Going To Australia

Before Christmas me and my Mum are going to Australia and it will be my last year at Point England School and I won’t be taking my netbook overseas with me. 

Because my Mum said I’m not aloud because I’m getting a tablet for Christmas if I'm not getting it this Christmas then I’m getting a tablet for my birthday. But when I go I am going to miss this school because I really liked this school because of the Education and how our Principle is one of the best Principle in New Zealand.


The reason why me and my Mum are going to Australia is because my sister wants us to live with her and my Mum agreed with her. But my little sister dosen’t want to go overseas so she is going to stay with her Dad but she might not be coming to school on the last day of school because I think her Dad is coming to pick her up in the morning and she will be going to Coromandel. Once they get there her Dad is going to get her into her old school because I used to live in Coromandel.

The day that we are going is maybe on the 20th of December because my Mum wants to go before Christmas so that might be the day that we will be going. Once we get there we will be at our aunty's house because my sister will be working or she has to go to the doctors. But it will be cool to be with my cousin because I haven’t seen them since I was 6. So that is what I will be doing for Christmas.

My 2013 Netbook Reflection.

The great thing about learning with a netbook is when we are doing our writing and we make a mistake then it would underline the ,word that is wrong meaning that you can just do a left click and then it will show the right word. But the good, thing about use a netbook is that we don’t have to use a pencil as much as we use to, like if we were to do our writing then we can just type on our key board and not use a pencil and paper as much.


Thing 3 things that frustrates me the most is when we have to do our writing and then it say trying to reach google docs. The number one thing the frustrates me is when we have to use tux paint and we ever you draw it will draw somewhere else. Another thing that frustrates me is when you have to use Gedit becuase your google docs is playing up.


The 2 things that would make it better our netbooks better is that when you write and it shows you trying to reach google docs if that didn’t show then you wouldn’t have to wait so long.
The other thing that would make the netbook better is if would could have free time like once in a while.


The thing that has change from when we didn’t have to use a pencil as much and we don’t have as many book as we would usally need. The thing that we could do better with our netbook is we could try not to break our netbook by holding it with two hands.

My Fun Week Of Swimming.



Last week I couldn’t go to camp. So I had to stay with the rest of the annoying 6’s who didn’t go. But my class is a year6 and year5  class so I think you know what would have to happen. But it was cool becasue we went  swimming everyday, but only if we brought our togs



That just the great thin about it. The boring thing about it, was that if we didn’t bring our togs then all we had to do was just sit there and watch them or read a book.  I didn’t want to sit down on the seat so I brought my togs everyday so I don’t have to sit down and watch everyone have fun but me. BUT...

Once we got into the pool that would have to be the coldest temperture I could have ever known...that was justMr Somerville would throw the ball and the first person to get the ball, then they would get a point. As we were playing we were starting to get warmed up and we could hear all the year 5’s coming back. So once they all came back we just played games and  haved free time.

On our last day of swimming was the longest amount of time we ever got guess how long it was. Assembly right through to morning tea is your answer.



Thanks To Laita For Helping Me Edit My Work.

All About The Crash.

One day Saninta, J.J, Tyres and Shaniqwa were all playing on the playground then they wanted to play tag so they did. As they were playing Saninta was starting to get teid so she went to go sit down for a bit. As she was watching them she found that they were having alot of fun and she wanted to join in then she got on her feet and went to go play with them.


As they were playing they all thought if they went back home then they would have to stay home but they were all getting thristy but ifthey didn’t go home then they could play more but they will be so thristy. So they stopped and thought what should they do? Once they finshed thinking about what they should do they thought they should so they chosed to go home and get a drink and ask if they could go back to the park and if  there Mum says no then they would go and play on the tramp.


