My first day of school

Today we had 40 minutes to write about our first day of school. From looking at our writing we are going to set some writing goals for the term

The sun was up shining into my eyes through the tiny small windows in room 12 as I had to introduce myself. “Hi my name is Dillon” I said nervously, thinking that the students was going to laugh. After all it wasn’t too bad and I felt pretty comfortable too.

“It’s time to do some writing” M’s Mckinley said to all of us. I was pretty scared because I didn't really get taught that well from the previous school. It was really nerve racking, not knowing what to do. But as soon as she turned around and walked to me I felt even more scared not knowing what she was going to say. She asked me “do you have much experience about writing” I replied “not really” then she goes “well ok thats alright thats what this lesson is going to be about”. Ring!!! Ring!!! the bell went for morning tea. “Well have to do writing after morning tea” the teacher said.

Springbok Tour in Nz

“1 2 3 4 we don't want no Springbok tour”!!! cheered our united protest team. We held banners proudly in the air as we marched through the rampage. It almost felt like world war 3. We weren't allowed in the stadium so we ended up ripping the netting of the fence and raiding the field. All sorts of cans were getting thrown at us half full and full. We proudly carried on cheering at the top of our lungs.



Get of the field, the rugby fans shouted with frustration but we still held our mana as we were sitting down. A couple minutes later the police showed up and to be honest I was sacking it. I memed to myself I hope I don't go to jail but they didn't look like they were going to be nice so I ran and gapped it down the road. “Im safe” I said to myself.



The reason why all of this happened is because of the Springbok tour. I really didn't think they should have come because it caused a whole lot of drama and it also divided the county. I blamed it on Mr Muldoon (Nz Prime Minister)  because he was just selfish and just wanted votes. He didn't even care about blacks in South Africa not being able to vote.

After all the marching, fighting (RAGE) and more the protesting was all a success stopping the Hamilton game. I felt proud and well supported the whole way. We all cheered happily and walked away like nothing happened.

My Reflection Polynesian Woodprints

Yellow Hat - The things I enjoyed?
One thing that I really enjoyed about this creative polynesian art strand was carving into the wood, the reason why was because it was a first time experience and a good challenge.

Black Hat - Which things didn’t I like?
The thing I disliked was printing because you had to do it 6 times on a paper and that was only for one color.

Green Hat - What was something interesting about this week?
The thing that was really interesting for me was learning about the polynesian art and the hard pronouncing names.
White Hat - What did I learn?

One thing that I enjoyed learning was how to hold and use carving tools.
