My friend is really a robot.

My friend Lanie once became a robot when she was four and a half years old. The way she became a robot was when she first learnt how to do the monkey bars. So one day when we were on school visits she tried to show me so when Lanie did the monkey bars it was a rainy day and when Lanie reached half way she slipped and fell but before she reached the ground a 12 foot hole formed beneath her and she fell down it. Lanie was trapped down the hole for four days so in the hole lived 2482 robots so she had to eat their food although she paid no attention to what she was eating because she was eating rotten cabbages, slugs, worms, caterpillars and completly  frozen solid meat. Ater about two days since she got trapped down the hole and went missing she figured that she had turned into a robot her self and had the powers of flying then flew straight out the top of the 12 foot hole.

Otago rugby players came to visit




we have had some Otago rugby players come to visit our school over lunch time. Children from lots of different classes got autographs and photos with them. We played a game of shark attack in the tennis courts with them. The Otago players were on their way to Alexandra 

My cube net



In room 4 we have been learning about perimeter and what perimeter is and 
I made the cube. On a cube there is 12 edges 6 faces and 8 corners. I have made this cube all on my own without any help so I hope that you like it. Maybe you could try making a goggle drawing yourself.

Cylinder



In room 4 we have been learning about perimeter so I have made a cylinder. In a cylinder there is 2 edges 0 corners and 3 faces.  

Chocolate description




The chocolate had the writing of Cadburys pressed into the top of it. Huge pieces of licorice stick out of the side. The chocolate  is long and thin with the tingly bits on every side. It smells delicious and makes me hungry. The chocolate reminds me of Easter time. It feels like little bumps from the writing. At the parts where it had been pulled apart there are bumps and lumps. The chocolate started to melt on my tongue while the tiny little tingly bits dropped and fell out of the chocolate. I started to bite down on it as it got thinner and thinner then it all fell apart. All of the small pieces of chocolate raced down my throat until there was no more. When I had finished my big delicious clump of chocolate I realised there was still room for me to fit another piece of it down in my tummy.

My speech from 2013



Swimming, piano, biking, guitar,running,Flute. These are all kinds of music and sport but which one do you like the best? If I had to choose one then I would choose sport the  best  and if you want to know. Well I’m going to tell you.

Firstly  you can become really famous playing sport like Mark Todd,Valerie Adams and Nikki Jenkins . When you play sport you usually go to A LOT of places round the world and play in front of huge crowds then lots of people get to know you. Especially if  you're in the Olympics. If you play music you do go all round the world for it but you don’t go to as many places or play in front of as many people.


Secondly you could do  sport  by yourself or as a team. When you're  playing music it’s usually in a team which takes LOTS AND LOTS of PRACTICE to get it right. Except when you’re playing sport you do have to practice just not as much because it is not as hard as it is when you playing music.

Finally it will make you fit. In sport you are always either Biking,Swimming or Running and if  you’re doing those three things then you will be moving and you will get the stitch. But if you get the stitch thats actually really good because it means you’re working really hard. So if you ever get the stitch you must be doing really well at whatever sport or activity   you’re doing. But if you play music you can’t really get the stitch because you’re not moving enough to get it.


This is why sport is better than music and just to remind you here are some of my ideas you can become famous, it will make you fit, you could do sport by yourself or as a team. And so this is why i think SPORT IS BETTER THAN MUSIC!
