Number One Teacher

Miss Wyllie,
I'm happy that you're my teacher;
I enjoy each lesson you teach.
As my role model you inspire me
To dream and to work and to reach.

With your kindness you get my attention;
Every day you are planting a seed
Of curiosity and motivation
To know and to grow and succeed.

You help me fulfill my potential;
I'm thankful for all that you've done.
I admire you each day, and I just want to say,
As a teacher, you're number one!

By Joanna Fuchs

I like this poem because it says everything my teacher has to offer

Dental writing

You know those weird white things in your mouth? Well those are your teeth. So listen up alot of things can go wrong with your teeth, plaque is caused by eating lots of sugary foods such a lollies.

 The result in this Cavity's,Tooth Decay and sometimes tooth extractions and fillings. To prevent cavities and early tooth decay. You will need to brush your pearly whites.

Using a pea size of fluoride  toothpaste (Note babies should not use fluoride toothpaste). Brush for two minutes every night and morning. 

When you go to the dentist they may want to take an X-Ray of your teeth don't worry it doesn't hurt. 

Hopefully this has taught you how to take care of those pearly white.

Grand Eiffel Twin Tower!

Not too long ago now we did a Team building collaboration activity. 

This involved making a tower out of these materials: 3 pieces of card, 1 Metre of cello tape and 1 pair of scissors. This *may* sound easy but it was super hard!

The tallest tower would win. My group had to figure out how to make it tall and how to make it stand on its own.

Me,Oliver,Anthony and Rose had lots of trouble so we made a more of a structured tower rather than a tall one. We made the  Grand Eiffel Twin Tower!

Making it stand was super hard but the most easiest bit would have to be designing.

To collaborate we had to listen and communicate to each other which also meant we were good collaborators!

We may not have won but we sure learnt how to collaborate!

A Screaming hot day


Standing in the fresh grassy Field my lips touched the icy crispness of my water. The sweltering hotness of the pale sun covered me. The fresh grass smelt like it had a shower. 

I could see parents swarming their sweaty children. The Onion smelling BO lingered around me. The sound of cheering came closer.

My eyes burned as the fiery sun shone as if it was a volcano. The chirping of birds and cheering slowly died away.

Descriptive writing: War is over

"Knock Knock" "Who's there" It was a very bistfull and sunny day When WW1 was announced over. I was so excitied and happy my family who stayed home  had lost of emotions! My family are sure there brother was coming home! So that day i opened the door with a huge grin on my face and swety hands..... That moment. that ver moment i opened the door. There he was my beutiflu sun. We were all very crying like a waterfall with tears of joy! It was the best day ever everyone was so happy he was home! I was elated because he was home he was dusty and mucky we were all proud. it was the best day of our familys life the family was speechless he was home! Then together the family all said -"lest we forget" to all the fallen soilders.

Archibald Baxter

Some Room 15 students go and read in Room 14. We read a book in the school journal called - His Own war. This is a Non Fiction storey ( so its true) This book was about a Middle aged man called Archibald Baxter and his war. He was one of the patrons in WW1 who fought in his own way the way no  man would want to. It started off war was announced and thousands of men rushed to enlist. But the time came when they were still low on troops this was when Military Conscripted was introduced. This is when the government will send out letters to young men  in between the age of 20 and 40 one of these men was Archibald Baxter he was just 39 when he got this letter.....But Archi refused to fight this meant 84 days of prison. But after these 84 days he still refused. He refused to follow orders were uniforms and even handle a gun.This meant he would have to be tied to a pole in a farm for a week with no food and water his feet weren't allowed to touch the ground. When he was untied his hands were black but after that he still Refused to fight so he was put in the front line and suffered memory loss he went to hospital and went home after months so that meant Archibald won his war. 

King and Country

For reading we read a book called- King and Country. The meaning of king and country is - When the Soldiers went and fought in Gallipoli they would yell out '' FOR KING AND COUNTRY"  so they were fighting for their king and there country. This book was in the school Journal it was a non-fiction storey ( which means its true) . It was based on Maori not wanting to fight because the british took over their country but they had no choice but to fight.



Term 3 Reflection

Term 3 was a term with ups and downs, with challenging tasks and amazing events.


This term my most challenging task was the spelling bee test i qualified for. Sadly I didn't get to go to the real thing. This test was challenging because there were a lot of hard words. I am hoping I get into the spelling bee next year too!


I found the most successful event this term was speeches. I wrote my speech about france and the european culture. I was lucky enough to get into the speech semi finals. I am still waiting and practice my speech whilst
i wait i wait to go to the semi finals.


This term I most enjoyed our school production. I was lucky enough to get the wonderful part as the Queen. My partner in the school production was Old Mc Donald (Jack Murray). I had a blast at the school production.


As you can see term 3 did have its ups and downs but we worked through them as a team.
