Under the wires day

Under The Wires 
Kia ora bloggers, On the 14th of April we had Under the Wires day! The reason was because we have been learning about Anzac Day. So the teachers decided to put loads of strings. When I arrived at school I saw kids waiting outside the classroom sliding door. My friends said the all of us weren't allowed inside because it was a surprise. My friend said the the teachers in Te Waka Ako was wearing black and paint on there face. After I looked under the blind inside and then I Saw the strings. I was wondering what we were gonna do inside the classroom. The bell rang and I went in the classroom and sat down on the mat with the other classes in Te Waka Ako. I saw the strings only in Waitemata and Hauraki. The teachers told Hauraki to get our Art book and crawl under the strings. I found a spot where I can sit. I sat with my friends. The teachers made the gun shooting from their phone. It sounded scary for me. When we were under the strings we had to do learning while we were under the strings. One of my friends wasn't scared. But I was scared. The teachers were distracting us while we were doing our work. All the teachers in Te Waka Ako had fake guns to shoot one of us. I was doing my work under the strings and my arms were tired and my elbow was sore because I was leaning on it. They played the gun shooting from a speaker. We weren't allowed to talk. 
My letter home
After a while we had to write a letter to our Mum or Dad or our family from the war. I wrote a letter to my family.

A while later we had to find a buddy. After we found a buddy we had to get a blind fold. And then we had to find a stick on a table and stay there. When we already found a spot we had to make a decision. One of us had to put a blind fold on. Also we had to wind the string up with the stick. And also we had to take turns. Bye bloggers.

Netball

Kia ora bloggers. In netball practise we had to split into 2 teams. My best friend was not on my team she was on the other team. My teacher was Mrs Jones. We practised shooting and doing netball passes. Also we played a game of netball. While passing to each other in our own team. When you're near the hoop you shoot the netball. We played a couple of rounds. The other team won and then we won. When you are holding the ball you stop with it and then you move your right foot and try to pass it to someone. One of the people in my team passed to each other and then we try to shoot the netball in the hoop. Some of the people in the other team was blocking us when we tried to pass the netball. I liked netball because it is my favourite sport and also it's my friends favourite sport. My other friend didn't join because she came when the bell rang and the papers had to be handed in while the bell rang. Bye bloggers.
