Christchurch Earthquake

It started with a big BANG, then crash landing on the ground was a big massive rock. After that there came a lot of after shocks which left disturbed buildings crashing down, leaving a big mess in the middle of the road, and making the cars crash.

Seeing people stuck in buildings that were crashing down was devastating to watch. All the people who are trying to save them are trying their best. As we get to the church, that was up for a lot of years, had been completely smashed into pieces of stone.

Tamaki Tech

All of the year 7/8 kids went down to Tamaki College for technology classes. As we walked down to Tamaki college one at a time, me and Tyla was walking and talking at the same time.

When we walked past, all the Tamaki College kids were getting smart. When we got inside to our station this lady magically appeared from the back. She said to wash our hands and put on a apron, then find a kitchen to stand next to and wait. Then she started talking about the rules.

By the way I'm in the food tech. When she was talking she said her name was Ms Heka. When she said we were going to make a some sticky buns I thought she was kidding. But in the end she wasn't. When she pulled out all the ingredients she said one at a time come and get your stuff you need and go back to your station. But she said to decide with your partners who was going to be the washer and dryer and packer awayer. So we decided.
I was the was the dryer.

As my friends from another class walked to their station I was wondering where they were going. They might be going to Electronics, wood, graphics or science.
Before we got ready to make our sticky buns the person who was washing the dishes had to go and get our trolley filled with all the kitchen stuff we needed. Me and Tyla and the other people in our group worked togther and made our lovely sticky buns. It wasn't that hard to make It.

My Holiday Highlight

Well it all started on the 5th of February 2011. Me and my family went to watch this touch team called Tamaki College. The touch team was playing at Grey Lynn park.

As we arrived the teams were just about to play. Tamaki College was down one player, so my brothers girlfriend had to jump in and play for the team. It was the most funny game
I have been to. It was a mixed team of girls and boys. On the 2nd game they played, there was this boy that kept pushing all the players on the Tamaki College team. All the people
on the side line was telling them to push him back. He was even pushing the girls. The school he came from was called Mt Albert. I think that team Mt Albert is the name. I think it is. I’m pretty sure that’s the name. Well let’s get on with the story.

As It’s getting to the last half hour, Tamaki was in the lead. Mt Albert’s got the ball and they are going to score but here comes along a member of the Tamaki College team and tags the person , who has the ball. She gets him and then the games OVER!! But the people of Mt Albert team
was mad especially the boy with the ball. He got the ball and chucked it on the ground
and went to his side of the field. When the game was finished they all shook hands
and then they went down the hill to their next game. We left to go home.

On the way home we got some peaches. It was me and my auntie who got those peaches, and then we started eating all of them one at a time. They were so nice so we got some more. So me and my auntie was eating them on the way home and never shared it at all to my uncle and cousin. They were getting smart to us so we gave some to them.

Long Ago

Well I have just finished my one and only MTV movie.Staring Me, Selina L and Tyla.

The song that we are singing is Long Ago, performed by the Herbs.

Cross Country for 2010

As I woke up I cringed' because I knew we ere having a team Cross Country. but I still got out of bed and walked to school reluctantly

In the cold and raining weather, surely it would be postponed in

this weather.

“No” our race is about to begin. The ten year old girls are starting to line up, and I can feel butterflies are starting to enter my body. They have come because I am so nervous. I’m panicking, my breath is coming hard I can’t stand to come last.

Right on cue Said “Mr Burt” as we lined up to go and race.

I was scared on your marks get set go. When I sore the other

Competitors spurting down the track. I through I was going to lose.

Half way around the field my energy drained out.

As we just gone out the gate all the spongy, watery, gluey,

And slimy mud went through my fingers as I slept and “splash”

I still got up and kept going until the very end. I can hear people cheering other people on. I looked up and saw Ala crossing the finish line and then Selena.I was like I need to get to the finish too,

I said in my head ( Champions never give up).

When I zoomed past lot’s of people I said in my head(yes I did it.)I know I didn’t come first or second but unless I crossed the finish line. As people were cheering me on and other people on, I just said in a tired, Trembling voice I have finally done it.

When I sat down on the grass, I felt tired. But I had a rest but my heart was still pounding. I felt worn down down. But when Mr Barks said Eight year old girls to the start line all the girls went. I asked mr Barks can I run again, I had confidence to run after I had

had rest to run with the eight year old girls.My leg weren’t tired enough.But Mr barks said “no”.

Cool Kiwis

It’s not that they are all small.The smallest is the little spotted kiwi and it is smaller then a rugby ball.

The biggest kiwi is about 45 cm tall and as big a rugby ball.

Female kiwis are larger then male kiwis.

The biggest kiwi is about 45cm tall. It is about as big as a rugby ball. kiwis are or can grow to a certain size like 45cm of height. But as you must know that the kiwis name is The Great Spotted kiwi.

I suppose people wouldn’t call kiwis bright coloured, they only have brown rough plumage. A kiwi skin is so rough that it is not as smooth as another birds. Other birds have beautiful plumage, but kiwis don’t they only have brown dull plain feathers. The most ridiculous thing is their bill.

Did you know that a kiwi is a flightless bird. Well many people think that kiwis have no wings, but they do, they hide underneath there brown plain plumage.They also have a curved claw at the end of their wing. If a kiwi was ment to fly they will need to have a tail.

Did you know kiwis use their legs for digging their borrows and running away from their preys.

kiwis have strong island legs and feet. They can also

out run a average person.

Female kiwis lay their eggs in the borrows, the father kiwi sits on the eggs for 2 and half months. It takes 3 days for the baby kiwi to hatch, when the baby kiwi comes out it cuddles up to it’s fathers plumage. As soon as the kiwi is about 6 months old it can leave it’s borrow and travels by it’s own.

Most birds can glide through the air kiwis can’t. Some birds have nice coloured feathers, but kiwis don’t. There is even a birds that can swim under ice cold water kiwis can’t do that.

And there you have it. How could you resist a big fat, strong rugby player legged, flightless bird, which is ugly and drab?

If kiwis aren’t cool, then I don’t no what is!
