Immersion Assembly

This morning on the 5th of May our school had an amazing immersion assembly. The prefects and some other helpers helped put up helium balloons in the hall. Mr Burt also ordered 100 little football to give out in assembly. The theme that the Pt England teachers came up with is 

I LIKE TO MOVE IT, MOVE IT.

As the students walked into the hall I could see there eye’s amazed by all the colours of balloons that were floating in the air. Levi, Isara and Mr Burt tied helium balloons to a little stuffed New York taxi. It took 16 balloons to lift the little stuffed taxi. It was a very exciting thing to watch.

Team 1 are going to the zoo tomorrow to learn about how the animals are kept in their cages and how they are fed. In immersion assembly the team 1 teachers were wearing animal masks. A movie was shown on the screen it showed all sorts of animals like, giraffe's, zebra's and monkey's. 

Team 2 are learning about flight. All of the team 2 teachers went on the stage and threw planes at the school, it was really fun to watch. Three of the teachers were dressed up as planes and one of them were dressed up as a pilot. 

Team 3 is learning about colours. The teachers were dressed up in different colours like green, white, black, yellow, red, and blue. They said that when a rainbow is formed it is because the sun shines through tiny little drops of rain and it makes all the colours. That is what form's a rainbow.

Team 4 is learning about how do things float on the water. A clip showed on the screen of a flat piece of wood floating in the water. They taught us that when you place a paper clip on water it will sink. I didn't know that until they told the school.

Finally Team 5 are learning about sound and how it works. The team 5 teachers went up the front and were holding instruments that no one had ever seen before. As they started to play them it didn't really sound right, until the movie was shown.

I can’t wait to learn about sounds this term!

How I get Ready for School

  How I get to Ready for School.

As I laid down in bed I felt the sun hit my face as my sister pulled the curtains. “Hurry up and go get ready, remember school starts at eight thirty” my sister said. “Hold up ” I said as I stretched my arms out. Flushing the toilet I went over to the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth. “Whats that smell” I thought to myself. I walked over to the kitchen and there it laid on the table, a PIE yus.

Munching the last pieces I hurried over to my bedroom to get ready for school. As soon as I finished putting my uniform on I remembered I had to make my lunch. “There we go I got a sandwich some crackers, fruit and a yogurt” I said. When I was about to walk to grab my shoes I saw that we didn’t have our bin out, I quickly ran to take our rubbish bin to the front. “Phewww” I said with exhaustion. Luckily I made just in time because the rubbish truck was right next to my neighbors house.

Just as I put on my shoes I looked over at the time, “eight o’clock I better hurry up” I said nervously. I power walked to the kitchen grabbed my lunch and stuffed it in my bag, bursted out the door and ran to school with my sister. RING RING RING, my sister and I just made it in time for school.

“It’s nice to see you Uili” Miss Paget said. “Good Morning” I said with excitement.

As I sat down on my desk I looked over at the clock and it was 8:30.
