Guy Fawkes

                                            Guy Fawkes

‘Boom!’ Went the firework. Today was Guy Fawkes I was inside watching YouTube but my Mum, Dad and brother were outside lighting them. My brother came running in with his earmuffs on telling me it was loud, it was obviously loud because I could hear them from inside. I decided to go outside because they were going to do the sparklers when they lite them it looked so cool it was sort of like a star on a stick after that we decided to do the last firework ' KABOOM!' it was the biggest one yet when it was in the sky it was like a colourful bomb exploded which basically happened. 30 minutes later I just went to bed because I was bored.

Dear Dad

I am writing to you today to thank you for helping me when I was hurt in paintball and encouraging me in rock climbing, you have made some of my best memories with me.

One of my highlights this year was going down the flying fox for the first time. I really enjoyed zooming past all of the trees it looked super cool, but my favourite part was jumping off the platform at the start.

So thank you for Dad for giving up your precious time, to let me have the best time ever I really appreciate it. YOUR THE BEST!!

Thank you so much

Remembrance Flower

Today this week was all souls day so we made two remembrance flowers.

First time going down the hydro slide in Gisborne

 When your just a little kid the hydro slide looks a million miles high.

I was only 6 years old but my sister's 11. It didn't look scary to her because she is so tall compared to me. 

I thought I'll never be able to do it even if I lived to be a trillion years old. I wouldn't even of done it if my sister didn't say she would give me some her lollies, so I decided to do it. 

So I was next in line for the hydro slide my body trembling but did it for the lollies. Sliding through the long winding slide, colours racing all around me, rocking side to side as I flip off my matt and landed on my back head first.

When I flew out the end I was so relieved because when your just a little kid the hydro slide looks a million miles high.

Mood Rings

 Mood Rings change different colours depending on your mood the colours are

Violet happy/romantic

Blue Calm/relaxed

Green natural

Yellow tense/excited

Brown nervous/anxious

Mood rings featured fake gemstones made by glass or quartz. The glass/quartz 'stones' were mostly hollow shells filled with liquid crystals. these special crystals were thermochromic which means they would change colour in response to changes to the temperature in your body or the air.

these are the three best football players in the world Football. 

Goalies, strikers, wingers and defenders, but the question is who is best of the best. Today I will tell you who the three best football players. 

Firstly I going to tell you who the third-best football player is Pele. I know what your thinking whos Pele? If you don’t know who Pele is you’ll find out soon. The Brazilian football player started his career at only fifteen years old. he had been awarded many awards and world titles and the only football player to have won 3 world cups. If you still don’t know who Pele is there’s a whole about that you could go watch. 

Furthermore, who is the second-best football player in the world? Diego Maradona, although he cheated in the 1986 world cup and handballed into the goal wich stopped England from winning, he is still one of the most famous football players in the world. Maradona holds the record for the most number of fouls in a world cup, during the 1986 world cup in Mexico he fouled 53 times. He also holds the record of the most fouls suffered in one game in a game, when Italy fouled him 23 times in 1982. 

 Now I will tell you the best football player in the whole entire world. Who is it? Messi of course if you don’t know who he is I can see some facts about him. Messi was born on 24 June 1987. He spent his whole entire professional career with Barcelona where he has won a club record of 33 trophies, including ten la Liga, four UEFA champions league titles and six Copas del ray. He’s also won six balondoors.    

In conclusion, I have told you facts about the three best football players in the whole entire world, Messi, Maradona and Pele.

You can use computers for lots of things all these things are done by
computer programs. But what is a computer program made from?
Computer programs are made from their own language called code.

The ANZAC Tree

through the video (the ANZAC tree) I have learnt that many families had to say goodbye to their friends and family and some never saw them again.

In wars, many people suffered and died, and they could never see their families ever again.

Many people's brothers, dads, friends and family went to war and not many came back.

EASTER

Easter time

At home

Steering at a screen

Together 

Eating chocolate

Remembering how Jesus died for us

Isolation Easter

This easter was probably the most boring easter I have ever had because we were in Isolation I called it Isolation easter all I did was eat chocolate, ride my bike I think the only fun thing I did was play fortnite with my friends because I can’t do anything else with my friends. But then one day we did something fun that wasn’t playing fortnite with my friends, my mum said that we should do an Easter egg hunt in our backyard but I didn’t want to do it but my brother and sister did, not long after that my sister came back inside with all of her eggs the only one that was still out there was my little brother but then he came stomping back inside and shouted ‘I only found 2 so far mum can you give me a hint’ he got his hint and came back in with all his eggs. Now the only fun thing to do is play fortnite with my friends because we have no more chocolate.

Easter traditions

For Christians, Easter is a  time to remember how Jesus died on the cross for us. but easter is celebrated differently in some countries. In France, they make giant omelettes, in Greece, they throw clay pots out of windows, in Finland children dress up as little easter witches and wish people well in exchange for treats.

I will include three main ideas	:)  :)  :)
I will conclude my writing with my opinion.	:)  :)  :)

Dear Reader, 

I wanted to tell you why I think that Zealandia should still be a continent

First, I think that Zealandia should be a continent, because it includes islands of New Zealand and New Caledonia and continents are ament to countries and different island emerged in them

Secondly, Zealandia is not completely extinct it just over flone with water and that doesn’t make it completely extinct.

Lastly, it had animals and every country/continent has animals New Zealand has animals, every place I know has animals. This is proof that Zealandia had animals. I would consider Zealandia as a continent because, if it had animals I think it should be approved as a continent Zealandia because every country/continent on earth has animals and I mean every single one.

Through this letter, I have shared my thoughts on why I think that Zealandia should be a continent again.

Term 1 2020 Goal setting

I found it easy to think about what I should do for my academic goal.

I found it hard to think of the things for the other goals.

I enjoyed posting this to my blog.

Next time I would change my background because I think it would look a bit better with a background.

swimming sports

It wasn't another boring old Monday. This Monday was different... It was swimming sport. Beep! I leapt into the crystal-clear water and took off like a bullet. There was no sign of anyone. I took a Gasping breath and then sore someone in the corner of my eye. So I kicked a little harder and I was already finished. Miss Hickling reached over and passed me a mini green block and said: “great job Corin you won the year 6 freestyle final”. “Year 6 butterfly final ready GO!” Splash! We all divided fearlessly into the crystal blue water. This time there was no sign of anyone all I could see was bubble bubbles and bubbles. When I finished the race the teachers said I won but it was quite close. “Year 6 backstroke final” I was so nervous I felt like I was going to poop myself my goggles were all fogged up I couldn't see a thing luckily I didn’t really need my goggles as much for this race because all you have to do is steer at the roof. They said I came first but I would have come second if my friend Logan touched the end but they said he didn’t and that he touched the lane. “Year 6 breath stroke finals GO!” I dived reluctantly into the warm water. I spend off like a great white shark and won! Next up was the house relay. First place was yellow house and second, was my house/blue house and the third was red. THE END!
