Pheidippides

The Greeks had defeated the Persians at the end of a long battle. Pheidippides had to deliver the good news to Athens. So Pheidippides went to his boss and Pheidippides boss said “ go tell Athens that we won”.Under the beating sun Pheidippides was very sweaty, hot and dehydrated. Over the rocky mountains Pheidippides went up, down and around the cliff.  Pheidippides never gave up he kept going.Joy! we won” shouted Pheidippides as he arrived at Athens.  But there was sad news  Pheidippides had died. He died because he did not have any water and also he was very hot and exhausted.  

Usain Bolt

Usain Bolt was thankful for all his support and that he had won the race and got the gold medal. Usain Bolt was also proud cause he won for his country and that he is extraordinarily proud of himself. Usain Bolt was feeling also like a champion because he is the fastest man in the world.

Fencing

The Persians and Greeks were practising their fencing skills. Some of the people now believed that fencing is  a sport. In the modern Olympics.  Some of the people back in the old they use days use to call the fencing swords an art.

In 1896 fencing was introduced to the Olympics game.  Today at the Modern Olympics fencing is now a sport.120 years later at the Modern Olympics game.

Science

Once upon a time there was a girl named Miss Vaia she was a scientist. She had a Science laboratory under ground she started mixing up her experiments.  Experiment means ingredients to make a volcano. Miss Vaia was wearing a white jacket to test her chemicals in the test tube.

Then Miss Vaia poured it into her volcano then suddenly the volcano exploded.  The lab was very hot and was full of lava. Miss Vaia was really disappointed.

So Miss Vaia had to clean her lab for  a long time. Miss Vaia was very tired but there was still heaps of mess it took a long time because the lava was really hot Miss Vaia had to wait. But finally the lava cooled down and Miss Vaia cleaned and finish cleaning the lab.

athletics

The bell rang we all sat down on the mat to have prayer so it will be a sunny day. We were all at the courts waiting very patiently for the rest of the classes to come. My house colour was hokule’a the best team the fast team. Finally we were all going to our activity.     

The first activity we went to was tug-of war the first group we played was Hine Moana the blue team so we had to try make this sparkly little ribbon pass the cone then who ever wins has to play the other team who won on the other rope next to us. My hands were starting to burn and get blisters I was gonna give up but I said to myself” keep going Sonnia almost there” finally the sparkle ribbon past our cone so we were jumping up and down ready to beat Hikianalia the yellow team.   

After alex our ruff said “on your marks, get set, go” and off we went we were pulling our hardest and our fingers were super saw we lost but we still felt proud of ourselves and so it was time to move on to the next activity which was high jump. High jump was the activity I will always struggle on. The first jump  I past it because it was easy the second was also easy but the third one I really struggled that I had to keep on retrying it I keep trying keep trying then finally I finally past but it was time to move on to the next course.

The next course was sprinting.  Mr Burt had split us up in groups and to go  to our lines that we were meant to be in as soon as Mr Burt said” take your marks get set go” and off we went I was running and I  was coming in fourth place then I sprinted faster than I had became third so I had to play the people that came First second and third in the other group I was running so fast that at the end I did not even know that  I was coming in first place.  Then the finals came up Mr Burt said” take your marks get set go” I was not focusing but I ran my fastest and I had came in third place so I was in the finals vsing other schools.

There next rotation was dicus with Mr Somerville he showed us how to throw the discus pad so you hold it and you rock back and forth back and forth then back and forth then release it in air. Mr Somerville wanted a runna  to get the  discus pad so I raised my hand up and Mr Somerville choose me. As soon as Levonah had threw her discus pad and everyone else I ran to pick it all up and see who came first second and third for discus so they could go in the finals.

The time was running out it was time to move on to the next rotation which is Javelin with Prince Danielle big brother . Prince said to us” point your hand at the sky and throw it really hard”. As soon as it came to my turn I followed the instructions and I came first so who ever came third has to go back and line up and throw again.

We only had a little amount of time so it was a short game. After Mr Burt had said his speech  he sended classes to go get their morning tea to eat I was so thirsty that I drank my water bottle finish. I eight a doughnut and a up and go.

After I had a little warm up on the race course the bell rang so we had to go straight to the netball courts so we can start. Mr Burt had send us to the activity that we were meant to go to after javelin anyways we were going to play sack race but unfortunately the senior broke it so we had to play egg races. The egg race is a fake coloured egg and you have to try balance the egg on to the mixing stick but it also a race.

Who ever comes first second or third get house points.  As soon as it was my turn I was speed walking but when I speed walked around the cone the egg dropped but we had to keep going and we had a couple of rounds.It was time to move on to the next rotation which was dodgeball.

