Water Fun Day

 This is my water fun day writing

Recount of our Water fun day.

This Wednesday the whole school brought togs to have a water fun swim. All of the girls in Te Puawai dashed off with our togs to get changed into our fancy togs. It was hard to get my top part on because I was so excited about the water fun swim, I started skipping along to the slippery black and soapy water slide. 

There was a blue tunnel slide that you would shoot down, then you would go flying off the end.  I kept saying to myself, “I am not doing that!” Every time it was someone's turn Sir would say, “Go!!” Then people would go.  Chase was funny because he went down and landed completely lying down, Everybody said, “Ohh.” Next, Chase stuck his thumb up and yelled, “I’m ok!” I had one turn on the slippery black water slide then wandered over to have a dip in the pool. Me and my best friend Kaydee dived all the way to the deep part of the pool trying to dodge everyone in the pool oh and also all of the net-balls and water guns. The water guns were really hard to dodge. Kaydee and I kept on screaming like this, “Aah!” Koda helped us with that too. After the scream we all started giggling. After getting really wet in the pool the two of us raced over to the little playground and tried out that slide. It was almost faster, then the big blue slide. My fourth time on the little slide I flew off the end of the light blue slide. I kept begging and begging for Kaydee to do the same as what I did. I told her that, “It does not hurt when you fly off the end.’’ I don’t think she believed me with that. Kaydee did try to fly off but she kept trying and she never stopped stopping touching the ground. After all that fun I lied down with some of my friends in the sun until we packed up.  

Finally the teachers yelled, “Time for your last turn then pack up and get changed!”  So everyone ran off and started getting changed. As all the girls were getting ready to go home and get changed Mihi got her undies on and realised she forgot her pants, Mihi yelled, “Aaah I forgot my shorts!!”  Luckily a really nice friend Koda ran off when she finished getting changed and scooped up Mihi’s pants and raced them off to her. After all that I hopped on the bus with my friends and finished my day cuddling up and reading to my family. 

Reflection

I really enjoyed it when me and Mihi jumped around in the pool dodging everyone. I loved playing with my friends in the sprinklers. Next time I will go on the blue tunnel slide.

When It Rains

 When it rains

It drips, 

It pours, 

It puddles, 

It sprinkles

and it saturates cows trying  

to snooze in their paddock. 

It showers over me when 

 I’m  scooting to the car after

shopping at my favorite store. 

I make rain when I dribble as I’m

napping in bed, my dreams 

full of chocolate cake.

Here is my writing about the Tsunami warning.

WALT:  Write a narrative

Tsunami Warning Friday 5/03/21

Last Friday Paparore School had a Tsunami warning. As soon as everybody in the class heard the alarm we were wondering what the alarm was for. As soon as Mrs Jujnovich said that everyone in the school  had to get our bags and to go to the hall, everyone was worried and really confused. 

As all of us headed off for Maunga Ngatu, that was when I realised that It was a Tsunami Warning. When the school crossed the road I could hear people saying ‘climbing the fence is tricky’ then me and my friend could hear “aww that really hurts when I stand on gause.” Our first stop was just under higher ground, we all had a little snack and a drink of water there and some students got picked-up by their Mum or Dad. 

The next place we went to was our highest ground, that was when me, Mihi, Grace and Kaydee did each other's hair. When Mihi was doing Kaydee’s hair me and Grace did Rapunzel dolls hair, we kept trying to make the dolls' hair nice. Grace had to have a hair tie to do Rapunzel's hair so I gave her my spare hair tie. After doing Rapunzel's hair me, my friends and Mrs. Jujnovich played a game of I spy with my little eye. I would say that everyone got one point each, I think Mrs. Jujnovich got the most points though. 

After all that Sir arrived and we went downhill so he could put up the gazebo for some shade. They also brought up the barbecue so we could have a yummy treat.  As the sausages were cooking I smelt and heard them sizzling on the barbecue, and us all singing waiata together. After the waiata we all had a yummy barbecue. 

Then we had a hikoi back to school. On the way back most of us got to meet Stig, Mihi’s doggy. When we got to school I packed up my stuff and went home.

WHAT A DAY!!!

                                   

Paddle Boarding

Te Manga, Te Puawai and Te Kauru walked to lake ngatu to paddle board and have fun. We walked to get energised for paddle boarding. The first thing that all of us did was have a nibble. 

Mad About Science

 WALT predict and explain what is happening during our science experiments

On Friday 2020 Term 4 my class, Te Manga did some cool experiments. The experiments were Crawling colours, Lava in a cup and Magic milk.

Magic Milk:

You need something that you can hold milk in like a wide container or even a dinner plate and a small skewer. You also need milk, a few different food colouring colours and dish-washing liquid.

1. Get your container or your plate then pour your milk out just below the lip on the plate or half way of the container.

2. Put one drop of each food colouring into the milk.

3. Then get your skewer dip it into the dish-washing liquid then dip it in your milk and watch the magic happen.
