Make a flute

Today we had another experiment and this time is was called Make a flute.


The things that we used was:
  • 5 plastic bottles
  • Water
  • And a tester

What we did was we had water in them but filled up on different levels. After we did that we blow it and it made an awesome sound.


I felt very happy after the experiment and i also learnt a lot of new things from this.

The scientific explanation is that when you blow on the bottle it makes different noises because of the amount of water that is in the bottle.

Term 2 holiday reflection!!

The past 2 weeks was probably the best holiday of this year even tho it hasn't happened yet because we went a lot of places like up north, to Davenport, on the Ferry, to Botany, the Library, a Train ride, to my mums work and my dad's work, so it's been a really cool, fun and exciting 2 weeks for us kids. My Parents didn't really like it at all because of work.

For me it had some ups and downs but it was really awesome when we went on the ferry together it was a relaxing trip and the fun thing was it that you could just fell all the water splashing on you like rain. So that was my favourite trip throughout the holiday.

The trip to davenport was my second favourite because I haven't been on a ferry and to a different part of New Zealand before. So it was fun and short at the same time because my brother had training at 3:30 but we left to Davenport at 2:30 so yeah we only had a short time there, but the funny thing was, was that is that we went back home then he came back from his training early saying that the coach didn't turn up. Haha we were perfectly looking forward to go to Waiheke Island but it would take to long BTW.   ;)

After the holiday I felt very relieved and happy that it was over, also I really enjoyed the trips that we went to and I can't want to come back to school for term 3 because I am ready for what's coming my way?.  :)

Term 2 reflection

Term 2 was filled with a lot of setbacks and emotional days. It was a Fun, Sad, Mad, Weird, Funny etc Term. I've improved a lot from Term 1, Educational and behavior wise. Still a lot to improve on tho. First of all I'd like to say thank you to Mrs Tofa and Miss Stone for a wonderful Term 2. Without you guys we wouldn't be as close as we are right now. Also this term was so hard and kinda stressful because tests were hard and challenging but I think I managed to get past it.

I felt very happy at the end of this term and it was also very fun at the same time. I really hope that all of us come back to school strong and healthy because we have a big term coming up. Peace!!  :)

A summary about today(Friday)

On this particular Friday was probably the saddest day for my parents and some of our family in the south-side because there were too sadly deaths from both sides of my family. But the saddest thing was is that we little ones didn't get to see him and her before they past away. Also i'm not going to the funeral which makes pretty boring for my brothers and I. So pretty much we had to stay home and clean the house then read and complete our homework for the day, then the best part was that we had a little bit of free time when they called.

When they got back we played a video on the T.V which was Met the mormons. Meet the mormons is a story of mormons around the round that have some kind of message to give to us and to other religions. I was also inspired because this one fellow mormon was going on his mission(Which they are called missionaries or as we like to call them “elders”, whea so I was inspired because he wanted to do it real bad and when he went on the mission he thought people with everything he knew about the gospel of the church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints, so they just made me really want to do the things that he once did.

When it was getting dark I was aloud to play again until it was time for bed. I felt really happy and sad today but it also fun at the time.
