Wearing a helmet while riding a bike
A helmet is a strong covering worn to protect the head.
Helmets come in all shapes, colours and sizes. They are made of strong fibre-glass on the outside. The inside is lined with foam.
While riding a bike, if you don’t wear a helmet you may suffer from serious concussions and may even come close to dying from massive injuries caused by falling and hurting the head.
If you don’t have a helmet, but you get tempted to ride your bike you have three choices: walk, run or don’t go anywhere at all so you don’t get hurt riding your bike without a helmet.
Wear a helmet and you will be safe riding your bike on busy roads.

Friendly comments are given.
Teachers ask if you have $2 to wear mufti.
Independent clothing and dressed tidily.
Dressed nicely and adequately.
Alot of different colours.

Holiday Recount - Hanging out with my sister and friends
In the holidays I was hanging out with my sister. Firstly we had to get ready and it took my sister a really long time just to get ready.
Then we walked to my sister’s friend’s house her name is Jaymie. Then we walked to Glen Innes and we caught the bus to Mission Bay.
After that we had to walk to my sister’s friend’s house her name is Eulale she has a ten bedroom house. When we arrived she was really kind to me. It was fun.
Then we walked back to Glen Innes it was really tiring then we went to the Internet cafe I got half an hour and then we got tired so we went home.
Overall it was a fantastic day I enjoyed hanging out with my sister’s friends.

Room 16 - Inquiry learning is a clever way to learn!
The first thing we did this term was swimming at Swimarama to improve our swimming skills. The walk down to the pools was long and hot. We did this so our fitness levels could improve as well. We struck two birds at one go!
This term we have been busy filming for our BlogSpot Tamaki Tales. Earle is our camera whiz! Some more of us are training to be cameramen and presenters. Thanks to Miss Walley and Mr. Munnik. All of us students involved with EHSAS work have had to work on our voice and expression.
In unit studies we have studied about conflicts and how to resolve them. We studied about conflicts in the world and how they are being resolved by the world leaders and common people. We made conflict art, using words about conflict. Each student in the extension unit is researching about a different world conflict. Social Inquiry learning is a clever way to learn!
We have been writing a lot of awesome narratives and painless poems for our writing. We have endeavored to make sure our writing has interesting adjectives, similes and better phrases. Overall it has been a fantastic experience as first years and we have had a lot of fun. We are looking forward to next term and different learning adventures.

Grease Recount
On Friday the 3rd of April 55 students from Tamaki Intermediate went to the Grease Production at Selwyn College. It was performed in the Auditorium.
At 11.15 the students that were going lined up in the hall. Then we were instructed by Miss Waetford our Deputy Principal to get in three lines and we all started to jump on the bus and get in our seats. Some people had to stand.
When we arrived at Selwyn College we waited for about 5 minute and then we were instructed to go inside. We got in our chairs and we were in the front row of seats. We had such an awesome view.
Before the show could begin the host told us that there were lighting difficulties but they didn’t care the would just kept performing.That showed us what great actors they were.
One of my favorite parts of the play was when everybody was dancing, flipping and doing the amazing splits.
The main two characters were Danny and Sandy, the actors were very good. Danny had and his friends wore black t-shirts and leather jackets. They were naughty boys. Sandy was friends with the Pink Ladies. The girl who played Rizzo had such an attitude. Eugene was a nerd and the actor who played him was really good, he was very funny. There was lots of beautiful singing. They had really nice voices and amazing dance moves. They must have practiced a lot.
The second part was a lot funnier. It was so loud I thought my ears were going to explode. The funniest part when they sang Beauty School Drop Out and there was a boy dressed as a girl it was really funny. I really enjoyed the production and hope to go to another production at Selwyn College.
