Angles

Today, me and my classmates studied angles. Me being (big brain) already knew about this from spiecial (limited edition) maths lesson. There are 6 kinds of angles: Acute, Right angle, Obtuse, Straight, reflex, and the Revolution. 

Acute is the name for an angle smaller than 90. degrees or a right angle 90 degrees is a quarter.

obtuse is in between 90. (right angle) - 180. (straight line). Reflex angles are above 180. degrees and 360 (a full rotation)

Afterwards the class went out side and we measured different angles to test there type of degree.

Aunty cynthia's party

In the holidays my aunty was having her birthday.
To start the day, me and zack talked and played a few videogames together. Mum quickly snagged us for 1.5 hours to do a strip fencing. Afterwards Dad fed us a few eggs and we prepared to head down to whangarei.
We packed.
Clothing.
Electronic chargers
toothpaste & toothbrushes
Mum & Dad's Phones
Nana
nintendo switch
As Dad drove our car Me Mum and Zack went head to head in BINGO. The objective of road trip bingo was to get five in a row of what was on our list. Zack claimed he won the first game right before taipa . Eventually we reached kawakawa and had lunch. Mushroom pie and cream donut "Mmmm gimmee gimmee" Once we reached the house i saw relatives scrambling around to get ready for the suprise party. delicious meals and tasty party food. Seriously for the dip bowl the inside of a large loaf  had been ripped out and homemade cheese and bacon dip poared in to the loaf. So much party food it would take me a legitimate month to eat it all. Afterwards we all had cake, played games and had a lovely time. We arrived home to the hotel we were staying at in whangarei at 11.30.

Planting Day

 Today my class and i left to go to lake Gem to do some planting.                                                                We planted:                                                                                                                                              Kānuka,                                                                                                                                                Manuka,                                                                                                                                                    cabbage,                                                                                                                                                           & karaka.

We started by driving with chosen parents to go to the lake, than some people lended us shovels. I started by digging a hole. The hole was one foot deep (30 cm), gently squeezing the plastic bottles so the plant and dirt loosened then i placed the plant gently inside of the hole and compacted dirt around it. The most common plant i think was kānuka which was much nicer than the manuka with all the spines after the one and a half hours of planting the teacher kindly shared some iceblocks. I got orange. I went to get a drink before my taking photos infront of the large tree stump.

Some kids were kind enough to share thier lunch with me and man was thier a banquet.

Crackers check

Juice check

Dip check

spreads check.

After the lunch we all headed back to school. The teacher quickly bought some lollies at the shop.

Drift

 I walked towards my car, detirmined to beat the record. Distance 10.47, 47 corners at the crown range.

My nervous hand opened the door and i hoped inside. I twisted the key to start and griped the gearstick.

The angry engine growled at the road as pushed the pedal down. My hands went into autopilo as i focused on speed at the first corner my car drifted spraying dust everywhere. Time slowed as i swiped through a 

u-turn. The beautiful queenstown country side ran past. I wasn't moving the world was. a nearby helicopter flew past coloured white and red. I made a mad dash past some cows blurred into the land scape. Then i crossed the finished.

My school hloidays

Early august school finished for 2.3 weeks of HOLIDAYS when i got home i had a nice warm shower

then i jumped on my computer for 1.5 hours the holidays is basicly a 8x longer holiday with a little more celebration. My holidays wasn't all rainbows and unicorns, i was dedicated to finish my speach so that i was 

ready for school.

The second weekend my old friend Noah came around, I've 

known him for quite a long time. we would talk, game and walk 

around around the farm. We helped Mum move wood stakes a nearby orchid offered us. 

The final week of the holidays Kurts birthday rolled in. we first, to celebrate headed to some DAMN good heated pools where Me, Zack, Kurt and a few others played for a while, then we traveled to Mc donalds we had a bucket load of quater pounders, a joke amount of fries and lots of soft drinks. Later that day when i went home Mum annoced that Atrayl was coming and there was chicken nuggies and chips. How could a day be dis good and it isn't a event, this day was ↓

Chippys for days

Yesterday, Mrs Cutler promised one thing and one thing only, A BUCKET LOAD OF CHIPS. Right 

before lunch $100 worth of chips (although the place was a RIPOFF) marvellous chips 

Fear Thou PYJAMAS

Today is PYJAMA day, yay (unethusiastic). No pyjamas was optional (in my cass a must). I don't think i would live much longer if my Dad saw me wearing pyjamas to POMPALLIER CATHOLIC SCHOOL.

To be fair for a school that is strict on uniform, they slip excuses to go STYLISH. When i rocked in my 

uniform, i saw liam with a grizzly bear onezie, and he looked AWEZOME (so cool i spell incorrectly).

 

When i entered class a bit later i saw my other friend, Dallas he looked EVEN COOLER busting out his shark onezie (notice the babyshark machinegun in the image above) then later that day Miss Cook started an assembly. Then i saw the entire school at once in all of it's pyjama glory.