The coach told us that “it is  not like playing teams it’s just touching the person from the shoulder and down but you are only allowed to take three steps and aim for the person who you're aiming for” if you aim and you hit a person they have to sit down and some other taggers will chase the person that tagged you and they sit down and I come back in. After all the running and puffing it was time to move on to the softball throw softball throw. Softball throw was also the sport I will struggle on I when it came to my turn I was so nervous to throw that I had also have butterflies in my tummy it was time for me to throw the softball ball.

I throw it and I came forth we had a couple of rounds then it was time to move on to my favorite sport which is was relays. I was so excited to do relays so we got split up in our house colours and we had to run with the metal stick we were coming in second place then when Lilly passed me the stick every one was taking the lead but then I was coming first place because every one started to run a bit slower so I started speeding up. We were taking the lead and so we came first then Hine Moana then Hikianalia everyone else wanted to have the skipping race with the skipping ropes so our ruff said” okay we can have the skipping race. So I was the first person to skip when I was skipping I almost fell over but I was still taking the lead I came back past it on to Nahea and off she went she was skipping and she going way too fast so she fell over but she got back up and keep going she got back up and started laughing after everyone had their turn we were coming in third place so we were cheering for our team mate and came third.

Finally the sport I have been waiting for which was touch but it was not like playing team. We got split into teams one team had tshirt on and the other group didn’t so the aim of the game was if the coach calls out your number you have to run get the ball and try score a try where you were sitting  if you get touched the other person get a turn.  It came and we only had a little amount of time so we had a short game. It came to my turn I got the ball the Hope had tagged me then Hope ran and she got touched so it was back to me I picked up the ball and I ran my fastest and got try me and Hope were the lucky last and everyone else was moaning.

After  all the fun I had the bell rang for lunchtime and that means  we had to go to the field to watch the senior’s and parent do relays. They got it to their house colour which was Hikianalia, Hine moana,Te Aurere and Hokule’a the best team. Mr Burt said” on your marks get set go” off the seniors went they were very very fast they had to go around the cone and pass it to their teammate. It was time for the parents to go so Mr Burt said” on your marks get set go” off the parent went they were very fast and very speedy I was enjoying watching it but it finish so it was to go home.

Manaiakalani

Last Wednesday the 9th of November the whole of Pt England school were going to the 2016 Manaiakalani film festival. Manaiakalani Film Festival is a thing we do every year. I was skipping with excitement to go on the bus.  Sitting with my friends waiting patiently at the Sylvia Park Hoyts I was so anxious to watch the movie that we had created. A few moments later I was so surprised when I saw Marika and Josh standing in front of heaps of people they were the two presenters. My favourite movie was the Katy Perry rise movie that we had created because we had made a Pt England version to the Katy Perry rise song. I felt nervous when I was watching the movie that Mr Moran had created with us. Everyone in the crowd was clapping for our movie. I felt proud of myself. Once we got out of the the cinemas there were two schools waiting very very patiently. We were all outside waiting for our bus to come. Then finally a bus came and off we went we were going back to school to have morning tea. The bus got to school and we got off and went to the hall we went from the hall to class because there were some teachers coming in different bus.

Once upon a time there was a girl named Miss Vaia. Her mother told Vaia to go to sleep Vaia Said “okay mum”. Then Miss Vaia woke up and was scared Vaia had ended up in a creepy, dark and scary forest. Vaia was frightened and was petrified. Vaia was all alone until she said to herself “calm down Vaia don’t be scared”. Then Vaia had just fell to her bed and started sleeping.  In the morning Vaia woke up and heard the birds tweeting. Vaia decided to go look for some food because she starving and her tummy was rumbling. So she went and got some food then she saw a  the river  and saw fishes jumping up and down so she went and try and get  one then finally on the 3rd fish she was trying to get she got it.  She was very smart and she went and got some sticks and rocks then made the fire so he could cook the fish.  As soon as Vaia was eating she heard some footsteps it looked like his mum. So mum took him back home.

Olympic movie

\
Hi this is my movie about the olympics hope you enjoy.

pierre de coubretin

After a gap of hundreds of years the Olympics returned to Athens in 1896. The reason behind the recreation of the Olympics was because of one man Pierre de Coubertin. He admired the Greek ideas of fitness and sporting communities amongst different competitiveness, and he had  hoped that the modern Olympics would bring countries closer together.

Athens 1896 - The First Olympic Games

The Olympics of 1896 In Athens, in Greece had fourteen countries taking part with most of the athletes from Greece. This first modern Olympics was the largest meeting international competitors that had ever occurred. The next Olympics held in paris, four years later, was the first to allow women competitors. This time the Olympics were part of a much bigger event and lasted several months.

math work

Today I have been learning about skect notes it was so fun doing it but it took for long because I had to do other stuff to.

