Marine Reserves!

Talofa lava bloggers, 

This week we have been focusing on the ocean. Te Waka Ako have been reading about marine reserves. We had to read a lot of information during the last few weeks. At least it was very interesting to do and really fun when we were finding the answers to some questions. We had a slide of 9 pages to do with lots of activities that we had to complete. Having to complete all these slides in only a few weeks was a bit hard because there was lots of information. One of the slides included writing a blog post which is this one here that you are reading. I now know a lot of information about Marine reserves such as were they are and how you can protect them. I also no the other areas that are protected around us, I am now able to share my completed slide show of sea week work. I hope you enjoy my learning.  If you have some free time please leave a comment or read other posts of mine. 

Here is a link to my slideshow. 

Day without the year sixes

Kia Ora bloggers,

On the 17th of May the year sixes went to Spark Arena for a trip and the teachers went with them. So the year fives were  left here with Miss McGrath. When I got to school the year sixes had to eat something little or put something small in their pocket. I was jealous because I wanted to go to Spark Arena as well.

 The first thing we did was talk about our well being survey. Then we had to answer some questions from the well being survey. After that we walked around the room with some music. When the music stopped we had to find a buddy and tell them something that we are grateful for.  Something else we did was making fortune tellers with nice complements to our self or to others. Then we had to test them out on someone. Closer to the end of the day we did a complement circle. We had to say a nice complement to some one and then they had to say one to another person after. That was fun. When we had finished that the year sixes stared to arrive as we were finishing some of our work that needed to be finished. Anyway that was my day without the year sixes. If you have a day without a class or a group of students. Maybe you could write a blog post about what you did that day. Blog you later bloggers. Down below are some instructions of how to make one. There is also some pictures of mine finished.

Swimming at Cameron pools!

Talofa lava bloggers,

Since week 1 term 2 the seniors and middle school have been swimming at Cameron Pools on Tuesday and Thursday. The seniors got buddied up with a class to go to Cameron Pools in the bus together. At the pool the middles and the seniors split. The middles went into the Nan's pool and the seniors went into the big and quite deep pool. We use boards or no boards. Each time we swam down the lane in a different style of swimming. My swimming coach is really nice to my group. Swimming at Cameron pools is really fun. Something that I would like to achieve would be me free style and my mermaid swim. Some of the styles of swimming we did were; free style, stream line, dolphin dive, mermaid swim and others. I love Cameron Pools. I hope you love swimming as well. Thank you for looking at my blog post. If you had any more free time could you please look my other posts or maybe even post a comment. Blog you later.
