RWC OPENING

I was on the computer and then I looked out the window and I saw the fireworks and I forgot that the RWC was on tonight and then I asked my mum and she said "yep tonight" and I said "can we go and see." Then my auntie rang up at my house and she told us that my uncle was on the mod away and he stop the traffic to watch the fireworks.

As I was getting ready to go and watch the fireworks my mum told me to harry so we can see the fireworks. When we got on the mod away and I saw my family in the middle and then my mum told me to run to them so she can park her car next to them.

When I saw it I was so amazed and then I got my mum's phone and then I was videoing the fireworks. I missed half of it and so we had to go back home and do dinner we had a late dinner because I was at my Nana's house to look after her but I stand there till 3.00 o,clock. I hope I see fireworks at the next RWC and that was cool.

Badminton

These couple of weeks we were learning about Badminton with this lady called Loreen. She has been telling us how to hold a Badminton Racket in your hand even a shuttle. So when Loreen stopped talking she told us to walk to a space were you can’t get hit with a Badminton Racket.
She showed us how to hit the shuttle so she told us. You have to put your racket toward your belly button then you have to put your thumb at the back of the racket then you carefully push it toward the shuttle then it goes flying up in the sky.

Then Loreen said “SHUTTLE” and so we had to keep our racket still and our shuttle still too. Then she told us to get in a circle and she put the bin in the mettle and she said “you have to try and get the shuttle in the bin 5 times.” And then she told us to get 5 shuttle then you have to take 5 steps back and Mr Somerville was taking step and I just followed him but he said “you have to take your owen step because these are my step and I have long leg that is why I am so far away.”

After that she told us to that she will not be here on the last day because another person was coming to teach us about Badminton and she was a NZ Badminton player and in my mind I was thinking that is gonna be fun. Then we had to leave because another class was there so we said “THANK YOU SO SO MUCH LOREEN.”

Room16 OneNews

On Tuesday 23 August Room 16 went on One News and another class from Pt England School. We were so excited to be on One News because some people were on TV for the first time. It is so sad because other schools are poor and our school is rich because we have Netbooks. We also found out from the news the other schools can't buy Netbooks because their Mum's or Dad's can't pay for it because they can't afford it. Click on the link that is highlighted.

My Emotions

This is a slide show to tell you about my emotions.

MOTAT

As I was picking three people to go with me down the Tactile Dome I was shaking well I was picking and my team was Mary, Zion, Eleva and me. So when we were walking to go down the dome it was dark in there I could not see any one it felt like it was just me in the Tactile dome. When we hopped in there we were sacred to go first and Mary stood up and said “I will go first then” so we stood back so she could go in first. So when she went in then Eleva then me and then Zion and we were touching and feeling the wools then the boys came in and so we followed the boys so Mary I let the boys be in the front of us. Finally we found a net so we climbed up it and then we had to feel the wools again because I had a feeling that we were nearly there because I saw a light and there was the door out. When every one came out the dome we left to go to Morrie Maze.

Bigger, Better, Faster, Stronger

This is what the whole class room did this week I hope you enjoy watching my slide show.

Ice-Skating

On Saturday it was my cousins birthday and she wanted to go to Paradice Ice-Skating. She was turning fourteen and her name was Jamie lee. When I woke up my mum said "harry get up so we can go early" so I got up and hopped in the shower and hopped out and got changed. My mum was starting the car up and she made us lunch to take to Ice-Skating. Me,mum,brother and my cousin Melanie hopped in the car and went straight to my uncle's house and they were just hoping in the car. When we left from my uncle's house and went to Botney's Ice-Skating. We waited for it to open up so we can pay to get in and finally it opened and we me and all of my cousin's walked in and my mum was coming in and she payed for us. I went in and at first it was really cold in there and I walked over by the skat's shop and got my skat's and sat down to put them on. When my little cousin's put there one's on we hopped on the ice and I slipped and I got really wet because I sat down to long. When I went to the side my mum was taking photos of me and my cousin Jamie lee and when she took a photo I fell down and when people went pass they laughed so when they laughed I started to laugh at myself. I went to the shop to bye a drink of water for me and my mum and after my drink of water was finish I went back on the ice to skate. When I went back on I had to get back off because we had to eat lunch and they were just making the ice smooth when we finished I ran back on the ice and I slipped on my back and it felt like some thing like coke split on the floor and it was slippery. Then when my mum told me to come to her I came and she said "come on we are going now because there is a BQ at your uncle's house" so I ran and sat on the chair and got my skate's off and when I took them off I fell off the chair and my family looked at me. Then we went to the car and went to the BQ.
