Visit to the Life Education van - Tevita Faletau and Caleb Keenan

Today the class went to life education. We learned about five team rules. Flexibility,focus,communication,respect and reliability. We learnt an action to remind us about each one.
Flexibility is all about dealing with change. Focus is about listening to the speaker and don’t get distracted. Communication is about responding and listening. Respect is about helping people when they fall down and show the speaker respect. Reliability is about if someone said “Can you pick up my pen?”, you do it.


I enjoyed standing up at the middle of the van, showing how the people to do the actions.

Today we went to life education. We learned about five team rules. They were:
Flexibility, focus, respect, reliability, and communication.
Flexibility means dealing with change. Focus means to keep on your work. Respect means take care of your things. Reliability mean if you say you're going to do something you do it calm. Communication means if someone wants to something let them, listen, comment, ask questions and respond.

What I enjoyed, doing the actions. Paula showed us actions so we could remember them.
What was hard, writing this.
What would I do differently next time, go up the front and read the five rules
