The update!

So we've been making our draw string bags for 3 weeks,  some of us only need to sew the bag all together. It was really fun making the bag.  By the way, I already finished designing and painting it. 

My draw string bag is for my phone and the pocket is just for some extra stuff.

It was our break,  I looked for my friends to have a chat with them and also to play.  

Here is the pocket...

National Anthem of New Zealand Research Team

Jaz, Kody and I have been working hard for this research, it turned to a success, I'm proud of my team.

They're really nice to work with.  We searched the history behind the national anthem of New Zealand.  "Why we have a national anthem?", "who wrote God Defend New Zealand and who set the music", "what was the New Zealand's national anthem before God Defend New Zealand" and "when was the national anthem made?".

We really worked hard on this and we are looking forward for your comment! :)

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Video with Addyson

It was Monday, it was time for our Cybersmart!.  I partnered up with Addyson, First thing we did was to write our plan and then write the list for our tips.  After that we ready ourselves and then start doing the video, the first video was good but wasn't good enough so we has to restart and tried and tried again until we have the perfect video.  Even though we kept messing up (in a good way), we kept trying and trying.  It went great and I think we both were confident and resilient.  Don't give up.

What I learned: being confident and working well as a team.

Here's the video...

Let's Get Creative!

So for the past few weeks we've been doing tech, my class is the Soft Material.
Today we did some painting, we painted some shapes and figures.  First thing we did was to get the materials we needed, And then we started experimenting some shapes and colours.  Finally, at last, I found the shape that I liked, it was a rose and it looked pretty cool when I tried dabbing and painting on the stencils until it's completely coloured.
It is use for my phone.
After that we took our materials out, we only have one chance to paint on our fabric.  I was really nervous but I just focused on my work, trying not to get distracted by anything or anyone.
We are doing it to learn how to use fabric for sewing, painting and etc.....Here is my finished product/here's my work of art.

And another one...

Fun day with my fam!

When all the year 7's when to sailing, I didn’t get to come but no worries.  My family and I had some bonding time, we had picnic.  Of course I was sad because I didn’t get to come to sailing but that’s alright.

My relative came with us too. We had picnic at Hagley Park and after that we had a party at my aunt's house. We ate cheesecake with oreo crust, we watched movies but before going to Hagley Park my parents went to work first. Okay let's continue what we started. The movie we watched was a Filipino movie, it's called "Extra Service" by Arci Munoz, Coleen Garcia, and Jessy Mendiola. It's about 3 spy girls who needs to bring back the three gemstones of the Philippines, the Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao gem.
The movie was good, it was 9:30 pm already, we were really sleepy so we had to go home.
We had a lot of fun.

Do your best! Athletics Day!

Yesterday was Athletics day, first thing we did was sprints, I was so happy when I got 3rd place. It didn't matter what place you got at least you finish.  I got to the girls finals, all of the competitor were fast, I think I got 5th place in the last round of sprints.  After that we went to eat our morning tea, a couple of minutes later, it was time to do the rest of the sports.  First we did long jump, it was fun!, I still don't know what place I got, probably like 4th place? or 3rd?, I don't know.

After the long jump we had to rest to the rest area, next thing we did was shot put, and I don't know what place I got, I think I wasn't in the top 3, but that's okay.
After the shot put we rest and ready for the next one. The next one was long distance, we had to do 4 laps of the field, I think I got 7th or 8th or 9th place. Ms. Lee had to put dots on our hands so we know how many laps we did, so no one can cheat.

After that we headed to the rest area, I was so puffed after the long distance, I thought I was going to faint.  When we were resting, a bad thing happened, I broke my hat, dun, dun, dun!. After that we did discus throw, I really liked it though, and I wasn't in the top 3, I don't really mind not being top 3.
It was time to do the last thing, we did high jump, before that we had to let the year 6 boys finished, one of the people who got through the finals was really good!. One of them almost injure his leg, he cried, that was painful, and then it was our turn, I kept on trying and trying until I gave up, it was too high for me.  We finished Athletics day and we get to eat our lunch, the Athletics made me hungry, yummy!!!. And it was time to go home.
