My year in GRill 2.0

Dear Ethan

My year in GRill 2.0 was awesome because  we did most  things on computers  and learnt new skills on computers. My achievements is production boys dance and much more.  my year in GRi11 was different because what we do when we do it and we can choose where we sit and work .  we can work by our friends  but if there are distracting we have to me     and my teachers were amazing there is so much to do in GRI11 2.0 we learn on fast track and use links so the teachers know what we have done.

  

The teachers were very helpful because they ran lots of workshops that we needed to .the Camp that we went on were amazing especially the glow worm cave. And the bomer trial was scary and frightening and made shivers crawl down my spin.  

After the bomer trail we got a very good hot chocolate. Then we went to bed i didn't want to leave camp.  I have had so many opportunities in GRill like digi awards in the digi awards futsal and much more. I really will really miss the opportunities. But the thing i will miss the most is the teachers and how we learn. I loved learning on computers because we can do a lot more things that we could do in a book. Thank you so much Mr R and Miss G you are the best teachers i have ever had in  all the six years i have been in at school.

                                      

Kind regards

Ethan

Culture day

In grill 2.0 we have been learning about cultural diversity on Wednesday our teachers set us a task to have a culture day. There were groups like a food group a sport group and a yoga group.  I choose to be in the food group. We had one week to do it we had to chose a country to do our food from my group did  German and Italian. On Thursday  we have the culture day we made the food because we  needed to know more about culture. Our group had to cook pizza and ginger bread men and we are teaching other kids about culture. I learnt so much more about other food from other countries. 

Marballs

We had marball season for three weeks today it ended marballes is a game game were you set up marballs an hit marballs. There are a differnt range of marballs there are tiny marballs and big marballs this season I hit about 23 marballs. 13 small and 10 big if you want to hit big marballs you need a surten type of marball could a bulldog and you roll those for queens and titanics. I have over 500 marballs at my house marballs is really fun and I love it.

Bike safty

on Wensday  we had bike safty a police man came to school and told us all the road rules then we were ready. After lunch he set up a course for us to ride on there was a round about and an intersection. when we turned the conner we had to put our arm out and turn thier about 15 other kids on the course. The hardest part for me was the round about because there were 10 other kids at the round about we had turns ever five minuets. Because there were 30 kids we all had fun at the end all the 30 kids got to ride on the course.

dessert Narrative

As I was walking through the desert In the distance the  wind was swirling the sand around   then I gazed upon a pyramid . Surrounded by vultures I scared them away using a gun  I was very thirsty but there was no water. My mouth opened with excitement as I walked into the pyramid. As i peered around the corner I saw a coffin with an arm hanging  out of It  I  grabbed a torch and opened the coffin. Scarab beetles started running out they wouldn't touch me because I had fire.  I stumbled into a trap full of poison darts I sprinted in fear but before i know it i'm out of the trap. As I trembled in fear as I peered around the  next corner I saw bright shining gold and diamond.  When I was going to jump into the gold I saw a ton of black scorpions one was behind me and injected me with poisson . I had poison in me I felt  dizzy and tired I grabbed all the gold and  diamonds I could carry . I nearly got out but I collapsed I woke up at a little town in the  desert and I was in a hospital. They said I  was unconscious for two days.

As I stared out the window I saw water. But I had to pay for it I gave him a tiny bit of my gold then I brought the fastest car they had and drove through the desert. But I got lost I looked at the map This location wasn't on the map I drove north but I ended at the same pyramid. I drove south to find the town I found it I asked for direction out of here but they didn't know. They said I had to stay there for ever but i said there must be some way. I drove every direction but there was no way out I thought to myself it must have been the pyramid. So I went back to the pyramid there was a door i've never seen before I went in  it was the way out. As I trembled in fear to go inside the door I thought about it if I went I would see my family  so I leaped in and went home to my family.

Madagascar Information report

Madagascar is an island east of Africa. It is surrounded by water. The population of Madagascar is 24.9 million. The currency is malagasy ariary. Madagascar are sending 2 athletes for the Rio Olympics 2016.The flag of Madagascar is White red and green It is kind of like hungary's flag. But madagascar’s is on different angles.

Madagascar is the fourth largest island in the world. The first people Who inhabited madagascar were asian and they came from the island borneo. And Madagascar broke of africa.The most popular Tourist attraction In Madagascar is Rova of antananarivo It is like a huge castle.

