Journey Through Time


For four weeks  I am Going to be doing the summer learning journey about the history of New Zealand. This is the Third  week of my journey and the ninth day.

Activity One 

For this activity we have to write down what we think about the one type of meat and three veg rule for dinner do we like the rule why or why not?

For me I like this rule because I like meat and I like having fresh veges especially mash potato and gravy. Also I like that rule because it means that I don't have to eat all the junk food for tea.

Activity Two

In the 1950s the population of New Zealand grew by 400,000 because so many people were having kids and the popular names for them were=
GIRLS BOYS
Christine John
Susan David
Margaret Peter
Judith Michael
Jennifer Robert
So for this activity we have to write down which names are most popular at our                                          school.

For the girls it would be = Lilly,Emily,Ella,Hayley 
For the boys it would be =Sam,Logan,Jayden

Bonus Activity

For this activity we have to design the front of a post card Kiwiana that we would sent to a friend.

Journey Through Time

For four weeks  I am Going to be doing the summer learning journey about the history of New Zealand. This is the second week of my journey and the seventh day.


Activity One 

For this activity we have to write down some ways that we use to distress ourselves.

1. The first thing I would do would probably be go in my room and lay down and watch YouTube.
2. The next thing I would do would be sleep.
3.Another way would be reading a book and having some quiet time to myself.
4. also I would  sit and watch a movie with someone I trust.


Activity Two

For this activity we have to Imagine that you were alive in the 1930s. What could you have done to help these families without money ? so we have to list three different ways that you could raise money for families to help them buy food and clothing.


1. You could have a big show with animals and magicians like a circus.
2. You could have a raffle and all the money goes towards the families.
3. Maybe we could have a food festival and everyone can come and bring a plate if they want to.

Bonus Activity

Imagine that you were able to travel back in time to visit a family in the 1930s. What special gifts or treats would you like to bring with you? I would likely bring blocks of Whitaker's chocolate, bags of Jet Planes and Pineapple Lumps, healthy food snacks, clothing, and games for the children. What about you?


If it was me I would bring healthy food and clean water. Also I would bring warm clothes and probably chocolate.

  • Rainy day
  • Ice wind \
  • No survivors
  • Striked spins
  • Thumping thunder
  • Sharp flashes of lightning
  • Five hour flight have just begun
  • Last light from the mountains
  • The sun was never to come up tomorrow  
  • Fighting the flickering fire
  • My hopeless hope had run out





Wake up,Wake up,Wake up,Wake up,Wake up,Wake up Wake up. hu  you ready to go WHAT IT'S THREE A.M IN  THE MORNING (so come on the planes waiting on us ) he took my luggage and put it in the plane by the time he came back i was ready to go. We jumped in and we were off, our five hour flight has just begun. After an hour of reading i could hear thumping thunder and sharp flashes of lightning ,it didn't really bother me because i had been worse  so i plopped my earplugs in and fell asleep. Then i woke up to the strangest sound It all started on a rainy day the sky was grey and lonely but no hope was lost in me i was still waiting for a phone call suddenly the phone rang finally i picked up the phone excitedly wait it wasn't the right voice then i reoliesd the pizza man saying that my pizza request had been denied, NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I hanged up straight away then it rang again WHAT NOW!! I picked up the phone finally it was the right person.(hello this is doctor fatbottom here ) doctor what, (fart bottom anyways i am inviting you to help me get samples in antarctica ) well when is it  (tomorrow ) WHAT!(what what's the problem) i haven't even(bep bep bep bep). i should probably go by some cat man do clothes (i wonder if they are made out of cats).
(TEN MOMENTS LATER) right ready to go in the morning what time? Probably eight´oCLOCK time set eight´oCLOCK done. Wake up Wake up Wake up every was drunk the pilot had been knocked out so the plane was doing violent spins.Looking through the window we were in the middle of nowhere everyone was throwing people off the plane WHAT! .Everyone had lost their minds. looking out the window we were starting to get close to the ground i ran to the pilot's room THE PILOT WAS THROWING THE CO_PILOT OUT THE DOOR,we were getting closer to the ground by the second. Oww no the pilot saw me so  i booted him out the door i will alway regret that moment.sundly doctor fatbottom walked in the door (does anyone want some nuts haha).Then he momentarily fainted i looked in the window AAAAAAAAAAAAAA HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH we are about to hit the ground BOOM.
All i could see was the snow fighting the flickering fire  i escaped out the window of the plane, as the Last light from the mountains went down it was never to come up tomorrow my hopeless hope had ran out.

THE END

Looking Forward To Summer

Two weeks ago we started a poem about remembering summer now we are doing looking forward to Autumn in this poem we were trying to use as much adjectives and similes as possible
here is my work.



Looking Forward To Autumn


I can’t wait to smell burning firewood in the old rusty fire place by the brick wall.


I can’t wait to taste the apple and black boy peach crumble flooded with hot chocolate.  


I can’t wait to see the colorful leaves floating off the dancing trees like a leaf parade.


Here comes Autumn


I can’t wait to feel the crackling leaves under my feet as the autumn breeze floats through my hair.


I can’t wait to hear wind banging against my window showering rain when I am snuggled up in bed with my cat feeling relaxed by the sound.


Here comes Autumn.

Spencer Park

In this piece of writing we were learning to use adjectives and to form paragraphs 








(Wake up) uh another school day wait we are going on a trip.We were on an adventure with the year 4-6 classes  to Spencer Park as a school trip.
We went to spencer park to get to know each other and perhaps make new friends.

First of all we had our morning tea under the shade of the tree .I had a the best bar in the world apricot and custard as soon as I took a bite all my taste buds exploded.

 After mr breach had gave us permission to go to  there was a big rush where  everyone rushes to the playground. I went straight to the tire swing after my term I stayed to help push the whole time, but it was worth it because it was it was extremely fun when you got a turn, even though it was scary because you felt like  you were going to fall off    .

After we got called back in we walked down to the beach. It felt like I was just walking out to the garden until it started to get sandy. I remember my shoes filling up with sand as i walked.

Once we arrived we were off on our first task the tallest,the most creative and the team that was the collaborative
Step 1 we dug a hole  in the ground     step 2 we then got a big,holey, sandy, tall, white piece of driftwood       step 3 we then placed the piece of vitaclay in the hole       step 4 after we filled up the hole with sand
Step 5 DECORATING TIME ! (we created a zip line)

Wile 3 teachers were judging  we had a race Mrs McG drawn out the start and finish we got into groups in the groups there were people that you wanted to race against my group was last in line so once we moved up my feet had sunk in the desorbing sand  so three groups joined to one group oviya s lee i came last.
After lunch we went back on the playground i don't go near the tire swing i went exploring a little bit i dint find any thing that i wanted to do so i went to go play some volleyball (I SUCKED) after a while Mrs McG joined in.in it felt like 2minutes we were on the buses back to school i didn't know about anyone else but i was exhausted.
