Welcome to room 24 I'm Beau and this is Elena we are your bloggerloggers.  Congrats to all the people who took part in the poetry finals  which are Will, Quillan ,George, Marina and Jake. And We all wish them good luck. ;)  

 We've been doing our post cards for report writing, some of them are looking fantastic. Some people did post cards from faraway like Mexico, Russia, South Africa,  South pole and London. First we needed to write where we are, who to  and 5 thing about the place. Then draw an amazing picture to make it look nice.
 Then we give it to fabulous Mr Williams and he does his magic  but we have to do FIFTY-FIVE of them .Each person does two but Nikau did three ;)                                                                                                                                

We even started our innovation. Our topic is what people made that changed the way people did things, we had four things to choose out of diorama,computer,posters and booklet. Wonderful  Marina and Leia finished theirs, their topic was cameras.They put a lot of effort in it 

We had finished the movie HOLES it was funny :) and sad :(  its about Stanlay Yelnats getting sent to Camp Green Lake but he meets a boy called ZERO actual name (Hector Zeroni ) and that's all we're going to tell you, don't wanna be SPOILER.

On 21st of August  the year 4 had a bake sale in the  U. There were lot of thing to choose from like sushi, cake, cup cakes, muffins etc.  Some classes went with their cute buddies, room 24 helped them with change and some buddies  bought lots and lots of treats, hope your teeth are not rotten ;)

On Tuesday Elena and Shayan did a play on Antarctica with the other ESOL children. It was excellent it must have been hard to memorise all the words. It was about a group of people going to Scott Base  in Antarctica and Shayan got charged at  by a group of  penguins and knocked him self out! That's all for today, BYE!!!

Week 3, Term Three


Hello there I am Josh and I am Leia.And we are this weeks Blogga loggas. our first topic is VERY SAD !!!
Mr Williams did NOT come to school for about ONE AND A HALF WEEKS!! There was water up to our knees with tears. And screaming children bouncing wall to wall. Well it wasn't too bad because we had Mrs Glasson for about a week,because he couldn't find his voice. It seems to be back to full strength now!!


Next we will talk about the Winter Tournament. Well the netball A&B team went,the B team wasn't too bad and the A team was AWESOME !! Because they are going to the Canterbury's for the netball tournament . Now for the soccer A&B team. Congratulations on the A team for also going to Canterbury's . However the soccer B team did not do so well. They had to play some A teams and which was difficult, so they didn't win many games and they came 7th out of 8th. The rugby team  tried hard and came 4th in their grade. The hockey team were fabulous and won so they are going to the Canterbury's too.

Last Friday the soccer B team played Cotswold B. We had 3 players away and 3 who forgot thier gear, so we weren't feeling very confident! Beau, our regular goalie was away, so although Josh said to put Shayan in goal, Mr W tried Quillan. He did his best , but Cotswold were really skilled, and by half time it was 5 - 2. Gulp. Thankfuly Mr W put Shayan in goal.And their best player broke through our defence and took a high powered shot and Shayan jumped up high, and flicked it over the bar. He was diving, kicking and jumping on the ball and was brilliant! They only scored one more goal. Josh scored both our goals but  Shayan got player of the day.And there is a picter of shayan at the bottom.

Our next topic is poetry competition.We still have about 2weeks. And we will just tell you that Leia is doing one called Cat and Josh is doing one called, I think I'm related to Big Foot. We are practising lots and lots. Some of us already memorised our poem!! Emma, Isaac, Marina, Will has and a few more people have. They have to be 12 lines long, and the class competition is in week 5.

YAHO!!!! Casey & Elena are back in our class for maths again. they are using a red text book which is a stage 5. Eden, Beau still goes to Ms Wakefeild. Also Shayan started to go. I (Leia) think Elena & Casey are great at maths.


 Our next topic is about the postcards that Rm 24 is writing.We had to do a draft in our draft writing book.We had to make it up all by yourself . You had to choose where your'e going to send it from and where your going to send it to. It could be from Japan to China or France to Canada it could be anywhere you want.I (Leia) enjoy making the postcards so I think everybody else does too.



Our next topic is AVAILLL.It is sort of like a movie but with subtitles on. The movie was  "Hook"The first time that we did is surprise subtitles, the second was another word hunt and the 3rd was take a dictionary to the movies.
For the surprise subtitles while we watch the movie Mr W will stop the movie and we have to write
 the last subtitle we read.The next word hunt is where there is a word and ours was with and every time you see the word with on the subtitles you have to see what the word after it and write it down.Now for take a dictionary to the movies it is where Mr W puts us into groups of 3 or 4 and numbered us off  and gave us dictionary. He stopped the movie on a really hard word and we would have a competition to see what page in the dictionary it was on. Great fun! The next movie will be tomorrow, we can't wait!

That's all we have time for today, next week we will include a photo of world famous goalie Shayan. Bye for now.  Leia and Josh, (with help from strong silent Will).