The worst Problem In Madagascar Right now Is Raw sewage on surface water it's  caused by sewage pipes left open. So the sewage goes everywhere over the place in rivers and the sea and there drinking water and  they can't swim  in the sea. The solution to fix Madagascar's water problem Is that Madagascar water organisation Is going to provide clean water flitters. so they can have fresh water to drink. And they should close up the sewage pipes and fix the water.

Sport rotation

Every Tuesday after lunch the seniors  have sport rotation . We do all sorts of sports my favourite is circuits because there is all kind of activates. My friend Cole teaches us how to do circuits.  My favourite activate is crazy catch because you throw it at the net then catch it and you can do it really fast but it might rebound and  hit you. There is nine fun activates we have five minutes on every station.

Birthday party at Flip city and Luke's house

In the holidays I went to Flip city with Luke,Cole and  Lachlan we played tag for 1 hour. Then we played doge ball for 1 hour.Then our time was up we had pizza and garlic bread and fizzy. Then we had finished the food we went to Luke's house.

We went on his tread mill then and Cole Nelly flew of because he was on the top speed which was 16 we went on his computer next for 15 minutes. Later we played on Luke's  PlayStation 3 and we played Minecraft. Then we have a Nerf gun fight Lachlan had the best Nerf gun because he got the mega bow with mega bullets. He hit us all in the face I Nelly got shot in the eye twice suddenly like lightning Cole shot a bullet from his gun It flew past me and hit Lachlan in the stomach he was out.

 We had a little break then Luke took the cake out of the box we all licked our lips. It was covered in chocolate we chomped our way though it When we finished we were stuffed. Then 10 minutes we had to go home it was a great day.

Swimming sports

 We went down to the lido to do our very exciting swimming sports champion ships and non champion ships events. I entered backstroke 25m i was willing to do another event i came fourth out of six people. After all the strokes and medley. Then there was  a surf board relay with all the team houses there is Tui Weka kea and Takahe my house is Takahe who won the surf board relay. suddenly we thought  swimming sports was over but there was still one more relay. For the winner the winner was Weka then Takahe then kea then Tui it was the best day at school ever.

Swimming sports heats.

On Wednesday we walked to the Lido to do championship swimming heats. There is 50m freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly and medley. I entered backstroke and i came third in my heat. The girls went first. In every stroke we were competing against the clock. It was only for the Senior Syndicate. After the heats only the best swimmers got to trial for inter school. I did not get into inter school trails. My favourite part was watching the medley. The winner of medley was Cole. I can't wait for the swimming sports.

Hurricanes visit CSNS

On Thursday the most exciting thing happened. The Hurricanes rugby team came to our school, along with More FM.

Before the Hurricanes came into the Hall, we were practising the Hurricanes chant.  It went like this... "Hurricanes, boom boom boom,  Hurricanes."

Then  the chanting stopped. I heard a rumble.  The Hurricanes were here. When the Hurricanes burst though  the doors everyone shouted "Hurricanes."

We had four Hurricanes come to our school. We asked them about sixteen questions, in which I learned that they practise for nearly 8 hours each day.

After the questions,  we saw mini Rippa games and the Hurricanes were coaching the Rippa teams.
Then we did jump jam.

It was really funny watching the Hurricanes try to do the jump jam moves!  Room 20 got to spend time with the Hurricanes for the rest of the day because the girl in their class entered the whole school.

It was very cool seeing them in person.

Hide Out Logo

 The Hide Out logo... Be very very quiet.

This is the logo for my favourite space in the classroom. It is blue because it is for the 'spiritual/relaxation' part of Hauora.

My Favourite place to learn

MY favourite spot in Grill 2.0 is the Hide out because it's a place to relax and have peace and quite. If you have a headache you can have silence. Instead of the racket that can be in the Hub and the Hang Out. Every one in the Hide Out is dead silent.

I like it more then the Hall of Fame because there is not as much room in the Hall of Fame. If your friends are distracting you just come hide in the Hide Out, it is a wonderful place. Why don't you join us and come have silence in the Hide Out? You won't regret your decision.

My Sixtus Lodge Experience

This week Grill 2.0 went to Sixtus Lodge in apiti. When we got there Mr.r and Miss.g said were going on a tramp. It was a long three hours there was a brige quater of the way there. When we were on it everyone gazed at the river. Futher on we walked down to the river.I was so glad when the when we were nearly there.I saw Jaeziah up a head i yelled out Jaeziah he turned around.I rush towards him saying there you are.When i did it then i saw hugo further down the trail.
