Rugby balls

Today I will be showing you my poem about rugby balls.It is what we did this morning at p.e.  Room one played with the basketball when we played with the rugby.  Anyway, I hope you enjoy my post about  balls.

Whizz!  A spinning spiral spinning round and round.  Not even near to touching the ground.

Flys through the air, although as heavy as a rock.It's smooth on the bottom and smooth on the top.

Slips through your hands not making a dent.  You need to make sure to keep your arms a little bit bent.

The little ball,  flies through the air.  Setting of a tiny FLARE.

Rugby  balls do not bounce.  Instead they sort of have more of a pounce.

They are not flat edged.  That is what I always said.

 If you are playing rugby you need to make it spin.  Make sure you you keep a smile on your chin.

Do not let it land in a hedge.There are the rules that I pledge.

B grade

B Grade

B GRADE  is one of my sports for the year.It is a festival that we practise for only every two years.I personally put myself in B grade this year because I am personally better than the lower grade,Called C grade.

In  The Hall we do B grade for all of lunch time,Practising for the coming event  called the gym festival. In it there is the vault,beam,bar and you can't forget the floor routine. I have the rhythmic gym thing that I have to go to because It is a gym competition so I have to do it so I get it in my head.

I hope my brothers and sisters get to do it because it is a great opportunity to try something new and experience what it is like , they only dot it every so often. If they do though good for them.I an talking about  b grade and rhythmical by the way.

 

 The big beach cleanup!!!

Today I am writing a blog post about something that happened a few days ago.  It is about the big beach cleanup.

 I hope that you enjoy my blog post.

It all started when the teacher was  talking and and asked us to get into a group of three.  I had some people in mind but then some other girls walked up and asked me to be in their team.  I didn't want to be rude so I said yes.  I wasn't in a group anyway.

We went outside to collect a bucket, but some other people bet us to them, so we asked the teacher if she had any other buckets.  She only had a worm bucket,  but I didn't complain.  We got in two lines and then headed for the beach.  We started of with a little pile of rubbish but then our pile started to grow.  My friend Dune found a post that said Dune restoration and said she was famous. We had a little giggle and then kept on moving. 

By the time we got to the surf club it was about brainfood time.  Everyone was tired from walking and also a little hungry,the teacher saw we were because we were all puffing for breath.  She gave us a rest for ten minutes.  Then we had to keep going.

We picked up 202 pieces of glass but then sadly had to wrap it up for the day. I was sad and I could tell my group was too.

I hope you enjoyed the blog post. 

 Year 5 week

BACK TO SCHOOL 2021

BACK TO SCHOOL 2021

 This year we have been visiting to the places in our pepeha.  We have been learning the stories that fit In with Hamanatua,Maungarua and Te Poho O Rawiri.

                                                         Our school pepeha

Hamanatua

Hamanatua is the stream in our pepeha.We left school to head to Hamanatua about 10.00.It was not that tiring but other kids thought it was pretty exhausting. We had brain food at the beach and stayed in the rusty shelter under the lookout.We squeezed through a gap in the wall because the part at the front was too tall to climb up. That is the Hamanatua trip.

Maungarua

Next, we walked up Maungarua.Yes it was tiring and my legs were aching like crazy. My shoes were too small and they were squeezing my toes till they started to get blisters. I didn't want to walk all the way to Maungarua and up it.When we got to the Maungarua, I immediately started too trudge up the mountain. We got up the mountain and the view was amazing!  But trust me, you do not want to walk up that hill.  You'd be toasted no matter the weather. Now, that is the story of walking up Maungaroa.                                                                                          

Moving On To Te Poho O Rawiri

 In week three we rode the bus to te poho o rawiri.We had to wait in the hot sun on the grass for a while before the guardians of te poho o rawiri welcomed us in.She told us some stories of the olden days when her grandmother was alive and did the role she did. ZShe taught us some songs, and that was te poho o rawiri.

What is a pepeha

A pepeha is a group of things your family is close too. The main parts of a pepeha is the mountain,river and in New Zealand your marea. Other things in a pepeha are things like your Mum and  Dad's name, last name and where in the world you live or come from.

 

Kapa Haka!

Kapa haka

E tiriki!Right know we are at the kapa haka festival Singing our first song as the first word sais ,E tiriki.At the beginning I was nervous but know I am so excited I can bearly wait.

Then the  next song took place and we sang our hearts out.THe kapa haka festival Is a time to celabrate the maori culture and all they do for us.I learnt that you can't have die in your hair because it makes fun of the maori culture because when they were around they didn't have hair dye.I feel sorry for maori because they didn't have hair dye so they couldn't eperience hair dye.

I was proud of WBS and I can not wait for the next syndacites to do there song and sing there best to the audiance.I am so excited for Ada to peform her show
