An important factor is if you have a friend try and respect one and another. An significant friendship would last forever,  In order for your friendship to last forever you need to think of what you are going to say and you need to listen to each other but mostly your parents.

Term 4 Assembly

Mr Burt introduced team 5 by saying, “Time for team 5s performance”. Everyone cheered “Hooray”. I t was the Immersion Assembly for team 4. As the team 5 teachers got on top of the stage they started to paint.

It looked like they weren’t painting anything. It just was blobs of black and white paint. “Man this art looks weird,” I whispered to Howard. As soon as they finished they bowed to the crowd and posed in front of their  random painting. Suddenly they realised that the painting was upside down. Turning it over the whole school saw the paintings were 3 pictures of Mr Jacobson, Mrs Jarman and Mr Burt. I said to Howard “It looks cool”. As soon as they finished, Mr Burt said “We need to give 3 cheers for Team 5” Everyone said “Hooray!”

Watching team 5s performance was really fun. My favourite painting was Mr Burts because it looked skillfully painted and really effective.

As team 5s performance came to an end. Mr Burt wanted to say a prayer to end the first assembly of the term. Im looking forward for this term cannot wait to paint some pictures.

La Luna Paragraph

We have been trying to write a little paragraph about this short film called La Luna.

In the dark still night the stars were shining bright. The ripples in the water were spreading out in all direction as the boat was gliding along. With steady but powerful strokes the bulky man was concentrating as he rowed. Sitting quietly the little boy was looking at the stars up above and gazing into the sea..

Sky Tower Excursion

As we were standing on the platform I could feel cold air blowing onto my skin I shivered. I said to Damien, “I hope the train gets here soon.” As we were waiting for the train we were chatting animatedly. Suddenly we could hear the clickety clack of the train on the rails coming towards us. I said to the boys, “We are off to the Sky Tower"”. As soon as we got into the train my body felt warmer.



When people were walking past us in the city I could see the Sky Tower. As we arrived we saw strong and sturdy concrete pillars holding the Sky Tower. When we went through the entrance we saw some shimmering glass. As soon as we got on top of the Sky Tower we could see two wires for the bungy jump. Reaching up to the heavens the Sky Tower stood like a tall tree.



As we were standing in the elevator, I said to Wiremu “Look at the glass panel on the floor’. Through the glass I could see right down the elevator shaft to the bottom floor. As we got to the top of the Sky Tower I could feel my legs shaking.

As we were walking around the Sky Tower I could see a panoramic view of the whole of Auckland. Suddenly I noticed some other glass panels. I could see the road way down below with matchbox cars and miniature people. With courage I walked slowly onto it. It gave me butterflies and my heart was pounding. I said to Damien, ‘Man this is scary’.




As soon as we were eating our lunch I could see a person jumping off the Sky Tower with some heavy clothes on and a little harness on him.
Then we went down.
