Hat Thinking Net Book Reflection

In Year six we use net books.  We are in our second year of this approach to learning and I could never have imagined school without a net book. we really owe it all to the corporations that helped us to 
reach this achievement.





Some cons about our netbooks are no movie and animating programmes. We are a creative school and animating is a major part of our learn create and share process as well as movie making. Another Problem is the mouse pad and it is hard to draw with so that is why we need mouses.







In the future I could use mine as a gift because Chromebooks will be in soon. We really need mouses and movie and animating programmes in the future and we could solve that by searching the internet and use the internet programme to do so.

So that is my netbook reflection for year six 2012.







Camp Bentzon Rocks!

This is a Movie To show how cool camp was.

Three Minutes Of Closed Fields Effecting Us All

Last term our class was inspired to create a movie about the greif of other people. My friend Wyatt and I created this movie to show how closed fields effected our school and what we would like to happen. Watch this movie and listen to other people's opinion.

Telecom Christmas Tree Lighting Thanks !



Can you believe that Telecom gave us an opportunity to go to the Telecom Christmas tree lighting at Victoria Park. We all enjoyed our free food given to us and buying lots of waffles and Ice-Cream. On a freezing cold night.

We listened to Titanium and two other artists and listened to Oscar Kightley ( albert off siones wedding. ) We wished for Santa to bring us stuff. My Nana Angelo (little brother) And I Enjoyed ourselves.

Oscar Kightley Talked to santa and told us how to turn on the tree. We had to Say Ho Ho Ho. We tried the first time it went a quarter 
Thank You Telecom For that wonderful time and a nice time for me and my family. I have really enjoyed that time and eating delicious food. I really dig listening to Titanium and colouring But to sum it up in three words.Thank You all !

Camp Bentzon Sad Times

Oh man. I can’t believe it’s over, all those fun filled adventures and delicious meals Followed by a great concert. But still Camp Bentzon is over. all those journeys and thrilling sites we are now at school sweet school.

But it was so fun before it was over and one of the best things for me would be wallaby spotting with my two friends Jacob and Isara and Miss garden was our adult.We saw a wallaby up in the hills. Isara chased one and one near the confidence course.

Another highlight was eating Mr Coop’s Delicious meals and especially his bread. His hot dogs were yum. Burgers were delicious. and our last meal of filled rolls and chocolate fish, but every breakfast I would have muesli with fruit and honey.

A thrilling new activity for me was sailing. I learnt how to solo sail and a lot of helpful techniques and tips. We sailed to a pontoon then to typhoon a orange buoy and back to our green boat shed.

We also completed a confidence course. It wasn’t that hard to complete it because we only had to climb up a slant way ladder, and a rope ladder, monkey bars, swinging on a rope to a bank, a rope bridge and then one when you balance to a bunch of hanging tyres where you swing across them to a rope when you then slide down.

We also tried a lot of different activities such as kayaking, raft making, volley ball, bush baseball, bivouac, spotlight, Rippa rugby, Bombing off the pontoon and wharf, orienteering, Burma Trail and movie night.

unfortunately our four nights there are over we will see Kawau island sometime soon. But for now i’ll just concentrate on school and home. I have really enjoyed this experience.

Camp Bentzon Rocks!!!

One more day. Finally the wait is over.

CAMP BENTZON HERE WE COME! Room 17 and other classes are going to Kawau Island tomorrow on a school Camp. The time we have to be here is seven in the morning  to catch the bus.

Kawau Island is 8 km off The Main Land and has barely got population on it But when we go it’s going to be swarming with people. We get there by bus then we get to Sand Spit where we swap to a Ferry where we get to travel across water. That’s gonna be fun.

Camp Bentzon Is going to be fun because there are a lot of cool things to do like Sleeping, Jumping off the pontoon into the water, Volley ball tournaments, adventure play ground and confidence course and a whole lot more.

I am looking forward, to sleeping with my friends and jumping off the pontoon and most of all the delicious food.I am also looking forward to a nice break from home.
I think a challenge for me is getting to school before 7 am to catch the bus. because of the new baby brother it is gonna be hard to do him fast enough. other than that i’m alright.

I am really looking forward to camp and I think it is going to be the best camp i’ve been to. I CAN’T WAIT!!!

Couplet Poems


I hate summer
It’s a bummer
its so boring
even in the morning
summer drools
winter rules






camp is fun
for camp i’ll run
i’ll be swimming
and i’ll be winning
eating dinner
that’s a winner
