Duffy Books

This week on Monday, we got duffy books from the Bucklands Beach Lion Club. We do this every once a year, and we get two each. We get these books for free because kind people from The Bucklands Beach Lions Club hold fund rasisers to give us these special gifts.

We need to look after these books like a treasure. We had had a special guest that used to be on Shortland Street and her name was Alison Quigon (Yvonne Jeffries)his is only one of the books that I got and it is called Spartucus and his Glorius Gladiators.

A big special thanks to The Bucklands Beach Lion Club who gave us these books. Click on this Bucklands Beach Lion Club and it will take you to there web site.

SAMOA DOMINATE NAMIBIA!!

The beautiful island of Samoa will be taking on Namibia. Samoa will be going from beautiful, to fierce since this is the RUGBY WORLD CUP 2011. This game will be on at Wednesday the 14nth of September at 1:30. This game will be held at Rotorua International Stadium which is in, of course, Rotorua. I predict that the score will be 45-21 to Samoa. GO MANU SAMOA!!

The Rugby World Cup Begins

On Friday the 9th os September, the Rugby World Cup Kicked off. It was also the night to celebrate ten years of the 9 11 attack in America. The opening ceremony was awesome. It got separated in to four parts. I reckon that it looked better on T.V, then live at Eden Park.

To kick off the tournament, the MIGHTY ALL BLACKS took on TONGA. I had a feeling that the All Blacks were going to have high points. But the score ended up being 41 - 10 to the All Blacks. Of course we knew that they were going to win, but it wasn’t the score that we were expecting it to be.

The crowd was awesome when they were cheering for their teams. When the teams were doing the HAKAS, the crowd went berserk. People supported really well and some people even dressed up.

Although the city struggled with the huge crowd, some people agreed that the opening ceremony was a huge success.

NEW ZEALAND THRASH TONGA!!!

Tomorrow the RUGBY WORLD CUP TOURNAMENT 2011 will kick off. The matches that will be kicking off the RWC tournament will THE ALL BLACKS up against the team with lots of fans, TONGA. This match will be crucial as it is the first match of the tournament. I predict that the the score for this game will be 108 to 7 to the ALL BLACKS. The best part will be when the ALL BLACKS do the HAKA and when TONGA do their chant.

KA MATE HAKA

In the beginning of the term Room 17 had a task. The girls got split up into how the HAKA got made, and the boys got to make a animation of the real All Blacks HAKA and got to pick a player. My player is Ma'a Nonu and this is My animation of the HAKA. I hope you enjoy it.
