Term One

This term was easy and really fast - it went by before I could even say “ Done”. There were a few hard things this term but most of was pretty easy, I only had one fight this term but I came close to having two. Camp was the highlight of this term my favourite part of camp was going to swimmarama.



My favourite subject is maths people say I’m really good at it, last year my Icans test for maths got into the top 19th percent in New Zealand. I love doing maths but some of the strategies that the teacher tells me are sometimes confusing like equal addition, which is for subtraction. I came 2nd in academic for year 5 last year hopefully I can come 1st or 2nd this year which would be cool.


My three teachers are Olivia Muliaumasealii, Andrea Te’lea and my main teacher Juanita Garden they are very good teachers I like Mrs Te’lea the best because shes funny and makes things fun. I play for the school rugby team coached by Kent Sommervile, he’s the best ever coach we’ve had and this year we’re gonna win every match we play and watch out Vicount School because we’ve gone better then ever

Why do Babies Need More Sleep Than Grown Ups

Babies have always needed more sleep then adults, the size of a baby judges how much sleep it needs. Toddlers and children grow every time they sleep but children don’t grow as fast as Babies. Children don’t need as much sleep then babies but they need more sleep than adults. Little ones don’t do much, they only sleep and eat.












Adults need sleep so they can have a good rest. Cell’s in their body’s that are worn a replaced by new ones. When they sleep it repairs their body’s, so they can be refreshed for another day at work.






Grown ups mostly need food for energy.But kid’s also need energy from food and to make muscles and bones. Food is vital to baby’s without it they won’t have energy to run around as lots of little ones like to do between the ages of 1 and 2.

What are Hieroglyphics?

Hieroglyphics are an ancient Text that is hard to spell and say. It is two Greek words meaning secret carving, it is a picture of some think familiar like a weapon or a syllable to a word. The Egyptians used them in tombs.


The name of these marks Hieroglyphics was given thousands of years ago in Egypt. They were found in temples and Palaces. Some of these buildings are still standing today, the marks can still be seen on them.


In 1799 a huge stone called Rosetta was discovered, Hieroglyphic writing was all over it but many language experts didn’t know what it meant. Luckily someone copied a more recent Egyptian language meaning on the bottom. Greek was also under the Egyptian writing which made it easier for a French expert to understand it.

Part 1 Swimmirama

I was in the 10 year old freestyle heat race. The water was freezing but I had to get use to it . Miss King said "on your marks get set go" And boom I shot off like a bullet but I wasn't coming first.

Then I quickly got to third place and got my group the Super Chargers 10 points
