It was amazing

On a Thursday evening the year 6 and 7 children came to school for a fantastic disco, everyone was crazy. The songs that were popular in our Blue Light Disco was Gangnam style, Boom Boom and Teach me how to Dougie. The most coolest part was when Britney and Robin had a dance battle. Britney won because girls are the best. I really hope we have another disco very soon.

G.I.S. Don't Be Late

Chant

G.I.S. don’t be late
G.I.S. grab you mate
Roar so we can hear
Come on, forget about the gingerbeer.

Someone is crying
Someone is trying
We need to do our best
So we can win a treasure chest.

Come on we need to get in the game
Because there is no shame in our name.
Let me hear your voice
You  have no choice.

G.I.S. don’t be late
G.I.S. grab you mate
Roar so we can hear
Come on, forget about the gingerbeer.

Survey and Report


Walt: write a report about your survey.

Survey and Report



A few weeks ago I went to girls to find out what was their favourite dresswear?. My target was to go to the middle school and the  seniors.  I surveyed about 50 children and teachers at Glen Innes School.

The results revealed  most  liked Skinny Jeans. The least popular was Long Dresses. It must be unpopular because it is old fashion. On my survey it  other came second, short came third and skirts came fourth.

I fervently think that people liked Skinny Jeans because it is new fashion. I used excel to do my graph. My data was represented in a coloumn graph.

Weird and Wacky Food Festivals

Walt: write a summary.

Weird and Wacky Food Festivals
The three food festivals that I have chosen are Tunarama Festival, Cheese Rolling Festival and the Radish Festival.
 
The Tunarama Festival is when you have to throw a large piece of tuna.  The person who throws the tuna  the furthest wins a prize.  It is held in Port Lincoln, Australia on the 26th of January. The world’s record was 40 yards. It was set in 1998 by a worldchampion, Sean Carlin. Sean Carlin was the Olympic Hammer Thrower.  People have this festival so they can celebrate the sea.

The Cheese Rolling Festival is a tradition.  It has been around for at least 200 years.  The festival is held in England.  The Cheese Rolling Festival event is held on the Spring bank at Coopers, England.   A huge chunk of Gloucester cheese is rolled down to the bottom of a very high hill.  Then participants have to chase after it.  The first person at the finish line will win the Gloucester cheese.

The Radish Festival is held in Mexico each year on the 23rd of December at night.  Spanish brought radishes to Mexico in 16th century.  That is how Mexico got the idea.  The Radish Festival is about people carving sculptures out radishes.  Sculptures are linked to  Christian stuff.  This is a festival because Mexico is encouraging people to eat their vegetables and fruits.  The festival is celebrated for hundreds of years.  The festival doesn't last long because the radishes won't last long.

I would really like to have the Tunarama Festival in Glen Innes.   But instead we can throw large pumpkins.  I really want to have the Tunarama Festival in Glen Innes so I could beat Sean Carlin’s world record.  Possibly I know Jelsma would win the prize.

Thank you

Dear Chris Wood

Thank you very much for donating food for our lunch. I really appreciate the groceries you've given to Glen Innes School. Our school is really thankful for what you have done. We wouldn't of had sandwich making without you and Mr. Naidoo.

I really enjoyed the the part when all my friends encouraged me to eat my lettuce. I really hate lettuce and I have never ever put lettuce in my sandwiches before. From now on I put will healthy ingredients in my sandwich. I can't wait until next Thursday. You really inspired me to eat healthy sandwiches.

Thank you very much.

Yours sincerely
Mikayla
