Kyal Cross Country

On the day of the cross country I felt nervous for the run. But l knew I was going to come somewhere but not last. We had it at our school Pt England School. People were watching, like families, teachers, everybody was there. We had it on Thursday 11th of September.

When the whole school started cross country there was year 1 to year 8. We needed to run in different year groups. There were teachers in different checkpoints along the course. There was 1 to 24. There were 4 house teams like yellow, green, red and blue. The names are Te Arawa, Tainui, Matatua and Takitimu.

When I got halfway to the 2nd lap l just ran fast. And tried my hardest to run fast. When I finish the race I was happy. Because we don’t have to run again for cross country praise. When we finish the run we all had a glass of water. Then after than we all sit in our groups. And finally we had finish for the last day.

I felt very tired and my heart was pumping hard as. When l had a glass of water l could it breath. I was so so so so tired.

Kyal Ban Plastic Bags

Dear Prime Minister John Key

I am writing this letter to tell you that you should ban plastic bags. I think that plastic bags are so bad because it will kill all of the sea animals. It might make the sea polluted . Did you know that 1 billion plastic bags are used in NZ each year?

People get plastic bags from shops, markets, Shopping centres, and The WareHouse.  They pay 10 cents for one plastic bag each. Sometimes you get some plastic bags for free. It makes rubbish on the road, rivers, and trees.

I think that people should use cloth bags.

Yours sincerely

Lest We Forget 1918 War

On Monday August the 4th we had a special assembly. It was about war back in 1914. Mrs Flavelle’s grandad was in the war and Mr Burt’s grandad was in the war too. Someone was putting up the flag on the pole to respect the soldiers who died and who made it home safe  to their families.

At Gallipoli they needed to fight in the mud, because everything was blown up  from the soldiers. Trees were on the ground and animals were dead on the mud. It had gun shots on the animals. I was so sad.

Many soldiers died in the war.

Kyal Holidays 2014

In the holidays I went to my cousins  house. We were playing Playstation 3. We played Watch Dogs, Grand Theft Auto and Black Ops 2. I only stayed there for 4 days, then I went back home it was alright there.

When I got back home I went to my friends house and we played on Playstation 4.  We played heaps of games, around about 8 games. There are 5 new release games like Watch dogs, NBA 2014, 2K14, Infamous 2 and Beyond 3.

Then after that we went to have a feed so we had KFC for lunch. It was delicious and tasty. Then when we were finished they took me back home. It was a fantastic day. It was like 6 hours because it was so fast and it went dark fast.

When I got dropped off I felt tired so I just jumped into bed to have a sleep.

Echolocation Writing

ECHOLOCATION

Echolocation, also called bio sonar is used by several kinds of animals like bats and whales. Dolphins also use echolocation. Animals make sounds and listen to the echoes of those echoes that return from objects near them. They use these echoes to locate and identify the object

Ben Underwood could not see with his eyes but he could see by using sound. When sound rebounded off objects he knew where he was going. He could hear cars from far away and that would trigger sound waves. Ben Underwood used prosthetic (fake) eyes and he can skate, ride a bike and shoot a basketball inside a basketball hoop.
