Our Pizza

This year for the extension group's breakup for the yaer we are making pizzas. This term Pt.England school are learning about Little Critters (Bugs) so we have to make it like a little critter. Here is my groups pizza and we will show you the real one later.

Pike River Mine Service

The Memorial Service at Omoto race course for the Pike river Miners was on tv at 2:00 clock in the afternoon on Thursday the 2nd of December 2010 I watched it. It is so sad that they haven't found the body's of the Miners, I think that the families just want to go down and get their loved ones.

Even though the mine had a second explosion I still hoped that they would still be alive but when it had a third explosion my hope slowly drifted away.The Mayor of Greymouth is such a good man he never gives up he just works,works and works.When they have their next election he should be voted Mayor if he wants to run again. I hope that all the families can be happy and that they won't be sad.

Rewind

This a movie inspired by the school St Pius. This is a quick 30 second movie so it shouldn't take a lot of your time. Here is a link room6 Rewind St Pius to check out there rewind movie it's awesome. Our task was so much easier then theirs because theirs lasted a 3 minutes this one only takes 30 seconds. Plus it was only one class doing this movie and so when one student was in the shot that would have to run somewhere else to be in another shot which would of been very hard. Hope you like this movie and please leave a comment.

Brent Newdick

This is my extension project it's about a Athlete called Brent Newdick. We had to compare our Athlete with a bug. He won SILVER medal in the Commonwealth games which is very good I hope he can go to the Olympics in 2012 and bring home a gold for New Zealand.

Cross Country Narrative

“10 year old boys’’ yells Mr Burt . My five friends Wally Lewis, Stacey Jones, Brent Tate, Kevin Locke, Jarryd Hayne and I, with all the other ten year old boys, stand on the starting line. Bang Mr Burt shoots his gun into the air, we are all off . I have come second behind my friend Kevin Locke for the last three years but today is a day for change .

I have a dream, I have a path and I have a plan. I dream that I would come 1st in the Cross Country(Martin Luther King Jr’s speech). Kevin and I were neck and neck at the start but as we got to the fence he was winning. Suddenly he put on a bit of gas and he made the margin from me and him bigger.

As we got onto one the fields at the Pt England Reserve I caught up to him and he said to me “Waata you’ve gone faster maybe you can even beat me” I replied back to him “Today’s a time for change”. Unsurprisingly he took of and I shouted “ I knew you would take off ’’ .


Later on we both got to the fence that was close to the reserve we sprinted off going past the playground I was in front of him when he tripped suddenly I stopped picking him up, He said to me “why didn’t you win the race” I said I’m not a person like that I look out for my friends”. Then my other friend Jarryd Hayne came past us. He won the Cross Country me and Kevin came second equal.

Extension Project

Dental Clinic Farewell

In preparation for the dental clinic being demolished a builder used a crowbar to prise off the Weatherboards. As he pulled them off they discovered a huge wasp’s nest. When we finished CRE we got to take a look at the wasp’s nest it was huge. They needed the weatherboards off so that the building was weakened so it would be easy to bust down.

With the Weatherboards taken out the building was weakened so they could finally start to demolish it. The jaws of the digger get ready to demolish the building like a lion getting ready to eat its prey. We say our final farewell’s and the dental clinic starts to be crushed .

The digger starts crushing the dental clinic, it didn’t stand a chance against the digger. Slowly it came down finally the Dental Clinic was crushed . With the Clinic crushed only a pile of rubble is left.

Goku,Gohan and Goten vs Broly

“I’ve had enough ’’ shouts Gohan KAMEHAMEHAMEHAAAAA!!!!!!!!!! Gohan Super Saiyan 1 unleashes his powerful blast to end Broly’s life but it was not enough, so Goten Super Saiyan 1 his little Brother. Stands side by side with his big brother and unleashes a KAMEHAMEHAMEHAAAAA!!!!!!!!!! Too but it still was not enough.

