her name was chanel.The first basket ball mov was drebbel the ball around the your legs,

after we started to play games the first game we played was drebbel tag , drebbel tag

is like ball rash.First you need to line up on the court then you call they name then

you need to run and then you  the ball to them and tag them with your hands.

After we played ship ,shark ,shore. Ship , shark , shore is a game that you stranded

on the line on the court then the coach calls out  ship ,shark or shore then you run
but ship means run to the lift and shark means run to the write and last of

all shore means run lift or write.After playing ship ,shark, shore we played

If I were an animal

If I were an animal, I would be a Gorilla because Gorillas are strong and intelligent.

Sometimes they can be good and friendly like me. Gorillas are big and they have strong muscles

I want to have strong muscles too and that’s why I want to be a Gorilla.

skin

Lyrics for Fasi, Setaita and Litia

we have skin

skin, but sometimes we get scabs.

If you get a cut

scabs protect your wound

so that it can heal, and  

get new layers

layers of skin

When does it heal?

Sometimes you feel

an itching sensation

but it is the creation

of the new skin formation.

The scab grows because the blood

from the cut doesn’t want to flood

its got to clot

bleed not

platelets join force and scab to heal us.

As We Welcomed the Waka

WALT: Write a Recount about Malama Honua

On Wednesday 25th March, Glenbrae School went to Pt England Beach. We went there to welcome the waka and how did we welcome them by sing with pride.  

The songs we sang to the waka were E Oho ,He Honore, Nga Waka.

There were students from Pt England, Stonefields, Tamaki College, Tamaki Primary,

Glen Innes Primary, St Pius X, Kura Kaupapa , Ruapotaka, Pt England and Panmure Bridge.    

There were 2000 kids in total who were there to welcome the Waka (Boat). 

First we gathered our hats and walked to the Glenbrae hall. We sat in our

lines as we got ready and then we got up and walk in our lines and followed the Teacher. Finally we made it out of Glenbrae. We walked all the way until we saw Tamaki college walking there

too. After we made it to Pt England Beach, we saw that there were 12 Schools all together. Then we went to sit on the grass and we listened to the people who came out of there canoe. They told us when to sing to the Waka. We stood up and then we got ready to sing to the Waka. When we were singing we were trying our best and I felt liked it was one of the best songs I have ever sung to the Waka. It was a great day.

      

In Flanders fields the poppies blow

Between the crosses row on row,

That mark our place; and in the sky

The larks, still bravely singing, fly

Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago

We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,

Loved and were loved, and now we lie

In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:

To you from failing hands we throw

The torch; be yours to hold it high.

If ye break faith with us who die

We shall not sleep, though poppies grow

In Flanders fields.

by Lieutenant Colonel John McCracken
