My Christmas Presents

Yesterday we Got presents and we were so surprised. 

On Wednesday the 4th we got expensive presents from a company called Fletcher buildings. 

Firstly, Our teacher told us we were going to get presents before lunch but only year 0 - 4 can get presents. Right after lunch we were so excited and confused at the same time because we were wondering why are we getting our christmas presents so early ? When we were about to go to the hall with Rm 9 to get our presents Rm 4 was in their getting their presents so we had to wait quite a while so we started talking to each other while we were waiting for Rm 4 to get their presents.

Next Rm 4 came out of the hall and they got some presents and some stuffed animals and they were super happy. When Rm 4 got their presents and went back to their class. Rm 9 and us were so excited to see what we got even though it was wrapped, Mrs kumar said we can open it in our class as long as we clean our Mess.
Then Mr Steve was calling some names out and then my name was called out last but then I thought I wasn’t going to get a present but I did my name just got called out last. When we finished getting our presents we went to class and Mrs kumar said we can open our presents.

Finally, for my present I got a Pencil case, faltips, a cute little cat that is baby pink, My personal diary, Hair and body wash, a big popsicle floaty, something to soothe my lips out and an islander bag. I felt super excited and happy at the same time because I never knew that we were going to get our christmas presents so early but I was so happy.

Equal Pay For Equal Work

Why Women Should Get The Same Amount Of Money As Men.

Why ? ___________________ Women should get more money than men because women train equally hard and work hard. The NZ black ferns (women) won 5 times in the rugby world cup.

Why Not ? ___________________ Mens vs a lot of tough people and  they train very hard and they earn to get more money.

Animation

Today me and my class finished off our Animation. My Animation was about trash and litter. We should not litter because if we litter we are killing the sea animals and that is not good because we want sea animals to live for a reason (we all got our own reasons so that's why we don't want to litter and kill the sea animals.) The Moral of my story I made up : We should not letter because if we letter we are killing the sea animals especially the turtles because if we throw away plastic it will end up in the ocean and then the turtles will think that it is a jellyfish but it is actually just plastic. Have fun and enjoy my short clip !

My Fish

Today we did some Cybersmart with Miss Grant. We learnt something new on Sumo paint. Miss Grant said that we have to make a Google drawing and save it in our Cybersmart folder and then click on tools then press explore. Once you get to explore you have to find any background you like for example the beach, pools, garden ocean and a few other things. You have to chose one of the pictured then you insert it on your Google Drawing. Once you have done that you have to go on Sumopaint.com then you have to create something related to your picture that you inserted. When you finished you have to download your picture you created then post it on your Google drawing and last post it on your blog.

My Henna

            My Henna

My henna looked so incredible when my teacher put it on my hand !

On Wednesday the 30th of october, 2019 our teacher brought a Henna from her home so she can put it on us and design our hands just for Diwali but Diwali was on sunday but it is still fine. It was a very hot and sunny day.

Firstly we were all on our chromebooks and we were playing Coding. Before we were about to play coding our teacher told Pippa to go get Aahana because in the weekend on saturday Mrs Kumar put a Henna on her daughter and on sunday Aahana came to Mrs Kumar's house and Aahana was playing with Mrs Kumar’s Daughter and then Aahana saw Mrs Kumar's daughter’s Henna  and Mrs Kumar asked Aahana if she wanted a Henna Like Mrs Kumar's daughter and Aahana said ’’sure ’’ so Mrs kumar put it on Aahana. When Aahana came she showed us her Henna on both of her hands and she went back to class.

Next, While we were playing Coding our teacher was calling some people one by one to get their Henna on their hands. When some of us finished getting our Henna we Mrs kumar, which is our teacher she said we can take some photos so we can write about it and post it on our blog.

Later we it was morning tea and the bell rang so we went to wash our hands but the people who had their Henna had to wash 1 hand so their Henna doesn't get ruined after we finished washing our hands we ate our morning tea. After that, morning tea was over, we went back to class and Mrs Kumar was finishing puting the Henna on who she didn’t put it on.

Finally Rm 11 came and Mrs Kumar asked them if they wanted a Henna and they said ’’sure’’ so Mrs Kumar put it on them and they liked it like how we liked it. I felt super happy about my henna because the way my teacher made the henna in a design it looked so incredible.

Happy Halloween !

My Morning Fitness

My Morning Fitness

Today we did a lot of fitness and I was so tired !!

Firstly, This morning today we went to the assembly place when the bell rang. Mr Hendricks was announcing some important announcements about some of the trips coming up. When he finished Mrs Kumar and Mrs Goundar said that we were going to the Junior’s to do fitness there.When we arrived at the Junior’s Mrs Kumar told as to run around the junior’s playground 2 times.

Then we finished running around the Junior’s playground we were so tired and we all sat down on the ground and we were waiting for the other kids from Room 8 and 9 to finish running around the playground. When they finished running around the playground we started our fitness.

After that we did 30 star jumps and Mrs kumar said ’’Room 9 on the right side and Room 8 on the left side and which class can do the best fitness.’’ Then Mrs Kumar  said” To do thirty star jumps.’’ after we did thirty star jumps we did some sit ups and we had to get in pears and my buddy was Damani and  we both did 15 sit ups each.

Finally we did 10 star jumps and we finished doing fitness Damani and Me, we felt so challenging because it was a little frustrating but we still did the fitness.

Pixlr Art

Yesterday I drew a Limo because I went inside a limo in the holidays and it was super fun and the music was so loud and it was a little bit hot inside the limo. I went with skids and a couple of my friends. It was so fun.

Japan Typhoon

Me and my friend Damani from my class we made a Google slide and it is about the Japan Typhoon and I felt so sad for the people in Japan because there was a Typhoon and 2 million people were asked to evacuate there houses because the Typhoon was near them and if the Typhoon comes to there houses there will be a big incident.

Cancer

Today and Loise from my class, we made a google slide and it was all about cancer and how we can save ourselves from cancer and what does cancer mean and we wrote all all of the cancer's in the world. Cancer means it is the name given to a collection of related diseases. In all types of cancer, some of the body's cells begin to divide without stopping and spread into surrounding tissues. Many cancers form solid tumors, which are masses of tissue. Cancers of the blood, such as leukemias, generally do not form solid tumors.

Friends !!

I am writing about my friends. I like to play with them at school at lunch time and morning tea. We play lots of different games like tag and we sometimes like to colour and draw outside in the seniors and under a big tree. We sometimes go on the park and tell some stories. My friends names are Estalina, Sunita, Eloida, Jessie, Cassia, Ilasie, Pippa and Damani. Me and Sunita were friends since we were in Preschool and she is still my best friend.

The Best things I like about my Teacher!

What I like about my teacher is that she is very kind and helpful. She cares about my learning and everything. She is sometimes strict because she wants me to learn and get better. She teaches me Maths, Writing, Reading and Inquiry. My teacher is the best person in the world. 

School

When it was the first day of school, it was a sunny day. Everyone was here and I was so excited to see what class I was in and who my teacher was. When our priceable called out what class we were in I was in Room 8 and my teacher was Mrs Kumar and she was so kind to us when we went in class all the tables were separate and Mrs Kumar decided to put all the tables in a group of four and my group was so kind and we worked together. Then it was Term 2 and I moved to a different group and they were also kind and very helpful because they help me and I help them. Then it was Term 3 and I moved to another group and it was in the left corner and they were super helpful and respectful.