As they were walking home they found a dog just sitting there so they gave it some pats on the head and then they were off home. Once they got home they found there Mum hanging out the washing that she had done then they all said “hi Mum can we please get a drink and then go back to park pretty please Mum with a cherry on top”. Then her mum said “No because it is nearly 5:00 o clock and I am going to start dinner very soon so you all can stay home but you all can go back tomorrow ok” then they said “Ok Mum”


After they had there drink they were think of what they should do next and outside they had a tramp and some tnnis balls 2 basket ball and 1 netball and 3 scocerballs and 4 tennis rackits. What will they plasy with? Once they chose what they will play with then they told each other what they will be playing with and they chose the tramp because they all will be able to jump around and do flips and all that kind of stuff.



As they were jumping J.J went to do a flip and then he full off the tramp but he was all right. Then Tyres had a go and he didn’t full off then it was Sainata’s turn but she didn’t won’t a turn so she skipped a turn. Now it was Shaniwqa turn so she was jumping around the she full off and she started crying what should they do?.


They could call there Mum or one of them could ran as fast as they can and call 111. What are they going to do? Then they could  hear there Mum calling “ whats going on out there I’m coming out right now.


So she came out the said “ what happened to Shaniqwa” then they said “she fell off the tramp and fell onto her arm”. So there Mum called 111 and asked for the Ambilance so they quickly came to pick her up and they said “in a few weeks she will be all better”. Then in a few weeks she was all better.

Charlee's Dune Buggy Story.

Once there were to people called Jason and Stacey and they were on their way to the desert. Why are they going there?. Once they got there they found 5 Dunen Buggys just setting there so they asked the man if they are aloud to go for a ride on them and the man said “ yes”.



As they were getting inside of the dune buggy they found alot of sand on the inside of the dune buggy. So they thought for a monent if they just jump in then dune buggy then they would get a head start on the buggy but they will get sand on the inside of there clothes but if we put something eles on then they won’t get any thing on the inside of there clothes and they won’t get as much time on the dune buggy. Jason said “ we should put some other clothes on so that the sand dosen’t get inisde our clothes” and she agreed with him.

As they were at the dersert they were starting to get alot hotter faster and they brought some bottles of water so they can put it on them. Once they were to hot then they grabed a bottle and catched the water on them then they were cooled down. Eventally they got change into there other clothes and they were exited to start because they never been in a dune buggy before.


While they were jumping inside of the dune buggy the found that there was no door on the buggy so they had to climb in to the dune buggy which they found diffenent goe they jumped in but they found it fun at the same time. Once they got into the dune buggy they were so exited that they had to wet them self again then Jason said “ Wow it is so hot today Stacey”.


Once they started the dune buggy they were off and then they got stuck in the sand and they throught what are  they going to do ? Then Stacey said “ there is a shovel on the back set that is what that man said do you rember”?


So Jason grabed the shovel and started digging  and it was going to take them forever each time he dug he would get more teid and more teid. Eventally he was to teid to even dig so he needed a rest so he took a rest. Stacey said “ do you want me to go dig for a bit while you have a rest”. Then Jason said “yes please” so Stacey started digging and they finally got to the bit that they can go dune buggying again.


They were so happy that they were to tied to climb through the door but they were able to get through. Then they were off and teid at the same time. “ Once we get home I’m going for a big sleep ok” Stacey said with a tied voice then Jason said the same then said “tomorrow it is going to be  a fun day”

My Writing Of The Rober


One cloudy day my cousin went to the shop to get some lollies.  Once she got to the Pt England shops there were a few  people there, and they were still inside their cars. Then she walked in and there was the shopkeeper looking around to see what everyone was doing.She saw us walk in and said “hello how are you today”, so my cousin said “good” back to her.

After she said  good this man with a black pair of jeans, black jumper, black hoodie and a beanie walked in the door. Then she looked at the shopkeeper looking like something bad was going to happenbut my cousin made, it look like she had no idea what was going on. Eventually he went to the counter and said “give me all your money”. Once she heard that then she knew that she had to do something. She should ring the police but she forgot that her phone was at home. What  was she going to do?


