Cultural Costumes

For homework last week we had to illustrate the costumes of a chosen culture. We put a lot of effort into making them look colourful! Great work Room 23 :)

Athletics Is FUN!!

Yesterday it was athletics day and the first thing we did was get into our age groups outside the senior playground and then I was feeling really, really nervous. After Mr K told us what the first activities we were going to do were, I found out I was going to do ball throw and I was nervous. We all had three throws and the final places were 1st place was Cameron 2nd place was ...ME!!! 3rd place was Jaxon. I felt really happy because 2nd place is really good. Then the next thing we were going to do is High Jump and I was nervous again because High Jump is harder than ball throw. Last year I came 3rd. So first we had to go on the left side or the right side.I went to the right side because I am right footed and the left footers on the left side.The final place's are 1st place is ME 2nd place was Cameron 3rd place was Lucas.

Athletics day

It was fun on Athletics Day because we did lot's of exercise; like ball throw, sprints, long jump, high jump and parachute. My favourite one was sprints because I'm good at running. I think I can improve on high jump by pushing myself more higher and ball throw by not passing the line. My least favorite part is sprints because it's not a race it's just for fun.

Awesome Athletics

Yesterday the senior's had athletics! It was a boiling hot day. My favourite sport was long jump because I ran faster than a Cheetah in the grass. I did not like high jump because I got hurt. It was really fun but very difficult. Now we need to wait another year to do this again.I can't wait! YIPPPY!

FIESTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi!I'm Emily, party planner  extraordinaire! Today I'm planning my best friend Rachel's, birthday party. I've planned for her party !I'm Emily, to be at the Howick club on saturday this week. I wrote a very long list of every single thing she wanted at her AWESOME party this year. I wrote a 100 line list of  every single thing I needed to make this party the time of her life.

The first thing on my list is to make a double decker chocolate supreme cake with chocolate mop cream inside. The next thing on my list was all of the invites. It took ages to go though the list but finally I made it to the last thing on my list, the entertainment. Everyone voted for One Direction, but they are so last year. I've got something way better planned....Chia Anne Mclane is doing a pirate peformance.

It was the day of the party and I got up bright and early and drove all the way to the Howick Club to put up the decorations: streamers, balloons and set up the stage where China Anne Mclane is going to perform had just finished setting the table with lots of goodies when Isabella, Tamara and Peita had just arrived at the front gate. I dashed outside to show them where to put their totally awesome presents.Now all that the totally awesome party needed was the birthday person.

Soon Rachel's car pulled up and I whispered "Everybody hide." Rachel walked in wondering where everybody was, when suddenly we all jumped up and shouted "SURPRISE!" Soon China Anne Mclane was rocking the Howick Club with her amazing song selection. Just then Rachel  came  and told me, "This is the best party you've ever planned in your life!" Then after that we partied all night long!.

PARTY TIME!!! by A.R

"YIPPEE" I'm so excited because tomorrow it's going to be my friend Corey's birthday party and guess what? I'm going to be planning it. It is going to be at Keith Hay Park, 2:00pm and for 4 hours. I really know Corey is really going to love it because I'm going to hire a limousine for Corey to come to the party with, and a fantastic disco party , and an amazing disco ball which is shimmering bright , and a white chocolate cake. We had to leave early because we need to see if every thing is still there. We finally reached Keith Hay Park the gigantic soccer field. Luckily every thing was still there so we were safe. Corey finally reached Keith Hay Park in a long black and beautiful limousine and  Corey came out with amazing clothes, a nice black and white suit, black pants and a cool hairstyle. He is ready for the huge party. First off, we started with clown show who could do juggling with 4 balls which is amazing, also juggiling with bowling pins. Corey got so dizzy because the clown did not even drop it once. Then the clown started to make balloons for the birthday boy Corey and just 1 sword for me. Then we moved onto the disco party which was the second to last thing today in this party. We danced and danced until we were tired and Corey and I were puffing and puffing. We did the disco dance for at least 1 hour. Then finally for the last thing: cake time! Cake is the time where you make a wish and sometime in your life it could come true. The flavour of  the delicious cake was white chocolate which said Happy birthday Corey. "YYYUUMM" We all finished the delightful cake and a minute later Levi and Jaxon arrived and a minute late and we've said, "sorry we finished, the whole party is over." They said that;s alright we'll come next year". I gave Corey my present, he opened the present and it was MIGHTY BEANS!!. He said "Thank you so much for the awesome party" and I said, "Your welcome Corey I also had a great time .When Corey and I got home we went straight to sleep because it was the longest day ever...
