Term 2 Reflection

In term 2, my highlights was egg thinking because me and my group helped each other to make something to protect our egg and also because our egg didn’t crack. Why our egg didn’t crack is because we did a good job to protect it.
Also my highlights was the technology - food because last time I didn’t know anything about food but now I know the bad food and the healthy food to eat and not to eat.

My lowlight for term 2 was when the people didn’t listen to Miss G and also when they didn’t listen to Miss Leaupepe at swimming time.
My other lowlight is singing practise because what we all have to do is just sit there and sing.

I am looking forward to playing badminton because I really like that game. I am also looking forward to doing lots of work on Term 3.

Basic Facts

This week for Addition I got 100 out of 100 right and my time was 3:00.

This week for Subtraction I got 100 out of 100 right and my times was 2:00.

My goal is to try to be fast and accurate and try to beat my time on Basic Facts.

My Story

Hi my name is Catherine and I’m 10 years old and I go to St Pius X Catholic School and I have 2 parents and 1 brother. My brother’s name is Roland and Roland goes to Sacred Heart College and he is 15 years old. My mum is 41 and my dad is 40.


My mum works at Alexandra Park where the horses race on. My mum goes to worked at 9:30pm and she comes back at 11:00. She tries her best at working so they can buy our school stuff.


My dad doesn't go to work because in the morning he has to go and drop me and my brother to school. Also he is not working because my mum can’t drive and so my dad is our driver.

In the morning me and my brother always wake up early and eat cereal and if the milk is finished then my dad will drive to the dairy and buy some milk.My hero is Jane because she looks after me and because if someone hurts me then she is helps me. Also Jane is my hero because she helped me with my work and she always supports me in anything.
Everyday after school Jane always comes to me and asks me if I want to come with her and I said “yes”. When me and Jane work some people came to me and call me names. Jane tell the people to go away and that’s why Jane is my hero!

When I grow up I want to be a teacher so I can teach the kids that don’t know their times tables and their division and also teach them how to spell words that are too hard for them. I also want to be a teacher so I can work hard and helped my parents and also my family too. Also why I want to be a teacher is because I want to support people and send money to the homeless and the poor people that don’t have food, drink, clothes and also a house.


Why I want to be a teacher is because I could raise money for the caritas and also because I want to help the people that sit on the road and ask people for money and also the people that are sleeping there.

What I want when I grow up is to work hard and study hard so I can buy a big house and 10 rooms inside the house and 5 cars so I can try to bring my family to New Zealand and live with them in the big house.  If my family are lots and their are not enough room then I’m gonna buy them new house and new car and I can give them money when they don’t have food or clothes.

I could also go to the countries that I haven’t gone to and I can go and visit the poor and raise money to buy them food and water and clothes.

Hot Spot Big Bad Wolf.

Beware! The Big Bad Wolf has been spotted near St Pius X Catholic School! He is a coarse fur wolf who loves getting into mischief. He has blood soaked
fangs and his favourite part of the body is the heart. When he eats the three pigs he is going to use his tallons to eat the three pigs’ heart. Also the Big Bad Wolf has big muscular and he can carry the fat people and also lots of horse.  When the Big Bad Wolf needs to eat the pigs than he is going to be nimble so he can catch fast the pigs.
The Big Bad Wolf has razor sharp fangs and he can easily hit people with his head.
The Big Bad Wolf is very cunning because he tricked the little girl.

The Big Bad Wolf is so nasty and dangerous because he tricked people and because he ate people. Also the Big Bad Wolf is disgusting he drank the blood of the three pigs. When the Big Bad Wolf saw the three pigs then his eyes turned to like he’s a vampire. He is ugly and he looks like an evil likes a monster.

Jonny's Visit

On Tuesday the 18th of June, a visitor came to our classroom and his name was Jonny Wartman. Jonny Wartman is a Graffiti Artist, he came to our classroom and he told us about himself.


Before Jonny lived in Christchurch but now he moved to Auckland because there's more work in Auckland. He travels around the world painting pictures for the people that want him to paint them something.


Also we asked Jonny what's his favourite rugby team then he said that his favourite rugby team is the Crusaders because they are from Christchurch, but Jonny said his favourite team is the Warriors.


When Jonny was young he watched cartoons movies and he thought that he could draw the picture of the picture that is on the cartoon. Jonny said what he did first is that he chose the outside picture then he drew the inside and after that he can colour it.


After he told us about himself then he told us if anyone want to asked him some question. Then Dalaney put his hand up and he said “ Who inspire you?” Then Jonny said that his parents inspired him and sometimes his painter teacher inspired him.


Then all the people asked their question to Jonny. After that we went outside to draw something, Jonny went and put a big canvas paper. Then Jonny asked what we want to draw then Miss Leaupepe said to Jonny to draw SPX.


Then Jonny draw a beach with sand, coconuts trees, wave, water, mountain and also  beautiful clouds and a beautiful sun. After he draw that he block writing SPX and he colour it with purple and yellow.


Also after that Jonny told us to wear something to keep your breath safe because the paint is too strong because it has got chemicals in it.


We all enjoyed painting with Jonny and we also liked the picture that he draw. He also was an amazing painter.
