LC10 with Mrs T Year 5

Cross Country Reflection

At the beginning of term when we started Cross Country Training I felt nervous because I didn't know if I was good enough. Now Cross Country is finished, I feel proud because I think I did well. I represented Tui House in the Cross Country. We finished 2nd. My goal for Cross Country next year is to stay in the top 10 again.

Fishing Story

On Monday 3rd May the Minstrel came to Riverdale School. He taught us all about fishing. In class we wrote a story on a fishing experience. We are learning to be interesting writers by using lots of adjectives and details. We have learnt to get straight into the action.

I think my story is good because it has lots of details.

To improve my writing next time i will add more adjectives.

Georgia's Introduction

Kia Ora! My name is Georgia. I am 10 years old and i turn 11 on July the fourth. I live in Palmerston North and the population is 80,000. I go to Riverdale school and at Riverdale school for our uniforms we have green tops with a logo and a collar, navy blue skorts, shorts or long pants. We also have a wolly pollar fleece. There are 300 people that go to Riverdale school. I am in the senior team and this year is my last year at Riverdale school. A cool thing about Riverdale school is that you can choose to be in Chior, Tapowi and Noteable Sounds. I am in all of these activites! My teacher is Mrs Bron and he is really cool. Writing is my favourite subject and so is Reading. I would rather read a really good chapter book than watch T.V!!! I have a mum, a dad, a brother and a sister. My brother is 9 and his name is Camryn. He is sometimes really annoying and he likes rugby. My sister is 5 and her name is Nadia. She likes dolls. Our family has three pets, 1 dog named Charlie, 1 bird named Benji and 1 kitten named Arieil. (My sister named her.) My mum plays netball and used to be a teacher before I was born and she might do some relieving and I am trying to be really good at netball like her and I also want to be a teacher when i grow up. My dad works at a university in Palmerston north called Massey University. I have lots of friends. They are all really nice. In my spare time I like to play netball, figure skating, swimming, keyboard and I absouloutly love skiing even though I dont go skiing much. I do jazz dancing twice a week and I do guides after school on Wednesdays with some of my friends. I like so many movies but my favourite movies are Another Cinderalla Story, Hannah Montana The movie, The Last Song and The Game Plan. My favourite foods are Pizza, Watermelon and Chocolate!
