New Zealand/ Auckland Team

The New Zealand rugby team had a rough play against Australia lately, it always makes me wonder what a great team they are? I didn't watch the game because I wasn't there, I keep missing out in all of the fun. Me and my friends did not know who won and we never did, WHAT!, did I say never did, well at least we know that NEW ZEALAND WON!!!!! YEAH!!!!!! GO THE ALL BLACKS!!!!!!!!
HI!!!!!!!!!!!

Navigation

This Picture here is Nicholas Young. He was a sailor on Captain Cooks Ship for a look out voyage. Nicholas Young was a surgeons boy and eleven years old when he left his family! On Captain Cooks ship he is a navigator.

Navigating is something you could use to set sail on sea. You must make sure, that you are going the right direction.

Polynesian People

Polynesian people touched down on Aotearoa 1000 years ago. Individual people came by canoe, which Maori people used well sailing on the verge of death. Some of the boats had single hulls, without riggers or double hulls. There was plunks slashed together, which were 15 to 25 meters long.

Trained navigators steered under a direct trail of stars by night and sea swells by day. Not many of them managed to cross the dangerous seas of Aotearoa.

Mighty Mariners is what we are studying back at Point England school. As I step foot on the school grounds, we have to line up at the hall. It is also the first day of term three, Mr. Burt was announcing what the school topic is, then team 4 was up to show off about our school topic, Mighty Mariners.

One Tree Hill

One Tree Hill was made by volcanic lava, that was hitting the hot spot. It was making a cone, witch will allow it to cool down and become a erupting volcano .

Lava has created a volcanic eruption, called One Tree Hill, a.k.a. Maungakiekie. It was erupting to 20,000 or 30,000,years, it is also a famous Auckland landmark.

The spectacular view at the top tells you, the dead men at war worked hard. Also you can look at some of the volcanoes in the area of New Zealand.

As you were climbing to the top of the hill, you can look down and see the three craters, that shows you how the side is blown up. The scoria rocks were great for ancient use, and the mouth of the lava is shaped like an horse shoe. Whats more the person who made volcanoes was a man called volcan, and now his name is still remembered for all the maori ancestors.

Being at the Fifa World Cup would be amazing , it is like the finals. When our team had the ball the crowd went wild with rage, in a good way though. Cars went racing to the stadium.

People were not happy to miss out. A terrible tragedy had happened all the tickets were sold out. It was as if it was the end of the world. Sadly people went back home.

New Zealand and Italy face to face, my future is in their hands. One match will change millions of peoples lives, see history be made, that's what I say.

Then Boom! Italy has the ball he's going, he's going.........

MISS, New Zealand has it. Dodging player by player, seems to becoming a good start.

Finely, at last, he's running, he's running ............

GOAL!! New Zealand cheering loud and proud. But it is not over there is only a couple of minutes left Italy at last has the ball, he seems to be focused on it then ...........

GOAL! I don't know how he doe's it, what a great save for Italy.

Volcano Eruption

Inside planet earth is hot liquid rock with piousness gasses. magma inside the vent is expanding, witch means it is not going to burst out hard.

Mount Vesuvius was erupting! A foundation of fire shot upwards and huge black cloud rose up into the sky. The ground shook with the force of the explosion. People staggered, clinging to one another.
