TREASURE ISLAND.
This story starts in the Admiral Benbow inn. Jim Hawkins (Quin) works there. Billy Bones (Shanti) comes to stay. He has a map. He was once a pirate, a member of Captain Fint's crew. He is visited by Black Dog (Stevie)who fights him. Then the evil Blind Pew (Sasha) comes and scares him to death.
Jim gets the map. He gets the Goodies, Dr Livesey (Charlie) Squire Trelawney (Sarah), Mr Dance (Shannen) and they hire a ship called the Hispaniola. The captain is Captain Smollett (Makayla) who gets Long John Silver (Madison) to collect a crew. Long John Silver is evil and one of Captain Flint's pirates. He collects all the other pirates and away they sail.
On the trip Jim hears of a plot to kill the goodies. When they get to the island the goodies go to the stockade. The baddies go in search of the treasure. An old pirate called Ben Gunn (Zion) who has been marooned, arrives and joins the goodies.
Jim takes off and sails the ship around the island. The pirates have nowhere to go. There's a big fight. The pirates are winning
until they hear Ben Gun who they think is a ghost of Captain Flint. Ben Gun screams horribly.
They all run away and the goodies find the treasure and go's back to England.

The awesome Parklands school street race!
On Friday the 27 of July 2012 Parklands school had a street race
The medals silver, gold and bronze |
The Olympic games
Let the games begin. Some people think that the Olympics are a waste of time. Well it is sort of maybe it is because 4 years just for a little 2 week full of sports and stuff and that is a big waste of time. Every Olympic stadium is brand new. Wasteful as! But I do think that 4 years apart New Zealand got 6 gold 2 silver and 5 bronze medals But for the people that have dreams of going to the Olympics that have only one arm or leg can go to the Paralympics its like the Olympics for the people that only have 1 or 0 arms or legs or have fake arms or legs. They can live a dream so they can be happy. Even if they don't get a medal they are still happy because the went to the Paralympics.
Here is a paralympics video on the Paralympic games opening ceremony.
ROCK DA HOUSE
Rock da house is a choir made up of a group of schools. The group's are singing on the 28th 29th and the 30th of August in the 3 group's are these schools. On Tuesday: Upper Moutere, Ngatimoti, Dovedale and Mahana. On Wednesday: Tasman, St Peter Chanel, Lower Moutere and Mapua. On Thursday: Parklands, Motueka South and Riwaka. My favorite song is Bad Hair Day . Rock Da House was at the memorial hall in Motueka next to the Tasman bays library. I wasn't there but I heard that the audience went crazy because we were ... well... well we were so awesome. I think our soloists did so well but they were not just good they were awesome! The show went so well.

WINTER SPORTS TOURNAMENT
We have the winter sports tournament because it's a good opportunity for the people that can't do the winter sports in the weekends. The sports include: hockey,netball,rugby and soccer. I played netball because I like to play it and I play in the weekends. I enjoyed winning first place overall with 27 points.
ROOM FOUR'S CARS
This is Emma's car |
In term three and four my class made self propelled cars. I made a blue traction car at the last minute. This is what I used to make my car :
One traction motor
Four wheels
Blue paint
White paint
One knife
One model Ferrari.
This is how I made my car ( with my dad's help)
I took the model Ferrari apart and my dad cut off a bit of plastic then I put it back together then I painted it blue and white.