Goten knows it was not enough and wishes in his mind that Goku his dad was there but Goku was dead. Their was just one thing that could save them the seven Dragon balls and because Goten wished Goku was alive, he came to help them.

Goku exclaims to his two sons “that they can defeat Broly’. KAMEHAMEHAMEHAAAAA!!!!!!!!!! they all shout out loudly. Broly screams Kakarote!!!!!!!!(Goku) and smashes into little pieces.Then a beam sends Broly into space for another three years. Until then Goku has to train or he will get demolished.

Christchurch Earthquake

“ There has been an Earthquake in Christchurch,’’ my dad Yelled to my mum. On the TV we saw that rubble was all over the roads and on cars . It started at 4:30 on Saturday morning many people were still asleep , they were woken up by the shaking or smashed windows .

The damage was catastrophic. Cars were crushed by falling rubble, buildings were split into two and a wall was even completely ripped off a restaurant . There were also buckled rails and unstable buildings, which

The roads were showered with shattered glass . Sewage pipes blew their tops, because of this the roads were flooded and tap water was unsafe to drink, when you want a drink you have to boil your water for 3 minutes just in case you get a very bad sickness (don’t know what its called).

I feel very sorry for the people in Christchurch . I hope all is going well in Christchurch with the claena up. I hope the aftershocks stop so more historic buildings do not collapse because that will be very sad and a great loss to everyone .

Cross Country

“ Whoo its freezing “ I say to myself . I am feeling a whole lot of Adrenaline in my body,my legs are shivering but I am ready for Cross Country . Bang Mr Burt makes the clappers clap . We are off I jog trying not to stop over, I look to see who’s coming first it was Aidan .

My legs are shaking but I tell myself “don’t stop” but i slow down and walk . Half way their I catch up with my two friends Crusader and Kingston, Kingston asks us if we should sprint when we get to the playground but Crusader said why not at the fence .

Close to the fence I sprint off using all my energy I beat my friends for the second year straight . I’m really happy that Cross country is finished .

Volcano group movie

This is our group movie hope you like it .

Israel Folau

Israel Folau is a talented player that is 21 years of age. He use to play for the cheating team as everyone knows Melbourne Storm but moved to my former best team the Brisbane Broncos but plays for the almighty Queensland. His height is unbelievable for his age. His strength and shear force would be enough to stop a raging bull from running at him. He is centre which has a jar full of speed and agility. He is one of my favourite players because he always finds a way to get over the try line even if he has to step,swerve and bump his way.

Moving from the Melbourne Storm was a good idea because if he stayed with them for a little bit longer he would not have been able to compete for the title for a year. Which would of stunk badly. He is one of the centres that I admire. He is mighty and he is ISRAEL FOLAU!!!!!

Group Movie

As part of our Immersion Week we got into groups and had to research a particular mariner Ms Squires gave us. Our groups had to create animations and a movie to show the rest of the class what we had found out about them.

Christopher Columbus by Waata, Crusader, Gabriel and Kingston.

Perspectives

On Wednesday last week our teacher told us to draw her from diffrent perspectives, I had to draw her from the back which was very hard . At the end of it she asked why do we think you to draw her from diffrent perspectives, Someone said because the map drawers had to draw Countrys from diffrent perspectives .

If I had to draw a country on a map while on a ship it would be very hard because the ship would be rocking and I would make lots of mistakes . I wonder how they drew the Countrys or Continents like Asia having to sail around Asia WHAT A MISSION and getting it picture perfect it must of been hard .

John Cena

The Champ is here, the champ is here. John Cena is one of the most famous wrestlers in the WWE (world wrestling entertainment.) His Finisher move was the FU but now it changed to the attitude Adjustment and his other finisher is the STFU. He has won multiple championships like the title he designed the new WWE championship, World Heavyweight Championship, United States Championship and the Tag Team Champion with Shawn Michael's. When he came to the WWE he was a baddy because he was new and the crowd hates new people. But now the crowd cheers, cheers and cheers. He has overcame the biggest of challenges like the Punjabi Playboy Great Khali ( no where near a Playboy ) lifting the Punjabi Playboy who is over 7 Feet tall , and doing a Attitude Adjustment on him . and locking in the STFU on the Big Show . The Champ is here,The Champ is here,The Champ is here, thats all I got to say .

