Castaway

I have landed on a stranded island, I’m getting scared i don’t know what to do. I looked around to see if this is a safe and beautiful island and it’s as beautiful as the sunset and all I could hear was the loving sound of the waves. I felt a little bit safer so I explored the island before doing something. I dragged my boat on to the surface so it doesn’t float away and then next thing you know POP! My boat popped and now i’m disappointed.

I was just walking around and I stepped on something, it was a stick so then I thought what if I made shelter so I can survive so I did. I started to collect sticks, rocks, fronds, moss, twigs pretty much everything that I saw. I looked for an open space then I started weaving the flax for a bed and tying the wood together with some of the flax. I put the wood up in like a pointy way and I felt exhausted and I was proud that I could do all of this and the weaved flax was my blanket and I grabbed the sticks and made a fire.

While I was waiting I forgot about food so I went searching for food. I was also collecting sticks, rocks and some other stuff so I could get food. I saw some coconuts so I tried using sticks but that didn’t work so I used rocks that didn’t work either then I started shaking the tree with all my strength and finally it worked. I grabbed the coconuts and went to my shelter and started grabbing shells so I can break the coconuts and while I was doing that I knew that I can make a bowl/cup so I can scoop up water and bring it back to my shelter.

I had some sleeps in the shelter but I didn’t feel so well so I went out on the sand and I started drawing a big sign saying help so someone can come and help me so I can be rescued. I can go back home and I can relax in my comfy bed. I used my feet and sticks to draw the word help on the sand like huge so someone can see that i’m on the island waiting for help. I was really tired so I went to my shelter laid on the boat and put the flax blanket on me. Then I went to sleep.

While I was sleeping I heard a loud noise and It sounded like a buzzing bee but even louder. It got louder and louder so I woke up and went out of my shelter and looked around, for a minute a thought there was no one but before I was going to leave I saw a red and yellow figure in the distance. It came closer and closer, when it was close as I saw a helicopter and I was like they saw my signal for help “YAY!” I shouted with excitement and relief. Then I started saying “HELP HELP” so they could hear me but I thought they can’t hear me so I started waving my arms and still saying help and they saw me. They came down and said “come in” so I did and I felt so happy that I nearly cried. “Bye bye land” I whispered to myself.

First Netball Game

Today we had our first netball game on the 9th of may. It was awesome but I was kind of nervous but it was really fun. We had to wear a black and red skirt and T-shirt with shoes you're comfortable with. I went with my aunty and uncle with Judah and Naomi my cousins. We were versing Doi Topaz and I was very excited. Before we played we had to stretch and practice for a while then the siren would go so we had to go onto our spots. My team mates were Makayla, Bethan, Justice, Petesa, Tepeia, Charlese, Leilani, Amelia, Me and our captain Paikea. My spot was GK and I was never swapped only for subs because we had only 3 subs so some people would have to swap. Guess what we won we actually won the game it wasn’t that bad because they were kind of easy to beat but at least they tried there best to beat us so we cheered for them.

Unfortunately Naomi’s team lost by the Revelation Eagles because they were really good but they weren’t a school they were a club that’s why they won because they probably train 2-3 times a week.

Hope you enjoyed,

Immersion assembly

Walt: Just the first day of term 2

Today is the first day of term 2 we had our immersion assembly and our new topic is Now that’s thinking so you just have to think smart so it can be a great idea that other people will use.

Team 1-3 were all about flying kites and we watched their admiring movies. Team 1-3’s movies were making a kite in different shapes, sizes and colours. Then they would go outside and set it free so then other kid and people would see it hovering in the air. Team 5 was different. Team 5’s topic is fixing so fixing all of the equipment in the classes and the tree’s and dirt outside the classes.

Team 4, my team's topic is technology. What Technology did Maori people use back in the day and before pakeha came and arrived in New Zealand. Team 4’s movie had all of the team 4’s teachers so Mr Goodwin, Miss Scanlan, Miss Parent, Miss West and Mrs Buchanan. In their movie they had to think of what they should learn about. Then the amazing thinking teachers went looking around in the library. Then handsome Mr Goodwin found out that they started making cars in 1997.

What I wanna learn about is probably more maori stuff because I wanna learn more about interesting maori stuff and more related stuff to maori and New Zealand. I’m just really hoping to learn about extraordinary maori stuff.

What I think about the new term theme I think it’s very creative and interactive. I really hope they think of a fabulous theme next time. Now that’s thinking is like your smart and you're thinking very great creations and idea’s.
