  • I found it difficult to write the facts because I don't know a lot about St Patrick.
  • I enjoyed creating the poster because it was so fun.

  • Next time I would change nothing because I think it fine how it is.

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!

40 days of Lent



I was learning about lent because we have to get closer to god.

I found it difficult to remove the background because I had to take heaps of photos.

I enjoyed creating the slides because it was actually fun.

Next time I would change what I am giving up because I think there are some other really good ones.

Waste Free Wednesday



Today I was learning about waste-free Wednesday because we need to learn to stop polluting.

I found it difficult to choose how I should display the slides because there was so many different ways of displaying it.

I enjoyed putting the slides together Because after I knew how to display my slides it was actually fun.

Next time I would change nothing because I don't think I could think of a different way of presenting my slide.

Sea Week



I was learning about sea animals because we need to take better care of our sea animals and try not to pollute our oceans.

I found it difficult to write what I learnt because I already know so much about turtles.

I enjoyed designing the slides because it was so fun and I can put so much detail onto them.

Next time I would change what subject I would be writing about because I want to know more about different sea animals.
