The Lego Story

In the year of 1932 there was a man of the name Oli, he had a wife and four boys, he was a carpenter and his business started to struggle. Sadly his wife died and there was no money for the kids on the following christmas. He wanted to carry on the business, so they will have enough food for christmas.

Oli made new toys. He used wood and he decorated the shop a little bit more, he had to type some things out, but he wasn't very fast, so his son came to help.

A man came in to the shop and would change Oli’s life because he wanted to buy a whole lot of his toys. So Oli and his son got a large order started, but sadly they got a call from the man saying he had no money and was bankrupt and could not buy the toys.

Oli eventually bought a plastic moulding machine for making blocks. This was the start of the lego blocks as we know them today. To this day children love playing with lego blocks because of Oli. 

Typing Test Term 4

I think that I have made a really big improvement to my typing, because at the begging of the year I got 14 WPM and now my score is 62.

Sportmanship

To make sports better, you should play fair instead of cheating in the game. If you are playing sports with your class on the field you must wait in the line and be patient instead of angry. Also always tell the truth to each other in the game.

To be good with your team is to don't break the rules and to be being be friendly with others who are batting don't hurt them while they are playing don't fight with your teams and other teams.

Cake Poem

I love to eat cake, when I mess up my plate, 

Then I go through the gate, and call other people mate.  

Until they all go away.

Manaiakalani Film Festival 2012

Saint Pius went to Sylvia Park for the 2012 Manaiakalani Film Festival, we got there by bus and so did the other cluster schools. All the schools in our session went inside and sat down with their class. Saint Pius was very lucky because we got to sit on the couches, I sat with Monique, Tokilupe and Samantha. The lights went down and the films started.

I was very happy because Angelica did the introduction to present the schools but mostly Saint Pius X. The films were very good, people put a lot of hard work into to them with coloured things and drawn pictures. There was a video that had games that kids our age used to play like knucklebones.

My favourite part was when we sat on the couches because they had very cool lights and my favorite film was room three’s movie ‘3 words’ because I think that we put in a lot of hard work into our 3 words.

Life Education

Today Room Three had a session with our new friend Harold and Lynn in the life education van, we have been learning about the things that are healthy for our body and what aren't. We even saw a body with no skin her name was Tam. We learnt that when you put thing that you eat in your mouth you use your, tong your saliva and your teeth. When you swallow it the food goes down your trought and into your Poko, it means tummy in Maori. Next the food goes into your small digestions, what the small digestions do is that when new food comes on it breaks the healthy parts of the food into little bits and it goes through the blood to keep us healthy. The unhealthy food goes out to some place.
