Camp Feelings!

Hey bloggers 

Tomorrow is camp! 

And a lot of the Senoir kids are very exited like me but we also have differnt feelings for instance  I am a little scared because I have gone skiing three times and been on the mountain to go tobogganing once before but I have never gone skiing on the mountain. I'm not so scared about the skiing part because it's really easy i'm scared about the dangers like rocks or avalances. One thing that will really push me to my limits is the gondalas. I went to Rotorua and went on a gondola when I went to the luge. It's really scary when it stops half way up the mountain and you feel like it's going to fall.  One thing that I will gain from going on camp is making stonger friendships not with my good frineds but with the whole Syndicate. 

After camp I think I will feel very relevied because I am not hurt I will also be happy because I will be reunited with my family.

Holiday Narratives

Hey there bloggers!
This term we have been writing narratives about our holidays. We sort of did a recount but we exaggerated it and turned it into a narrative. At first we did a plan in our books using a mountain. The bottom of the mountai]n was your starting sentence then a little up the montian was a promlom then at the top of the mountain was the climax (the worst part of the problem). After the climax there was the resolution(a little down the mountain) the part where you fix your problem. And lastly there was the ending. I really liked doing these naratives because I could use my imagonation to create something that I worth reading. unlike recounts everyone thinks there boring.

Here is a bit of my story

Then suddenly they disappeared and I was falling into blackness.  For a second I thought I had died, but then whenever I thought of something….. it appeared!! Then I realised where I was, I was in my own IMAGINATION! It was so fun.Click to continue my narrative.

Have fun reading! Blog U later

Basketball Zones

One week ago on the 1st of August me and 9 other senior school students went to Basketball Zones. It was a lot of fun and we did very well. We won 4 lost 3 and drew 1. There where 9 schools there including us the schools were Waikowahi, May Road teams 1 & 2, Christ the King, Three Kings teams 1&2, M.P.L.S, Hillsborough and Halsey Drive. It was a very energectic day and at the end we were all very tired. The event was held at Trust Staidum in Henderson. Sport Auckland sponsored the Event and ABSL Auckland Basketball Services Limited organised the event.

One highlight was when I blocked this kid from Hillsborough and took it down a scored. Then in the second half I got ankle broke by the him. That was very funny. I also made a few friends on other teams this was cool but then they won because I wasn't focused on the game I was to busy talking to my new friend. 

Here are some photos of the day.

Climate Change March

Climate Change March. 

On the 24th of May there was another Climate Change march. This time the whole of the senior syndicate went. This was very fun as everyone of the seniors got to experience a march. We all made signs to march with, mine said I want a hot date loaf not a hot planet that was what our main sign said but we had lots of little signs stapled on to our piece of wood. The march was at Aotea Square and there was a lot of people marching. We marched down Queen Street and we did a lie-in where we lie down on the road for 1-2 minutes to make traffic. We

successfully shutdown Queen Street for 1 hour and 5 minutes. After the march was finished I went straight home while the school went back on a school bus. It was a very fun day and I hope to do a third one.

Term two Sbs's

Hey Bloggers welcome back. How's term three going? I know it's term three but I'm going back to term two when we had novels. My novel was called Bow Down Shadrach. The book is about an old circus trained horse named Shadrach and a girl of imagination named Hanna. Joe and Sophie ( Hanna's parents) brought Shadrach soon after they got married. Then Shadrach got sold to a dog food factory but when Hanna found out she went to the factory to get Shadrach back.

I though this book was awesome and I loved it. I like how the main chaacter was a girl and I like haw she was so feisty. she has very deep feelings about Shadrach and I was cool when she made a plan to get him back. 

 After reading the book we had to do comprehension questions about the book and had  an activity as well. I will put links to the Questions and my activity on a photo below.

Vegetable Smack Down

The Vegetable Smack Down 

Hey there bloggers! 

Over the last month we have been studying one type of fruit.
Our fruit is a Kiwano. A Kiwano is a spiky looking fruit that tastes like a grape for about ten seconds then it just tastes like nothing. First we had to walk around our class and right down all the vegetables and fruit you know. Then you chose one fruit to find out information. We did this for about two or three days then we sort of left it UNTIL...
The teachers told us where doing a smack down. know one knew what that was so the teachers told us. A smack down is where you talk about your fruit or vegetable.
It actually went really well I said what needed to be said and sat down.
This happened to a lot of people they where very nervous but after they started talking they were fine. After everyone was done it was time to go home. I have learned a lot about some fruit and vegetables and would like to do some thing like this again. 
Down below is my Kiwano doc have a look and comment anything you learned.

Choir rehearsals

Choir rehearsals 

Mt Eden, Waikowhai Primary, River dale, Hillsborough , Hay park, North coat and Arahoe all came to Hay park to do a Choir rehearsal. If you where one of these schools you how it was, pretty fun right! We got to make new friends and connect with other people from different schools. We also got to sing some awesome songs. My two favourite songs were Kiri Te Kanawa Tarakihi and The Eye of the tiger. "Its the eye of the tiger... Oh we're not singing are we". The rehearsal went from 9:15 to 1:00 at the start there was a kapa haka group practising for their concert in two weeks. They did a very powerful Haka that was awesome and they also did a Waiata that defined impossible it was AWESOME. 

Over all it was a very fun way to spend a day of school.
