Museum Trip

Have you ever been to Auckland museum?
Well last week we went to the museum
with all year 5s. We got split into 5 groups I was in Mrs west's group.

At first we met in the first entry. Then sat down and locked are bags in a cage. Because we are not aloud to eat or drink
in the museum.

My favorite part was when I went to the minecraft room. It really felt like I was in the game. I didn't get much time but it was worth it.

Josh Ambassador

INTRODUCTION Kia ora my name is Josh and I'm 10 years old. I would like be an ambassador for 2016. My skills for being an ambassador would be honest and confident. A few weeks ago I was a Manaiakalani film festival presenter, so I am use to speaking in front of lots of people and I’ve had heaps of practice.I attended all the practices, learned all of my lines and came to school everyday

 LEARN CREATE SHARE One thing that I loved learning this year would be about an Antarctic food chain. A food chain starts with a consumer and then a predator. For example a fish gets eaten by a penguin and a seal eats a penguin. So the seal receives all the energy. So it's like a basic diagram of Antarctic food chain. I’ve made a food chain, you can see it here.


 Another thing that I enjoyed was writing poems. We wrote haiku poems, limerick poems and diamante poems. Limerick and haiku poems have syllables nouns adjectives verbs and a lot of other things.

 Here are my poems Here is an animation that I worked on last term it's about all the emotions i'm feeling. and my Diamante poem Emotions Diamante poem Being an ambassador would mean alot to me because I like showing visitors around. I would do a great job representing our school.

WEATBIX OF TERROR!!!!

have you ever got weatbix with whipped cream all over your face. Well this morning we played a game and I call it weetbix of terror.

We used raw weetbix whipped cream and an apple. You need to put the whip cream on the weatbix and put it on any kind of plate. Then you have to have a buddy to control your arms and need six teams which have two in each. one person from each team has to eat the weetbix an apple and the other person had to control your arms.

When it was my turn I was the one who had to eat the food. I was nervous at first because I didn't even know if it was yum or not. But when Charles my buddy shoved the raw weetbix in my face the whipped cream was every where. It was disgusting to me I felt like I wanted to vomit it was very nasty. When I finished the weat bix I had the apple which had crumbs and whipped cream on it and it was all soggy. When I tasted it.

My favorite part was when I got revenge on Charles. I put whip cream on his face and I put the apple over his face.

I felt happy about the experience because it was funny it was bad but still funny.

So we rushed on are clothes and my mum came back from work said go wait in the car I will just go get the tickets for the movie we went to watch born to dance it was fun.




In the second week of holidays I went parakai springs with my uncle and my dad and cousins. most of the drive I just slept the whole way. One hour later we finally made it. The first thing we went on was the warm pool. After we got on the big slide and blocked it we went into a train. We all let go then we start to speed fast as then I fall of my board and went on to my cousin's board we kept on bumping into a lot of things. We got kicked off the slide so we went into the hot spa place and had hot chips and slushies and went home.





I felt happy about the experience. I enjoyed the slide the most and I hope we go Rainbows End next time.
