Our Awesome Fishing Trip

It was the best day of my life because we went to Mapau Wharf. First we went to the Aquarium, it was amazing! I got a torch and I looked in the glass with the torch. I saw a scary fish and an octopus. The second thing was fishing. I had to walk on these really steep steps. By Shaun
"Wow! what a cool Spottie, great work Yasmine." Yesterday the Middle Syndicate went fishing off the Mapau Wharf. Liam caught three big fish. I love fishing. Dawn caught Sarah's handline and Sarah was not happy. For lunch I had warm chips and tomato sauce. They were delicious. We also had two delicious choclate fish. by Calista
The tide was right out and we wandered along the sea shore finding all sorts of cool things like unusual shells and heaps of crabs. All too soon our fabulous day had to come to an end and it was time to head back to school with our exciting memories.

"You've got the Power"

Today we went to an anti-bullying programme.
Bullying can be ...
Talking - calling people rude or hurtful names and saying mean things to others.
Texting - sending mean or rude things.
Hurting - physical hurting, kicking, hitting...
Stealing - taking things and playing equipment.
Emailing - using computer chat rooms.
Use your WITS to fix bulling. W means walk away. I means ignore. T means talk to teachers, family and friends. S means stop!
Tools for schools are a large nail to nail bullying on the head and a step ladder to provide the 6 steps of Respect, Duty, Initiative, Compassion, Caring and Courage.
Parrots repeat things. You should repeat things that are helpful.
The magician' s name was Greg but he called himself Elgregroe. His wife was called Sue and it was an amzingly great show. "Treat others how you want to be treated!"

My Rabbit

Coal came to school and he is a rabbit. He stayed at school all day! He came in a push chair. My rabbit is a flemish giant and they can grow to a meter long. My rabbit is black and cost $20. When we got him he was as big as his dad. We are not going to let him have babies with the two girls because the babies will be too big and will kill the mum.So they're in separate cages.
I liked having my rabbit at school. By Ashlee