Ben Johnson

In 1988 Ben Johnson was in the 100m final sprint. Ben Johnson is from canada he was competing against Carl Lewis and other competitors. Ben Johnson had took a lot of drugs.

Ben Johnson had big muscles. All eyes on Ben Johnson and Carl Lewis. In the 50m race Ben Johnson was gone he had finish the race and won the gold medal.

Sadly for all the bad reasons when Ben Johnson was   taking his drug test they realized that Ben Johnson took drugs and won the gold medal. But there was something wrong because Carl Lewis was meant to win the gold medal because Ben Johnson had took drugs. So Carl Lewis had won the gold medal so Ben Johnson ended up being disqualified.

flame olympics

The Ancient Greeks started the tradition of having an Olympic flame. In Olympia a sacred flame is lit by the sun's rays and stays alight until the games have ended. The flame symbolized a request for protection from Zeus and the athletes’ struggles for victory.

The Modern flame symbolizes the light of the spirit, knowledge and life. To this day, the torch is still lit in Olympia in Greece, then carried by a relay team, passing runner to runner, until it reaches the host-city of the games. There the cauldron will be lit and stay alight until the closing ceremony.

Ancient olympics

The Olympics began two and a half thousands years ago in ancient Greece.In thoes days Greece was made up of several different states including Athens, Sparta and Corinth and they were offten at war with each other.But when the games were on they helled the truce. This great event was held in at a place called Olympia and this is why the games are called Olympics.

They were  held  once every 4 years on a honour
of Zeus lord of all the gods.

Eventually the ancient Olympics were Abolished by the roman emperor theodosius the first who was a Christian and didn't like the games because they were dedicated to a pagan god But the Olympics will always remember as a symbol of human achievement and peace.

New pet bird

oday we had got a new pet it was a two birds it is a boy and girl the girl name Brooklyn and the boy name is bucky.This is a different type of parrot we got this bird from my mum friend because he had too much. So he thought he that he will give one to my mum. So mum said “ thank you and as she came home with it  was so happy and so was I and my cousin I had feed it the food which is the seeds.The next day we had feed it and gave its water it was very happy to see me. But it was very hungry so we had a little play with it then let it go to sleep. I think he had a good day and that he was tired and so I went sleep to.

art adventure

Think about going on and art adventure outside to each class room. My favorite was with Whea safe because we were painting and because painting is one of my favorite things to do I had so much fun.Also the funny part was when we were trying to make it not go on the table but it happen.We were able to have so much fun going to each class and for also  helping whea safe make her own fare by painting and working as a team.When we finish we packed up and said thank you and so we went back to our class and helped them pack up.Then our teachers said you had so much fun then she said raise your hand up so the hole of our class raised their hand up.

boming

umping off a giant cliff into the blue sea the boy made a giant splash.

The boy came back up very fast and laid down on the rock. On the rocky cliff the boy said “my mum can do better bombs than you.”

Under the blue sky the boy and the man had a little chat.

On a rocky cliff

Bravely the man jumped into the lake and he surprisingly done an enormous splash.

tamarereti story

Taniwha lives at the bottom of the taupo lake he is a green an giant taniwha who wakes up at night and eat’s pepole at when they go hunt for some fish. Tamarereti is a boy who woke up in the morning and he’s tummy was rumbling so he hoped into he’s waka and started paddling through  taupo lake.When tamarereti was paddling through taupo lake he got  three  large fish but he got a bit tired so he thought he will take a nap.But when tamarereti was napping he got blown away by the wind.So he hit this land and he’s tummy kept on rumbling so he cooked one of his fish and he stareted eating  then he saw a shinying pebbles  so he put as many in he’s waka and paddle through taupo lake while he was chuking the stars up to the sky.When tamarereti got home he fell straight to sleep then as he woke back up ranginui the god of the sky wanted to say something to tamarereti he wanted to say’ that the sky looks very beautiful when you chunked the pebbles up to the sky.

Creating my artwork  made me feel so proud  because  it will make me and my friends proud and I think they are also proud of their artwork.  Making my artwork made me feel excited because painting is my favorite thing to do.  

Most of all I enjoy vividing my artwork when the paint was dry.  Also the painting was amazing but took us  about four weeks to complete our artwork.

I found the painting a bit hard because I was trying to keep the paint inside the line but it went out.

I also found hard was to draw my picture on the big piece of paper.I will do better next time by not using too much purple.

I will do better next time by not doing so much squiggly lines.he most interesting thing I did was my buildings because I thought it was so easy to but then all of a sudden I kept on making mistakes.

I learnt to paint better and that could be better at drawing.
