This Term is Perseverance this means you never give up and at the bottom is a quote about it by Martin Luther King Jr. We (Room 12) have been researching about earthquakes and studding the February Christchurch earthquake and here is a link National Geographic http://video.nationalgeographic.com/video/inside-earthquake. This Term we are going swimming so if you were stranded in the middle of sea you would live.

In 50 years time what skills or subjects will not be taught to Year 7 & 8 students

In 50 years time what skills or subject
will not be taught to Year 7 & 8 students

In 50 years time they should not teach Health because in year 5,6 they teach you Health and everyone hates doing Health. Secondly what they should do is if you have a computer of your own  they should do a computer lesson like teaching you the basics of computers, it would be awesome to teach the ones that don't have the devices at home. Also, they should do Science Fair and Prep every year so everyone gets the chance to do it, for example if you were sick on Prep day the next year you would get another chance. And another thing we should do is cooking your'e probably thinking  it isn't work but at least you get to learn how to bake and cook. I think that all the other subjects we do are fantastic and that they should stay there for One thousand years! When we do reading we should do it on the devices, bring your kindle if you have one and read on there. In the future we should play educational games in school time like Cool Math Games. Someone from the medical center  should come in and teach us about first aid kits, tell us about the basics, how to save a life and to call 111. In summary this is why we should or shouldn't have these subjects in the future. Thank you for Reading!!! :D:D:D:D

Why Should We Have Tech Day?

Technology

Are you tired of school and want a fun day at the end of school?And you want to play games?I think we should have a tech day why we have been working hard and that we should have freedom! But anyway we should have a tech day to celebrate what we have done in this term,like this term Prep and Speeches, celebrate what work we have done towards it. And if you do vote PLEASE vote for video games day! But probably 50% of this class wants to do something else like sports outside or watch a movie on the TV like Shrek.We could combine them together! What we can do is bring your iPod,iPad,tablet,phone play games on it and if we can bring your consoles example Xbox,PlayStation,Wii and Nintendo. Anyway we should have a what ever you want day bring what ever you want to school and we should do a game outside like infected or do a game of seaweed on the Turf or Ball rush(tackle or touch). This should be for the whole Syndicate, We should have every class has it's on thing like for example Room 12 will be technology, Room 11 will be sports outside. My conclusion is that after all the work we have done this term we should have a what ever you want day at the end of this term and that's why we should have that day! Thank You For Reading!

The Silence was deafening Shrek,Chains and Dallas were all silent. It was a big day for them,they had to rob the Jewelry Store. It was 6am it was  the coldest day yet Shrek and Chains had a puffy jacket and Dallas had a one piece suit. They were outside wandering around for the right moment, to rob the store! It was time Shrek,Chains and Dallas had put there clown mask on. But the three guards at the Jewelry store had surrendered to Shrek. The manager had saw them and rung 911

“Oh Crap!” shouted Shrek

“Get on the floor people”screamed Dallas

everyone was on the floor and the Police arrived...

Shrek Story

Once Upon a time there was an ogre called Shrek, he lived in a swamp. This morning he traveled to Donkeys house Shrek's best friend Shrek went up to the door and knocked,
"Who's there?"shouted Donkey
"It's your mate Shrek" Shrek replied
"HI SHREK"Screamed Donkey.
Shrek entered Donkeys house and gave Donkey some Onions
"Thanks Shrek"
"why are you here?" questioned Donkey.
"Just because"said Shrek
"OK" replied Donkey.
Shrek and Donkey played hide and seek in Donkeys garden. After they played hide and seek Shrek flew home, took a bath in the swamp BANG! Shrek heard something exploded in his house...

"The year in review – the best, the worst and the ugly!"

The Year In Review-The best,The Worst and The Ugly!
The worst thing that has happen to me this year is:Health that was really horrible and boring,watching assembly on a hard wooden floor no room!Doing homework like writing this down right now,doing the month basic facts and reading log so that is pretty much doing homework. Science Fair we had tried really hard doing this and it looks completely stupid,Doing Winter sport I was doing Hockey and I really sucked at that. The best things I liked this year was:Going up Kapiti Island walking up the hill was fun and a challenge,Doing my speech I was really confident about my speech and it came out good then I expected. Doing the computer stuff for assembly that was really fun no mistakes,World war topic that was quite interesting that I learnt a'lot from that change over Interchange,I liked the Run,Jump,Throw that was a cool sport. The thing I will be forward looking at is what class room I will be in next year. I liked the School Gala program at school but the two bad things was that none of Mr Wynnes videos got sold(they were really old though) and we made little money then the other stall made $200 and we made $40 dollars :(.The most big thing for me was Fun Friday I think that it's good that the teachers made that up my favorite ones are Infected(Waikanae Park)and swimming. Swimming lessons are fun as well on Wednesday I was proud that I did 3 lengths of swimming without stopping that is my highest. The Technology day (Xbox,PlayStation)the first one was really fun and second but not the third one was really boring so I hope Term 4 Technology will be very fun. There is no ugly for me this year and the biggest highlight this year is... KAPITI ISLAND!

If you joined the circus, who would you like to be?  What act would you do? Why? 


I would be an happy clown dancing and juggling bowling bowls in the air.  Why for an challenge for me to do in the circus. I would put my head in a lions head and be on the trampoline jumping in the air doing flips and juggling in mid air while upside down. I don't know why I would do this but it would be a try doing it. I know you think I wouldn't suit a happy clown but I would not be a sad clown. Any way I would be in the circus doing silly dances and juggling bowling bowls and have a mini tricycle peddling around they circus. Be on the line in mid air on my tricycle juggling my bowling bowls with my eyes closed and make it to the other side.The second act would be putting my head in lions mouth and in water in a sharks mouth. The third act would be me chained under water try to escape, that I would have unlocked the locks. The final act would be a cannon and fire rings I would have to have me blind folded 360 back flip. Why #Yolo (you only live once.)
