Austrailia

Flying in the plane was so boring. We didn't even had anything to do.Only look outside at the white clouds. i took 3 hours and 55 minutes. I thought it was going to be short because it is the nearest country. As we reached, I knew something. It was my first time in Australia. I was my lucky day and a sad day. No friends.

About Me

Manaiakalani

WOW!!! I can’t believe that the Minister of Education came to our school yesterday. Thank you our parents for paying money every single week, I really like having a Net Book. Mum and Dad is so kind to us because they love me.

Manaiakalani is a really famous thing that helps kids which has NetBooks. It also helps with the wireless so that we can share our work with the world. I really enjoy working with Netbooks but I just wish I could learn to look after it properly.

My Film Festival Review

Tamaki College is the best school. They are all good at acting and even good with the cameras. One direction is good at singing so I think that is why they did that song. My favourite was Uili and Antonio.

I really loved their dancing because they were giving it their best shot. The big Tamaki Boys were really funny because how they act and lip sync. Paul was the person I liked out of Tamaki. He didn't just dance, he walked and dance.

After that 3 years later, I thought that there won’t be any one because they were already old. Nek Minute it was really funny. Five men dancing were really funny. I noticed something at the end. Every single person looks just the same but older.

The scores I’m going to give them is 10 stars out of 10. It was really exciting. One Direction is the BEST!!!

Here is their movie.

Brush your Teeth.

50 word story of The Test

                                                 Here is their movie

Watching Room 18’s movie was really funny. It was all about their maths test. It started really quiet. But then..... They started chucking papers around. They were distracting other people, and even calling each other on mobile phones. Their teacher was busy on his laptop. “Test Finish”, the teacher said.

Today My Life Begins

My friends and I made this movie for the Manaiakalani Film Festival. Our whole class had the chance to make a movie. We had to plan, prepare, film and edit all by ourselves. Our class had our own film festival to select the best two, to be shown at the Manaiakalani Film Festival. Here is my group's entry!

Scary Doll

ALMA

Without a care in the world, a small girl skipped  through the narrow cobblestone alleyway. Alma had been told to write her name on the town blackboard. When you are 9 years old you have to write your name on this blackboard. It was a traditional thing in this village. Alma wrote on the blackboard. A..L..M..A.. Hearing an old machine working behind her, she turned around in surprise. She saw a doll that looked exactly like her.

Staring at the doll, Alma wiped the frost that had gathered on the shop window to get a better view of the doll. The doll disappeared silently. She crept over to the door. Alma thrust her hand out and pulled down the handle. It was locked. Angrily she walked away and grabbed a snowball and threw it to the door.

Walking away from the shop, suddenly the door flew open. Alma turned around with excitement, and ran to the door. Taking a step in to the shop, Alma looked around. Everything looked so threadbare. Looking around, Alma saw the doll on a table. Peering at the identical looking doll, she stumbled towards it, one step at a time.

Suddenly, she heard something. Alma looked down, and saw a little toy on the floor. It was a boy pedaling a tricycle. Alma put the bike upright, and it cycled circles around her, then over to the door. BANG! It closed just in front of him. The boy kept on cycling forwards, slamming into the door over and over again. He looked as if ….....

Alma looked around, and wondered where the doll had gone. It had disappeared again. She then saw it again, on the shelf next to other dolls. Climbing the sofa underneath her, Alma was ignorant of everything but the doll that looked like her. As she was reaching up for the doll, all the other dolls moved their eyes and followed her. But Alma didn’t notice anything.

When Alma’s hand touched the doll, there was a ZAP!! Her whole life flashed before her eyes. Alma looked around. She couldn’t move. She couldn’t smile. She couldn’t do ANYthing but look around and breathe, which became heavy. Then everything made sense. The boy on the bike (which was still slamming into the door over and over again) WAS trying to escape, and all the other dolls were trying to warn her, but they could only look around.

In horror, Alma saw the next doll wheel up.....

First Day of Swimmimg

With a lovely morning, Room 13 waited out the pool, I imagined how cold it would be.With a great loud voice, Ms King shouted, “Hop inside the pool one at a time”.

Marching into the pool, everyone started shivering. We all started with a great morning. Kicking through the water, I heard, “Stop, Look, and Listen”. I started to be silence. Only the wind was making noise.

We started with kicking. It was fun. Next we kicked with the boards. Kicking up and down, we stopped. Staring at Ms King, she grabbed the noodles.

I did not know what to do with it. The only thing I knew was floating. Ms King threw it two each group of three. We started to paddle and paddle and paddle. We were use to it.

Finishing the morning was the best. Two minutes of free time. Boys wanted to play against girls. There was only 4 boys so that wasn’t fair. Anyway we won the challenge of splashing the water the highest.

Narrative of the Beach

Hi my name is Joshua, I have a little sister, my mum and my dad. My dad is a nurse. Today we have a bbq at Point England Beach. It is a sunny day so we are all going with our stuff and togs.

We got there so early. I ran and changed. While changing inside the toilet, I heard a big sound of music. The song was not that bad.

Splashing into the water, I heard a voice that sounds like my mum. “Get back here Joshua”, She shouted, while changing my baby’s nappy. “Can you wait Mum? I’ll come when I am bored”.

Running to the rock, something bad happened.I try to stop but  I slipped onto a real hard rock, it felt like gold. I cried and cried and cried. I didn't even stop.“MUMMY MUM!!!”, I cried with my big lump on my head.Mum was right. I should have some rest.


