Ferdinand Magellan story



Ferdinand Magellan was born in 1480 in Portugal. The Government of Portugal disagreed with Magellan so he went and asked the king of Spain that if he could have a boat and money like Columbus, as he was going to circumnavigate the world to get to India. Magellan's boat was called Victoria because it meant victory. By 1494 the Spanish couldn't sail past Africa because the route was owned by Portugal. Magellan sailed west through the Atlantic ocean and into the strait of Magellan to discover the Pacific ocean. Magellan's crew circumnavigated the world but tragically he never made it past the Philllipines, as it was here that he was killed in a battle.

Our Pirate Story

Our group put our words from our stories about pirates in wordle net.It was cool because we liked to see our story in wordle. When you see big writing that is an important word from our stories, smaller words are less used ones.

The Destruction of Rich Town



On the day we made our volcano it was cool because the dough was gooey and blue. We wrapped the dough around a jar and started to smooth it out. I enjoy the things we made for our volcano. We made little houses, trees and mountains. It was fun making the volcano. I learnt that if you knead the dough will go smooth. I will change by not being bossy. We can do better by not being silly. Our voice over was okay but we could do better by adding more information.

What did I enjoy about it ?What i enjoyed about our volcano movie is exploding MT Hunter.
What could we had done better?What we could had done better is stick together as a team bit more.

I liked to erupted Mount Hunter. What we had to do better is to stick as a team. The part that we did well is drawing our pictures. What I learnt is how to erupt a volcano. What I would change for next time is to not play around when we are still have to finish our work.

MTV Volcano

We wrote songs about what we had learnt about volcanoes.
We reckon this is a choice way to help you remember facts and to show off all the great stuff that we learnt.

You Never Know When Someone is Watching


Someone is always watching the cool things that we get up to. Perhaps one day we might just make the All Blacks!

Studamyer's Favourite Thing at Camp



Racing is fun, playing with your friends because you might win or lose. That's what we got to do at skate land. I was no where near the leaders because I was too slow and the leaders were too fast that they nearly over lapped me

Capture the Flag


Under the relentless sun Starford dodged, sidestepped and dived for the trophy. He got the flag and dashed for the line.

While Jesiah twisted and turned he distracted the other team and I was able to scurry like a rat over the line and score a point.

“Jesiah hurry up and rescue me.” I yelled scarily, as I waved my hands up. “What? I’m coming” screamed Jesiah intensely, as he waited for a gap in the defense.
