Try Time

My Special place is in a stadium or rugby field. I like the field because I like playing Rugby and Rugby League. I also like playing held or sometimes we play two hand touch. Another thing I like at the field is getting runaways and scoring tries. I also like it when I hear the crowd cheering for us. I like it when our coach is reffing the game because he gives us the rules that we learn in training. I like going to watch pro games in the stadiums like the Blues or Warriors.

My artist I selected for my art is Van Gogh. I chose Van Gogh because I like how his art turns out to look amazing.  Van Gogh is famous for his style of ‘Expressionism’. This style of art is used to express the artist’s feelings. Like for example you would use bright colours if the artist feels good and dimmer colours if the artist feels down or sad.   

My photo was taken on a field but I drew a photo of the North Harbour Stadium because I have just recently been there on a trip to watch the Blues and Chiefs. From memory I drew the fire that comes after a try, and on my picture Manu is scoring a try.

Assembly

Today at assembly we started off with singing the great N.Z anthem. After that we listened to our principal, Mr Burt. He spoke to us about safety on the road He continued to say that two people nearly got ran over last week . He presented us a video to help explain what he meant. He said the video was very “cheesy” and when we watched, it was about a girl who was getting dropped off and she got dropped on the wrong side of the road. So she climbed across the car and hopped off on the footpath side and continued to cross the road but not at the crossings. After that Mr Burt reminded us to use the crossings. He then said he has opened up a competition to film a movie about safety on the roads and is due in the next few weeks. The winning class will be awarded with a camera.
