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.
