Term 4 Reflection 2012

This term our topic has been Toy Story. I have been learning about toys and how to make them. I really like this term because it is about toys and we can research out favourite toys and things that’s got to do with toys. One day we had to start on our favourite toy writing.

We  had to remember what toy we had when we were little. I had a big brown bear called Chumb chumb I also had a teddy bear girl called Kathy. I always used to take my toys where ever I went. This term has been a good term to me and I wish Toy Story was always the topic.

Mrs Lagitupu said that we have to make a toy for someone. I made a pillow, I know that a pillow is not a toy but I had to do something so you can play with it. I already started on my toy for my friend, my friends Mary-I and Caroline are doing a pillow as well. The start of this term is the best Topic ever.

Tamaki Tech

Hook: Yay! we finally left to go all the way to Tamaki College for tech.

Every Tuesday’s the year 7s go to tech at Tamaki college. When the first bell rings we have to get ready in the Street by the doors. Then two of the teachers will take us down to Tamaki College so we can go to our classes and get working.

As I was walking with all the year 7s all I could hear was yelling and shouting.
When we walked through the Tamaki gates we had to go to our classes and I was in electronics. I would always walk with Caroline and Alexandria to our electronic class. Then Mr Maholecha just kept talking and talking and it was time to go back to school...... But it was fun at tech....

Manaiakalani Film Fest

As I walked through the theatre doors I was so amazed because there was a huge screen.

On Wednesday the whole of Pt England School went to Hoyts in Sylvia Park for the Manaiakalani Film Festival. First we went to the bus outside our school. As I walked through the door I was so excited to watch the movies that was set for all of us.

I saw lot’s of schools sitting and waiting for everyone to get in and start the show. I went up to sit next to my friends on the second to last row, my class was in the other row but Mary-I and I went to sit with Room 22.

Finally this movie that I really liked came up. It was ‘One Direction’ by Tamaki College and Pt England. It was really funny and cool it was about they sang and they grew older and older then they turned old that was the part that was really funny.

Then there was another movie that was cool and it was the Test by Room 18 I thought there movie was funny and awesome. As the day went on it was time to go back to school
and that was the end of the day and that was my favourite movies....

Rainbow's end Log Flume

On Friday my mum, brother, cousin and I went to Rainbow’s end for my birthday.
My birthday was on Monday but we got it over and done with, so we don’t have to do it next week. Anyway we got ready to shoot off to rainbow’s end.
As we got there I saw only a little bit of cars out by the parking, so I thought it was just us.

But as soon as I walked through the entrence there were lot’s of people but the line’s by the rides were not that long. First we went on the Log Flume there were like five people in front of us. The log came down the slide. My brother, cousin and I went into the log and I was in the middle my cousin was at the back and my brother was at the front because he wanted to get wet.   

We went into a dark tunnell, my brother was moaning and moaning about the log because it was going really slow. There were three white boys in front of us and that is why we were going slow because we had to wait for the boys to go down already.
When I looked to my left I saw some elfs fishing but it was fake people.
I also saw a elf that was the king of the elf world, he was singing with a bird on top of his arm.

Finally we got to the part where we got to go down fast as. The people in front of us said “Bye Bye” then I waved to them, they were nearly got to were the slide was.
Then finally it was our turn to go down the slide I was really scared because I have’nt been on the log flume in ages.

We went down the flume and we all were screaming hard out then we got to the end we had to wait to get off and it was the next person’s turn to go on. Then we went to the next activity....

My Favourite Toy

My favourite toy would have to be a big brown bear, because I’ve had him since I was really young, my auntie gave him to me.
It’s name is Chumb Chumb, when I go to bed I some times bring it to bed with me when ever I need something to cuddle.

When I woke up he was there right next to me.
He had a great big smile on his face and it made me happy to see that smile face. I would take him ever where with me.

As the years went by and finally my birthday came, my mum got me another bear but it had a red big heart on it.
I told my mum I already had a bear, but she didn’t care.

So I got my Chumb Chumb and he made a friend called Kathy the bear.
On a hot day Chumb Chumb and Kathy came to the park with my brother, mum and I.
I played with them on the slide and swings and even played with them on the grass.

After playing at the park with my teddy bears, we walked home.
But before I put my teddy bears away we had lunch in the kitchen.
As I was growing older my thought that we should get rid of your teddy bears now, I didn’t really want to get rid of it I think.

So I went took all my teddy bears and went to the trash black bag and put it in there.
My mum took and through them in the red bed so when the rubbish truck comes they can take the black bag.
I never saw those teddy bears ever again, but I still miss my Chumb Chumb and Kathy the bears and still do.