HOLIDAYS ARE BACK

The Holidays are ONE WEEK AWAY

Sustainable change

Mrs Cutler a few weeks ago decided to use the remaining weeks in 

the term to teach sustainability. It first started with a slide 

discussing all the problems of palm oil, deforestation, animals of the rainforest and endangering them. Later that week she launched 

phase 2, to spruce up a classroom wall. Part 3 involved futher disscusion, brooding deep and powerful thoughts. This week she unleashed a operation known as, plastic pollution talk.

so far we have seen (alot) of powerful videos and the test is to create a slide on ocean pollution. From my current sources 

(my brain) we have already began this slide. I will continue to

blog until the operation until we move to something like algebra.

My Birthday over 9000!

Yesterday i woke up and had One thought IT is my BIRTHDAY. I left the bed and got dreessed into my 

P.C.S uniform (Pompallier catholic school) my Mum located me and annonced HAPPY BIRTHDAY.

A smile sneaked it's way onto my face. Mum was busy making eggs on toast and milo.

I left the kitchen to find Zack and what do ya know he is playing Terraria (game). I told him to get off 

it is school morning and he had done NOTHING. An alarm clock rang annoncing the bear (Dad) had 

woken up...

 Later that morning Breakfast was served i greedily munched on my toast. I got excited for my gifts. I new what i saw wasn't all the gifts. The first gift was a board game named NEFERTITI. The next gift was a Pair of pyjamas so soft on the outside that i was mildly excited to try them on. The next gift 

was a stylish hoodie black with a spectacle of white dots. The next gift was battle ships from the famous 

aunty Julie (famous to us) and lastly a Book i already new was going to a present.

(read so close for a back story).

1/2 an hour later i arrived at school. The day went pretty smoth al the way until my friend did the 

UNTHINKABLE and he told the teacher it was my birthday. The WORLD's most akward happy birthday song. it sounded like a dying cricket sympony mixed with thoughts of Y R WE DOING THIS.

Hiroshi then started saying repetivily  Did u get a unicorn for your birthday while doing a contorted weird face. After 5 x of doing this i replied with did you plastic surgery for your birthday (He stayed blissfully quiet for the day).

Mum later picked me up from school. While we walked to the car she asked the PENNULTIMATE QUESTION do you PIZZA. YES I SCREACHED. We head to pizza hut and bought FOUR PIZZAS.

PE started tomorrow so for a PE shirt i had to go to the warehouse. We found a shirt and then while we 

were looking at the gaming section of the warehouse. Mum carefully snuck out a PS PLUS GIFT CARD

in full view of us (Mum be less obvious) bought it and left the store using the new shirt as a way to 

concelle the card.

She then rushed us to the super market were we bought food ad dinner party supplies. I had to conferre with my fruit juice accosiated what juice to pick we (he does) pick guava and pineapple juice. We picked up the finale groceries and headed home

When i first got home me and Zack put all the groceries in a pantry then i started to play games on my computer until my Mum told me to get nice and CLEAN in the shower. Onced in cleaned myself with Lynx soap, i carefully put on my new pyjamas. IT SHOULD BE ILLEGAL TO HAVE PYJAMAS SO SOFT. I walked into the kitchen and saw my birthday cake in all it's delicious GLORY. 1/2 an hour later 

was dinner time. After i snarfed up my lazangna. Mum gave me a card Which inside contain contained 

the PS PLUS GIFT CARD. Then we ate the cake. I had an idea of playing NEFERTITI. The game was so complex it reminded me of the first time we played risk. Dad read the rules and told us how to play. we

played unti 9 o'clock then went to sleep.

SO CLOSE

5 more days until my birthday on the 22nd of june. I can almost taste the cake (i have wierd powers such 

as tasting cake 5 days before eating it). I know some of my presents already (thanks to scholastics sending their deliveries strate to schools allowing for certain people (being me) to sneak a look). I also know what my foreign grandparents are getting me CLOTHES EVERY SINGLE YEAR👕. I'm hoping for something

like a new game.

WALLS FOR ALL

During the weekend Mum and Dad started placing in the frame for the walls for our bathroom renovation.

They were up during the night (hard to sleep during the family reunion of lumber and tools). When i woke up on sunday, i checked the walls. All they need to do now is stick some plaster on the side and they have finished their first wall. Although they have done alot they arn't a third of the way to completing.

The Rainforest Discussion

For the past week, Kakapo has been doing work about the rainforests. One of the tasks was creating some 

form of way (in my experience making a slide) about the Rainforest. Me, Liam and Dallas worked 

together on a slide on alot of topics.

 

Later that week, Mrs Cutler thought of a fun 3D art project to make a classroom wall the rainforest. We first made an leafy backdrop. Mine consisted of Banana leaves and soft greens. The next day the focus of

our art would begin, THE BIRD. Me and my 2 friends thought we could do different Varriations of the

Macaw. I did the Scarlet Macaw, Liam did a blue and gold macaw and Dallas did a rare and endangered spieces.

Da Party Granny.

