2021 Prize giving
Prize giving was so exciting. I liked how the students were so surprised
when their name was called out. I was shocked when I got
called as a prefect for next year. Some of the audience clapped
joyfully and some didn't because they wanted an award.
I was delighted when I got awarded for the new leadership
award - I also even got a trophy. I am looking forward to be a good
role model to the little kids as a prefect next year.

NASA Edition Colouring
It was fun colouring this ship because there were different colours to add to it.
What was hard about it was you couldn't get the exact colour to colour it.
Did you know this space shuttle Atlantis launches for the STS-135 mission.
This was there last mission. Information about it: Space Shuttle Launched

Baking Cakes
Last week our class done baking. Baking is cooking something sweet.
We baked a lolly cake and a apple cake. What you need for the apple cake was basically apples also
what you need for the lolly cake was basically lollies. It was fun baking because we worked together baking
it as a team . Some of my class baked and some of my class didn't because they had learning to do.
The apple cake was my favourite because the lolly cake was to sweet.

Learning Log Wk 5
What am I grateful for? How am I feeling today?
I am grateful for having a chrome book and stationery from the school to work on my learning. I am also really excited to go back to school and being able to see my friends from a distance. It will be weird when I wake up early in the morning because if there was no school we would be waking up around 9:00 and our school usually starts at 8:55 for our learning.
I am feeling great to start on my learning with others in my class.
What are my goals today?
My goals today are to help other people with their learning, and to also throw out ideas that my classmates could use.

Pancakes Friday
Renei, my teacher and I made pancakes on our live class call. My pancakes didn't exactly go the way I wanted it to. The first one just tasted raw. I think I wasn't cooked properly. It was still a lot of fun - I didn't get any pancakes to eat but I had some breakfast.

My grandad
This weeks task is to write about someone close to you. My one was about my grandads hands,why I did it is because my grandad passed away last year but I didn't get to write about him.
My grandads hands by D.J
My grandad's hands
are wrinkly lines racing up his body;
his back,is a bony line up his neck;
his legs,won't be able to move for long.
His laugh is soft and pale;
his breath,is like fire because he would always eat mint.
Sleeping
quietly on his dusty,old chair,
my grandad
is watching over us in heaven.
