End Of Year!

 Kia Ora!

The year is slowly coming to an end! I have been at this school since I was 5 years old! This will be my very last year at Yaldhurst Model School. This end of year assembly is very important! It's going to be the closing of my Yaldhurst journey. The year 8s have been working on so much stuff to bring to this assembly.

One of the many things that we have all been working on is a photo collage. So what we have done is found so many old pictures of each other and then some of us now!

We have put them together in one google drawing to share with everyone I hope you enjoy!!

 

 Thank you all so much for coming onto my blog! whether this is going to be my last post im not sure but if it is then thank you all again for coming with me on this blogging journey and now I will always have this blog to look back on some of the things that have happened in Yaldhurst Model School. How has your year been?

Why Does Your Nose Hurt When You Jump Into Water?

Kia Ora 

Have you ever gotten a sharp pain in your nose when you jump into the water? Maybe you have tried to do some type of special swimming pool trick and ended up with water flooding up your nose.  Sometimes I get thrown off going into the pool again because of it. It hurts super bad.Have you ever wondered why that has happened? Well I am here to explain it to you today and how to prevent it from happening in the future.

YOUR NOSE IS SENSITIVE!

Something small such as water hat may not hurt any other part of your body at all can really damage your nose. Water also doesn't help this is because  it can be very cold and the indies of your nose is super warm, the instant cool down causes alot of pain!

Did You Know?

Did you know that there is actually a lot of water in our noses and the rest of our bodys? This water is a lot different than things you drink though. The water in our body is actually mixed with a lot of salt! Yes Salt! This is why when this type of water enters your nose it can still sting. Did you also know that your nose creates mucus to get rid of the bad things in your nose! YUCK!!

How Can You Prevent This?

Well Breath out as you jump into the water to make sure no water comes into your nose.Or you could hold your nose as you jump into the pool. But don't stress too much the pain won't stay for too long and its not a very serious thing.

Thank you all for coming onto my blog! Do you have any wonderings? I do mine is Why do we cry when we're sad. Do you have any idea why that is? Have you had an experience like this? Let Me Know.

News Report On Athletics

 Kai Ora! 

Welcome To My Blog!

Today I have been learning all about newsreptors and the how to read the news that is online. On a regular news site you can find things like the... Headline,Section Title,Date,Comments,Byline and so on. If the news site your reading doesn't have these things then its more than likely a fake news site and you should get off there immediately. Our Uru Manuka Cluster have been earning all about these things with Miss Morgan.  Link to Uru Manuka Site. I will be writing a news report on Athletics! Me and my school had this happened last Friday. 

What is the Headline? The Headline is like a title at the beginning of something. What is the Byline? The byline is who it is written by. What is the Comments? These are the same as what are on Blogs. What is Sponsored Content? This is when people pay to have their ads shown. What is related Content? This is content that have similarities to the things your reading! What is the URL? This is the one of a kind link to the site your on. 

My  News Report 

Rimus Athletics!

Written By Maddie on 3/11/20

ATHLETICS!!!

This was held on the third week of the term. There was 5 activities that everyone ( other than two people because they cant run ) had to participate in. We had been practicing for a long time before this event learning all of the tips and tricks to challenge ourselves further and try to get the goal of getting into zones. A lot of us were discouraged by the standards we all had but we all gave it a go. First we did sprints year 8s had 60 meters and 100 meters to run! The most shocking thing I did was in shot put and high jump. I made 1.5 meters on high jump whitch was just short of what I needed for Zones. Shot put I was proud of because I id a lot better than in my practices. We all had to wear out house colors and the house leaders got to hold the house relays. The seniors of the school got to race against the parents and the teachers in their own relays! Overall we had an awesome day and its sad to think that this is the last  time year 8s get to have athletics in Yaldhurst Model School.

Thank you all for coming onto my blog! Please come again! I would love to read some of your comments! I hope you all enjoyed and learned something by reading this post . What's your favorite sport? Do you play any sports on the weekends? What's your best  athletic strength ?

NYLD!

 Kia Ora!

Welcome back to my blog!

Do you guys know what NYLD is? Well if you don't this stands for National Young Leaders Day! This is where tons of different schools come together to learn and to see a whole heap of leaders  you get to listen to them in what they do and they can teach you all sorts of things to help you become a leader!

It is all super fun and you get to participate i all the crazy games and even throw a giant beach ball around the room! I KNOW AWESOME RIGHT! NYLD was definitely a time I could never forget and I am so glad I got to hear and learn about all of those people.

Reflection! I think that NYLD was an awesome time to spend the day with all of the yelling and singing and just having fun even though my throat has become pretty sore. I really enjoyed seeing all of us on the huge TV with all of our school waving! My favorite part was listening to all of the speakers and the giant beach balls which is an NYLD tradition.

Thank you all so much for coming onto my blog and I hope you come back here again! I hope that you have all learnt something today! Have you ever been to NYLD? If not do you want to? If so what was your favorite part.

The Whispers

Welcome to my blog! 

Thank you all for coming. Today I will be sharing with you all a review of a book that I am reading this book is called The Whispers  by Greg Howard. I have written this review because I think that it is an amazing book especially if your into magical things or things that are supernatural. I would definitely recommend it. There are alot of other important topics and life lessons that have been taught in the book aswell.

My Reflection! I am super happy I have read this book and I am also really proud that I have went outside of the box because I don't usually read books like this and I decided to give it ago because it reminded me of the last book I read called the list. I really hope I can make more blogs about this in the future and I am definitely going to read more books like this one or even some more from Greg Howard!

 

 Thank you all for coming onto my blog and I hope to see you all here again!

Have you heard of Greg Howard? Do you enjoy reading? What are your favorite types of books to read?

Cybersmart! Being Kind!

 Kia Ora! 

Welcome back to my blog!

Today me and the rest of Rimu have been learning all about Kindness and how others have shown it and how we can too. Even in just small ways we can make a huge difference. We played this game where one of us said some hurtful things and the other only responded with things that were kind to see how the bully couldning continue anymore. I think this is a great way to share this considering that pink shirt day will be coming up soon, Click this link to see where we got this work from (Uru Manuka Web ) LINK!

Ways to be kind! TRY SOME! 

My Reflection! 

 I think that this was an awesome thing to work on! I think that we learnt some good tips that could help us and others in the future. I really enjoyed the idea of this and doing the research and learning about how others have been kind and what we can do to help others or to make someone's day.

Thank you all so much for coming onto my blog! I hope you learnt something new or found this as interesting as I did. Please come back again! Are you going to participate in pink shirt day? Have you before? Have you had a case where you stood up to a bully? I would love to know.
