Working as a team

I loved the movie because Julianne, Tyron, Pupuke, Katrina and I made a cake! Mrs Buchanan was recording us. When we started we put the cake on the table and Pupuke put the icing on the sides to stick the Kit Kat on. After that we stuck the Kit Kat on and Katrina and I put the M&Ms on top. Then Julianne,Tyron and Pupuke helped us. When we were done we finished recording.  I felt great because we got to make a cake! When it was lunch time, Julianne cut the cake and we got 1 piece of cake and 1 Kit Kat each.

We worked well together to make our movie. I used Panzoid to make the introduction about teamwork. Katrina used button base to make the beat for the background.

And That's What We Did For Our Movie! It was fun!

My Cherry Blossom Tree!

When we did art we had to make a blossom tree so we had to paint a piece of paper with yellow, blue and green to make the sky, sun and the grass. After that we had to grab a piece of paper and use a straw to blow the black paint on our paper. When we were done we took our own paper with our painting on it and did the same. When we finished we had to use some pink paint, red paint, purple paint and white paint to dab our finger in and put it on our piece of paper. It looked like the pink flowers on the tree. When we were finished we had to take a photo of our cherry blossom tree.

Going To The Film Festival

On Wednesday we went to the Manaiakalani film festival in Sylvia Park. It was cool when we went in the bus because I got to sit in the back.  When we got there we went inside and waited for other schools to go out because they finished watching the movies before us.

When there were no more people coming out of the movies we went inside and we sat down on a chair and waited for the movies to start. It was cool because our video was second starting and it was funny but some people didn’t laugh but at the end they did.

When it was time to go we went outside and went in the bus to go back to school. My favourite movie was ours!

When we were at the edible garden we saw some blossoms and we saw strawberries too. After that we went to the next garden. It was cool because we saw lots of flowers and blossom trees and magnolias. They were magnificent and beautiful.

After walking we saw some statues. There was a shovel statue and it looked like a pine cone. After that we went and look at more flowers and plants in Spring Blossom Valley. After that it was time to go.

In The Holidays!

In the holidays I went to my cousin's house because my aunt went to school and my nana has work.

When I was at my cousin's house we played games and the game was call of duty black ops two and minecraft pocket edition. We were playing on a ps3. It was fun plus we got to talk to people on the game using a mic.

When I had to go I wanted to go pools so me and my auntie went to the pools and my nana stayed at my cousin's house because she can't swim.

When we were in the pools my auntie paid the register and I went straight to the changing room. After I changed we went inside and I jumped in and just started floating on my back and just swimming around. When we were finish I went to go change.

After I was changed I went to get me a cookie from the vending machine then we went to pick up my nana from my cousin’s house. And that's my school holiday!

On Friday i went on the bus to the zoo with my class room 10,room 9,room 7 and room 6. When we got to the zoo we waited for a little bit because Mrs buchanan had to go pay it. When Mrs Buchanan came back we went straight in and went to the center to go talk with the zookeepers and he told us the basic rules. After they told us the rules and stuff they put us in groups and in my group was Robati,Saluselo,Henry and me. When we got in our groups we went to go see some animals but first my team went to the tiger area and went and look at the tigers they were cool and awesome but mostly scary because if someone was in it the would get eat and the tiger will devour the human. After we looked at the tigers we went to go see the otters. When we got there the otters were so cute we wish that we could pet them because they're small and cute but we can't pet them because they might bite us because it has sharp teeth. After that we had to go have our morning tea and we had to go eat at the band rotunda. After we had morning tea we went to go see the crocodiles. When we got to the crocodiles they were so cool. They had big jaws and it was under water and just staying in there. After we visit the crocodiles we went to go  look at other animals but while we were walking we saw two ducks quacking loud at us and me Robati and Saluselo and Mr Myer and Henry were laugh so hard because it was so funny. After that we went to go see the giraffes,elephants,rhinos,zebras and ostriches they were cool and the elephants were funny because when we went go eat next to the elephants one of them took a dump right in front of us and we were laughing hard out because it was funny. After lunch we saw some flamingos and a hippo. After that we went back on the bus to school and that was our trip to the zoo!

JAE COACHING SNAG GOLF!

On Thursday we played snag golf with this man named Jae. If you don't know what snag golf is it is  similar to regular golf but snag golf is when you can use your hands or your golf club. When we played we had to hit these targets with the ball and when we throw the ball it sticks on the target. When we started hitting the target it changed. When we started playing Mr Jae gave people golf clubs. Robati and I had to hit the ball with the golf club and we tried to hit the target and score a snag for my team. The rest of the team had thought that it was hard but some boys said it was easy peasy. Then we had to roll the ball in the hula hoop.

And that's my day playing snag golf!

How big is Steven Adams' hand?
