year 8 camp

As the night was coming to an end our final event was Approaching and I couldn't wait until what we were going to do we were going to set up a campfire just outside the camp in the paddock because it was our last night at madison camp. We were going to sing songs and hang out with all your friends.

We all hopped into our groups and started to think of some songs that we called sing we all had a vote for a song. The song that we had to pick was a song that everybody knew and called sing to so it was really hard because not everybody knows the same songs as everybody else and we all liked different kind of songs. But there was one song that I thought of and I knew that everybody knew it rude by magic.

Making our way to the camp fire we sit around it. I sat with my friends we all were excited about each others songs. First off we sang a song from school to get the mood going as everybody was singing the teacher says our name to come and sing our song. I was really shy but I got and sang any way as we finished it was just in time for I jump on my bed and started going to sleep as I was sleeping I was trying to dream what our day was planned for tomorrow.

Tangled pattern art

Tangled art pattern

Last week class panuba did a tangled pattern art because our theme for term four was art attacker. So our teachers thought it was a good idea to do a tangled pattern art which represent our culture and where we came from.

My  piece of artwork was a maori designed which had koros and different kind of patterns. I liked my friends design as well because it looked so cool but I know that my one is better.

After a while I had  finished my design and then had to go over it with felt pens to make it more spectacular.

When I finished my piece of artwork I had to give it to my teacher ms paget so she can put the art work by all the other wonderful art that class panupa did. The next day everybody gathered in the class to look  at our art.

Soccer

Soccer

These past few weeks  every Monday Class 5 have been doing Soccer with our instructor Sophia who plays for a Soccer Team. The first session we had was on the first week of school. At first It felt boring but when I started to learn how to play the game I felt like I was living under a rock all these years.

Most of the time that we have been doing soccer I have been learning new skills like the 3 man move and the quick counter attack these skills are mainly for beginners that are just for beginners like me.

On the second to last week I think was one of the best weeks that we I ever had in soccer because we got to play an actual game where teams were competing the teams were Chilli,Brazil,mexico and more that I can not remember But the team that I was is Chilli.

Sadly this was only last chance to play soccer with Sophia but we all know that this session will be the best this year.Luckily we got to continue  with our last weeks games that we were playing. As we were building up to the end of the session we had the finals which was mexico vs Brazil sadly my team had not came first but luckily not last ever we came third which is not bad either.

Colors of Today

Colors

What are the primary colors: The Primary colors are yellow, red and blue they are really useful colors because they can make whole knew different colors when you mix them together like this .

blue/yellow equals green

red/blue  equals   purple

yellow/red  equals orange

And those colors are call secondary colors.You get secondary colors by mixing primary colors with Secondary. these  are also amazing colors but these colors make more complicated colors which are called tertiary colors which they are.

blue and green

red and purple

orange and yellow

red and orange

blue and purple

green and yellow

All of these colors here are amazing colors But the one color that stands out for me is red and orange because that are so fascinating colors. When I think about colors i think about the world and how we would be without green,red,blue,yellow and so on

and how the world we be just pitch black.

A.F.L Sports

Research on the country?

The History of Australia refers to the history of the area and people of the Commonwealth of Australia and its preceding Indigenous and colonial societies. Aboriginal Australians are believed to have first arrived on the Australian mainland by sea from Maritime Southeast Asia between 40,000 and 70,000 years ago. The artistic,musical and spiritual traditions they established are among the longest surviving such traditions in human history.

Rules:  A.F.L is a sport played between two teams of eighteen players on the field of either an Australian football ground Or a modified cricket field, or a similarly sized sports venue. The main way to score points is by kicking the ball between the two tall goal posts. The team with the higher total score at the end of the match wins unless either a draw is declared or a tie-break which then will go into a golden point.

Skills:

Understand the basics of the game. Australian football, or "footy" as it is known the ball is also often referred to as the footy is played on a large oval field 135 - 185 meters long from goal and 110 -115 meters wide and has four large goalposts on each side of the field. Points are scored by kicking goals, which occurs when the football is kicked between the 2 middle goalposts, and behinds, when the ball is kicked through the outside goalposts. Goals are worth 6 points and behinds are worth 1 point. There are 18 players on each side, with 3 interchange bench players and 1 substitute on the side. The ball can be disposed of either by kicking or handballing bumping the ball with the fist similar to volleyball, and goals can only be scored by kicking the ball through the goalposts.

Equipment:

The equipment you need for AFL is football boots, AFL shorts and a AFL singlet. The most important thing you need is a mouth guard. You can have a head guard if you want to use one.
