Family Fun.

Family Fun!
By Mya Gray

The giggles so loud,

In this very big crowd.

The light filled up the room,

It was as big as a broom.

The fence so long

Like a round of ping pong.

Her laugh was a squeak 

His glass had a leak.

The glass pulled itself down,

It was so very loud.

Boom! Crash! 

The glass went smash!

She was so hungry,

She could eat Harry!

They walked, which felt like a million hours,

Once they got there they felt they had powers.

They were one of a kind,

It stopped them from going blind.

Should year 7 and 8 perform at polyfest?

Should year 7 – 8 perform at polyfest? This is a very undecided question. But in my opinion I think 100% yes! I think this because everyone should get a change to experience and perform at polyfest, it would also be good if you could practice performing before high school and if you experience it early it wouldn’t be as nerve wracking when you are older. If the year 7 and 8 get to perform it would be absolutely amazing!

The Night Sky

Its as dark as night,

the moon and stars were so very bright,

there were determined to shine,

Like a bright light.

The galaxy is shimmering,

Meteorites flying,

across the sky,

At the horizon light.

Digital art

– Digital Art –

These past few weeks we have been learning about digital art. For this subject we have learnt about different art techniques and how to work digital apps.
When did it our teacher first explained what to do then off we went with our art.

I started off by opening the app Canva and choosing a background and pattern to customise my digital poster. Then we proceded to add various images of different birds, trees, flowers and landmarks. While doing this we had to resize to focus on 3D and prospectives. I had loads of fun well doing this! Once finished I did a few last touches and made sure to include everything. After that I showed my teacher and handed it in.

I loved doing digital art and I hope to do more. Here is my art.

Whananaki

My weekend at Whananaki was awesome!

It all started with a 3 hour trip. We stopped to grab some snacks and then carried on until we got there. “Are we nearly there yet?” I repeated the whole way. Finally we arrived, it was beautiful and I was so happy!  “Hi Lara!” I said excitedly. Because we were at her beach house.

After a while Scarlett and Ellee came, they came one after another.After that we relaxed and I went to sleep “me too!” Everyone said.

When we woke up we went on a 3k walk and when we got back we went on the biscuit since we were so hot after the walk. We did the same everyday.

That was my awesome experience at Whananaki!

My first few days in Kāhu 2024

My first few days in Kāhu with Miss Rowland have been pretty good but a little nerve racking, all the days so far have been really enjoyable.

We have done PE which was just a few fun games like noodle tag and lots more.

The hapori had a change to also apply for jobs, the ones I chose were, Resource room monitor, food tasic person and PTA ambassador I really would like to be in any of these.

We have also been making some lanterns for our Chinese new year celebration at the celebration we will be selling bubble tea and dumplings, yum! There will also be talks about camp.

So far this year has been great!
