Kawau Island Camp Bentzon

On Tuesday 18/11/2014 year 6 at Pt England School went to Camp Benzon on Kawau island. We waited for the buses to arrive then we can load the bus with our bags. When we hopped on the bus i sat down and relaxed. It was a long trip to sandspit wharf where we would be catching the ferry to the Island.  

Finally we arrived in Sandspit. We had to unload all the bags to put them on the ferry.

We loaded  the ferry and went down the steps to get on. I walked through the ferry and up the stairs to sit outside. I sat down and took off my hat incase it  got blown off my head. It was an exciting  trip on the ferry because we saw dolphins. I felt really awesome because I saw the dolphins.

When we got to the island we unloaded all the bags and food on to the wharf so the ferry could leave.  We had to work as a team to get the bags from the wharf to the cabins. Mr Jacobsen called us in to get ready for the hike. we walked up killer hills that went on for ever and ever. It was really hard work. We walked for ages!!! When we were almost at the beach I had to go down a zigzag hill it was very stemp. When We arrived at the beach I had lunch.  I had fun and then we went back to our cabins. Then we slept for three nights.

It was exciting to be at Kawau Island. I had a great time there. THE END

How to be a good Pt Englander

To be a good Pt Englander you need to be polite, respectful and smart we also need to wear it with pride. We do these because it is the pt england rules and it makes pt england to be a nice place to be.

The first thing to be a Pt Englander you have to be polite so we can be respectful to other kids when they come to our school. We can show this by using our manners. When we get our netbook and u say excuse me can you get my netbook please Thank You.

You have to wear your uniform with pride. Because once Mr Burt talked about wearing your uniform pride. It is important because the visitors will think our school is messy when you leave your clothes around the school. Dont leave your clothes around your waste.

Being cyber smart is a way to learn at school. we have to be cyber smart because to learn thing’s that we haven't before like our maths and reading. We can be cyber smart by not going on games and the wrong stuff.

Creative spring writing

Rugby Soccer was invented by Matiu in 2014. He had an idea when he had to come up with a game to be brought up to be in the 2018 Commonwealth. To win this game you need to kick the rugby ball in to the soccer goal.

The equipment you need is Rugby boots, Soccer top and shorts, shin pads and shoulder pads. The venue you need is a soccer field 200 meter's long, um and a soccer goal.

This is an Individual event. There are 5 competitors competing in that game. The positions they play in is Forward,Wing,Hookah,First 5,Prop, Defence, Attack and goalie.

Commonwealth Report

We have been learning to write report about a Commonwealth Sport. Here is my report about table tennis.

What is Table Tennis?

Table Tennis is a game that you can play as a pair or single. In table tennis you use a Table tennis bat to hit the small little Ping Pong ball and go over a little fence in the middle of the table.

What rules?

The upper surface of the table, known as the playing surface, shall be rectangular, 2.74m long and 1.525m wide, and shall lie in a horizontal plane 76cm above the floor.

What equipment do you need?

First of all, you'll need a bat of your own. Sure, you can always borrow other people's, but it's best to have your own personal ping-pong paddle.

What is Culture?

We have been learning about culture. Mrs Jacobson read us some information about culture and we wrote down what we heard about.

Here are my paragraphs.

Culture is different to other places. It is what we believe, think and do. Countries have different cultures, they could be Maori, Samoan, French and other cultures in a country. Culture is where you come from. I come from New Zealand and I am Maori.

In Japan the older women wear a traditional dress called the Kimono.
