Wanted dog!!!!!

His name is Buddy and he is a wanted dog. He has brown and white hair. His old name was Whittakers before he came into town.
He is really wanted for his horrible stealing by eating all the yum food which is everything except grapes and soy sauce. Which he hates. All the people have only tried grapes and soy sauce which they hate. He is 3 years old in human years, he has floppy ears and spots that everyone's scared of. He likes to have tummy rubs and hugs. He's wanted all over the world. If you get this dog you can call.

027 033 72543 + you can get $5000,000.
But try and keep away if you can't catch him. By Arielle Russell the newsletter reporter.

Sensei Larry

Yesterday on Zoom we had another Sensei take over our class. He lives in Los Angeles and he has a black belt. He is higher than our Sensei's grade. He told us about this cool move, it's meant to look like a bow and arrow. He told us we can  strike and block at the same time. Next Thursday he will be teaching us again. This Tuesday there will be another Sensei called Mark coming. Can't wait to sigh up for him!!!!

Lock down for Me.

Over the past few weeks it's been a bit boring but I'm learning new stuff. Last Friday it was my dog's birthday, we celebrated it by walking him round  the Rawhiti Athletic  domain. Me and my family played so much games with my dog called Buddy, we made him a vanilla cake. He loved the cake!! Can't wait till his next birthday comes!!!  On Monday I did karate on line with Zoom, we could see Sensei  online with the other karate students. It was really fun but it was scary incase I might hurt myself or break some furniture. Then I heard that we can sign up for a Sensei that's been training for more than 60 years, which will be Fridays blog. Today I played this game called kerby, you had to hit it off the kerb and try to bounce it back to you. If you live in a busy street you can play it with wood for kerbs.

Synchronised swimming

Kia Ora, today I'm going to write about my favourite sport, synchronised swimming (synchro). FINA changed the name to artistic swimming in 2017, most people still like to call it synchronised swimming.
Synchro is known as gymnastics and ballet in the water. The rules have changed by letting boys join as it used to be a girls only sport. It looks like a very pretty sport but it is a really difficult Olympic sport, watch out for it at Tokyo this year if the games go ahead!!!! Why is this my favourite sport?

I'm a synchro swimmer and have competed at the Nationals competition in Auckland and the South Islands in Invercargill, where my team won a silver medal.

Treaty of waitangi

In week 7 for reading we had to do a time line of the treaty  of waitangi. Our goal is think while reading, pick up new information, and come up with new ideas and new thinking. My new thinking is The first celebration is in 1934.
 Iv'e learned  a lot of new things this reading workshop. Do you know anything about treaty of waitangi?

Back to school for 2020
