Wacky Wednesday

 Hi my name is Hudson and I'm a year seven student at Paihia School. In Paihia school we are having a Wacky Wednesday. If you don't know what Wacky Wednesday is it is when everybody dresses up in funny costumes and wigs. For Wacky Wednesday I dressed up as Rapunzel which is my sisters dress that is very tight. I also named myself Rahudzel. All of seniors that were wearing costumes or wigs had to get a photo taken and then we came back to class and some other people in costumes got a photo by themselves or with some other people that also had funny costumes. My favourite costume was Mama J or Jacob because he was dressed up like a mum Which was really funny and next time I do this I would probably wear a wig that has long hair


Have you ever had a Wacky Wednesday before?

Mean While In Lock-down

 Hi my name is Hudson and I go to Paihia school. We have been in lock-down for about 3 weeks now. In lock-down we have been going for a lot walks with my family that are in my bubble. I’ve been mostly outside skating up and down my street in lock-down. On Thursday at night my bubble was playing spot light and having home made pizzas. When we were playing spot light I was hiding in a cardboard box I was doing really well and had won the round but when I got found my uncle had kicked the box with me inside it and he kicked it over and over.

Have you ever played spotlight befor?

LockDown

 Hi my name is Hudson and I go to Paihia school. This week and last week we have been in lock-down due to Covid. I was in shock because NZ had done so well with covid. Lock-down had been announced on Tuesday and we would be going into lock-down at
12pm. I was a bit upset because we couldn’t go to school because I enjoy playing soccer in between breaks also I like doing work in a classroom not from home. Also I thought we would be in
lock-down only for a few days but covid got worse.

4 Shot Movies

Hi my name is Hudson and I go to Paihia School. This week in Te Ngahere we have been learning about the 4 shots because we have been making movies about our place . The 4 shots are establishing shots which is where the scene is been taking, the long shot witch is when the character is introduced, the medium shot shows a bit more detail of the character and lastly the close up witch is when you see what there doing. I think our group had done well when holding the ipad still when recording, we also could of done a better close up of the character. I think this is very help for me if I want to make my own movies and become a director in the future.

Have you ever learnt about the 4 shot movie?

NanoGirl


 Hi my name is Hudson and on Tuesday Nano girl came to our school. When
Nanogirl come to our school she  showed us some of the stuff she had been researching about science. My favourite part of Nanogirl’s show was when she had lit her hand on fire. I had learned that you can put a skewer through  a balloon without popping it by putting the skewer through the wrinkled part of the balloon and push into the darkest part of the balloon, I could use this in the future and show my friends.

Have you ever watched nano girls show before? 

Every scientists makes mistakes and some of the biggest mistake turn into the most amazing things

Drive To Auckland

 On the 12/5/21 my grandma and I went to Auckland to pick up some family from the UK. We had left at 6:17 well something like that. After a while of driving there was lots of road works ,we had just sit there for ages and then we had finally started to move. We had stopped at Caltex in Whangarei to get some fuel and some snacks along the road because we still had 2 hours ahead of us. 

When we were crossing the Harbour Bridge we had to call my Grandad because he was already in Auckland and we were going to stay there for an 1 hour or 2. Once we had found him we got some food at Brewers and it was quiz night and I thought it was pretty cool. After a while we had left my Grandad’s hotel to go pick up my Aunty and Uncle. They had to isolate at the Holiday Inn and once we had got to the hotel there was police everywhere. They were opening the gate for us. I thought we were the royals. Once we had stopped driving my uncle and aunty came out of nowhere than we had to drive home. Have you ever had to pick someone up that was isolating?  

 Last week on Thursday we had learnt about Kauri dieback which is a disease for Kauri trees. On Thursday Whaea Stella came into our classroom and talked about Kauri trees and Kauri dieback. The Kauri trees have been around for millions of years. Whaea Stella talked about how we should always use the washing stations to clean are feet so there's no dirt on your feet because that's how Kauri dieback spreads. If you don't know what Kauri dieback is it's a very bad illness for Kauri trees and many of them are dying because of it. We had done this so we can save Kauri trees from extinction because there isn't many left in New Zealand.
