MY INSPIRATION

My biggest inspiration has got to be my parents, they have given me so much love and support it’s so unreal. They have pushed me to follow my dream and to not to listen to anyone that gives me hate…. They have made a big impact in my life because they are always they are always there for me no matter what and I really appreciate everything they have done for me….. So this is why I have picked my parents as my biggest inspiration.

SLJ - Teaser Week - Activity 3: The Greatest of All Time

SLJ - Teaser Week - Activity 2: Equal Pay for Equal Work?

WHAT I THINK ?




 I think that women's sports players should earn the same amount as men’s 
sports player. Why I think this?..... While we are all human and it is so unfair that 
men get paid more than women players….. Women players work and play as 
hard as Men players so I don’t know why we are paying less to our Ladies and 
more to our Men. This is very disgraceful to our Women players and who ever 
said that men should be paid more than Women they are very stupid and is a 
disgrace to the whole world…. I'm a boy but I would still back up the fact that
Women should get paid the same amount as Men do.

Captain Blackheart treasure map - Richie - Tui


Captain Blackheart buries his treasure but loses his treasure map!
But all is not lost. His trusty crew remember different bits of the map.
"I remember drawing it with 5 squares each way,'' says the Captain. 
"There was a row of three trees running due East from the square
(1,1)", Peg Leg Pete says. "You put each one of them on a different
square."
"Weren’t there four granite boulders going due South from (5,5)?"
John asks. "I think you put one of them each in a square too."
"Ah!. Now I remember!" yells the Captain. "I buried the treasure
halfway between the first rock and the most western tree!"

Where is the treasure? IN THE MIDDLE

Today in maths we did a word problem on treasure. MONEY, MONEY, MONEY, MONEY......MONEY😃😃😃😃😃

Day 1 of camp - 9 of September

DAY 1
On the 9th of September 2019, Glenbrae school set off on a journey to that top of New Zealand to learn about the Treaty of Waitangi and a little bit about the history of the North Island. But before we got to Waitangi we had to make a pit stop at Whangarei, to use the restroom and to eat some lunch. After 10 minutes we set off once more to meet our guides for the week their names were Magnus and Chris. After we introducing our self we headed to the Treaty ground, but before we entered we were invited by some very kind Maori people who did a haka and pohiri for us. I really enjoyed the tour of the treaty grounds and the lovely performance done by the Maori people. Later that day we arrived at our camp site were we were going to spend the rest of the week at.  At the end of the day for dinner we had fish and chips.

Life in danger of extinction

Life in danger of extinction


Three and a half billion years ago life
emerged in the ocean. Then 425 million
years ago life made its way to land.
Life was made up of four elements
water, light, energy and air. 


Humans, animals and the environment
have changed a lot throughout the
past millions of years. Because of the
diverse landscape and climate, different
types of species evolved and are
thriving in different environments and
habitats. Many species have evolved
into allies, adversaries and enemies.


All species and life forms play a
very important role in maintaining a
healthy ecosystem. Even the bee is as
important as the tiger in the survival
of all living things, including man. If bees
or other pollinators disappear, sooner
or later life will disappear too.  


Man is creating a new world, he is
transforming the world as he plans it.
We have destroyed our forests, polluted
our water, poisoned the air and changed
our environment. We have impacted
climate and are pushing thousands of
species to extinction.