So she dashed out the door and ran to the next shop and asked them for a phone she could use. Then they asked why and she said, “because someone is robbing the dairy so can I use the phone like now PLEASE!!!!”. Eventually they let her use the phone and one moment she forgot the number but she finally remembered the number, so her finger quickly pushed 111 and someone picked up the phone and said Ambulance, Fire station or Police. She said “POLICE NOW”. So they asked why and she told them why and they quickly came to the Pt England Shops.


Once they got here then they got out of the car and said, “WHERE IS HE AND WE WILL CATCH HIM”. She said “He is still inside of the shop stealing the money from the shopkeeper”. They dashed into the shop and caught him and so they arrested him and put inside of jail for a very long time. The shopkeeper was  pleased that the Police got there in time so they could catch him so the shopkeeper said, “THANKYOU VERY MUCH LITTLE GIRL” so I said, YOU WELCOME SHOPKEEPER”, the she was off home.</b>

My Para Lympics Story

Yesterday Room 15 went outside for the afternoon but we had no idea what we were doing. Once we got outside Mr Marks said that “we have to go find a partner because we are going to be like the people in the Para - Lympics and see how it feels like to be one of them”. After he told us that we most of us were thinking how are we ment to do this but once Mr Marks told us how we were going to do it then we finaly got the idea. ( Paragraph 1 )


The only reason why we were doing it was because we were watching most of the Para - Lmpics on youtube with out teacher. He thought if we are watching all of this then how would it feel to be like one of them. So he decied to do that but I thought that we just would of try to do it ourself but no we didn’t. I was shocked that he could even think of that because if I was a teacher and I had to think of that then I would just make the kids do it not me really. ( Paragraph 2 )


Then he said that we had to get one of the new bibs and stick it around our wast but some how I couldn’t seem to fit it around my wast all it would do is fall down. The only way I could stick it on is if I did a not and atatch the vellcob together and yeah. After all that saw soughted then he said that we had to go find a partner and set behind your partner so I chose Mele but she wanted to go first in the first challenge so I let her. ( Paragraph 3 )


Once Mr Marks told us our first challenge then me and her talked to each other to see how will be doing what. So we got that over with then we had to just wait for Mr Marks to finsh what he was doing. Then we were about to start till these boys would stop talking so we waited a bit longer then they finaly got the message so now we could start our forst challenge. ( Paragraph 4

Rippa Rugby

On Friday the year 5 and 6’s Rippa Rugby Girls had a game againts Pamurer Bridge, Silvia Park Primery and Baily Road. We all walked down to the Point England Reserve at 9:10 am.  Once we got there we had to get into our lines because there was three other teams from Point England and they were the Over 50kg’s Rugby Boys, Under 50kg’s Rugby Boys and the year 5 and 6 boys rugby team.


Once we were in our lines we played Silvia Park Primery School. First we had had the ball then we got 3 point in 5 mintures then they had the ball but the only one point in 10 mintures. After that the game was over and the Point England Rippa Rugby Girls Won so the we went on to the next game againts Pamure Bridge.

Once we finshed our first game we waited for Pamuer Bridge to get here then they eventally got here. Once the buzzer went off they started with the ball then in five mintuers  they already had  two points. Then we had the ball then in 5 mintures we had four pionts then the game was over.  Then we had to play Baily Road so we just waited for them to get here.

Once they got here we quickly talked about what would happen if we won all our game and Miss V said “ if we win the we will go to the champions in New Lynn. So once we heard that then we knew that we had to win this games or we won’t be  Champions. So we tried our hardest to win and we won but the other team thought that they had won but we knew we won our game. So it looks like we are off to the champions ship in week ten.

My Cross Country Story

Today is that day again cross crountry. “Oh no” I said to myself well all I can say is that I hate running. But really I have to run or I’ll come last in all the year 6’s.


