you’re not respectful then you’ll just be rude and disrespectful. That is where you get no where.
“Respect your efforts, respect yourself. Self-respect leads to self-discipline. When you have both firmly under your belt, that's real power.” -Clint Eastwood This quote that I found is on Respect Quotes.
One of the most important values we had at PBS was Respect. We show respect to our teacher also the environment. We think is important because at school we had a special assembly all about ANZAC, so we must show respect for the soldiers who lost their lives to protects us and the country. We also have to show respect so people will be friend with us and also try to believe that we are a good student. If we show respect by listening to the teacher so we can move to the level and we must need instruction so we can do all the task in the correct way. We learned that respect is the most important for us and for others. We got this values from PBS because in term 1 we were talking about place values.
People (Friends & Teacher) see me as a guy who respects rules, equipments and respects other people. I think respect is very important in because if you have no respect for anyone, they you and have no discipline for you. Its also because everyone should be treated how you want to be treated and that's nicely. Such people need respect as well with sympathy and emphy. Respect is important to everyone and also to me because the people needs respect and to also get along with each other. Last week we had showed respect to those who fought for us and gave us the life that we wanted.

Respect is all about having manners and showing each and others the right way at the right time with the right attitude. Plus by using the 3 P which means protection partnership and participation.
To show respect is to listen when someone is talking and not talking well the teacher is talking. Respect is about admiring someone about what they can do. If you want to be treated well then you will have to treat others the way you wanted be treated. And show what awesome looks like.

One Value I think is important is respect. This means that you respect people and property. This is important to me because it is a school and personal value. When we show this value we use manners speak politely be sincere and do what you say you are going to do. I learned that respect is important value to the school and to me. This value came to me from my family and school. My parents’ value is also respect and so is mine.

Tukumarie. What does this value mean to me? To me this value means to be peaceful, caring and responsible. A way I show being responsible in the community is by being around people that will not get me into trouble. To be peaceful I will need to be humble when losing in something or getting angry.
Cavhyon, Tamaki Primary
At Pt England School we have values. Values are something that are important to you. One of my values from school is Matapono E - Keep It Real. This means that we have to be honest not only with ourselves but with others as well. This is important to me because it reminds me and others about keeping it real. I think that if everybody showed Matapono E than we would always be happy. When I show this value it makes me feel proud of my self for being honest. This is a quote that I think suits this value:
"We learned about honesty and integrity - that the truth matters... that you don't take shortcuts or play by your own set of rules... and success doesn't count unless you earn it fair and square."- Michelle Obama
