Lunch eating

Name: Peliasi 

Title: Lunch eating

On february the 9th, we got provided lunch and it was delicious and insane, the whole school enjoyed the lunch that was provided.

It was our first time having lunch like this. Most people were excited and most weren't, I didn't care what we were going to eat. I just couldn't wait any longer.  The line was insanely long and my patiences was very low for waiting. Finally it was my turn to get my food. I walked over to the table my class was sitting at and sat down and before we ate we said a prayer and after the prayer it was time to dig in. We had a cupcake, a Wrap Wrapped up sandwich and cut up veggies and fruits. I really enjoyed everything that was inside the lunch.

Getting lunch this whole year is going to be great.

 

All about me

Hey! Wassup, My name is Peliasi one of the coolest kids you'll ever meet, and yes it's all about me. I've got billions of goals but there is this one goal I would like to achieve, the academic award. In Order to succeed I would have to study harder, improve my learning, have a motivational heart and positive energy. My old results for math were around 4A's and lower when I used to be a year 7, Im now a year 8 and Im aiming for higher results like 5B, 5P and 5A and that's the road to academic award. 

 I enjoy playing sport, but basketball would be 10/10 for me because its not only my favourite sport but its my dream to become a professional Nba star, achieving that does not come with laziness, it comes with hard work and commitment and that's the key to my success.

I like to play video games it keeps me happy and hyped, My favourite food would be Macaroni because its soft and delicious and chewie. 

Thats most about me and bye bye.

How our ears work

 Our ears are important for billions of good reasons. The ears not only have the ability to hear, but it also makes it possible for us to balance. The ear isn’t just the hearing part. It’s not only for humans to hear but it also makes it possible for humans to walk and balance. You probably never knew that but I'm glad you do now.

How the ear works is that the sound goes through the pinna and the pinnas job is to capture the sound plus what the pinna is made of is cartilage the pinna is the outside of our ear, afterwards the sound funnels continuously through the ear canal where all the ear waxes are located and the ear waxes job is to keep out water, dirt, dust and little bugs and from the ear canal to the eardrum it vibrates then it sends the same sound to the three smallest bones in your body which are the Hammer, Anvil, Stirrup, afterwards the  ossicles make the sound louder and sends it to the cochlea, the cochlea have delicate cells that are shaped like hair so dont break them because they will not regenerate, afterwards the vibration causes the liquid to ripple and it converts the vibrations into electrical impulses and takes it to the brain by the auditory nerve. 

When we grow older our hearing doesn't work as well as it was when you were young so you better use it alot cause when you grow older you will not have the chance to hear much things as you did before. Our ears are very important because they help us hear and help us balance. If we never had ears I don't think anyone would be talking fluently, only hands moving and eyes looking so it is very important to take care of our ears or we’ll never hear anything for the rest of our lives. 

Take care of your ears cause when you grow older you’d regret everything.

Niue Language Week

Niue is not a country everyone knows but guess what? 

They’ve got the best beaches that everyone could chill at, Clean water, fresh island and a nice hot place to chill at. Niue is well known as one of the largest upraised coral atoll in the world situated in the middle of the South Pacific within a triangle boundary of Tonga, Samoan and Cook Islands.

One day I would like to visit that island to check out the great things.

 

Dr Thierry's visit

Dr Thierry's visit was amazing, we got to look at onion cells using the microscope. Looking at the cells were pretty fun but sketching it was super hard cause I'm not that good at drawing. Learning about cells was interesting and knowing about what's in our body is SUPER FUN.

Firstly he taught us different things about the zebrafish such as the organs, body and cells straight after that he taught us how to work with the microscope. We started to look at the onion cells. It was pretty hard to see them but when we zoomed in we saw pink dots everywhere it was interesting and fun. 

Dr Thierry’s visit was spectacular and interesting I hope to have him every thursday so that we could learn much more about cells.

 

School President

Name: Peliasi

Date: 14th October

Title: School President 

It would be a great honor to become a School student representative, I could make a huge difference to the school and I’d make everybody’s  year their greatest year they ever had in their whole entire life. My name is Peliasi and I am going to convince you to vote for me as a school representative. 

If you vote for me as school president I would make sure every kid in the school gets a good deal, like their school fees, stationary and school trips... Technically $5 for the fees, $5 for the stationary and trips, free!! 

Lunch?? No need, I’ll provide kids with healthy and delicious lunches that almost taste like fast food but even mouth watering. Most parents don't have the money for lunches so I’d help out by making a cafeteria for every kid and guess what? The lunch is FREE!

I’d give the school a one hour break time so that everyone can have fun and get a lot of energy from their hard work at class, it would be great to have a longer break time then the 30 minutes break time.

 It will be hard to get these things but I will negotiate with the principal and make a perfect deal so that everyone would have fun. It's not all about making the school rich, it's also about saving money and having fun at school. I’m all you’ll ever ask for, If you hate on me I'll fold you up like 1,2,3,4.
