| This is the company that Jason works for. |
The first person we met was a man called Jason Young.He was introduced by Mrs Telea and then did a mihi in maori to talk about his background.He then began to talk to us in english about the special things he does.First he told us that he was a builder at Dysart.But now that he is older he sits at the desk getting quotes for the company. He also told us that he did this triathlon called Iron man where you have to ride a bike for about 180 kilometres (I think) and you have to run for 40 metres. And he did all this alongside Ms Tito, she is a former teacher at pt england and we all love her very much.He said that he did the triathlon at the total time of 16 hours.After that we got the opportunitie to ask him some questions. What the coolest thing about Jason was that he created a program called "Big Buddies" and it is where he helps boys with no fathers or no male role models to look up to. He said that he was raised by only his mother.He is also a close friend to Ray Tele'a ( Mrs Telea's husband) |

The second person we met was Fiona, she is familiar to us because she is Mrs Telea's sister and she is on the T.V show "The Casketeers".She said that she is a Funeral Director at Tipene Funerals. Fiona has one child and he is about 18-19 years of age. She is really funny and I know that because I watch the show.Mrs Telea is older than Fiona by 1 year so they are really close. She went to go study at Wellington and got a diploma in Funeral Directing.She graduating about a month ago.We learnt that she was good at sports like rugby and that she was a really good sprinter. She went to Grey Lynn primary and also went to Mangere College. She loves Mrs Telea's children and treats them as her own. She worked at the hospital and at Work and Income to help support the family.She then got a job at Tipene and is happy.What inspired her to do what she is doing was her parents.Her mum's name is Malua and her dad's Stanley.She was really funny and I enjoyed her visit.

Finally our last visitor, Tanielu. He is a former Pt Englander and is representing Auckland in the Blues team. He was saying to us and he said that what we learn here and now at Pt England is very valueble for when we get older.And also that the friends we make now will stick around until we are old. He said that the college he attended was Saint Kentigerns College. Some questions that were asked was whether he gets nervous talking to the famous people in his team.And another one was which parent he liked the most but we left that question unanswered because his mum was right there. He told us that he was one of the first seniors to be in the block we are today.Hesaid that he enjoyed doing animations and said all the things that the teachers are doing for us now will really help us in the future.
Thank you to the three visitors who shared words of wisdom.They would be very useful in the future.
