Treaty of Waitangi..

For the next ten days we are learning about the Treaty of Waitangi. But so far I've learnt that the reason why they sign the treaty is to make peace between Maori and Pakeha. But way before the treaty was signed Pakeha and Maori did some trading, Pakeha people traded Muskets for food but the one of the people that I know who signed the treaty was William Hobson was representing the Lieutenant-Governor. Hone Heke was a Maori person that I know who signed the treaty.

What i am looking forward to next year.

Next year I have to be a role model for our whole school. I'm looking forward to being year 8 and it is going to be exciting, and at the same time it’s going to be nerve racking. I will be responsible for the juniors and will be looking out for them. I hope it is going to be a cool last year next year.


Q1) What makes a good role model?
A) Is when we all take charge of our school.
B) We all look after each other.
C) Help all the little kids when they need help.

Q2) Who is someone in year 8 that has been a good role model?
A) I think Sela is a good leader because she did her job being a prefect.
B) I think Tanielu is a good role model because he has been showing us how to be a good leader.

Next year my goal is to be better at my writing and attitude.
C) I think that Paulitia Peleti is a good prefect because she has shown me how big being a prefect is.

Today we got our test results, for the testes that we did. I was so happy when we got it because I really wanted to know if I past but it turned out good but it was not what I wanted. You don’t always get what you want aye. Miss Langitupu told us that we all did so well and that we have improved, from the being of the year. Well that was a shock then we all shared looking at each others test results, some of us really improved some didn’t improve a lot but we all tyred.

Today we had to go on YouTube and search a video about space.I found a video and watched it. I found out that there are a lot of different stars and they were much bigger, then the sun.

The sun is the only star in our solar system. While I was watching the video the stars were getting bigger and bigger. I thought that the sun was the biggest star, but what i thought was wrong. Although the sun is the biggest star in our solar system. Some of the stars that I saw on the video were not in our solar system but were in other galaxy's .

On Wednesday we went to Sylvia Park to watch the Manaiakalani Film Festival. Team 5 was so excited that when we got to our destination,we rushed out of the bus like we were having a competition.

When we got into the theater and was put into chairs some girls went on the lazy boys and the rest just wanted to sit on the normal chairs. First we watch was the intro that was presented by a girl named Tatiana from Tamaki intermediate

The one I like is Zombie Attack Presented by Tamaki college students.
It was scary and very creative i like how it looks real and how they dance to Michal Jackson Thriller.

My second Favorite Movie is Tamaki intermediate “ don’t stop believe” it was amazingly cool and was very movable and I like there moves its cool.

Our Solar System.

Yesterday we had a demonstration about what is in our solar system.
We had to do it outside because our class was too small, so we went outside and it started to rain. Then we had to come back inside and push all of the desks out of the way to make more room.

We blew up the balloons so we can see which order our planets are in. All of us helped Mrs Lagitupu put the planets in order from Mercury to Pluto. Did u know that Pluto is a classified as a dwarf planet? I found out when Tia told me I felt excited because i just learnt something new!

The order that Mrs Lagitupu put the planets in was like this: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. Did you know that Mars has the biggest volcano in out solar system? During our experiment we had a little discussion about why we are the 3rd planet from the sun. But what I liked about out little discussion was how I learnt some interesting stuff that I could use in my writing.

After all of our experiments and demos and discussions we had heaps of fun popping balloons, and finding out heaps of information about the planets. I think that was the best experiment of the year!

My term 3 Highlight...

The RWC is nearly over and I am dying to know who is going to win the RWC. At first I thought that Tonga was going to win but they did not.
But now I think Australia is going to win it for this year. I want to go to the quarter finals but I’m not allowed. My favourite game is Tonga V.S France my favourite part was how the won.
