Kung fu part 2

In the holidays my family and I went to Sylvia Park to watch Kung Fu Panda 2. We were meant to go and watch Cars 2 but sadly it was sold out. The movie was going to start in 30 minutes. In that time we went to the grocery store to buy treats because it is cheaper.

Finally we had got all the treats and headed back to the cinema. I was looking forward to seeing what kind of adventure Pou (panda) was going to have. Jack black is a very entertaining actor and also really funny. Kung Fu Panda part 1 was kind of funny but this one looked hilarious.

The main character (Pou) was searching for inner peace. He was trying to search for his parents. When he was a baby he was abandoned and brought up by Mr Ping (goose). He discovered that his parents were attacked and killed when he was a baby.

My favorite part of the movie was when he fought against lord Shen who was trying to take over china. I thought lord Shen was going to win easily because Pou is such a clumsy panda, but maybe I thought wrong,massivie firey mateal balls were getting shot at Pou. What he done was found inner peace and slowley swifted the balls back at all Mr shen army.

Over all I thought this movie was really funny. My vote was probably 9 out of 10 stars.

But still we lost with a big heart

One of the sports New Zealand is known for is rugby. Our rugby boys were East Auckland champs so because of that we had to move on to the Auckland Tournament. We were all confident at trying our best.

We arrived a bit late, seeing all the other schools and their boys. They looked massive and I couldn't resist looking at them. I bet they thought I had an eye problem. So there were two pools a and b and we got put in the b pool. The teams that we were against was Sir Edmund Hillary Collegiate and finlayson Intermediate.

It was kick off time My position was lock, nerves were building. Luckily the ball went to the opposite way from were I was standing. Forming a ruck is quit a hard thing to do Its like building a bridge over who’s ever on the ground. Sadly we lost that game, and we came third over all.

We were one of the smallest teams there but we still stayed humble.

Term 2 Highlights

Term 2 has been a roller coaster experience fulled with loads of highlights. This terms topic was bigger,better,stronger and faster. So far we have learnt lots about famous inventors like Albert Einstein .

I really enjoyed Taoga time with Mrs Nua our topic was based on japan. Another cool thing about term 2 was sport, our 15 man rugby team took out the Eastern rugby tournament tomorrow we a going to the Auckland champs I can tell that it’s going to be a big competition.

The highlight that I liked out of all was the “I am making movie 2” competition our school entered 2 movies and we both were finalist. Sadly we just got nominated but did’nt win our girls won best creative movie and supreme winner.

Term 2 has been an awesome journey now i need new goals. I'm looking forward to term 3 and what new things we a going to learn.

Tech at tamaki

It was Monday morning, and our last day of tech. I got to school and saw everybody lined up and ready to walk over to Tamaki College.

We leave school at 8:30am every Monday and arrive there at 9 from then we get split up into our 5 groups. Our teacher is called Mr Malhotra, he is an awesome teacher and funny. He takes electronics and this term we were in his class. I had finished my project a few weeks ago so this week I just needed to create a poster that showed the dangers of electricity. There are different kinds of dangers like leaving electrical appliances on and they catch fire.

I really enjoyed being in electronics! It has been a great experience learning about batteries,wires and all types of things operated by electricty.

Japan

In our taouga time group we have been learning about japan.The thing I really enjoyed learning about was how to greet people in the mornings,afternoon and at night.

Tamaki Science Roadshow

Last week we went to Tamaki College for a science road show. I felt excited on what type of experiments they were going to show us. It seemed strange because I haven’t been to a science road show before.

We arrived at Tamaki College and entered the auditorium. I gazed across the room and saw loads of exhibits. Experiments waiting for us to have a fiddle with them. There were two presenters demonstrating to us what types of experiments they have. After all that was done we got to look around and try out some of the exhibits.

My favourite exhibit was about different smells because it smelt nice. The presenters were talking about temperature and the things needed for fire to burn.

Cell phones

One of the many useful technology gadgets that most people have are cellphones. There a many types of cellphone brands, for example there’s Nokia, Motorola, Hitachi, Sony Erickson, LG, Panasonic, Sharp, Toshiba and a whole lot more.

Phones have changed over the years since 1970. It has changed enormously through out the last fifteen years and is bigger, better, faster and stronger! It has made a huge change in our lives.

Because this technology has been used to keep in touch/contact with family, it is very valuable to some people. Phones can also be very dangerous because people are so addicted to it and drive while using them.

The kind of people that have cellphones are teenagers, business workers and adults. I had a cellphone, it was a Nokia phone. I mostly liked to use it to listen to songs and to talk with my mates!!! The cost of phones have increased largely over the years because of the new technology that they have.

Cellphones can be really incredible inventions, but can be dangerous sometimes. For example talking on the phone while driving, can cause severe damage because it distracts drivers from keeping their eyes on the road. Overall I think it has changed our country and world.
