The Duffy show

The whole school went to Tamaki College to watch the Duffy show.
My favourite part of the show was when duffy and scruffy did the Michael Jackson and gangnam style dance moves. My least favourite part was when scruffy said "come and play some rugby with me" and then he said "no, I am trying to read my book". I thought that was dumb because rugby is fun.

Auckland Museum

At the museum I was using a wooden drill to make a hole. The heat that
you can get from this, can also start a fire I found the drill easy to control and turn.

The Rock Warriors retold by Lee

The Patupaiarehe  people lived around the lakes of Rotorua .They were smaller than the maori and had fair skin .They collected food from the lakes,and forest,and loved singing and dancing.
The Tipua were big ,mean and had bad tempers. They wanted all the land of the Patupaiarehe
for themselves. The Tipua giants wanted to attack the Patupaiarehe and take their land and lakes away. The Patupaiarehe people asked their leader for help.
Tongakohu lit a fire on top of Ngongotaha mountain and started chanting his spell. After some time, the Tipua giants began feeling tired and they could not move. Soon they turned into rocks. Finally Tongakohu was able to save his people. And that’s how they have ramained to this day.