My Part of my group Movie

This is my part of the group movie once ours is finished our upload all of the parts to the Movie . My part is the ship part it has got a voiceover , if you have no idea what I am talking Christopher Colubus is one of the worlds greatest mariners . He did three major voyages this one took 35 days .

My Five Fact's Project

This is my Facts .

In the week the Extension Group had a task to pick a book out off a box . I got a book called PIRATES ! The Raiders Of The High Sea by Christopher Maynard, I was very excited about this book . As I fliped through the pages I saw 5 interesting Facts . Here they are hope you like it .

WWE

Every Monday Night,or Friday night WWE goes live on air. WWE (world wrestling entertainment) is a wrestling show that millions of fans (like me) tune into watch WWE shows NXT, ECW, RAW and Smackdown. Vincent Kennedy McMahon runs the WWE and once he was a superstar and a champion but it was the ECW (extreme champions wrestling) when he beat a superstar called Bobby Lashley because he had a help from his son Shane McMahon and for another superstar Umaga. John Cena is one of the strongest in WWE. There is many paper-views but four main ones. First Survivor Series then the biggest party of the summer, Summerslam. A few months later it is the Royal Rumble and its every man on himself. The last one is the grand daddy of them all Wrestlmania. Thats all the WWE and you should watch it yourself. Its got Money in the Bank Championshp matches and more COMPLETLY BRILIANT .

My Immersion Assembely

Wow !!! Lots of teachers were dressed up as famous Mariners like Pirates,James Cook,Jessica Watson, Erick The Red and Leaf Erickson. It was our Immersion Assembly the first assembly for Term3.

First Mr Burt introduced Team 1. They had a video of some Maori men Paddling in a Waka . Then the Team 1 teachers started paddling like the men in the Waka .

After Team 1 it was Team 2 s turn - Mrs She was a Pirate and Mrs Burne was James Cook . They were Negotiating over what they wanted . It was funny because the pirate was putting his sword to James Cook’s Throat.

The Immersion Assembly was cool but very long , I think our topic Mighty Mariners is alright

The Game 3 Team For The Blues

As Fullback and number 1 Jarryd Hayne with the Wingers are Brett Morris as Number 2 also Michael Gordon as number 5 with centers we got Michael Jennings playing as number 3 as outside center Beau Scot with the playmakers Trent Barret playing as number 6 with halfback we got Mitchell Pearce . The front row Michael Ennis as hooker number 9 and Kane Snowden as other prop number 10 . With the two second rowers Luke Lewis and paul Gallen as lock Greg Bird. Interchange Kurt Gidley Tom Learoyd Lahrs,Tim Mannah and Anythony Watmough. I think we have a pretty good side. Just can't wait till next years State Of Origin no Lockeyer no Folau awesome . GO THE BLUES !!!!!!!!!!!

Jarryd Hayne

He is the one and only Jarryd Hayne He plays for the Paramatta Eels ,New South Wales Blues Australian Kangaroos and for Fiji. He’s got awards like Rookie of the year in 2006 and Daily M award last year. Last year in the grand final against Melbourne Storm they nearly won but they lost 23-16 I reckon that took a major blow to the Eels. His positions that he can play at are winger number 5 and fullback number 1 his Major position . Hes got the best step ever once against the Dragons he steped about 4 people,fooled Darius Boyd with a dummy and scored a wonderful try . That was my review on Jarryd Hayne. If you want to watch some highlights of Jarryd Hayne click on the link to youtube . I didn't put photos of him playing for the Kangaroos because I don't like them.HE IS THE BEST