During saturaday it was Nana's birthday. We spent the morning playing until Mum told us to grab our snazziest clothes and the km long road to Nan's house. when i first entered the old home i saw aunty Julie

rushing to cook different things. Mum lept into action and began helping. Ziggy left the house to sit outside (don't know why he's sometimes strange).  

Returning to normal... ...until corona strikes back

Level one has now started meaning that we are back to normal. I personally think that we are ready, i 
wish we closed the borders berfore covid could hit NZ. before lockdown we spent hundreds of dollars on canned food knowing it would provide us throughout the lockdown. We arn't half through the stash. The funny thing is it is stored in my room so i sleep daily next to 1000 kidney beans. The benifits of that room is that it is a double bed. We have currently NO known cases of CoronaVirus for 2 weeks meaning we are 2 steps ahead of the world.

The Boring Wait.

Yesterday Mum left home to go to whangarei, there she picked
up a toilet and more material. after school day came to pick us
up. He left us in the lunch room at work. One of Dad's collegues
had abirthday that day and her birthday cake was
AMAZING!!! she said it was speicial made from beachcomber.

Zack made depressing jokes. When ever i asked what time it is
he said it was o'clock o'clock.We continued to talk about the
day, films, jokes, video games. occasionally a employee came
into the lunch room and had a three second talk

The time eventually came (Three hours) when he announced it
was time to go home. on the way home he talked about how he
had prepared a movie and about his models.
once we got home he rang up mum in whangarei and asked her
how was it, she was still at bunnings wherehouse.

Bathroom floor.

Yesterday Dad and I went down to Nana's house to pick up a large pile of flooring material. we
grabbed the large tiles and loaded them onto the back. they had been resting in the cottage behind
Nana's house where Mum used to sleep. we took ten large tiles slowly up the driveway so they wouldn't slip of and break (they where heavy but fragile). Then Dad started layering the floor with tiles completly covering the main bathroom. The floor now looks very grey. Over the past 2 years we have had a large supply of contruction material littered around the house.

It's Hammer Time!

A few weeks ago Mum, Dad, Ziggy and I decided to do some bathroom renovations.

Mum sent us to make a fence for the calves and when we came back, Mum and Dad where in the
middle of destroying a bathroom wall. dust littered the floor, large pieces of building material dotted
the ground. Mum handed me a sledge-hammer and Zack a crowbar and told us to start breaking the
wall. By the time we had finished all that was left was a wooden frame and a large mound of white
plaster. white sticky dust glue to my clothes, a large pile of bathroom tiles have lied on the floor of
Mums office for the past few years. this year we are finally putting them to a benificial use. Two weeks later we are still marking and planning how to make the best of the revovation.

Monopoly By Candlelight (strange edition).

Yesterday there was a large powercut upnorth where i live. Me Mum and Ziggy had been destroying a wall the day for bathroom renovation. After watching TV we went to bed. The Weather had been
PHYCO!!!. wind to make stuff fly. Poor Dog. Then the power went out. Mum's ULTIMATE monopoly excuse. It started getting dark during the game so we brought out the candles.
Imagine the weirdest experience you've ever felt and times that by 500000000000000000000000000.
Mum was playing monopoly like a world class pro and zack was bragging that he had the best zone on the map (only made him 50 bucks).

Exiting lockdown.

Dad finally got out of lockdown. so he's began going back to work but only half shifts. Mum has recently sold nine large padocks, she has been doing a lot of paper work for her beef farm. We are still doing online learning with Mrs Cutler, Mums worried to send us to school until New Zealand is covid free. we have been talking to friends like Clemont and my overseas grandmother (avo).  Our Avocado orchid is looking great. 

Jamie out.😎

life in lockdown

New Zealand just got out of level 4 lockdown.

Dad can finally go to work. Before that Dad spent alot of his time painting models.

Mum has sold nine Padocks (woohoo) of her dairy turned beef farm. The plan is to get Nana into an 

Auckland resthome👵. 

Baked Goods🍪

Yesterday i was looking at the contract (set work for the week), a lot of the work was from
ANZAC (Australia New Zealand Army Corps) related activities. An optional job was to bake
ANZAC cookies. Personally i'm all about the cookies, so i decided to bake ANZAC biscuits.
I asked Dad if he would like to join us in making cookies. Turn out (Dramatic pause...) he had never 
baked cookies😲. Fortunately my little bro Zackary came to help (master of cookies). We finished 
the baked good 45 minutes later. We sat down to a tasty treat.

Ingredients for ANZAC cookies.
1 Cup 'flour'
2/3 Cup 'sugar'
1 1/3 Cup 'coconut'
1 1/2 Cup 'rolled oats'
200 g 'butter'
2 tablespoon 'syrup or honey'
1 teaspoon 'baking soda'
4 tablespoon 'boiling water'

Mix together flour, sugar, coconut and rolled oats. Melt butter and golden syrup/honey. Dissolve 
baking soda in boiling water and add to butter and golden syrup/honey. Stir butter mixture into dry
ingredients. Place a tablespoonful of mixture into trays bake at 180'c for 15 minutes.
