Sonny Bill Willams Going To Canada

Sonny Bill Willams has announced that he will being playing for a team in Canada, the Toronto Wolfpacks. He signed a 2 year contract to earn around 2 million a year and now he will start playing in the European league. I think this will be a good experience for him because he is now playing in a different team and league.

Kiwi Can Jam

On Friday our school had our first Kiwi Can Jam. it was fun being there but there wasn't enough food. I think we did good even though we didn't get anything. I had a lot of fun and I think everyone else did. Have you ever been to Kiwi Can Jam?

A Fire In The Sky City!

A fire has broke out in Auckland's SkyCity convention centre. The fire started at around 1:00pm on the seventh floor before spreading to the sixth. One person was sent to the hospital in serious condition. The SkyCity has evacuated the entire Auckland area forcing people to leave the sky tower, casino, all SkyCity hotels and resturants.

Silver Ferns Beat Australia

The Silver Ferns just beat Australia by one point with the score at 54-53 . With the scores all tied up Ameliaranne Ekenasio made the winning shot in the last 20 seconds. The Silver Ferns were losing, but then made a miracules comeback. Both teams played a great game. It was a close match and both teams tried there hardest, but in the end the Silver Ferns found a way to win.

My Holiday

In the holiday I went to the movies in the city with my mum, three sisters and my three cousins. We watched Angry Birds 2 because my little sisters were with us. I thought the movie was boring because it was just boring. After that we went to KFC and ate it at Mission Bay and played on the park.

Netball

On  Wednesday Talia, Leanah, Leaaepeni, Madisyn, Augeer, Konzay, Mary-Ruth, Kate, Kotipi and I went to the netball interschools tournament. Our first game was against St Pius and it was a draw.  Then our last game was against Panmure Bridge and we lost by two points.

I didn't care much if we won or lost as long as I had fun with the rest of the team. It would've been the best tournament we've went to if we won.

Fundraising To Travel Further Distances

Around $92 million in funding to take people further distances by train so you don't have to waste your gas only your money. The train will go from Hamilton to Papakura and then to Britomart in Aucklands city.

Wood Works

Yesterday at tech I think I almost finished my project because I added the mirror on it but I'm still not sure. Mr Grundy usesd a glasscutter to cut out the shape of the mirror to the perfect size.

After that he put two types of glue on the back of the mirror. We had to wait for it to dry so he put it on the front of our project and put two rubber bands on each end of the mirror to hold it in place.

🛥Kayaking🛥

Today my class and I went on a trip to Wero Whitewater Park and it was fun and hilarious at the same time.

The fun bit was the competition I had with my classmates, and the funny bit was watching people falling off their kayak. I was hoping to stay longer or go on at least one of the courses, but sadly we didn't.

The first one to fall was Konzay, then Sosiua and then me. I fell twice! The first time was because I was out of control and the second was because Mario pushed one side of my kayak and there was too much wieght on that side so I did the same to his one.

Have you ever been kayaking?

Wellington Crowned NZ's Fittest City

A news report ranked Wellington as NZ's fittest city. The rankings were made by AIA Vitality, and based on public health study it released last year.

I think that it's only the fittest city because of all the steep hills they have to walk, jog, run or sprint up. I think when I grow up I'm going to move to Wellington so I can get fit, and because AIA said that 10 percent of  deaths world wide are caused by physical inactivity.

Countdown Stops Selling Energy Drinks

Countdown has just made a huge mistake by making enegy drinks age restricted. Well at least I think it's a mistake because if they make these amazing poducts age restricted, they won't start making profit like they used to, and what if some people haven't heard of this news they'll just be wasting their gas and they'd probably never go there again.

What do you think of this news?

South Africa Snatch A draw

Yesterday South African half-back Herschel Jantjies scored in just the minute against the All Blacks, and Andrea Pollard with the conversion to tie it all up.

I can't believe that Andrea Pollard got the coversion with all of the presser in his hands I bet if I was in the All Blacks I would've made them win.

Is Lake Tekapo In For A Name Change?

What??? Mckenzie District's Deputy Mayor, James Leslie said that Lake Tekapo is spelt incorrectly and was meant to be Lake Takapo.

I think this is a big mstake because everybody is already used to Tekapo. What about the tourists, won't they get mixed up too?

Do you agree or disagree?

Sad But Fun!

Last Friday my family and I went to Paradise Ice-Skating in Botany. It was hard at first but then I started to get used to it.

My brothers, cousins and I were having a race around the ice rink but then my brother ran into me and we both slipped, nothing hapened to him but for me I sprained both my rists and he didn't even care. 

After that, I couldn't go to my rugby game the next day so, it was boring me for the rest of the holidays.

😎I Helped Save The World😁

Yesterday my school and I had the privilege of going to the Tamaki Estuary to pick up the rubbish left behind from heartless people.

I learnt that glass was made out of sand that was melted. My favourite part was when we were playing on the new and improved playground.
