It was Ages ago when we had people come to our school to show us a DVD called Rebound.it showd that if youve been injurd in fatal accedent and docters said we could never walk again and we do. we watched a dvd all the the grade 6/7s it was so good. All theses people who did amazing things like sailing fome austarlia to new zealand and a heap more. this taught us a lot about rebounding from somthing bad to somthing good.

Drug addict: I knew someone who was a drug addict. It was really hard for this person to quit. S/he was in hospital recovering from an overdose he was only comforted by a little girl who read him stories and helped him recover. After that he tried to quit but the drugs were very powerful  and went back on them. He went back into hospital two more times and recovered fully. so he triumphed over adversity. But sadly he died days after.

Driver in a fatal accident: Sam Cawthorn was in a fatal car accident and and lost his left arm. He was in his car when it glided to the other side of the road  and crashed into another motorest. He was taken to hospital and treated for his injuries but they told Sam he would never walk again. But he worked on it and worked and he over came all odds and walked. He has changed sense the accident and is now confident enough the talk about it to children.

Children after divorce: I think that children after divorce have a rough time trying to get over it. They have many sleepless nights and have a very hard time at school. They’ll get bad grades, be very angry and  have a negative atitude to everything they do. Their perents have to sort everything at school, home and with other people like their friends and family. Other people dont understand what its like for them and the family. In the end they get used to it and get back to normal. Their family and friends are happy that they  have gone back to normal.

Returned Soldier: I think that a returned soldier has the hardest time getting over what they have seen and heard. All the dead people they have seen. They have seen their friends die and have killed people them selves i fell so sorry  for them. When they come home they have very bad memorys they will have forever and have nightmares every night. They have the hardest time trying to recover. They will remember what happened at war and stuff but they have the rest of their life to look up to.

unemployed person: Unemployed people have a hard time getting money for their family and themselfes. they get lack of money, confidence and friends. many people over 30 have a hard time finding a job and may not get a chance to get a job. So many people lose their home after losing their jobs and children have to drop out of school to help their mum/dad. But some companys let older people work there and other companys help them find jobs like S.T.E.P.S

The title says it all. What do you use to do your business?…… Its a toilet and its a was a special day just on the 19 of November. It was “World Toilet Day“. Did you know that many children die because of the lack of cleanliness in their country.  If they want to live they need clean water to drink, good hygiene and good food to eat to. There is a “world toilet day” banner (top left)  and to me it looks pretty good. Why don’t you try Squat for a minute see what it’ d like to squat and go to the toilet.

They going to this website to find out more.

Our class squat ed for one minute and this what it was like.

• Our legs went stiff
• we couldn’t keep our balance
• It strained our muscles
• and I fell over like a million times.

So try to think of what  the refugees have to do and try to help in any way you can.

Peace Out

Hi again its Skye. It was just yesterday that a ex student by the name of Robin Moore. She was the voice of the famous cartoon koala blinky bill. She is a voice over person for many of commercials. she had done many of the voices of the animals in the adventures of blinky bill. sha gave us a motavational talk about not being small and going for our dream. it was a great experience for everyone.Our childhood favorite blinky bill song  happy birthday over the P.A system for one of our teachers. it was so much fun.

Well Hi again. If you read my last post you would have known that our class has been working on Ancient history and also you would have known that I’m working on Ancient Greece. Well i am working really hard on this so i really want you to know how in going with it. So i am doing the art, games and medicines. I’m getting allot of work done and i cant wait to see how it turns out. we have to do a 15 to 20 mins presintation and there are 4 people in our group so thats about 5 mins each. Anyway so i know the plants and herps they used to make medicines, illnesses they had and allot more for that subject. I’m learning about the paints and methods they had. I’ve also learned abot the games they used to play. This is a bubbl.us of what I’m doing.

The history of the world is very important to everyone and in history at my school we have been doing allot about the ancient part of it. We have been appointed to groups and our group happens to be Ancient Greece.I am doing art and health. They are very interestin subjects. one of our group members (Jessica) has made a mind map on bubbl.us and will show at the end of this post. Any way back then they had many different ways of using tools for art and building. Any way this mind map will show you and every one else who wants to know what we are doing. I hope if you do a project or post about this time this will be a good source on info for you.

Hi its Skye again. Our school has just had its school house Athletics carnival. GO DAVIS!!!!!!!!!!!!. Each year the high school  gets together in a Athletics carnival to compete for the house trophy. This year DAVIS must win or we lose yet again. Now enough about DAVIS so ill start to talk about the 2 days. So there were allot of events to take part in including track and field. Events like 100m, long  jump, high jump, triple jump, and so much more. On the first day i missed out on alot of the events like the 100m and stuff like that but i took part in the 200m and the 400m. i didnt get a place in the 200ms grand final but in the 400ms i was great. it was a grand final straight away because of the lack of grade 6s competing but that was good. As soon as the gun shot we were away and running with the wind. At first i was comeing 1st then 2nd then 1st again. Then Lucy (who i was running with) started to sprint around the last corner. She got a great  lead but i was coming a great 2nd.we passed the line and it was a great feeling.

The next day was the last day and i did every event for grade 6s. It was the day of the 800ms and i was ready. I was right  at the back and then the gun shot and we were off. It went on for ages and i was so puffed i  could hardly breath. Soon arfter we started we were on our last lap and i was coming 2nd again but i felt good. I was running so fast and i came 2nd.

I have just found out that DAVIS has came 2nd.

GO DAVIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So many days I have been away from school, and most of these havebeen sick days. The flu, gas tro and many more. My mum would say “stay in bed and tell me when you need something”. Then Iwould take this to my advantage.   ask mum to get me juice, toast and candy. The worst so far is when Iwas carryed out of school by an AMBULANCE. I had fallen on my neck and badly injuredthe soft tissue. I was in the the hospital for 5 hours. so i highly recommend not to fall on your neck. If you want to fake a sick day go to this blog lochiewya09.edublogs.com. It tells you how to pull one and some good tricks to make it look real.

This term I would love to live up to my goals I  have set. These are my goals for this therm

school:  This term my school goals are very important to me this is because I would love to complete the school year withgood grades and even better memories. my goals are to do better in literacy, maths, music, and P.E. These are the subjects I’m having some trouble in and hope I do. I believe that if Ido well in school I will get a good job and may get respected when I am older.

Home: At home  really need to help more around the house and do jobs such as: help clean the pets out, do my room, wash up, and many more jobs like that. We have a small yard but it needs lots of care now that the grass has been growing really fast so I help mow the lawn when it is nice weather.

Attitude: This term I will be working on my attitude to work in some subjects and improving my consaltration as well. I am hoping that  I will also improve my attitude to working around the house. If I improve my consaltration i will be better in many of my subjects.

I am hoping that this term will be the best out of them all. I’m looking forward to hearing from every body on what their goals are for this last term.