Our cross country started at 12:00 o’clock but all the 11 year old kids had to start last cause we just had to really. But once we got down to the reseve I quickly looked at everyone and they all look like that they weren’t even ready to start. All I knew that I wasn’t even ready for this day to even come.



All I could hear was Mr Burt saying “get ready get set go” then he claped the wood together. Then we were off and first I just started jogging and I knew that alot would sprint then they would get tierd half way to the finsh line si that was why I jogged.   

When I got past Mr Burt I could just the track and everyone running and walking. But I was thinking  if I tryed then I get to that finsh line. Then we got to the muddy puddles and the slippery paths and that might be the hardest bit in the course.

Once that was finsh then we got to the broken bridges. They weren't really broken but there were pieces missing but we'll be able to get across and yeah. After we got overe that then we had to go through the brushes and then we would nearly be at the finsh line. But going through the brushes did slow me down abit but I got through those brushes then I was nearly at the finsh line.

After I got through the brushes then I was nearly at the finsh line. But I was so tried that I run but I knew I would get there and I can't give up now so I just tryed my best and I got to that point that I knew that I had to carry on. Once I crossed that finsh line then I just fell to the ground but then I had to stand up again so Miss Fallive so she could get my house colour which is Matatua which is the colour Green.

Sausages Sizzle


  1. Yesterday Room 15 had a sausages sizzle which meant ,if we wanted to have a sausage then we  would have to bring a gold coin donation or we weren’t allowed a sausage. But Mr Mark said we were allowed one only if we payed him the next day. So we did end up having one but before we had one we and to make it so this was the first step.


We had to take turns cutting up the onions so we did. First we get an onion and then peeled it then we had to cut it in half. After that we had to start chopping it into semi ciucle and stick it onto the big green plate. But we couldn't just stick it stright onto the grill causes the sausages were cooking.



Finaly Mr Marks finshed cooking the sausage and that ment that he could stick the onions on the grill.  Once those onions were cook then we could eat our sausage sizzle. Just a few more  mintures and then we could eat them up.



Once the onions were fainly cook we had to stand in line and wait til we got to the table then we could get a bread. Then we go up to Mr Marks  and get an sausage amd some onions. Next we would go up to Aldora and Meleane so the can strick some tomtoe sauce on top of our sausage sizzle.



Now it’s time to eat our yummy sausage sizzle. Then we walked outside to the deck  and started to eat our nummy sausage. Once I took a bite all I could taste was a bit of  bunrt bit of the sausages. So I took another bite then I could taste the nice hot sausage so I eat it all up and went to take a drink then back to our school work “oh no” I said as I was walking back up the stairs.

Charlee's Rugby Training

Yesterday my team and I had practice. Before we did anything and go anywhere we had to go to get change and then meet Miss Vaafusuaga down at the bottom field. Off we went doing as we were told.

Out of nowhere my teammates started screaming because the field was wet and muddy. Nobody could really blame them...it was muddy and dripping with water!

After a short while MrsVa’afusuaga yelled out at the top of her lungs, “Come on girls stop playing around and come because we are going to do a quick warm up, ok.” We got there eventually, not too tired or not to cold.

Then Mrs.v took the ball off us and said “Come on girls get into your places now so we can start training hurry up”. Suddenly the bell went...and off we went running to the changing rooms. Once we were clean and ready to go we were off to class.

Charlees Story About Claude Monet



Claude Monet was a French impressionist painter. He liked to paint on the same subject but with different backgrounds. He like to paint landspace on different days or season. He liked to capture the moments of his paintings with different colours and light.


Claude Monet lived in Giverny. He liked to paint beautful paintings of the watergarden at his house because of how the water moves and reflects the world. He would go back over and over on the same subject .


The famous painting of the Japenese Bridge that show an arch brigde with a pond under it. It would have trees surrounding the pond. Each season the pond would change how in spring the leaves fall on the pond and the pond would be coverd with leaves but in summer the water would be warm with light shining on the surface.
