Cross Country

                                                                                         
On Tuesday we had our school cross country. I can tell you right now it was the worst experience of my life. I was twitching, I had blurry eyes and finally my back was aching badly. But after all that hard work I finally got through it and finished my race. It may have been a long run but by the end of it I learnt that hard work pays off.  

The Royal Jelly Show

On the 29th of May the whole school went to experience the Royal Jelly Show. It was a play all about an evil mayor who wanted to wreak havoc over all Bees. And all he ever cared about was money. Until one day an innocent girl came along and decided to show the mayor who's boss. Watching this play made me think more about our environment. And one very important thing I learnt was that Bees are very important creatures that help one very important thing in this world - our environment. 

The White Crane

In Reading my group and I studied old myths. This is the one that I chose.
The story is a Korean story called The White Crane. It is about a girl taken in by a couple. But this girl is special because she can turn into a white crane. I learnt from the story that if you do something good for someone they will do something good in return. I enjoyed reading this story.

The storm

This poem was inspired by the enormous storm that hit Auckland.

The Storm

I see destroyed houses with lightning hovering above each one

I hear glass shattering with wild roars

I smell the burning smoke crawling through my body 

I taste cold dry wind blowing me away

I touch the broken cars stinging my fingers 

It makes me feel miserable and dark.

Statistics

In Room 6 math's class we have been doing statistical investigations. First we learnt about  stem and leaf graphs and did fun investigations on sports . We also learnt how to make graphs on Excel. We learnt how to make pie graphs and different types of bar graphs. Below are some of the graphs my partner and I have made on Excel.

Good Friday

Good Friday is the day of Jesus's death. He died at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Before that he shared his body and blood. The clothes the priest where's is red. This is because they want to show the blood of Jesus Christ.

Mantra

This is my mantra. Everyone in my class did one. A mantra is a positive message to inspire you and make you a better person. My mantra is inspired for people who would give up easily. For them to try harder.
