Active Earth

In Term 2 we were learning about Active Earth. This movie is about volcanoes and the layers of the earth. Volcanoes can be violent when they erupt. Plate movement can cause volcanic eruptions and earthquakes like the ones we have seen in Christchurch recently.

Active Earth

This is a movie about volcanic eruptions in Auckland. It looks at dormant volcanoes like Mt Wellington. Movement below the earth's crust makes magma rise up to the surface and come out in a volcanic eruption. The magma cools down and becomes volcanic rock like the ones we saw on our trip to One Tree Hill.

Reflection for 2010

My 2010 Reflection
What have you enjoyed this year?

This year one of my highlights was going on some of the rugby trips. The Manukau Rovers, looked like a tough team of boys to beat, and they were! Even though they beat us they were an awesome team to play because they made us step up our game! After the game we shook hands. I was proud to be playing for Pt England. It made me want to try my best!

What have you enjoyed doing the most?

I have enjoyed trying to write more stories. Having a blog has helped me. People from around the world can see all of our writing

Which things do you think you would have liked to do more of?

I would like to learn more maths.. This could help me in the future.


What were some of your best memories from this year?

Some of my best memories from this year include going to One Tree Hill with our class. We walked up to the crater to look at the volcanic rocks. I decided to make my name out of rocks. It was a long day but it was exciting and fun. Playing Capture the Flag on the field was a great way to finish the day off!

SWIMMING Instructor



Last week Room15 went to see Chris, our swimming instructor. First he told us to try on our life jackets, then we all walked across the platform to the pool. Chris then asked all of us to float on our backs in a line. Following instructions, we formed a circle in the pool by holding each others life jackets. We then started to sing our national anthem out loud with pride and honour. Our next challenge was to try and sit on the bottom of the pool with our life jackets on (totally impossible) nobody in Room15 could do it! After that we had 5min free time to play with our friends before we got dressed to go to class.

Rugby

On Saturday my dad and I went to my rugby game. My team went in a van but I went in the car with some of my friends. One of them didn't have any socks so my dad and I went back to my house to get my friend some. When we got back to the clip we all took off to vs. Manukau Whites. It didn't take too long to get to Manukau Rovers club. After we got out of the car and out of the van we did some warm ups to get all our energy going. Next my team went on the field except me because I was too big to play under 11. So my Dad and I went to the shops to buy some food and we went see my Nana so I would feel better. After that dad and I went to my rugby club to go and see Mike to have a talk. After that we went back to Manukau Rovers clubs to have a talk . After that the game was finished so we went back to the club to drop off my friendsand then we went back home.

time we had meatloaf and it was delicious and my nephew and I did the dishes.

As I was watching the others swim I was waiting patiently, I could see ripples in the water. The next moment it was my turn as I dived through the water I pushed myself to the limit and glided through the water to the other side. My lungs were screaming. At the end of the pool I felt tired.
