Harry potter night


Last Friday room7 had our harry potter night fundraiser. There was a lot of food, drinks and fun. I was Harry but I forgot the most important part; the scar because I was in a rush. The food that I was bought was voldomorts pulverised blood which consisted of lime fizzy drink and ice cream. The quiz was the highlight of the night with my group coming second in a sudden death match.

Bye Bye

Paul the octopus experienced the biggest milestone in life: he died. He was a charity and a gambling guru. Stories might be told about him in the future, I know I would. He had Fame and food what more could he want? At least we know he had a great life and he passed away peacefully.

Christchurch earthquake

Recently the Canterbury region has had an earthquake measuring 7.1 on the Richter scale. This earthquake is bigger then the one the struck Haiti earlier this year, luckily it struck in the early hours of the morning when most people were in bed. Since then the aftershocks have been the size of earthquakes all on there own they measure from 5.8 to 6.5 on the Richter scale.Although there were no deaths it doesn't mean that the damage wasn't horrific, house foundations have been split in half or they have sunken into the ground by a large amount.
It's amazing that we haven't felt it up here in Nelson.

clockwork review



Suspense was almost on every page and it helped keep the book flowing. An example of suspense is when Sir Ironsoul approaches Gretel in an attempt to kill her.

The evil wasn’t proper evil it was more unnatural evil like when Prince Otto cuts out his heart and places it in the clockwork machine to keep his family dynasty going.

There was one major part of horror, that’s where the Baron sacrifices himself by jumping out of the sled right into a pack of blood thirsty wolves so Prince Otto and the clockwork machine can flee.

Mystery is one of the fist features of fiction that came into the story. When DR Calmenius walks

Ski trip

The totara syndicate is deciding if not to go skiing at rainbow ski field on September. All the kids are hoping and praying that we would go skiing. Me I'm one of those kids hoping and praying that we can. Last year I went skiing as a year 5 and I got kicked off the intermediate slope because I crashed into the pulley line.

My little sister

Right now I'm a sleep deprived little boy thanks to my little sister who wakes me up in the middle of the night at least TWICE!!!!. I still get to stay up till nine sometimes which I'm really happy about. When I try to hold her she makes this really big fuss because shes hungry. At bath time she tries to swim like a frog which is actually really funny.

Explanation

Uranium is a key factor in the deadly nuclear bomb. Its devastating effects were shown in WW2 and the bombing of Hiroshima. PHARAGRAH 2
Uranium is a metal; like iron we have to mine it from the ground. Men, machines and more machines are used to make gaping holes in the ground and bring up dirt to process and extract the uranium. As it’s done, it gets processed leaving mostly uranium oxide (90%) and then is processed even further leaving 100% pure uranium.

P3
Enriched uranium is very radioactive and dangerous. It is very hard to make and takes a long period of time to complete the process. Enriched uranium is mainly 238 and is extremely radioactive compared to 235uranium. Enriched uranium can be sent to Civilian power plants, Testing labs and nuclear factories.

P4
Lucky this metal is not for sale for the members of the public. It is a dream material for terrorists and people like that and for the people who create the bombs store the contaminated things in a safe place for the 100,000 years.
