Star-Dome Trip

Earlier this week we went to Star-dome for a field trip. While we were there we decided to go for a walk up One Tree Hill.

We walked down steep craters and up long walls of grass. With difficulty I tried to keep up with the class. I saw heaps of students struggling with their heavy bags on their backs. When I was at the edge of the crater, it was slippery and people went tumbling and rolling down.

I felt absolutely happy when I got down to the rocky crater.

Yum Ice-Cream Comets

Would you want to know what Room 15 made on Tuesday? Well room 15 made comets out of icy cold ice-cream. When I heard that we were going to make comets out of ice-cream I said " no thanks I don't want any ". I saw a 5 liter ice-cream and the flavor was chocolate.

I also saw two packets of cornet cones and a big packet of biscuits. Mr Marks grabbed all of the biscuits out of the packet, put them in a bag, with a powerful impact Mr marks smashed, crushed and bashed it on the table. Then Hope had a turn but she crushed it with the rolling-pin.

Our comets were ready to be made. Mr Marks scooped the ice-cream and we had to dunk it into the crushed up biscuits. He said to me " come and have some ice-cream ", so I went and got some. I thought it was disgusting but when I tasted it it tasted delicious.

Hungrily I slurped up my ice-cream. As I was eating it, it slowly melted through my fingers. When I walked past I looked down at the dried floor and there was heaps of crumbs from the biscuits. I went to the table and there were people standing around it because they were picking at the smashed, crushed and bashed biscuits.

Finally when every body finished their ice-cream comets we got to talk about them. The comets tasted very nice. Some people were scavenging for more.

What Wakes You Up In The Morning

When we go to sleep we sleep deeply, and then after a few hours we sleep lightly. If we sleep lightly we will wake up easily. Our brains need to rest for the next day, so we don't get tired or confused during class.

So if you want to sleep in wear something over your eyes or pull the curtains. It may help to put cotton-wool or earplugs in your ears.

The Holidays

Would you want to know what I am looking forward to be doing in the holidays? In the holidays I am going to stay up as late as I can, and draw heaps of designs on a piece of paper. I would also want to jump in my pool and stay in the pool until night time.

I like the holidays because you can do what ever you want to do but, you still have to help with the dishes and the house-work. I also like the holidays because it is days full of fun and cool things. In the holidays I would like to go somewhere cool like the movies, rainbows-end, valentines or even on a fiery to Devon-port.

I am looking forward to be getting more games for our computer. The game that we have got is called 101 Block Buster Games. This game has 101 games on it and my best one is call Little Bombers Returns.

Aussie Rules

Have you ever played a game similar to rugby? This is a game full of fun. We have been learning the skills required to play Aussie Rules.

An essential piece of equipment is a Kiwi kick ball. Laces are stitched to the ball, there were different colors on the ball.

It was unpredictable when I had to kick the ball to Doris. Megan said that we have to kick the Kiwi kick ball and try to hit either, her or Mr Marks. It was awkward. Doris drop punted the ball and unexpectedly it went way over to the right side.

So if you are able to play Aussie Rules, make sure you have the right equipment. You will notice that your skills will soon be really good.

My Brilliant RWC Logo

I like my 2011 logo because it it represents fastness and, it also represents The All Blacks. First I got my Net-book out and searched on Internet for some ideas. I went to Maori patterns and I saw a very fascinating Pattern.

I grabbed my paper and started drawing it, it was a bit hard but I kept on drawing. The reason why I had chosen that pattern was because I think it was worth drawing it. When I had finished drawing that pattern I had to look for a RWC logo, so I searched it up on Internet and I found one that was magnificent.

So I started to draw it and it turned out perfect. When I had finished that I had to go over the out-line with Indian ink.

I had to use the back of the paint-brush so that the Indian ink wont get all over the place. Finally I finished going over my stunning pattern with Indian ink, I was so proud of my self. Just then I got to paint my pattern with beautiful colors.

The beautiful colors that I painted on stunning pattern were Green, Blue, Yellow and Red. I done the boarder dark Red. When I look at my pattern now it looks so brilliant.

What I like about my pattern is that it is strong and powerful.

Cross Country

Do you know what happened on Wednesday? Well rooms One-seventeen had cross country. First we lined up and we walked down to the beach, because that is where we were going to start. The teachers got us to sit down on the wet and cold grass.year

The nine year old girls had to go first. Mr Burt took us to the starting line, we were about to run but Mr Burt changed the time table. Everyone went first but the nine year old girls had to wait.

Finally we got to run, I was nervous because there were courages runners. I heard Mr Burt say “take your marks, get set, GO!”. I ran slow at the start because, I knew I would get really tired.

When I got to the bridge I was huffing and puffing. The track was dangerous because it was slippery and there were heaps of sticks. I got to another bridge and I was almost at the finish line.

I ran as fast as I could to get to the finish line, while I was running my sister was taking photos of all the other children. Running with all my heart I past the two posts which marked the finish.
