Dear Marais Viljoen

I felt that the white and the black people are the same may not be the same colours but can play the same there is nothing wrong with being black and there is nothing wrong with being white it is who we are and we can’t change that. They are the same they can play the same and everyone make mistakes no person on earth can be perfect everyone make mistakes so you can’t say that white people are much better than black people because they are not. every girl every boy black or white are all the same So I hope you  have heard what I said and hope you listen and say that white and black are the same there is no better one.

Sincerely

Lucas Mccrostie  

trip

On Monday 16th we went for a trip to the Museum and it was super fun! The first thing we did was learn about  Maori technology which was very interesting. Then we moved on to section where we got to cut wood and polish rocks and much more stuff. After we finished  we moved on  to lunch time. Me and my friends played infected and there was a big tree that everyone ran too.  It was really fun.  After we had eaten and played, we moved on to free time. Me and my group stared with the stuff back in the days like old fashion clothes there was a horse and a big bike I had a turn on the horse and the bike, The bike and was really cool because it had a big wheel and a small wheel after we had finished in that section we moved on too painting's and it was super cool seeing all the cool paintings. When we finished That section we moved on to the arctic section it was so cool because There was quizzes there and there was a cave and it would keep you as warm if you where surrounded by polar bear's which was fun I was really sad that we left that section. Then we went upstairs and learned about birds,Chinese culture, mummy's and dinosaurs then we moved on to this section where it was just full of stuff like bugs and storms and lots more then it came to the end of the trip we left the Museum  and we where done. 

what would your favourite part of the Museum be and have you been to the Museum?

O LE MALAGA FA'A'ATUA

On Tuesday the Court Theatre came to our school at preformed a play for us it was super funny and I really enjoyed. The play was about a coconut and it was called O LE MALAGA FA'A'ATUA And how the first coconut tree was made from an Eel. I really enjoyed the show because it was super funny and I learned lot's of new words , And I never ever new that the first thing coconut tree was made form an eel  But you never know that it could be fake it might just be lie but we never know. My favourite part of the show was when Maui was going to get a fish hook he was acting so funny and I actually also really liked the part where Maui was trying to get weapons the fight the eel. The show over all it was loud but one of the best shows I have ever seen If I where to watch it again I would be happy too.

what is your favourite show you have ever watched And if you haven't then what famous show would you like to act in?

winter sport

Every Thursday My hub and the year 7 and 8's go down to Hagley Park and play a sport. I play netball but you can play soccer, rugby, hockey and netball. You have to choose what you would like to play.

My netball team this year is called the Tarantulas and we have won every game we have faced. My fitness level has improved so much this year. My mum is my coach and before every game we play we have to to warm up and she challenges us and makes us run a lot. She makes us do high knee she makes us do lunges and the list goes on and on. It is best way to get our fitness up and it will stop us from getting a injury which is good because I love to  play sport and it would be super annoying if I couldn't. I think that my team this year works much more better together because we are all friends. We get along but the best thing is, we all  know how they like to play because some are in my Friday netball team too.  The thing is, why we win is because we don't give up and we play hard until the game is over. My team don't give up even if they are down at the start, but since we don't give up we come back with a win. I think that is why we have won all of our games. I think this year I have improved with my lobs because last year, I would always do lobs and the other team would get the ball and my team would get very mad at me.  I have also improved my chest passes.  I have really enjoyed this season and I love winter sport and I can not wait till next year.


If you did winter sport what sport would you play?

Cycle safe

On Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday and Friday the year 6's had cycle safety at first I was very very  to do nervous it it but in the end  I did it and I Evan past the test to make it on the road I did my on Tuesday and Friday. On Tuesday we had to practise for the road and on Friday we went on the road we learned what to do if we come across a road a bout and what to do if you come across traffic lights. I was really happy when we got back for lunch because my back was really sore and in pain and my bike stopped working on the road. but over all I thought it was really fun and I loved biking with my friends.

I have a question for you: How much do you enjoy biking. 

And maybe next time I will be happy to do cycle safety. 

Lets save the earth

This term in reading we have been reading about the environment. I have enjoined learning about how we can save the earth.

For reading this week my group read this book called Renewable energy.

The new ideas I have now since I have read this text are:

• using renewable energy means better air and healthier lungs.
• Plants can be used as fuels. crops leftover food, wood and waste can be burned. 
• Special pavements can create power by footsteps stepping down on them.
• human warmth can be used heat buildings.

I have learnt that there ar a lot of ways that we can save the earth but we are not doing that.

Here is a Question for you. Are you doing any thing to help our earth?

Eco and Me

This Week on Tuesday Erica Came In to us and talked about her business Eco and me and how she had made metal straws instead of plastic,she also talked about how much plastic we are using and how it takes about 5 years to brake down so that is why Erica made her business Eco and me.

 But she did not just make metal straws She made reusable coffee cups and bags for the super market that you can but your vegetable in  she also tolled us about some other items that she wanted to bring into her business Like Bags that you can but meat in and other items in.


 Then On Wednesday Glen came in and talked about how he got rid of plastic cups and the rugby,Cricket and other events. I thought It was cool because When you bring back the cup you get one dollar and he told us how a lot of kids go round picking up cups and earning a lot of money thank you for reading also I have a question what would you do to help save the earth?
