Art Alive

Art Alive is the Motto for Term 2 this year. Just 48 hours ago, the year 7 & 8s has been involved in a Art rotation. That means different rooms goes to different classes to study different Artist. The artisan that I mostly admired was Henri Matisse... but we will talk about him mmmaybe in this next paragraph.

Matisse was a French artist (painter), he is known for his use of bright colours and the pacific patterns.

Here is the only painting that I have accomplished during the past few days. It was long but it took me an effort to make this happen. I am proud of this piece of art.


Well this is it have a nice day.

Last Week Of Term 1 2012

Wow! wasn’t term 1 just brilliant. What’s so brilliant about this term is that we have been involved in fun activities like camp & the school picnic.

Being in room 18 has helped me improve my maths, reading, and writing with Mr Barks help. Ever since Mr Barks moved me away from Nezinli, (work buddy) I had more time to finish off my assignments and had a better opportunity to stay focused.

During the past few weeks I have been improving my maths skills and catching up to my writing level. I have learned to use statistics and be cybersmart in the right time, at the right place, and the right attitude. At room 18 I am trying to finish my mihimihi.

Honestly I just can’t wait for Term 2, I hope it will be twice as fun as last term.

Funeral Of The Tongan King

This writing is put in my own words and I thought I could share this with you. The story you are about to read is from the New Zealand Herald.

It has been confirmed that Georg Tupou the 5th (King of Tonga) has died in the hospital of Hong Kong. He suffered from a kidney removal in United States last year, and I think he had cancer during the operation. It has been told that the funeral is going to be shorter than usual.

The funeral will be held Today at the Capital Nuku’alofa. I’m sure that my Aunties and Uncles in Tonga will be at the funeral. Maori Affairs Minister Pita Sharples, Labour leader David Shearer and many more will also be on the first flight to visit the deceased ruler.

On August the 1st the Kingdom of Tonga will crown Tupou’s brother the new King. (They both have the same name, but he will be called George Tupou the 5th.)

It is time to say our final farewell to the king, all I can say is that he will be dearly missed and there will be a piece of him in the heart of Tonga. This is a very blue day for tonga. The coffin was carried by 150 pallbearers and is burried in lavish state funeral

Farewell.

here are some of the pictures from the funeral.

School Picnic

 In the not so sunny day, was the day for the Point England picnic. As our class starts to stroll along the freshly cut grass, I begin to see the golden sand in the Point England Reserve Beach.

We sat down and waited for Mr Brut's Kare Kia, we say Amen and put our bags next to benches. Ahhh the nice cold breeze of the wind whistling in my ears and the sound of sunscreen that just slopped into my hands.

The sun was shinning bright like never before. I sat down and watched some teachers set up games, at the corner of my eye I saw kids that made a mud pool. By the time it was lunch time I was starving so I took out my sandwich and just demolished It.

After playing touch with my friends, I went to go and see students and teachers doing
some robotic dances and singing karaoke. As I was dehydrated, me and my friends were seeking for shade under the trees and just hang out there. When the siren for team 5 went on I went and just dip ed myself in the sea. That was really refreshing and that would've made my day.

Tennis

3/11/11
Tennis Tournament

It was a wet morning on Thursday,time to play tennis again, but this time we had a tournament.Our instructor (Marcelle), WARNED us about the tennis nets legs. We had some practise before we started the tournament, it was simple the loosing team goes down and wining team goes up. We were split in to four teams. Marcelle blew the whistle and the game was off! Tamati served the ball across the net and the opponent hit it back all of a sudden Tamati quickly returns the ball with a glorious spike back to him, the opponent missed the shot and one point goes to the Tamati's team. They have had a victory but it was not over. Drips of wet raindrops were soaking in my hair, so we stopped the time and waited. As the time goes by, we went back to the courts and continued our tournament. The fun enjoyment of tennis was victorious, time was running out, the score is 6 all the Jordan takes the advantage and ace our last winning goal.
Thanks To Cruz and Jordan for editing my work.

My Outta This World Dream Holiday

My Dream Outta Of This World

Brring Brring....... ‘ screamed the alarm.
I tried to ignore it. I wanted
to stay home in my outta this world dream. My
dream holiday.

