Snow White And The Waru And A Half Matific Monsters Production

This term we are doing a production at school. We have filmed the show and made it into a movie.   I am a narrator. The show is about a group of monsters (Lucy, Shae, Oscar, Jack T, Leon, Cody, Jack H and Lincoln that want to go to Hollywood and get in the Hall Of Fame. There is a Kind Queen ( Olivia C) who dies from eating KFC The Wicked Queen (Xanthe) wants to be the prettiest person ever and poisonous Snow White (Elizabeth) with a banana. There is a magic mirror (Cooper) who the Wicked Queen talks to. There is a Prince (Rhys) who comes in on a Horse (Olivia M) and kisses Snow White back to life.  There is also Mr Cowell (Liam) who watches the monster do a terrible audition. There is a Fairy Godmother (Kaya) who grants Snow White one wish. There is the Guards (Isaiah and Jack R) who give the Kind Queen a Burger. There is two Huntsman (Theo and Haki) who take Snow White into the woods. There is two Trees (Louis and Jasper) who are just trees. There is also one Rock (Ben) who is just a rock. There is a Bird (Sofia) who delivers a letter to Mr Cowell. There also two Narrators (Me and Jack S) who read parts of the story out.  Lastly there is Froggy (Connor) who is Snow Whites pet. We have been filming the show in the fort and on the green screen. We have a bunch of songs that different classes dance to. We have filmed the dances outside. We only have a few dances and one scene left to film. I like doing filming because I get out of doing some school work and it is fun to film. I can't wait to see how the movie turns out. Have you ever done a production? What were you in the production and did you like doing your production?

The Para Olympics

 I really like watching the Para Olympics. It is cool to see people with different disabilities do different events in the Olympics. I like watching the running, swimming and long jump. I learnt that Sophie Pascoe has just won her tenth gold medal. She looks really good when she does her freestyle. Sophie only has half of one of her legs. It is amputated from the knee. 


 I just watched Danielle Aitchison do her hundred metre sprint.  She won her heat and qualified for the final.   Have you been watching the Para Olympics and what is your favourite event to watch?  

My Lock Down Activities

One of the things that I do most often is go biking on the cycle trail or to the end of the golf course. We usually go to Greenies Grotto on the cycle trail. The first part is in the sun but the second is in the trees. I like the part in the trees best. We also go for walks and plays at the beach. I like looking for really white stones and funny shaped drift wood. My brother and I like playing in the sand dunes. Sometimes we make big holes near the water and when the water comes in it makes a pool. Then I jump the waves.  We do runs at the golf course and walks. I like finding golf balls. I love doing baking. I make decorated cookies, ANZAC biscuits and afgans. Me and my brother like bouncing on the tramp. Have you done the cycle trail before?

My Daffodil Day Creation

 For Daffodil day I made some daffodils out of cupcake wrappers. First I got 2 different sized wrappers and coloured them in yellow and orange with crayon.  The next step I put some glue on the smaller cupcake wrapper and some added some coloured glitter.  Then I glued the smaller wrapper into the bigger one.  After that I taped a green coloured pencil and stuck it to the back of the wrapper to make a stem.   When i finished I put it in a glass to be a vase.  I enjoyed doing this and my family made some too.  They look.  Have you made daffodils out of cupcakes before or any other art from cupcake wrappers?

Crazy Hat Day

 Today for lock down school we had to wear a crazy hat. I wore a hat from Vietnam. My mum got it when she went on holiday there. It is very fragile because it is made out of rice paper. When it catches the light inside the hat layers it shows pictures to make a story. There were lots of different hats on our google meet.  There were beanies, caps and some of them weren't even hats just things on there heads. We also have a challenge to make a one meter hat so people have to stay 1 metre apart in lock down.  This is what it looks like on me. Have you ever seen a hat like this?

Lock down

 In lock down for school I have been doing cooking, some maths, some writing we also do lots of walks and bikes. I have been cooking ANZAC biscuits and Yoyos. They are super yummy. We have been biking down to the golf course and looking for golf balls. My brother found an angry bird sticker on a golf ball and mum found one in a tree. The worst thing about lock down is that you don't get to see your friends. The first few days we played games and did some reading and walks on the beach. When I was going for a walk on the beach it was really rough and I saw a seal. It was probably tired and came to shore to rest. This week we have to start doing hangouts and more schoolwork.  What do you like doing in lock down?

7 Amazing And Wet Falls

 Last week my family went skiing with some friends. We went to Tekapo. First we went to Round Hill ski area. At Round Hill we went on the Poma. Then we got the half day pass to go on the T bar. The first time we got of half way.  I fell of the T bar lots of times. It was really fun. I went on the T bar with my Dad. I learnt how to go on a T bar. It was my first time. The next day we went to Dobson. At Dobson we went on the chair lift. That was my third time on a chair lift. Mum went into some powder and Finnian followed and got stuck. Dad had to get him out. We went to Round Hill again and me and Isla kept falling off the T bar. I had lots of fun and I got better a skiing.  I was lucky because I got a week off school.  I really enjoyed skiing and it was fun doing it with my friends.⛷ Have you been to Tekapo? Have you been on a chair lift?
