My Speech On Littering

My Topic: Littering 

There I was sitting at my desk thinking of a speech topic until I saw some-one walking past with a piece of rubbish., then the word littering popped into my head. The students in R11 came up with a lot of speech topics. We all had fun listening to one another's speech. In my speech I said that over 100,000 sea mammals die every year because of someones laziness and the most littered item are cigarette butts. My time was about 2 minutes and 55 seconds. 
The finalists are... Sebastian, Meafou, Samuel and MinZin.

Close Sugar -The Additive Murderer

The sugar that we eat is a murderer. Studies show that in 2005 we ate roughly about 20 times more sugar than in the 1700’s, and, if that’s not bad enough the average American eats around 38.967 kgs of sugar a year. That’s just about my body weight, in sugar!

Fruit sugars or (fructose) are one of the best types of sugar because it gives you more energy than refined sugar and your body can’t get all the sugar out of the fruit so it’s not too bad. The sugar in milk, (unless added), is not great for you but milk is healthy with all of its, iron and vitamins.

Another New Year (Matariki)

Twinkling in the winter sky just before dawn, Matariki (the Pleiades) signals the Māori New Year. Traditionally, it was a time for remembering the dead, and celebrating new life. In the 21st century, observing Matariki has become popular again. Heaven-bound kites, hot-air balloons and fireworks help mark the occasion. Traditionally Matariki means the time to remember those who had died in the last year.

Matariki literally means the ‘eyes of god’.

Touch rugby for term 4!

What I'm really looking forward to this term is to play some touch rugby.

 the reason why I'm looking forward to this is because touch rugby is my second choice game for me to play with others. I'm looking forward to learning new skills in touch. Touch rugby is the main thing on my mind for this term. If I had the choice to pick rugby or touch it would be obviously be touch rugby.
