Athletics

This week we had athletics. We did high jump (optional), long jump , sprints, ball throw. I had a lot of fun doing the rotations. My favorite one was long jump. Here is a picture of sprints.

Unexpected Visitor

Today we had a unexpected visitor and it was Meng Foon the mayor of Gisborne. He came in because he didn't know that we had cancelled our open day at the Hamunatua stream. We told him about what we had been doing in our groups. My group told him why we had planted harakeke under the bridge. We planted harakeke because if any one fell of their bike they wouldn't fall in the river instead they would fall on the flax bush. This is a photo of my class with Meng Foon.

My Speech

For the last 2 weeks in room 1 we have been writing our speeches. This week we have been sharing them. I was really nervous to share mine. After the whole class shares their speeches some of us go to the semi finals and then the finals. Here is my speech topic.

Holiday Slow Write

     After the holiday room 1 wrote a slow write about what they did in the holiday. First we shared the main thing that we did with a buddy. Next we did a draft and then we published it onto our blogs.
Here is mine, I hope you enjoy

Mahia Fun

       "Woohoo!" I feel happy that we're finally here.

I could taste the salty air as I walked down a path that leads to the beach.

I could hear waves crashing. Quickly I ran towards the water.

“Whats for lunch?”my sister asked. Although it was a little windy, I was still having fun.

The shiny, glimmering, blue sea looked beautiful. Why is it that we have to leave so soon?

I had such a fun time “Yay!!!”
