Market Day!

Before we even had our market day, I was very very nervous because we haven't
finished all of our final products. It was the very last minute until all the tables had to
get set up, so I zoomed like cheetah to my classroom and started painting all of our cooling fans. My partner Casey saved the day by baking muffins and sticking Lot's of lollie worms on them, He brought it to my table and we started decorating them.

Here is a movie on what happened at our market day,

I HOPE YOU ENJOY!!

Ikale Tahi!

My favourite team, the 2nd best rugby team in the world are warming up, and are getting ready to get smashed by the winners of the 2011 rugby world cup team ''The All Blacks''.
Their Forwards Line up is amazing,
They have experience Tongan rugby players who had contracts signed from around Europe.
The back line formation is pretty fascinating, players like Taniela Moa and the super 15 star Fetu'u Vainikolo.

Surf Life Saving Ed!

On Friday we had the privilege of being invited to Mairangi Bay for the Surf Life Saving Ed.
We had an amazing time, We were getting tips of how to survive, learning how to save people but the most important thing we learnt was rips and tides. I was cruising with my boogie board on the big huge waves.
These 10 rules we learnt from the life guards are to keep you safe in the water:

1. SWIM BETWEEN THE FLAGS!
2. HAVE AN ADULT WATCH OVER YOU.
3. LISTEN TO THE ADVICE FROM SURF LIFEGUARDS.
4. NEVER SWIM OR SURF ALONE.
5. IF IN DOUBT STAY OUT.
6. BE SUNSMART.
7. LEARN TO RECOGNISE RIP CURRENTS.
8. ALWAYS USE THE CORRECT AND SAFE EQUIPMENT.
9. NEVER SWIM WHEN TIRED OR COLD.
10 AND FINALLY CONSIDER OTHER SURF USERS.

Yesterday we were walking to assembly full of excitement to experience the brand new netbooks.
When I receieved my netbook I was trialling I was very very ecstacic!

We took photos on the mini webcam, We were working on our Google docs and did
a reflection like Problems, Solutions and left comments on how the netbooks are working.
