Immersion Assembly

On Monday we had an Immersion Assembly in the hall so Mr Burt could tell us about our new topic for term . Suddenly Mr Burt announced the topic it was “Little Critters. As soon as Mr Burt was finished there were team items.
My favorite and funniest team was team 4 because Mr Barks was the queen bee and there were 4 workers, who were dressed up as bumble bees. The working bees were feeding Mr Barks, cleaning him, and cooling him. Also while the 3 bees were dancing the other one was sweeping the floor. Suddenly Mr Barks said “Wait for it” then some babies came out - 4 came out. Then they bowed and went off stage.

Cross Country

As I was waiting for the races to start I could feel my hands shivering with cold. We were on the courts for cross country, waiting our races.
The 11 year old boys went first then we (the 10 year old boys) lined up. Mr Burt got his wooden clapper ready . “Bang!” I heard a clap and we sprinted off fast, to get ahead of the bunch. When I was running the cold air was blowing in my face.
We got to the gate and it was muddy my feet were sinking in to the mud and they were going cold like ice. Then my friend Waata caught up to me and we were talking for a while then I sprinted off again. As I was going around the corner I was slowing down because I felt tired so I started to walk started to walk.
I could see the finish so I put on a burst of speed . People were cheering as I was running through the finish line.

Immersion Assembly

In the Assembly I saw the teachers dressed up as pirates. Miss Burne was dressed up as James Cook. They looked funny but I still wanted to know what the topic was . Mr Burt told us it was Mighty Mariner. I said to my self "What is mighty mariners?" . Then team 1 came up a and they showed a movie about them going on a waka but they were siting down. Their movie finished and then team 2 came up. Mrs She was dressed up as a pirate and Mrs Burne was dressed up as James Cook. First Miss Burne was talking. She said she was James Cook then Mrs She was talking. She said she was a pirate then she was saying to Caption Cook she wanted an i-phone. She finally gave Mrs Burne a hug. THE END

Bowling Pin

Standing straight like a soldier I am waiting to get bowled over by the bowling ball. "Oh no I hope I don't get smashed to the ground," I think to my self. I start to feel scared and nervous. How can I get out of here.? Suddenly I heard the bowling ball roll then it bounced to the side. I was not scared but then It bounced back and I got bowled over.
