Cultural Day

“Yay” it’s cultural Day, I said to myself.

On Friday the 22nd of November Rm3, 6 and 7 went to mass in the morning to celebrate Diversity.

When mass finished we went back to our class and got a pencil because we had to go to room 7 so we could watch their presentations. We had a paper in front of us to mark how they did with their presentation.

First was United Kingdom from Room 7. Peru was first for Room 3 and the first one for room 6 is India. We had to mark each other out of five for different things. Room 7 didn’t know their words off by heart and Mrs Tui said read it off the paper and we couldn’t give them top marks for their presentations.

Room 3 presented really well and we got really good marks.  We were so proud of ourselves.

term 4 typing test

Touch Trainig

What I am looking forward is to learn more skills about Touch.

I am expecting to play Touch again.

We are doing this to know how to play Touch.

I think I will see a Coach, rugby ball and cones.

My Inspiration

My Inspiration is Laura Marano Why I picked her was that she acts little a normal girl and she doesn't want to show off when she is doing stuff. Also how she sings sounds like a bird that is humming very beautiful that we have a good night sleep. And also she is very talented with her singing and also she hangs around with her friends and she makes up a song and she singings it.

Kids For Kids Recount :)

On a lovely evening on the 13th of September some of the kids from Room 3 went to the Kids for Kids concert. We had a practice in the afternoon and every one had to come because it was important.   They need to give food and money to the poor people and the people that went to Kids for Kids concert had to pay money and the money goes to the poor people.

Annalise, Alecia, Tokilupe, Ezra, Manu, Richie, Stephanie, Rosalina and me all went to the concert and the teachers came too. The teachers that came were Mrs Williams, Mr Coakley, Miss G, Mr Gaffney and his wife and Mrs Pole. It was very fun but I was the last one there because my mum went to Glen Innes to go and pick up my brother from school and when she came back it was already night time and my legs was shaking because I was so nervous and scared. There was a lot of people there and it was packed. When we got there Daynah said to line up so we could go on stage. She called our row number 2 then we went to the stage and when I looked up it was a lot of people there.  When we all sat down I was hot because the light was on us. A man said give it up for Jackie Clark and Nathan King and then all the audience were clapping for them. They came out and then they said hello to everyone. After that the first song we sang and the director came out and his name was Chris Clark, he had big bushy hair. He  was telling us to stop when it Wasn’t our turn because it was Nathan’s turn. When it was my turn to do the ukulele I was very nervous, but very proud of myself to perform in front of all those people.

The Assumption

We celebrate the Assumption because it is Mary’s Heavenly birthday. Mary’s birthday is on the fifteenth of August. After Mary had died no one knew if she went to Heaven. Then Pope Pius had told the people that Mary’s body and soul had gone to Heaven.

The Rainbow Bird

Once upon a time in South America in the forest there was heaps of brown birds and they wanted to be colourful. They looked at the nature and they got jealous of the nature because it was colourful. They would go and pick lemons and rub it on their skin but the rain would come and take it off. 

One day rain came and after that a rainbow showed in the sky. The birds stared at the sky for a moment, then the rainbow went away and then it came up again it was dirty, the birds were shocked. A magical thing came up and the birds were wondering what that shiny thing was. and his name was Phoenix.

Then after that they fought the roaches and the rainbow became new again. They flew through the rainbow and became colourful and were very happy.

Forgiving work

The pool

The pool is long and warm. It smells like chlorine. It is 1 metre deep and 15 metre long. It is see-through. The pool is also blue on the outside of the pool and is sometimes cold, but nice. The pool is like a skateboard ramp on the walls. The Instructors were Jilian and Kevin. The pool can be sometimes dirty and the pool is as deep as a pond. It looks like the waves at the beach sometimes. I like swimming because I can learn how to swim. The pool is nice and kind of soft, the water helps me to float. When you stay in there for a long time you get warm then have to get out of the pool and get changed.
