Surf to Turf

On the 28th the senior syndicate had our challenging Surf to Turf, Surf to Turf is when we run 5km from the Waimak to our Belfast school field. We ran a track from next to the Waimak down the main road and to the rugby club rooms driveway. 

Once we ran up the driveway we had to complete a set of challenges the first one was 1 minuter plank hold then chicken wire where we commando crawled under string. Then we had to 50 sit ups and then roll a tyre through cones and then run to the finish line. Once we passed the finish line we got to have a juice either a berry or cola, I got a cola one it was really refreshing!!

  After a decent half and hour a fire truck showed up, the firemen and women tied ropes to the front of the truck and we pulled from the end of the driveway to the top. Then they grabbed the hose out and wet everyone, even the rest of the school.  After the fire truck we got a sausage sizzle from the BCN as afternoon tea.

 Before we did surf to turf we had six weeks of training we would have a Tuesday morning training at 7:00am till 8:30am with Miss Wing and then we would have breakfast at the BCN, most of the time we would have cereal and hot chocolate but one lucky day Matua George made 100's of pancakes. He made noramal white chocolate pancakes chocolate pancake blueberry pancakes which were my favourite I had two. We also had practice after school on a Thursday till 4:00pm I couldn't go because I had dance. 

I really enjoyed Surf to Turf, it should become an annual thing. I bet all the younger students would have a blast and enjoy it! If I was still at school I would love to do it for the years to come!

Chapter 51 of 'The Best Birthday Ever!'   Of Georgia's journey! 

Chapter 51.

As she twisted and squirmed, her hair flipped up like a broom on top of her head.  She had PANIC written all over her rusted face she  screamed louder than 10000000, 0000000000 seagulls.  Little did she know that...............She was falling down the rabbit hole into Wonderland! 

She plumeted down, like a rocket decending back to earth. She landed all twisted on a field of grass. Or what she thought was grass....... It was actually, green apple liqorice. "Tooooooo Bbbadddd I Cccaaaaant eaaat itttttt." Georgia said as she was falling unconcious from her sudden experience. 

She was drenched in her own slobbery zombie drool. She could kind of see, it was really fuzzy. But...........

She saw a blurry  image, she thought she was hilousinating she thought she saw two ginormoous cards, a 2 of spades  and a 3 of hearts.  Georgia finally fully woke up. The cards were carrying her by her tiny bony arms. Her short uneven legs who could be mistaken for mishapen pencils weren't even touching the delicous green apple grass.  They were taking her.........  To the QUEEN of hearts!  

She walked up the sour patches steps into the caramal timtam throne room, her majesty Queen Georgia,  QUEEN of hearts! Was waiting for her......... 

"Your Majesty, we found this girl on the forbiddon field." Said the 3 of hearts. "What should we do with this rotton bag of  filth?" said the 2 of spades. The queen was staring into Georgias scared eyes. She didn't say a word. All of a asudden she stood up and walked towards Georgia who was kneeling on the red liqorice carpet. "What tis your name?" Said the queen. "Ahhhhh" "Georgia, your MaJeStY.....". "WHAT!!!!!!!".  

"THERE IS ONLY ROOM FOR ONE GEORGIA IN WONDERLAND, AND IT"S MEEEEEE!" Said the furocious queen! "What, I'm so sorry. Please dont hurt me!!!!!" said Georgia. "You will PAY!!!". Said the queen. "OFF WITH HER HEAD!!!" 🔪  "Fetch me one of the chefs knifes, as sharp as a zillion shards of glass 2 of spades". 

As bloood splatters all over the destroyed caramal timtams. Georgias blood made its way onto the Queens unforgettable face, she lifted her left hand and wiped the blood off with a smack. Still it stained her goregous antique doll face. "Dispose of her to my pets" said the queen. "Which ones your majesty?". Said the 3 of hearts. "Feed her to the crocs".......................

My Manaiakalani Blog Profile

This week with Sharon for Manaiakalani  we have been focusing on making blog profiles. We had to include key things about ourselves, etc. Our hobbies, what we like to do in our spare time, our favourite colour or food. I chose to do stuff about my family and my cultural background. I obviously mentioned my friends, my hobbies at the end and I even included what I want to be when I'm older.  The photo at the bottom of my profile is a photo of me and my best friend Georgia B, the one on the left is obviously with my !AMAZING! Mum.

Chapter 50 of 'The Best Birthday Ever'!  Of Georgia's journey!

Chapter 50.

A lonely girl stared into her soul, through the mirror left in the attic of her place she called a home. She sat there with her hair in little plaites swinging below her shoulders. You see today was her birthday and she stared into the mirrors face and wished for the best birthday in the world! Little did she know that her wish would come true........ She turned her head is despair once she had made her wish, she sagged her back and walked like a zombie to the stairs. She thumped down! She fell onto her couch and when she sat dust poured out of the cushions. She didn't care a single bit.

 She had given up hope. Of having one single birthday. But she forced herself to block everything out, she tried her very best. But........ There was a trumpet echoing through the stairs coming from the attic. The promised herself to not get distracted and be misirable for ever. But, what could she do. It was like she was metal and a magnet was in the attic pulling her into the hole to be swallowed. She was being pulled, she had no control of what would happen to her once she entered the attic. She was squirming and grabbing everything she could to stop herself from going into the attic. 

Panicked! She screamed at the top of her lungs. But everyone she had ever loved was gone, she had no one....  When she unwantingly got up in the attic, with her hair all frizzy like when you rub your hair on a balloon. She had looked and the mirror and saw a disturbing image clouding its face of relection. It was her. She was wearing a dress that would of cost millions in her mind and gorgous makeup and a pretty pink party hat with a little yellow ribbon tying it all together. She. Had no words. She touched the mirrors face and........ 

Kereru DLO

For this week in the Kereru group we had free reign. We could chose to not use the task board or just finish off our book, 'Pig Heart Boy'. I chose to do the task board, we had to find out facts on Malorie Blackman, the author of 'Pig Heart Boy'.   My first thought of the author was that  she was white not black just becuase it was based in England.  I know thats bad to think but that was my immediate response to the first chapter of  the book. 

My Star Art!😍

This week we started to make these star art pictures. We had to colour in a star template  section by section. I did heaps of patterns with bright colours to make my star look really cool! I asked some of my friends Georgia B, Carma, Archie and lucas why they thought I was a star. I really appreciated the nice things they said about me, I couldn't ask for a better group of friends!😇❤👍 

Here are the things you need to make this:

. Black square peice of paper 30cm by 30cm

. A silver gold or bronze vivid to draw with 

. A star template with lines to fold

. A peice of white paper and pen to write with

.  Coloured felts and pencils

. Coloured chalk

. A great attitude!!!!!!!!

Here are the instructions on how to make this:

1. Grab your peice of paper and start your sentence off with   "I am a star because".

2. Write about 20 sentences starting with that and ask your friends why they think your a star.

3. Grab your peice of black paper 30cm by 30cm and grab your coloured and folded star and place it onto the black peice of paper in the center and draw around it lightly with a pencil. 

4. Take away the star and grab your silver bronze or gold vivid and write out all your "I am a star because".

5. Once you are done writing them out grab a bunch of paper and stuff up your star and glue it down where you drew your outline.

6. If you want you can grab some coloured chalk and go around the outside and smudge it to look like a coloured boarder, or you can draw around the star and smudge it so it looks like a shooting star!😆

7. Get it to look like you want it to and put it up on the wall if you want!

8. ENJOY!😇🙌👍
