Rayaan's Highlights of 2013 !

I really enjoyed this year with my amazing class and teacher. I found all the sports day really enjoyable and competitive but most of all the Football and Athletics. Those were 2 days I can never forget especially because I really think those days I do pretty good in. Overall I found the learning and fitness we do with Mr Fourie was great. This class was amazing and one I can never forget, therefore I would like to say goodbye to all students and I wish you all goodluck for next year !

Exposure: Personal Inquiry

Guitar:

What ? : What I want to learn is the basic notes of the guitar and how to play a simple song.

Why ? : Why I want to learn about the guitar is because I always found it really peaceful and nice to listen to especially because I always get to see my mates playing it and it looks like something i think I would really enjoyed if I learnt about it.

Inspiration : My inspiration was this man making a living just  by playing the guitar on the street because he was less fortunate then the others around him. This man was gifted and really deserved everything he got especially because when he got money he wouldn't just keep it to himself, see for yourself :

Here it is :)

Camp Report 2013

I found camp really challenging, fun and interactive. First of all I was frightened of the waterside because it was the biggest one i've seen in my life and then acme the abseiling wall which I basically cried just by looking at it. Coming down from the wall was one of the scariest experiences ever considering I have an extreme fear of heights.

I found all the activities pretty awesome but the one that stood out the most had to be the class event which we did right at the end of camp. We had to use a lot of communication, skill and speed to complete this event. I personally thought we would've won the event but we were just to late to create the full number which was 11 because that was our class number. The first activity was camp cooking. I thought at first it was really gonna bore me but then I found out that we were using the hobo stoves to cook which was pretty exciting. The whole group enjoyed it and also had a great time. Afterwards we started to eat the pikelets which were delicious. We moved on to our second activity which was the initiative course.

The initiative course is a challenge which you have to use a lot of communication. There were 8 activities you had to complete but the most challenging one was the one when you have to get one half of your team to the other side with out any team member off the log.

Overall I think that everyone found camp really fun and enjoyed it a lot like I did.

MAN UNITED SHOCKER!

In the Premier League there was a shocker between two teems both from Manchester, this was a Manchester derby. It was with the two teams Man United and Man City this game was played at Etihad stadium Man City's home ground, every body was ready for the game. Man City struck first with an amazing goal from Sergio Aguero, this was scoed on the 16th minute and was a last footed shot directly to the bottom left corner of the goal. Man City again scored a goal from Sergio Aguero on the 47th minute again to the bottom left corner. At the start of the second half Man City scored another goal from the one and only Yaya Toure making the score 3 - 0. 5 minutes later Man city score again with an awesome gaol Samir Nasri, making the score 4 - 0. but Man United wanted to score so they did, a good gaol by Wayne Rooney.
Making the final score 4 - 1.

Premier League ( Week 5) Liam,

This week there was 1 big scoring game in the Barclays Premier League. It was with Chelsea and Fulham, this game was played at Stamford Bridge ( Chelsea's home ground ). The game started off with a boring first half, no yellow card or red, and no goals. 7 minutes into the second half Chelsea struck, with a good goal by the forward, Oscar. The goal was a left footed shot very close to the goal and straight into the bottom right corner. And in the 83rd minute, Chelsea struck again, with a goal off a corner, a headed pass to John Obi Mikel ( the goal scorer ) he struck it with his left foot, very close to the goal straight into the center of the goal. The final score 2 - 0.

Why we need concrete tables.

Room 11 have been wondering if somehow we can get two concrete tables out side the wet, muddy and dirty wasteland outside of Room 11, 12, 13 and 14. We could have amazing features around them.

Having these concrete tables inbetween the Kereru team will seperate us from younger people so that we can socialize with our mates and also have games such as; Ping pong, Chess, cards and many more.

If it starts raining we could have table monitors to put an umbrella inbetween both tables and get them tooken off every afternoon or we can have the first couple of people that arrive to school to dry the tables and place the umbrella's down.

The tables will help us alot because if we want fresh air while were learning in class we could take a couple paces outside the classroom and sit down on these awesome concrete tables.

In my opinion I think that it is a great idea to have these tables outside the Kereru team because it will help the future and present children in Reremoana to enjoy theirselves while they have time in this amazing school. Finally, if you don't have these tables and designs it won't be a good influence in anyone. Its not loking the best at the moment.

Premier League ( Week 4) Liam, Rayaan

This week there was a shocking game with the used to be top of the table and basically the under dog this game was with Liverpool and Man United this game was played at Anfield this game was definitely a big shock.
This was a very boring game with Man United and some of the best players in the world.  ( Wayne Rooney and Robin Van Persie. ) the first goal was scored in four minutes by Daniel Sturridge of Liverpool this was a very good goal, this goal was header straight to the left corner. The rest of the game was pretty much boring for the next ninety minutes, the final score was 1 - 0 to Liverpool making them the top of the table

Why having an Ipod is so important.

There are many exciting electronic devices people love all around the world such as; Ipad, Ipod, Samsung Tablet and many more. The one that stood out the most for me was the Ipod Touch. It has alot of features on it that you could buy seperately but why waste your money when you can get one item that has everything on it ?

Also one of the life saving features are a gps. If your lost, don't know the way home and can't do anything you could just simply pull out your awesome Ipod, quit out of the game of temple run that was pause, chuck on the gps and cruise back home and act like nothing ever happened.

Finally, in my opinion I think that this item would do everyone good and I really dont see the point of you or anyone else not having one. So would you rather live the rest of your life miserably and without an Ipod...
