On Wednesday Jacinda Arden put the whole of New Zealand into Lock down, it was a snap lock down which means we were told 6 hours before it happend, Jacinda announced this Lock down at 6 PM and level 4 started at midnight.
During Lock Down i have done multiple bike rides round our area, i have also played volleyball with my family, My mum also put up a badminton net so my family can play badminton, we have taken our dog Moe for a lot of walks, my Mum and Ella take Moe and i either roller blade or go on my scooter beside them.
Jacinda will announce at 3 o'clock today ( Friday 20th ) if the Lock Downs are being extended.
What have you all been doing during this Lock Down?
Take care and stay safe
Hey readers,
So this week our senior school which is year 7 and 8 gone to Orana Park for the day, We went their in a car for transport. When we where on are to Orana Park there was a massive jump and i didn't even notice because i was talking to Rico, and then suddenly it felt like low gravity and we just jumped in midair in the car, after the jump everyone just started laughing. When we finally got there after a long car ride we saw are school on the other side of the car park so we went over to them and they got us into 2 lines room 5 and room 6, we had to listen to all the instructions, so Sarah ( our instructor for the day ) led us to zoo school which is were they they tell us what animal we are going to see next and all about the animals, so Sarah led us to the frogs which was axolotls and other types of frogs on the left side there are native animals from New Zealand and on the right there is non native animals, after we saw the frogs we went to the tigers which was laying down on the ground but when it saw us it got up and was guarding its territory then the other tiger was just chilling in the shade behind a tree, next we saw the lions they were just sitting down not moving, we kept going round the zoo and then we gone to the cheetahs which was really cool because we saw one up close and then we saw it walk away to the other cheetahs, but then it was lunch time so we had some lunch and then we went to see the gorillas but on the way to the gorillas we saw other animals like Wild African dogs that were just running around, we also saw some addax that were just lying down because it was a hot day for them, but them we saw the gibbons which was perfect timing because they were just getting fed as we got there and we saw them run and it was weird because there arms are massive but there legs are tiny, they need long arms in the wild to help them swing from tree to tree, after we saw the gibbons we finally saw the gorilla he was bigger than i though he would be, he was eating protein that the keepers put all over the ground which helps them get big and strong, after we left the gorillas we gone to the giraffes and we got to feed them and when i was a baby a giraffe lifted me up so i was pretty scared to feed it but i did it and his grip on his tongue was so strong and his tongue was purple and blue, after we fed the giraffes we gone to the Rhinos which were just lying down in the sun. After we visited all the animals we had to go back to school, we went in the same car and i was talking to Rico about all the animals and then hes just like "yo the jump is right there" so then we went over the bump and we went flying in the air and it was so fun then we all started laughing.
Would you want to go to Orana Park?

Hey Readers,
This week we were learning about symmetry and how some animals are symmetry and some are not, to tell if an animal is symmetry is pretty easy it's just simple they have identical faces on both sides of their face unless the got attached of something like that, you can tell if an animal is symmetry and you can test it aswale if your not sure. So earlier this week we had to draw an animal that we liked that was symmetry and then we had to draw it from scratch, most of the people from my class was drawing a scorpion or a grasshopper but i picked a ladybird Ms Lambie told us to try make it as colorful as you can and make it big so it fits on the page. Here is my drawing
What insect would you want to draw? and why?

last week we did a basketball tournament with people from my school, Mr Matai organized our school to go to the basketball tournament i gone in Mr Matai's car with Lennox and Celine, when we got there it looked so cool, we gone in the building and gone straight into the courts, the looked so cool first we started to train and then the bell rang and then we went over to the people who organized the whole tournament, they told us all the rules, then we were up in our first game we were all confident in the win but then as we played until the end of the game we ended up getting smoked. So we kept training our three pointers and free throw and others to beat the team we were going up against and then the game began and the we kept on scoring and we won! our first game we were so happy then but we kept preparing for our third game we gone through are third game and it was so close all the was but we had a tie!!! we though we had won but we tied but we got over it and then we kept training doing three pointers lay ups for our fourth game we were versing an all girl team but they weren't the best team so we won then we realized we were versing another all girls team and we looked at them train and some of our players were really nervous and that's what was the problem, so the bell rang and we played the game the were so much taller than us so they could just through the ball above our heads we kept losing so badly and we lost, but the one we lost to the all girls team we in the finals versing there same school all of the other schools were watching the finals including my school the game started and everyone wasn't talking they were just watching it was close the whole game but the boys came out on top.
