Artspace 17 (My Pt.England Flag)


In Room 17 we have an art teacher named Olivia Muliamaseali’i and just recently we have done flags and this is my one. It all started when we had to do a rose and it is up on our wall. We then went on to the flag. We sketched our picture and then we went over it in vivid. After that we painted it in the colours we knew that would suite our flag. In my flag you can see the word RESPECT. I have chosen that word because our school and my country is RESPECTFUL. My flag has the colours blue and green. I have chosen those colours because blue is for the water and green is for the trees hope you like it.

Why Do Babies Need More Sleep Then Grown Ups?



Babies require more sleep than adults. The smaller the baby the more sleep they need.


When babies are little they do nothing but sleep and eat. They are always growing while they are sleeping. Young children also grow but not as fast as babies. They don’t need as much sleep as a baby, but they do need more sleep then adults.

Grown ups need sleep for a period of rest for their bodies. While they are sleeping the cells that a worn are being replaced. As long as they get more sleep, grown ups are ready for work the next day.

The bodies of grown ups only need food for energy. But bodies of babies need food for growing bones and muscles. Bodies of babies also need food for energy when they start turning 2 and 3.

What Are Hieroglyphics?

Hieroglyphics are hard to say, pronounce and spell. They are two Greek words, which means sacred carving. Hieroglyphics are familiar objects which are drawn to represent words, syllables or sounds.

Hieroglyphics were made on the marks on temples and palaces in Egypt. These buildings were made thousands of years ago, still stand today.

In 1799 a large stone appeared in Egypt. It was called the Rosetta Stone. The Rosetta Stone was written on a stone because they didn't have paper. It was written in Hieroglyphics and no one could read it. The stone was a decree, which was for a crowning of a king. Luckily underneath was a different language called the Demotic, and under that was Greek writing. A French professor discovered the Hieroglyphics and could read many more of them.

Spartans lived in Ancient Greece. They were always honest and courageous and loved freedom.


Two boys at the age of seven, were trained only were war. They both had long hair and had no luxuries. They got taken from their families. The boys learned nothing so they went to be policeman then on to solders.

Spartans fought all the time, either for themselves or for other city’s that payed them. The work were done for them by men and women captured by the Spartans. They were called Helots

The women of Sparta were very tough. They would always feast and celebrate when a death of a son were killed. If a son came back and had lost a war, the women would sometimes kill them.
