Sliver Ferns beat Aussie

Today's current event was about the girls Netball.The Silver Ferns have beaten Australia 54-53 in another trans-Tasman netball classic. People were very proud of the score and I think both Australia and New Zealand played really well. One point a part is very close. New Zealand tried their very best to win the Netball game.The result means that the New Zealand side take a 2-1 lead in the four-match Constellation Cup series. The Silver Ferns trailed by six goals early on. However, the world champions fought their way back in front of 13,497 fans at Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena on Sunday.

Hopefully New Zealand wins their next game.

Wellington Airport:))

I also had another current events to share!! Wellington airport has coloured hundreds of seagulls to help with safety. The seagulls were coloured with food dye to deal with the risk of bird strikes endangering flights. Seagulls have become such a problem that Wellington Airport decided to monitor three landfills around the city to see which is their favourite feeding site.Staff began spraying the birds with the orange, green and blue dye – a different colour for each rubbish dump. The dye washes off in a few weeks but before that, airport staff then logged sightings of the variously coloured gulls. Airport spokesman Greg Thomas said the operation was a success, and wasn’t surprised to find out that most of the birds came from the Southern Landfill.

Current Events!!

Today our class had to share our current event about this week. My current event was about Japan vs South Africa!! I was very surprised Japan lost to South Africa. But then I heard that South Africa has been planning to win the Rugby World Cup for years now. The points were (Japan) 3 - 26 (South Africa). Japan have lost by miles in the Quarter finals, But I think they tried their best and played well. Their are now Four countries currently attending the rugby World cup. New Zealand, Australia, South Africa & England. South Africa have been the champions in 1995 & 2007. Japan have been champions in 1987 & 2015. Hopefully South Africa wins champions again this year!!

Camp Presentation 2K19

Cricket!!

Yesterday, Thursday 16/10/19, Glenbrae School had the opportunity to play cricket with a very professional Cricket player. We played very fun and interesting games that help you with your throwing and your catching. We had different groups and we tired tagging the other team so they can go out so the next team comes on. We also had the opportunity to play Cricket as well.

We had to split our whole class into to equal groups so we could play probably. My group was called "Dinacorn" and the other group was called "Team Six". First the couch had to tell us the rules so we understood the game probably. After the rules both team had to Rock, Paper, Scissors to see who goes  first, Our team won so we had to either choose to field or bat. When we batted the ball we got up to 19 and the other team had to try n beat our high score.

When the other team batted I think they played really good because they had really good batting skills and they all ran really fast. Their high score was 21 so the beat us. Some of our classmates we so angry we lost but I was really proud of "Team Six" because they tired their best and played really well. Cricket is a really fun and interesting sport I do hope we get to play it again.

           

Respect Others

Day 5 - Friday 13 September

Today was the last Morning for us at camp. Everybody woke up super early because we had to pack our stuff so we can put it on the bus. After putting all our stuff in the bus we had breakfast and made our lunch to pack into our lunchbox. Then we got change into the clothes we are using for the whole day. since it was the last day the teachers said big thank yous to Chris, Magnus and Maikey. Mrs Raj gave a little something to Maikey for being a kind and amazing bus driver. Chris gave presents to the best boy and girl student for the whole week of camp.

After saying our thank yous we did a Hongi to Chris and Magness for being helpful caretakers to us all. This day was so emotional for everyone because they would miss camp. We all got on the bus and sad our last goodbyes to Chris and Magnus. We drove for like 20 minutes to Ruapekapeka, as we were driving pass a farm people were cutting down a tree so we had to turn around and go back the way we came from. In the bus we were singing the Waiata and playing music on our class speaker.

In the bus people were playing cards, Singing, Dancing, Laughing and sleeping during the bus ride. Two hours after we stopped at Westfield to have our lunch and go toilet. After driving for a long time we arrived in Auckland and looked at all the pretty views while driving. Minutes after we arrived to school at 2:45 just the right time for school to finish. Before we packed all our bags into our cars we did a haka because Maikey was leaving and we won't be seeing him anymore.

It was so sad because Maikey was very funny and a cool bus driver and everybody would miss him so much. It was pretty emotional as well. People were so happy to see their parents because they missed them so much. Everybody went home missing camp so much.

Camp was so fun and interesting, I think we got to know our class more and we got to mingle together with both boys and girls. I really miss camp and I do hope we get to go back there together so we learn lots and lots of things. Russel, Kerikeri and the Waitangi treaty Grounds is a lovely place to explore and tour around.
