Easter introductions


I have written two introductions. The first one goes straight into the action and the second one goes straight into my feelings and thoughts

Splash, splash, splash “Oh the water is cold” I said to my brother. I was bored by myself so I went down to the deep end of the pool. We were at the Swimarama pools on a freezing day.

Thank goodness my auntie came and picked me up to take me swimming. If she didn’t, a wet cold day in the Easter break would of been more boring. I would of had to put up with my annoying brother and little twins.

Please vote witch one you think is the best.

Artspace Room 17


Hi my name is Kingston L and I am a year 6 at Pt.England school, and I also come from Niue. I have drawn a poster that is about Pt.England and I have drawn the logo and coloured it in.

The colours I have chosen are brown, blue and black because I think it suits it. I have also drawn the word Respect and it is red. My poster has a black boarder and a white background.

I chose my design because I need to respect people the way I want them to respect me. I have also drawn this design to represent the Pt.England way and to represent my school.

Why Do Babies Need More Sleep Than Adults ?

Babies need more sleep than adults because they are smaller than them. The smaller the baby the more sleep it needs.

Young babies do not do much except sleep and eat. Babies grow while they are sleeping so they grow faster than older children. The Older children don’t sleep as much but need more sleep than an adult.

After a long day adults need rest to replace the parts of their body. While they sleep their bodies are getting repair to be ready for the next.

Adults need food for energy, and children need food for bones and muscles. The grown ups just need energy from food because of all the exercise they do. Babies just need bones and muscles to grow properly.

Who Were The Spartans ?


Spartans were warriors that lived in the Ancient Greece, in a town called Sparta. They were know for honesty courage and their love of freedom.

In the Ancient Greece the boys of 7 years old ,got taken from their families, and trained for war. They had no luxuries but became Policemen or Soldiers.

The soldiers of Greece were fighting all the time. They captured men and women and turned them into slaves to do all the field work, they were called Helots.

In the town of Sparta the women were tough. Some families were so tough that if their son was defeated in a fight, they would be killed. But if the son won, they would celebrate and have a feast.

Japan's Diasaster Day


In Japan there was a devastating earthquake that had crushed lots of houses. This caused a Tsunami that swiped all the cars and broke roads. It was a huge disaster for the people in Japan and it was unexpected. Tokyo was engulfed by a tsunami which covered most of the area.

The earthquake hardly caused any suffering compared to the tsunami. Japan has had so many earthquakes that they have an earthquake sensor on their mobile phones that will tell them when an earthquake is about to occur.

A wall of water swiped all the people that lived on the side of the coast. It had completely destroyed the city. It was so bad that it created twice the damage than the Christchurch earthquake. The magnitude was 8.9 on the Richter scale.

A Nuclear plant exploded because the earthquake caused it. When it exploded it looked like a mushroom of smoke. I feel sorry for the families that have lost a family member. I also feel sad because so many people died, and many homes were destroyed.
