Hi my name is victor. I go to te kura o pakarana. to day is the twenty ninth of october 2012.
Today we had the unveiling of the multipurpose room.
Firstly we lined up out side our class rooms with our chairs. ready to go down to the multipurpose room.
Next we got into lines,sat down and waited for our next instruction. The first thing that got done was a powhiri call
by whaea tania.then she said a small speech.
Then we all went inside the new room and touched the walls and had a look around and made our way out side and back to our chairs. Then whaea tania told us the meaning of Aniwaiwa the name of the new room.
After that we had cookies and looked at the toku toku panel made by aunty Mere,Hinikura and selina. once that was finished we packed up our chairs and went back to class for morning tea. And that is my recount about our multipurpose room.

KIA Ora. I want to tell you about my favourite hobby...rugby, and I'm going to tell you why.
Rugby is a brilliant sport. Firstly you get to do a Hakka. Secondly you get to run heaps and finally my personal favourite. You get to win!!
But there is just one problem! There is always a bigger guy than you. Once this massive prop ran straight at me and dislocated two of my fingers. It hurt!!
So yeah, you do get hurt but I still think it's the most fun sport because you get to play with lots of your friends and have lots of fun.

TREASURE ISLAND
This story starts in the Admiral Ben bow, an inn. Jim Hawkins (played by Quin) works there. Billy Bones (played by Shanty) comes to stay. He has a map. He was once a pirate, a member of Captain Flint's crew. He is visited by Black Dog(Stevie )who fights him. Then the evil Blind Pew (Sasha ) comes and scares him to death.
Jim gets the map. He gets the Goodies, Dr Lives (Charlie ), Mr Dance (Shannen ) and they hire a ship called the Hispaniola. The captain is Captain Smollett (Mikaela ) who gets Long John Silver (Madison ) to collect a crew. Long John Silver is evil and one of Captain Flint's pirates. He collects all the other pirates and away they sail.
On the trip Jim hears of a plot to kill them. When they get to the island the Goodies go to the stockade. The baddies go in search of the treasure. An old pirate called Ben Gun (Zion ) who has been marooned, arrives and joins the goodies .
Jim takes off and sails the ship around the island. The pirates have nowhere to go. There's a big fight. The pirates are winning until they hear Ben Gun who they think is a ghost of Captain Flint. Ben screams horribly..
They all run away and the goodies find the treasure and sail back to England.

AWAROA TRIP
Hello everybody. We are going to Awaroa tomorrow on the Wilson's boat.
I heard that a lot of people go there. When I heard that we were going I was so excited because this is going to be my first school trip. A few weeks ago my teacher gave me some raffles to sell to pay for my ticket and I sold all three cards in two days!
AWAROA RECOUNT

To learn the history of Awaroa,
to get fit
The journey went from:
Well it technically started from the school.
But it also started from Kaiteriteri
The highlights for me were:
The boat, the walk, the swim, a day away from the class room. I loved it all.
The benefits for me were:
To learn,
to get fit,
to appreciate how easy it is to learn these days.

Duffy Theater
Hello everybody. It's me again. Today I'm going to tell you about the Duffy Theater. Ok to start things off I started walking to the rugby club thinking it was going to be a normal assembly, but when I stepped in I saw this big box and a person with a guitar, so I thought there might be a little show, but I was wrong. 5 Min's into the show I finally realised that it was not a little show but a full on show! It definitely was not my favorite show but it had its funny parts. When the show was over I was in great need for a stretch. When I stood up my vision went blurry like it always does when I stand up too fast. so when I got back to class... to be honest I can't remember what happened after the show... anyway that's me signing off.

MARCO
Yesterday we had a visitor named Marco speak to the seniors and the intermediates. He said a lot about magic and dragons and some other cool stuff. When he first came in he said something about bringing your bag everywhere and to always have a bottle of water, a warm blanket, and a flashlight or as the English call it a torch. He then said that he had a magic carpet in the bag. of course I did not believe him but was still curious what he meant. he later on told us about the county on Bhutan. I learned that for many hundred years they believed that the dragon exists. Then he told us if we had ever seen a kings crown a few people put their hands up but not me. After that he said that we could touch the second king of Bhutan's crown! I was really excited at the thought of being able to touch a king's crown.
When he brought it out I just realized how beautiful it was. It was embroidered with pure gold thread with dragons on it. We also got to touch the throne cover. It was awesome.
Hi! My name is Bailey. I like to play cricket-tennis and other sorts of sports. When our class plays games one game in particular we play is Seftos. It's like baseball but with a tennis racket and a tennis ball. This year my goal is to try to win the Delany sports cup person of the year!!

3 The highlights for me were?
My highlights were the walk was different. It took 2hr - 5min Some class mates really needed to go to the toilet. On the boat you get to sleep, cool breeze in your face. The walk was awesome. Some Parklands kids tried to get in front of our tour guide whose name is Whitey. There were bridges that could only take 5 maximum on the bridge. We stopped to look at palm trees which had no nuts meaning they had no pineapples - or - coconuts.
DUFFY THEATRE
Everybody got up out off their chairs. We all lined up outside the door and all walked through the courts to the Huia football club we all sat down on the floor then waited for other classes to arrive.

Actors Duffy and Scruffy did some wicked rapping, dance moves, and a cool DUFFY THEATRE.