Waatas worst All Blacks memorie

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/8/8c/France_Rugby_Logo.svg/247px-France_Rugby_Logo.svg.pnghttps://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfzN2BavJwi6VGMqspPoLZ9DDIK_1PD8vf9e370Wo1dMts8Ibeb9ImcIWR__h8ypNuiTOg0B4ZUqa4edKf6ArIemcIdNuII7SKwntV4zvvgcTAtCgFcOURs9_M13CoQHfrjehaByi3p7ts/s400/600px-All_Blacks_logo.svg. png these are the sites I got the photos from.
It all started like this in 2007 rugby world cup. It was a Sunday I just finished having my Sunday shower I get ready for church but before church me and my family watched the quarter final between All Blacks and France.We were so excited about this match."derrr"! The ref blows his whistle then kick off.Later into the game I get bored so I go have my Breakfast Porridge it was so delicious. Then the score was 15 to the french team and 17 to the All Blacks then the french team has numbers out wide the french person passes the ball to the winger of the french but the pass was forward , the winger runs down the side line not tackled and scores the try but everyone in my family said "it was forward" And it was forward ,but the ref said try then the ALL BLACKS lost. Well that was my worst memory of the All Blacks.

Highlights

http://static.panoramio.com/photos/original/
KIA Ora I am here to tell you about my highlights this year as year five.My first highlight for this I am going to tell you about is year 5,6 and 7 camp, it was very fun we went to rock climbing When I got there it was astonishing their were huge climbing walls I especially wanted to climb the Empire State Building climbing wall and see how hard it was .I tried it and it was easy.


My second highlight I am going to tell you about is doing a test for EXTENSION which is a awesome group. There were three tests they were very hard but I did good enough to be in extension.

http://faithfulfiend.files.wordpress.com/2009/03/nike-air-force-1-bespoke-premium-laces-1.jpg this is the site I got the shoe from.
My third highlight is doing a shoe for the Rock Our World. My shoe I did was alright but other peoples shoes were better in our extension group, like my friend called Starford his shoe was cool and this other boy called Joshua his one was awesome !! And guess what, we are in a competition with other schools in the world. If we win the competition the top designer of Nike D'Wayne will sell the shoe that out best drawer drew. That was my three highlights of the year.

Camp Kindness: Day One

Today is Wednesday, the first day of camp! I was very excited.

First we went to Rock Climbing which is my favourite thing. It is so cool. When I got there I was amazed that the climbing walls were so huge. Our teacher was Mr. Barks and our team was called the Considerators.

I started my first rock climbing wall. It was pretty big. I tried it in

Jandals! It was pretty slippery. I just made it about halfway up before it got too slippery so I asked to come down.

Then I tried the King Kong climbing wall. It was pretty easy. I got three quarters of the way before my legs got too tired so I came down. I was so exhausted that I went to have my lunch.

I had cheese and ham toasted sandwiches and a chocolate muffin. After lunch we had to go to the next activity.

Capture the Flag

On Friday Room 15 and 14 played Capture the Flag, it is a tactical game . The aim of the game is to Capture your Flag but your flag is on their side so you have to get the flag without getting touched.

On our first try we all ran to the other team's side. About 5 of our team got to the other team's pocket. Starford grabbed the flag, he dashed down the sideline with people chasing for him. Starford got to the other side and we won.

We all lined up for our second try. We all sprinted to the other side. Only 4 of the other team's people made it to our pocket. Lorenzo grabbed the flag and tried to run to the other side but somebody caught him . We took the flag back to our pocket then Oshania gots the flag for our team. She sprinted down the sideline and got to the other side. We won again . The score was 2-0. We lined up again, we ran and are yelling and screaming. We got to the other side. But we got touched. I ran back to our pocket nearly getting touched then i just made it to our side. I guarded the pocket. I touched somebody then someone for our side got the flag and ran back to our side. He stepped someone and just got back to our side. Yeah we won again. The score is 3-0 At the end the score was 5-1. Room 15 WON.

Welcome to Room 15 Waata.
