THINGS WE DO AT PRIZE GIVING

At our prize givings we sing a song that we have practiced but the words in the song would  be different and of course prizes get given out parents and family can also come and see the prize giving.

The art we were focusing on was by colleen mccain he did different art to other artist and he put text in most of his art is abstract we did our own pieces of art . We had to pick 3 words to base it on I picked 
Moana , sky and moody I think my favourite part about my painting was the sea because I made it look like there was waves.

The things we used to make it was pencil , paint , pastels and charcoal stuff. Last year we went there and we did art for matariki we did taniwhas and we used different equipments like this time

If you go to te uru art gallery check out the different arts there and maybe do some art to there are lots of things to do there and it is a very cool environment to learn art in .

The impact of this book catching falling stars

LI: I have finished my book and this is my one of my follow ups for it

Catching falling stars
I think if i would change this book it would probably be to add 2 pictures
and make it a bit more hooking at the end there was a great hooks. I would say
it could be a classic it has a good theme of what it is being wrote about and it is quiet
a good book but on the other hand I think is could have some more lightness if you
know what I mean it has meaning and thought and over all its good but some
people like it and some people do not but I think that it hooks you in and it really hooks
you in at the end.

cross country today

cross country today

today the 8th April was cross country and I did not really enjoy it I came 6th and I am not really proud of myself I also felt like I was going to faint and I almost did . Because I am 10 I did 3 laps of the school and my group was 10 & 11 girls and we were second to lasts to run / race . Everyone had to do it and my class got to watch the little kids because miss hamlin my teacher wanted to see here daughter and I knew alot of little kid s well not alot but some. But at the end of the day everyone did it and gave it a go and tried their best and that is what counts people that got in the zonals did good but that does not matter if you did or didn't because people have their own reasons and stories and that is all up to them everyone did their best and that the main idea of cross country.

sea cleaners

sea cleaners clean up 

On thursday some of the sea cleaners came in and we cleaned up the whole school . But the senior school was doing we all split out and we picked up some strange thing that we did not think we would find we found lots and lots and lots of rubbish and there still is more but we made it better . We were thinking of ways to stop it from happening and I thought that some people could have litterless lunch boxes it was for the morning block but it was a good way to bring everyone together lots of people enjoyed well I did . Most people had blue gloves because lots of people did not bring their own then at the end the school came to look at the rubbish that we found and see what we did here is a picture of the stuff we found on thursday THE RUBBISH AT THE SCHOOL.

Apples



apples this year

In term 2 we are having some apples and you can had them in to the pb4l shop and you can get something but it does matter if you only have 1 or 3 apple s because you will not get the best thing there you get them for showing the Rs and people will give them out to you I do not know how but someone will and remember that it does start at term 3 and I think that there will be some good prices and you get to go to the shop and pick it out yourself. You could get more than one of course if you are showing the 5 Rs .

swimming lesson

LI: how to swim through waves and float  and not to toach the ground

SWIMMING SAFE



last week we were learning about water safety with someone 
from swimming safe and her name was kate she was teaching some stuff to us we were making waves,sculling and floating on our backs 
we could not touch the ground for the sculling and floating and when we were making the waves we had to swim through them 2 by 2
and at the end we got to have a free time and we played a lot
but then I got out of the pool because I had to much water and we were in the pool for a long time
