Big Foot Bike Skills🚲

 Big Foot Bike Skills🚲

Salaam everybody. Today I am going to tell you and blog about bike skills. On Tuesday 24th November we were lucky to have two sessions of bike skills. Our coaches were Ella and John. We had to wear or raincoats because it was raining. The other two classes had Holly and Shelly. We played a game calle the box game. I was so close to winning but then the head,Shoulders,Knees,And toes,knees and toes was hard on the bike. 

I accidentally put my foot on the ground and then I was out. We learned how to put our hand out to stop so when drivers are driving they know that we are doing a signal for them to stop. We learned what to wear when we are riding a bike. We had to wear a vest so that at night when drivers are driving the grey strips on the vest reflect. We had so much fun in those two sessions. We could change gears on our bikes. On my bike the gears I had were 8,6,3,1. We did bike skills to learn how to ride a bike.

Here are some photos of the day

Skateboarding🛹

Skateboarding🛹 

Do you like skateboarding? Salaam everybody today I am going to tell you and blog about skateboarding. We did skateboarding with our 2 coaches Ben and Lawrence. We were lucky to have 2 sessions. We learnt about crab walk, Tick tacks, Front side Back side, And playing whats up Mr Wolf. At the start I felt nervous but then throughout the lesson I got the hang of it. My favourite skill was probably the crab walk. I also liked the game whats up Mr Wolf. 

I found it challenging when my skateboard kept on rolling away. I gained confidence and learnt skills. I found it tricky on the concrete. We were split in to 2 groups with either Ben, or either Lawrence. I was with Ben. I also liked trying out some cool moves. We also got free time to go on the ramps and try out the moves they taught us. I was kind of enjoying skateboarding. The thing that was good about the lesson was when I got to try new moves that I hadn't tried before.

The thing I also found tricky was when people had accidents. After this skateboard lesson I want to try some new moves next time. I am excited to found out the new moves when they come back for our new lesson. I was deciding to ask my parents to buy me one for my birthday, So I can go ride it at the park.

🌊Production!🌊

🌊 Production!🌊

Salaam everybody. Today I am gong to blog about our school production for this year. Our school production was called Jasmine and Aladdin. We spent 13 weeks practicing rehersals. On Monday the year 5/6's went to Waikowhai Intermediate to go and practice the production in their hall. We used the props to practice. The backstage crew went in the car while the rest walked.

On Tuesday the whole school went to Waikowhai Intermediate so that they could show their dances. We had a dress rehersal on Wednesday when Waikowhai Intermediate and Hay Park School came. They came to see our Production and be the audience. The rehearsels were fun.

On Wednesday and Thursday night our parents came to see our show and on Friday morning our parents came  to see our  show in the morning. At the end our teacher took a video of us doing the finaly dance. We do productions for fun and also so we know what we are scared of and what we are not scared of. Also we do them so we can go on stage and see if we can perform in front of a proper audience.

Here are some photos and a video

Wonder Project Final flight🚀

Wonder Project Final Flight🚀

Salaam everybody. Today I am going to tell you and blog about our final fights for the wonder project.  My group called  D.A.J.A. Crew made a rocket that we had to fly on the launcher. Before we flew our rockets we had to try to add more detail to add more weight to our rocket. Me and my crew added some magnets, a nose cone, and some rainbow string around the nose cone. 

Our crew had different jobs;

  • Dev had the job to be the chief scientist so he was wearing a yellow vest
  • Ayana was the team captain so she was not wearing a vest. 
  • Jacob was the chief engineer so he was wearing a blue vest.
  •  I was the chief safety officer so I was wearing a pink vest. 

Dev had the job to pump. Jacob had the job to blast the rocket off. I had the job to check if the pumping pressure that we blast the rocket off on was on zero. Ayana was the team captain so she had to record how far our rocket went. When the rocket was ready to launch we had to put water in the rocket. Our group put in 250mls. Also when we were done pumping with pressure we counted down from 10 till 0 and then we blasted off the rocket. 

Our rocket went 16.6 metres. If our group would change something from our rocket we would change the magnets we put on that gave the rocket a bit more weight.                                            

Here are some pictures of the rocket blasting days. In this picture Jacob was away so Ayana wore his vest. Our rocket is in my hand.

Basket Ball🏀🏀

Basket Ball
Salaam Everybody. Today I am going to tell and blog about Basket Ball. On Wednesdays our 2 coaches Ronan and Mikey come in and teach us Basketball. We learned how to dribble in our first lesson and also played a game called the line game. In the game we had to stand on the line and we had to try to tag people without getting out. In our second lesson we learned how to shoot in the hoops and learned how to do layups. At the end we played number Basketball. We had team 1 and team 2. I was in team 1. Unfortunately team 2 won but I was still happy for them. Ronan and Mikey tried to trick us by saying that they had candy but if we won they will give us but we lost so we didn't get candy . I shot the ball in the hoop 10 times.

FIlm Festival September 2020

Salaam everybody. Today I am going to blog and  tell you about the Film Festival. In Term 2 we started doing the Film Festival. In our School we had 4 groups who were doing the Film Festival. We had to first of all make our storyboard scene and our lines so we could know what we were going to say. We had a theme that we had to focus on and that was kindness. Last year the theme was heroes. At the end of the Film Festival the teacher chooses 2 Film's to be chosen in the cinemas at ST LUKES mall. On Wednesday the 14th of October the film's will be on at the cinemas. We used Ipads to fim our movie. 🎥
