trees for survival

We understand that 40% of a country is meant to be covered in trees. But in 2012 Auckland was covered 23.8% of foresters.

There are more houses, furniture and at school the people who make paper need trees to make notices in 2017. But we have a problem, The problem is we need more houses because people have no homes and if more homes you will have less trees.

New Zealand is known as the green land because we have the most trees out of some countries. So if you plant a little tree and put it in your house you get oxygen for free and the tree will suck up co2.

second athletics story


One bright sunny morning I woke up still in my bed then I just remembered it was Athletics I jumped out of my bed saying “it’s Athletics it’s Athletics”.


Athletics is when people have races it goes little students too big students. We all assembled on the dots for the start of Athletics. We all leasend to the principal then we had to go around the bike track yelling our chants. I saw my mum and dad with my cousins and papa and aunty.


First the 8 and 9 year olds went to shot pot the ball was very heavy I did not throw it that far.


Second we did shot pot we went to high jump I nearly jumped over it but I just touched it then it fall to the ground.


Third we did high jump we went to long jump I jumped very far so I made it in the finals I came 3rd in the finals.


Last we did long jump we went to disktest I was the last one to throw I made it very far out of the 4 last people.


When we got to our tents the 5, 6 and some 3 and 4 year olds had races first. After their race 7, 8 year olds then had races me and Michael-L tied with each other.


Then it was the older students like my brother demetrius he came second I think.


Then the bell rang for us to have a break I went to my family and had some food I had some popcorn and some chips. Then the bell rang again so we had to go back to our tents we had to do a 75 meter race it was in the same order as the first 50 meter race but in the 75 meter race I came second in that race.


After that race we got to have another break I had some more popcorn and chips then I had tim to play with my cousins I was chasing my baby cousin around the park.




Then we had to go back to our tents  again  to do the 400 meter race it were only the people who made it into the rileys I was coming third at the start then I past one then when I got to my family I past him then my baby cousin said “ run for your life”. I just made it past the finish line before the others.

One dark night my papa and Aunty took me to my papa's golf club they said there will be fireworks there. So I went into the truck and waited for my cousins to come in the truck. When they came in my papa and Aunty hopped into the truck my papa drove.
It was a long drive but we finally got there in time for the fireworks to happen my mum came too with my brother and sister.

I told my mum thats cool”. Then after all that booming we had to go home. At home we had our own we used them all it was cool altogether. After that we went sleep.

artists expression through colors

WALT find a subject in nature that inspires me.
My subject is flowers. I am inspired by flowers because they they look very pretty together. Flowers of different kind represent my personality because I like how my friends from different backgrounds learn happily from each other. I have chosen the color yellow and blue for my background because yellow represents the flowers swinging happily side to side on sunny day. I am inspired by the flowers because when i'm near them I feel happy.Image result for colorful flowers clip art

How power comes to our homes

Power is made by water. This kind of power is known as hydropower. Water is stored in the dam from the rivers. This water is used to make the turbines spin. when the water spins very fast then power is produced. This power is then supplied through the transmitters. transmitters are big cables that carry power to the transformers. The transformers then supply power to the street poles and from there we get power into our homes. This is how power comes to our homes.

conductors and insulators

Conductors are elements through which charge can travel. You can get electrocuted if you have touch things through which charge is travelling.

Insulators are things that do not allow the charge to pass through.

At the beach

The sun glitters on the fresh deep water.  large big palm leaves were swaying side to side in the gentle breeze. The huge waves were slapping on the big rocks. The sand was squishing between my toes.I could hear the birds tweeting on the big long trees. The chilly wind advancing from the  deep blue water made me shiver and I pulled on my jacket over me.

Information report

Break fast is the most important meal of the day. Do you know why? Because it gives us energy for the day and if you don't have breakfast you will not have any  energy. It's like a car without any fuel and you know what happens if you have no fuel you don’t go. Breakfast also helps your brain wake up. If you skip your breakfast your brain will stay asleep.

If you have junk food like a doughnut, its fuel but its does not last long. Instead it will fill your stomach with sugar and fats. These are not good for you because the sugar will rush to your brain and  make you not think and learn.

If you have the same thing every day you will not get other nutrients you will get the same nutrients every day. If you don’t have the same breakfast every day you will have lots of nutrients. So it's important to include the 4 major food groups in your breakfast. The 4 major food groups are proteins, fruit and vegetables, bread and cereal milk and milk products. The fifth food group is fats and sugars. We should have the least of this group.

You should look at the labels before you buy it. If you don't it might be expired and it might have too much sugar.


It is important to have a healthy breakfast.
