Netball De'Vyne

Netball. The only sport I hate. Netball is a game that show ball skills, and technique. Last Thursday room 21 went to netball to learn more about it (for people that do not know). Half of the class had no bibs and the other half had bibs on, so you would know which side they were on. Liz the instructor showed us how to work out our bodies in a hot sunny day. It was boring. We all had to hop on the circles and x. My partner was Matthew. We both had to learn how to intercept a ball. We both got good at it and think like we were pros.

Jumping up for the ball was exciting and fun, but sometimes its so hard because I’m short. Shawn and I were passing the ball so no one could intercept. Shawn and I were laughing because he had to go back in line. After that Matthew and I went to enjoy the breeze under the shade. The sun was as hot as lava coming down to destroy our school.

After we had to intercept the ball we played a game that wasn’t fun at all. It was so dumb that I never want to do it again. Some of my friends were on the other side. That made it boring. After we had our game the boys said that we won just to be funny, but actually it was the girls.

We all packed up and put our bibs away for the next class to enjoy their game. I went to get some water so I don’t get dehydrated. So thanks Liz for showing us how to have some fun. But next time its going to be worse and boring.

Three P's With Treaty Of Waitangi

In 1840, on the 6th of February the English came over to NZ to make a treaty with the Maoris. William Hobson and his crew came in their boats and ships. The Pakeha people wanted to make this treaty so they can bring peace between the Maoris and the English settlers.

Hone Heke was the first one to sign the treaty of all 40 chiefs. The English people wanted to make this agreement so they can take over NZ. But The English people promised if the Maori sign the treaty the English would keep the Maori safe.

The Three P’s are very important, Protection, Partnership, and Participation. First off we are going to talk about Partnership because that’s my favourite. Partnership is about helping one another and joining a team.

Now Next we are going to talk about Protection. Protection is like when you see American football game, you would see how the person is blocking another so he’s protect the person so he don’t get hit. That’s what Protection is to me.

Last of all Participation. Participation is Something that you could join in something. Like joining in a rugby game.

Something About Myself

Hello my name is De’Vyne & I am going to tell you about myself. First off I am going to tell you how old I am. I am 11 years old & going to turn 12 this year in March the 11TH. My favourite sports is Rugby League, B ball, and others. My favourite take away is Carl's Jnr much like most of my friend like to eat. I like to play with all my friend on the Field. I like to come to school to learn many things instead of waited at home a being dumb.

De'Vyne School Holidays

In the school holidays I went to my aunts and uncle's house. First off I got up and had a fresh breakfast. I had coco pops yummy.... but my cousin had Yum Yum noodles. More like yuk yuk. It was so boring waiting for other people in my family to come. So I played Call of Duty Black Ops (Xbox 360 game) because it was boring. Finally they came. We all got in the car and started thinking of the best fun park in New Zealand ... Rainbow's End.

We all got there safe and my aunt and uncle paid for the bands so we could get in. The most exciting ride I would say is the roller coaster... mean. My cousin and I first went on the pirate ship giving me butterflies, up, down, up, down. I show ed my cousin where to go because itwas his first time. My cousins favourite ride was the invader because he liked how it spun around and around. It felt like this song: “You spin me right round baby right round like a record baby right round round round”.

That's what it felt like around and around. The next ride my cousin and I went on was the Gold Rush. That's like the 7Th best ride that I like , because I liked how the man goes “watch out!” with that cart. But I hated how we were outside because the water kept going on me (hate it).

The best day of my cool holiday happened and I knew it. Going to my uncle’s house was cool and next time its going to be better .

Hard Working Netbook Reflection

This year I have really enjoy having a Netbook because we all are able to play lots of new and old games. I like working on my Netbook because looking up so many things is better than asking someone to tell you. ( if you don’t have a Netbook). Writing on my Netbook is much easier than trying to find a pencil and paper and writing in your book. The best thing about using my Netbook is writing, to get more experience for this year and the future.

There are many reasons why I like having my own Netbook and one of them is I like how the Netbook looks, two I don’t need to wait for other people to get off the computers because I have my own, and the final one three, is I like much more of everything that is good on my Netbook.

As much as I have loved having a Netbook there are some things that I haven’t liked, one is how the Netbook is always slow for me, I hate it because it causes problems that get worse, another thing I dislike about my Netbook is the mouse because every time I draw I always make a mistake.

The hardest thing is drawing with a Netbook mouse. The greatest challenge for me is going to be typing without looking at the keys. From time to time my device freezes. I think we will have our laptops for at least four years. It would be so boring without a electronic device because we’ll have to go back to boring old paper and pencil.

All Blacks Vs France

On Sunday the 23 of October 2011 was the last game of our rugby world cup which was played between the All Blacks, and their opponent team France. I got ready for the game and I put on my All Blacks t-shirt to support the only team I was going for. The game kicked off at 9:00 pm and here we go with Piri Weepu, kicking off to France. The All Blacks was waiting for this day seen 2007, they lost to France in the semi finals 18 points to 20. Tony woodcock got the first try for the All Blacks team, he got it when they were doing the line-out. Piri Weepu was under-pressure, so he kick for the conversion, BUT NO HE MISSED. The number ten from the France kicked off to the All Blacks, with Ma’a Naua the gamebreaker running it up to number ten, then BANG number ten got hurt. The points were still five to zero, I wanted Sonny Bill William to came on, but you just have to wait.

My new friend and I went outside to play hoop at the back. I was amaze that I found a new friend to play with while I am at my uncle house. We went back inside to see what was the point, we got mad it was 7 points to France and 5 to All Blacks. All Blacks got the penalty to kick at goal, with Stephen Donald on our side I know that he has to get it in. He went to kick then Yes he Got it in.

Ma’a Naua went to catch the ball, he went running and the number ten went to tackle him. He got hurt again. I felt sorry for him. The points were 8 to 7 and with 30 seconds I saw The All Blacks kicking it out.

I can wait until rugby world cup 2015

Legend

There once was a boy named Legend, and he lived in a land called Spartacus. His mother died when he was two years old, before she died she gave him a special necklace, that had the ability to hide him away and keep him safe from goblins, monster and evil magical things. His father once was a king of the jungle and his army was trained for to be a true warrior of Spartacus. But one day goblins came and destroyed their village on that day his mother forgot to wear the magic golden necklace, and that's when she died and gave the necklace to Legend which was her son.Only his father and him were the last two survivor in that village and sadly, all the others were dead. After his mother died he promised to himself that he would take revenge from the goblins for the sake of his mother death.
25 years had already past, and his father turned him into a man that is more better than a warrior. One night when Legend and his farther were sleeping, monsters came, took legend away, to their castle, locked him with strong metal chains and put him in a cage. Then the magic golden necklace broke the metal chain and broke the lock then made him invisible so the goblins can’t see him and he killed the goblins one by one. Then he saw the one that killed his mother, he was so angry that his hole face turned red and he was the only one that could see him even if he is invisible but he still succeeded to kill him. Then his farther and him lived greatly ever after.
