Olympians visit

Yesterday (22.9.12) the famous gold medalists and silver medalist came to our school.  Their names are Peter Burling,Jo Aleh and Olivia Powrie.  Their sports is sailing. Jo and Olivia are partners.  This is the first year for Olivia to be in the Olympics.  It is the second time for Jo and Peter to be in the Olympics. Sailing is a popular sport in New Zealand. If you haven't heard of what sailing is, then i'll tell. Sailing is a sport on the water. The sail boat has a mast. It is shaped like a semi-triangle. One person hangs out of the boat to make the boat balanced. The other person steers the boat.

The great assembly started.  First we sang the national anthem when we finished we sat down.  Then we answered some questions.  I asked '' are you going in the Olympics next year", and they said "maybe".  After we sang six months in a leaky boat. We had a great time.  We get to have a poster and their signature.  This is the end of the special assembly. Hope you enjoyed it as much as us!!!!!!!!!!!!

Table tennis

Hi my name is Brian and we are doing quadblogging so I chose table tennis.  I play table tennis nearly everyday with my friends.  You should play it in your place if you do you should encourage more people to play it too.  In our school we have 2 table tennis tables behind the field.  I hope you like the picture of my friends playing table tennis!!!!!!!!

Point View Goes Olympic WILD!!!!!!!

On Tuesday the 14th of August 2012 the whole middle school had a mini olympics.  Everybody had to do 1 or 2 sports.  Peter did bumb shuffling, Peter and his team came 2nd and I did chopsticks and hulahoop ,in chopsticks I came 4th . In hulahoops I came 1st with 3 other people with me.  We made t-shirts with a maple leaf on the front with Canada through the middle of it .  The back of our t-shirts were just as beautiful as our front ,they had our last names and 30 at the bottom of our t-shirts.  After the time came ,we were all nervous at first but then we were confident.  We made a head band we got to choose what we had on them but we had to have black ,red or white on our head bands .   Some people put red glitter on their head bands.   We had a magnificent time .

Brian's Current Events

Today it was my turn to present my current events for oral language. My current events was about the fire at Xtreme Bowling

Our focus was to face the audience when we were speaking. I would give myself 9/10 for this.

I need to work on nothing.

I think I did well at looking at the audience.

NZ Gold

New Zealand Gold

On Thursday 2nd of August New Zealand won a gold medal!!!  They won the race for rowing.Their names are Nathan Cohen and Joseph Sullivan isn't that great!!!!  Sullivan in the stroke seat flung his arms in the air and sank back into Cohen's lap.  Their win follows bronze medals for the equestrian eventing team and coxless pair Juliette Haigh and Rebecca Scown 24 hours earlier. It was nothing new them. They do a lot of their racing from behind.  They are New Zealand's seventh Olympic rowing gold medallists dating back to the coxed four at Mexico City in 1968.  Cohen and Sullivan are not noted for their fast start and it was the same for last night.  But what counted was that they did in the final 500 meters and more importantly getting to the line first.

Wacky Hair Day

On Friday the 29th of June it was Wacky Hair Day.  We had to dress up in hats,wigs or just spike up our hair and put things on them such as materiels or hair spray. We all looked very weird but it was worth it.  We took photos of our class and gave out certificates to the people with the wackiest hair!!  Here is one of the photos of our class with wacky hair.

awesome amazing artwork

On Monday 7th May Room 30 looked at Kandinsky's artwork.  We copied his artwork but his one was better of corse.  We mixed only 2 colours on each square.  So we started painting our artwork we had to be careful that the paint went on our sheet of paper.  We also did it on the on the 8th of May it took a lot of cosentration. We made really good work my be you can make them just as good with these steps.

you will need:

paint brush.

big piece of paper.

primary colours if you don't know them they are blue,yellow,red and black and white.

palets or ice cream lids.  We did cream colour out of yellow and white.

Step 1: Get you get your ice cream lid, you will need three.

Step 2: Put on the primary colours on one palet, and on another you will have to put black and white on the other.

Step 3: Then put two colours on the third ice cream lid.

Step 4: Then get any two colours you like and get one, and then on the other take only a smigit of the other. And do six of them and that is four easy steps.