I saw Mum's feet walking towards me. “What happened?”, she said with a really smooth voice. “I don’t know, I just ran then I slipped”, I said nervously. I thought she was going to give me a hiding. But she didn't.

Mum grabbed me and took me to our car. “Let’s go home”, she said while dumping me into the back. I was still wet but she did not care. We left. Just because my dad works at the Auckland hospital, my head was not well. I told him what had happened.

I had to go to the hospital. The next day it was alright for me to go back home to my family. Yay.

Trick or Treating Narrative

After a good night of trick or treating, we went home. Counting my lollies, my annoying brother snatched the bucket. But luckily I held on the bucket so tight. “Give it back”, I aggressively said. He replied with a bunch of lollies in his mouth, “It’s not yours”. While arguing, we heard mum coming. We didn’t care. “GIVE IT BACK”, I said while snatching the bucket to my side. “GO TO BED”!!! shouted our mum. “ And give those lollies to your older brother”, continued mum.

Smoking Not Our Future

\      People are all about being cool. They smoke because of that reason and because they are influenced by their friends. But they do it without looking into the future. Smoking causes health problems, it can affect how you look and can waste your money.

Smoking is not a good idea because it could cause many health problems. It is known that there are 4000 chemicals that are put into every cigarette. Smoking gives you a higher chance of dying, in fact 4500 people die in NZ every year. For pregnant women smoking is also very bad for the unborn baby.


Cigarette is a also very expensive habit. In shops the price of cigarettes are $15 for one packet. It could cost you $105 a week if you smoke a pack a day. This could also cost thousands of dollars a year. If you are wondering why the government lets people sell them, it’s because he gets a lot of money for each box of cigarettes that is sold. This is because the government has to spend lots of money on the health problems from smoking.

Smoking can also affect the outside of your body. It makes you look old. I watched a video, where there was a man interviewing a lady who looked as old as my grampa. But she wasn't. She looked like she was in her 40’s while my grandpa was in his 80’s. Which is half the age she looked like.

I really think that teenagers shouldn’t start smoking. Even if people in your family smokes I’d advise you to don't start. It is a really strong thing. Once you start you can get addicted to it. So the best idea is to keep away.

Toy Story Wordle

Room 13 has had a fun assembly. Our title is Toy Story. Just like the movie. Well, this morning our class has come up with a bunch of ideas of what you think a toy is.  I think it is something you play with. When we have done writing we copy and paste it on Wordle. My favorite toy is LEGO. Here is a link for you to have a try with WORDLE.

Ninja Mouse

Once upon a time, there was a mouse named Frank. Frank was a real mini ninja. His mission was to recover the lost cheese of LeRat. He was working for his poor dad Paula. They had no money or food, so Frank decided to be a HERO.

The next day, he looked up on the internet as to where to find LeRat. LeRat was the place where the cheese was. It said that it was near Bishop’s shed. Bishop was a little bad superhero. “Ohhhh”, said Frank. Frank the ninga already met with Bishop. But Bishop ran away.

The next morning, Frank heard Bishop’s voice. HAHAHAHA. He looked outside. Bishop was ran holding Frank’s girlfriend. Running down the stairs, Frank rushed outside. The enemy Bishop hopped in his Ferrari and went off. Frank sat in his Bugatti and boosted of to the red Ferrari.

They both arrived in Bishop’s shed. Frank never knew where he was. He started sneaking through the living room. BOOM. Something went down. It was a cage. It snapped a little bit of his hair. “Hahahaha, who do I have here”, a deep voice said. I sounds like Bishop. “Whos here” Frank said. There was no reply.

Frank forgot he had a mini gun. He took it out of his bag and shot the cave. There was a hole at the cave. Finally he was out. He started to sniff through the way. He ended up in the toilet. There was the cheese.

He arrived in. He stopped outside the door. Frank grabbed a hammer from his pocket and threw it on the toilet. Nothing happened. He took one step inside. His arm came out of his pocket, and grabbed the cheese and runned away.

He was nearly home. He noticed he forgot his bugatti. When Frank arrived home his family hugged him with their love. That night they told stories and live happy till they were old. Real Old.
     

Playing Basketball

Walking down to the caught, I was really excited to play basketball. Do you like basketball? I do. Bouncing the up and down, I realized that I wasn't going fast enough.

"When are we going to do our shooting in the hoop", I asked our coach. Our coaches name was Tai and another person. I didn't know his name. So I called him Mat.

Finally we were up to our shooting. Running and bouncing the ball, it was time to shoot. Yay. I got it in. At the end of our warm up, we had a FUN game. I was number one. We had to run and get the ball, and start to bounce and shoot. I had to in. BUT... Sadly we lost. Poor our team. It was still fun.

Running back to our classroom, it was time for our lunch. I wonder what sport we are doing next term?

Funny Movie

This is a funny video. If you watch it 100 times, you can still laugh. Just enjoy.

Thai Fish Cakes

Have you ever tasted or made Thai Fish Cakes. Point England did well, but sadly we never came first place. It was so easy because we never had to chop anything, but the other groups had to chop chop all day. Myfavorite part of the process is me Iisa cooking the Thai on the pan. It looked really nice. At home I want to cook it, But we don't have the right ingredients. Even I might already forget the ingredients.