It was just another day at home but this time it was different. My family has been adopted by ALIENS. I quickly hit the gravity button which makes me float. I looked out the window and there they were, it had only one eye, it was green and had slimy  tentacles and, and...........
looked like this.

The aliens held my mum hostage while they were heading to Uranus to look for a BOMB, which fell off, when my mum and her space crew was attacking the aliens. My mum wanted to experiment on them. I took a mini rocket and flew silently behind them, as we wonder around the eight planets we have found Uranus.
     
According to space time, it has been 7 years so I only have 1 Month to stop the Aliens from invading Earth. My friend and I (Obie K Nobe One) was helping me find my mum but it was too late. As the Bomb was activated, it was a beeping rapidly but it was just the alarm waking me up.

Thanks to Sione and TomJoe for taking the time to check my work.

The Year Without Summer

In room 19 we had to read, write and learn about a book. We each got a book to study,we had to study, we had to summarise the reading and then put it together in a slide show. It is here on my blog so that team four can use it for reading task.

Silly Sports

SILLY SPORTS

I was challenged as a simple sponge can fill a bucket with that much water. My team mates were all lined up like a foot ball squad.
Quick, Quick, don't squeeze it, dose were the only words I heard, when I passed the sponge through my legs. The rotation of passing the sponge was going side, under, side, under, that was the strategy of this game, Jordan slipped and we all laughed with joy....... Just before the siren went on.

It's time for some action.
Swinging and pulling and stretching that rubber catapult, I thought that rubber thing was being teared to pieces..... The ball went straight to the ground, there was no where the ball can go inside that hoop. None of the room 19 girls or boys got it in. The aim of the game is to swing a ball inside a hoop..... err ruuu err ruuu.On that siren goes again.

Time for a "spooning" challenge with Mr. Harris.
My leg was tied to a partner like a prisoner, with a ball on top of a spoon, on my hand. GO! yelled Mr. Harris me and Samson were cooperating saying in, out, in, in our heads trying not to get out of focus or else the ball will fall down. It was a challenge for me because the wind was blowing my hair on my face.

Special Thanks to Jordan, And Cruz For Checking My Work.

Where The Heck Is Mt Eden?

Different Auckland town centres have adopted Rugby teams from countries that qualified for the World Cup.

I found out information about :

The location in Auckland;

Something special about this place;

A 'potted' history of the place;

If it has it's own symbol of some sort.

(If we couldn't find a symbol we chose a picture that told more about the place).

Mt Eden is an inner suburb of Auckland city, situated five kilometres south of the city centre.
The mountain is the highest natural point in the whole of Auckland.
n pre-European times Mount Eden was utilised as a fortified hill pa by various Māori tribes.
In 1868 local people met to form a local governing body; this was the Mt Eden Highway Board. The Mt Eden Borough Council came into being in 1906. The Council Office buildings in Valley Road were built in 1911. In 1989 Mt Eden Borough was amalgamated with Auckland City.

Cross Country

I heard the two bricks collide together ........BANG! The fast boys were sprinting through muddy puddles and zoomed off towards the finish. I was thinking that was too fast and I would catch them....... eventually. By the time I reached Mr Harris checkpoint, ( My Teacher ) I was Pumped.

The running course for our cross country was 3 kilometers and so far I probably ran about 1 kilometer. I jog as I felt exhausted just trying to cross that finish line. Around the foot path, through the muddy grass, huffing and puffing along I go. There I am half way in the gate. This three kilometer race was like putting my heart on a treadmill...

The moment I first crossed the finish line I couldn't even breath. Friends were cheering and laughing. At least I made the first 20 to finish .

Keep Your Eye On The Ball

We are using the nations of the 2011 Rugby World Cup as our inquiry path.

For this unit we are in one of four teams:

Brumbies, Force, Rebels, Stormers.

My team is Brumbies

There will be a number of tasks for us to navigate to achieve our goal of an excellent result in this unit. There are a mixture of individual and team tasks to be completed. The main task that will show our learning in this unit will be a Hyperstudio presentation about one of the countries in the World Cup competition.
