Whale Writing

Did you know that whales are the largest animals in the world but really a blue whale is the biggest whales of them all.

They have really long jaw bones and they have really streamlined body's.

They have a thick layer of fat that is could blubber so when they are in the water they stay warm and not freezing.

Whales have powerful flippers that pushes them though the water because if they didn't have flippers they would not be able to swim.

Rebekah Term Two Reflection

This term I have learnt to make a presentations and also searching for clues or answers in the book. Have you heard that in assembly there is a korero called finish off your work properly ?

Do you know what comprehension means ? It means that you have to understand the story that you are reading and also finish it off . I think I have to show my reading in different ways so I could improve it to my teacher and also my family !!!! Do you want to improve your reading to someone ???? Showing examples to my teacher would be kind of frustrating . I love to answer questions because I like to turn them into writing so I could make it wonderful !!!!

I didn't like the way I done my reading because my report said , “I was below” , and I felt very sad and angry !!!! Finding awesomer in the books is very hard sometimes and it is not good with me. Also my reading task that I do it is not done properly and also it doesn't go well with myself . I don’t like to rush because it make my work difficult !!!!

I have to make my reading improve next year so I could have a great report !!!!

PES Gallery of Fine Arts

When my class room 14 went in to the Art Gallery, we were so thrilled and ecstatic! Did you know that we were so lost in the art gallery because it look so cool ?

My friends saw some beautiful and pretty artwork and amazing paintings !!!

I liked how room 10  did some shiny Patterns because it looked great, good, and almost better then my artwork ! I hope that they are doing great things in their classroom.

Next year I hope that Pt. England will have Art Alive again so I could strive to succeed in my paintings and also drawings!

Clay Workshop

In the morning on Wednesday it was so cool because half of team 4 was going to youthtown on the noisy bus !!!

We were waiting for instructions from Sue and then room 14 went into the clay room so Sue could roll out some squishy and gooey clay . Did you know that Sue showed us some beautiful melted glass and also some examples of finished products . 


We cut the edges with a bamboo stick and there is some more things like rolling the extra pieces into long pieces called coils . We had to do careful designing and rolling out coils using our palms then fingers . Did you know that we had to stick the edges with slip? My friend Alarzae was doing team work with cowan !!!




The last thing that we did was just to stamp our names on to our clay projected .

P.E.P.A. Show Case

Did you go and watch this show called P.E.P.A last night ???? Because I was in it and they were many things that I could sign up like project Rap, Models inc, Hip Hop,Break Dance,Show choir but I have already went into one dance and that was a culture dance , it was so amazing when I practise it !!!! The dance that me and my friends did were Samoa, Fiji, Cook Islands, and also moar . My tutor Timmy that was the one who trote me that fantastic dance got her some beautiful flowers from our cool principal Mr.Burt .

My Art Reflection Two

Art Reflection Two



1. How do you feel about the work you did? Why? I feel a little happy and a little sad because my colours were ok but when I painted I just made it worse and difficult !!!!

2. What do you feel that you did well? Why? Did you know that I just only did the colours alright and that's about it because I don’t think that I painted well ???

3. What do you feel you did not so well? Why? When I just painted because my first painting was just a drafted and I did really good on that but here came the nervous one it was the real one that me and my friends were supossed to do and then we did it but I didn’t make my work good !!!!!!!


4. What would you do differently next time? Why? Did you know that also I need to not keep on putting lots of water on my paper with the paint ?????

Andy Warhol Story

Did you know that Andy Warhol was shot three times by this woman called Valerie Solanas?  Andy Warhol is the man who created great pictures of Marilyn Monroe and Mohammed Ali. Andy Warhol is a very good artist and gentleman, he should be very proud of himself!

Warhol did popular art and he created popular people as pictures. I think that he was enjoying , creating  Marilyn Monroe and Mohammed Ail !!!!!!! I wish he was still alive because he could come to Pt. England School and tell us about his life .

It looks like he has nice bright colours and simple strong shapes in his paintings. Andy Warhol had bold outlines to make his paintings stand out and he was trying to get people to love his work. Guess what happened to his dream? His dream came true and he was enjoying it. He must have been happy for himself .

I love Andy Warhol because he draws cool pictures and he is fantastic . My favourite piece is the picture of  Marilyn Monroe because the colours that he uses are very cool and awesome.

This is about my mark and I really want all of you to like it !
 I got 20/16 .

My Favourite things

My Favourite Things

No Camp for Me!

Did you know that the year five and six had camp? I did not go to camp because I had chicken pox and that was not fun! I was all ready for camp, but then I got sick!  I missed out on all the fun and great activities. But it is OKAY!

I was very sad when camp started but it was alright staying at home. I do not like chicken pox ! If you had chicken pox when you were starting camp you will be very sad and disappointed too!

I did not get to sleep in a tent with my friends, but I think it was okay because they said that they were shivering and cold . I don't know if they like to sleep in a tent by themself because if they were sleeping by themself they would be very scared and afraid of the dark.

Do you like to sleep in a tent by yourself when you are having school camp? I don't think so. I would be so scared that I would get out of my tent and go to my friends tent and ask her if she can come and sleep with me. I did not want to get chicken pox when camp was starting but I had no choice. 

I wish that I could sleep in a tent when I am a year six. I really want to go to camp next year. I would be so excited and I would be very happy!

Paragraph Burger

A paragraph burger makes your writing so good. Did you know Room 14 is talking about paragraphs?

We like writing cool stuff and we hope that you can figure out what paragraph burgers are. Now I know what paragraph burgers are! First you need to have an introduction, and then you need to have three sentences and a conclusion. The most important thing you need is to write about one main idea. Did you know that you are good at writing too? I like to write paragraphs, I really enjoy it !
