Future Aspirations 2

Today on Wednesday the whole seniors were in the street so we could hear some of the people who were young and had a good dream. First of all we had to make sure the place was cleared and make sure the shelves were moved. After that we sat down on on our mat and that's when the visitors came in.


First was Mr Patterson, and he introduced himself. Then Mr Patterson introduced the other visitors to our whanau. There names were Anthony Samuels, Amelia, Paula and another person but he didn't say a speech. The visitors were going to have a turn having a speech and also gave us some messages that would help us in the future.


Anthony’s story was about being an actor on What Now, and also owning his own company. Second was Paula and his story was about when he was young but quite tall. Paula told us that he joined the swimming team because he was quite good at swimming. But Paula actually used a secret weapon which was his tall legs. When it came to the race he nearly drowned because the pool was too deep.

Last was Amelia and she talked to us about how her friends thought that she couldn't make it in anything, But then she discovered that she could do fashion. That was all of the stories of the future aspirations people who came in to talk to us about. Then the visitors told us there messages, and first was Anthony s message which was your past does not have to determine your future. Paula’s message was to keep trying. Last was Amelia's which was believe you can do it believe you know it and believe you deserve it I think.

And that was the end of all of there speech. We ended it with our school song which was Mihi Mairai.

Whanau Tangle pattern

If you have two classes who have joined together but you need something that can make people realize that you have joined together, then a whanau tangle pattern is what you need. I will tell you how to make one.

First you need to make a pattern on the paper that has been outlined with a pen or colouring pen. After everyone has done that, you then have to make a celtic knot. The celtic knot is knot that has no beginning or end cause it is a whole group. To do the celtic knot you need to do a weaving that goes under and over.

After you have done that you should have your own whanau tangle pattern that you created with others. When we first did it I felt like it was going to be hard to make the tangle pattern. Because we don’t have any instructions to tell us, so we made up our own.


That is the best activity to do if you wanted to join two classes together cause they also have there own pattern that they created, don’t remember that. It would always be different because thats what some of us are. I hope you enjoy making your own whanau tangle pattern with everyone.

Revolution Tour

On Wednesday day afternoon a group name the Revolution Tour came to our school hall to talk to us about something and giving us a message. The revolution tour were from Australia. The only thing about this is that only the seniors which were the year 7s and the year 8s came to watch them. When everyone settled two people talked to us and then introduced us on what there names were. I couldn’t remember what there names were though.


For them to give us a message they did it in a play. First they were in class and then someone had to introduce a new person they was only there first time. The person that was introducing the new guy on who his name was started bullying him. Then when it came to sports there had to be leaders who pick who they want. But the new person didn’t like the school because he got bullied, so then the a person from the start told us that the message was stop the bull.


What I learnt from that message was that I need to do something when some is getting bullied and help them if they don’t feel alright and they feel scared. Also I need to be standing up for someone who will bullied. It affects me by if I was bullied and I didn’t feel welcome.


What I am going to do is help one another.

Kiwi Sport Football

In class 5 we go to football Kiwi sport at the hard court. We do football with sophia and she teaches us some tricks and how to play football. We are also in teams that are names of one of the countries in the world. The name of my team is Switzerland and in my team there is Peh so, Frank, me and Evan.

Sophia gives us football games against the other teams in our class. We don’t really win our games but we still like playing. But sometimes we get a tie on our games. Sophia gives us a short time to play so we have to be fast. In our team we try to plan our moves so we can get a score but sometimes it doesn't work.


It is fun playing tournaments with the other teams but our team can’t score fast enough because of how short we play for. There are six teams altogether that play in different courts but the rest are left out watching until the other games are finished. Sophia calls us in when the times up by first blowing her whistle. Then she sees who won there game and then they verse another team that has won there game.


After the teams have versed every other country we see which country has got the most points and then they win one of sophia’s prize. The country or team that won were the Brazil team with 18 points.

My Colour wheel















relax his students and



Colour



Introduction:
There are different types of colours such as Blue, Orange, Yellow, Green, Violet and others like that. Colours are everywhere and we see them everywhere. Colours are used to make something stand out and look good.


Primary Colours:
Primary colours are the first colours before the the tertiary colours or secondary colours. The primary colours are Blue, Red and Yellow. If you mix them together they will make the secondary colours.


Secondary Colours:
To make secondary colours you need to mix two primary colours. Like this:
Red and Blue = Violet, Blue and Yellow = Green, Red and Yellow = Orange. Orange, Violet and Green are all of the secondary colours because they were made by the primary colours.


Tertiary Colours: Now to make tertiary colours, and to make that you need to have the secondary and Primary colours to be mixed. Violet and Red = Dark Red, Violet and Blue = Dark Blue, Green and Blue = Light Blue. Next one Yellow and Orange = Brown, Orange and Red = Dark red and Green and Yellow = Light green.

Those are all of the tertiary colours that can be made from secondary and primary colours.
