Word Art
This term for topic we are doing art that is the main idea any way but for now we are doing word art and studying Cecilia Russell who has a few drawings in New Zealand of it. To make word art is really easy all you have to do is just draw the word like the shape of the actual thing, then you just draw the outline and then fill it in with the word. It's really simple. We've just finished some demonstrations hope everyone likes them. Now were doing our very own sketches but we've only started so it'll be awhile until there done and we can share them with you. Hope you learnt something about art while you were reading this.
10 PIN BOWLING.
In the first round, I got a strike and then some spares. My mum Shirley, Isabella, Brodi, Braahm and Mrs Norrie were cheering for me.The Onerahi school kids were getting all happy because they got a strike.
We had lunch. Hurray! We came 3rd. Next, we came first. We got 1 strike in the first game. Just before we had lunch, I went to play an arcade game where you can win balls, Smurf toys and stuffed animals. I had a sausage roll and my mum brought everyone in my group, including Reyne, a gingerbread man, even though Reyne was with Te Rina and Tyler. It was so delicious.The gingerbread man was gingery with terrific pink icing. He had chocolate buttons. I started getting full.
We reached our second game. We were on lane 14 and were still playing Onerahi. Isabella got a strike.
"Yay!" I said, "Brodi just got a strike!" I got some spares and Braahm got a strike while we were playing and enjoying ourselves. Later, when my mum brought us drinks, we all drank fast because we were all really thirsty. After a couple of spares we played lots of arcade games. Mrs Norrie ordered hot chips for us, but I was too full. We just needed some strikes and some spares on our last game.
Our group screams were the loudest in the last round. I got lots of spares but I wasn't as good as the first round. When we finished the last game, we all had a break and then we had to go and sit down in our tribes. They chose the best group name. Ours was the Whau Strikers, but the Onerahi team won. Their group name was Strikasauraus.
Onerahi people came first and second and Whau Valley Group 3 came third. Finally, it was time to go home.

AFL Training
" Ow! that hurt!"
" It is OK, you will get used to it, Jayney."
"" OK, now it is time to try the drop punt."
"" What is a drop punt Jessy?"
""A drop punt is when you point your fingers to the ground and you point one of the x’s to the ground and try kicking the x that is pointing to the ground."
"Now go and try do it with your partner"".
"Now go and try do it with your partner"".
A while later Jayney said "Ah! That hurt my foot!"
"That does hurt, ay, Jayney?"".
"That does hurt, ay, Jayney?"".
"Well that is the end of our session, Guys."
"See ya, Jessie."
"See ya, Guys."

A.F.L. day was a big day so we had to play scarecrow tag. We all were having
fun. I got tagged twice so I had to stand like
a scarecrow. That was the best game ever.
“Sarah!” I called.
She answered, “What?” and I said, “Who
are you getting?”
She yelled, “I’m getting you!”
So I ran away and she never caught me.
I kept running away. She stopped catching me and that was the end of our playing. Later, we had to do ice-cream on a plate. We had a great
time. I was so tired that I walked into the pole.
I kicked the ball very high and stuck it in the tree where no one could reach it. By Jake
We were at school doing work in class when I saw Jess with some AFL balls. I was exited, but we had to wait until after first lunch.
Then, it was our turn. I had a buddy named Byron and we had a warm-up game. It was called scarecrow tag. It’s when there are three people with a ball and they have to touch you with it. We had to do actions like walking, skipping and running. After that, it was hand ball. That’s when you put it on your right hand and you whack it with your other hand. A drop punt is when you point the lines on the ball at your buddy and kick it.
Lastly, we played bullrush and went to class.

HOCKEY DAY.
The whole of Room11 went to play hockey. The first lesson we learned was the slide.
I got buddied up with Nikau. We had a competition to see who could hit the cones first.
If it got hit three times we would have to do 10 press ups.
The next lesson was dribbling. I got told to come up and demonstrate how to do the dribble.
I got it after a while. Then came the next competition. You had to dribble to the other side without getting your ball taken off you. The last thing we did was play a game before the bell rang.
You had to score a goal and you win your game. The team with the most points at the end won.
When we finished, it was time for lunch.
I wanted to do it after lunch, but we couldn't.
