Information Report - Kiwis


Today a lot of dedicated people help to prevent kiwi from becoming extinct.The kiwi is a small bird. Did you know 200 years ago New Zealand’s forest echoed through the night air.

The kiwi is the nickname giving to us by the australian’s in the world war 1. So the kiwi is a very important bird for New Zealand. The kiwi is the New Zealand icon. it cannot fly, has loose, hair-like feathers, strong legs and no tail.Kiwi are the only bird to have nostrils at the end of its very long bill which is used to probe in the ground. Kiwi are long-lived, and depending on the species live for between 25 and 50 years.

The threats to the kiwi’s are stotes,possums and Dogs. All dogs, regardless of size, breed, training or temperament are potential kiwi killers. Farm dogs, hunting dogs, visiting dogs and pet dogs are equally attracted to the strong distinctive scent of kiwi.

So what do you think you could do to take care of the Kiwis.

Active Frog


Different frogs can jump different heights and lengths. Your standard garden variety frog can jump heights as much as 10 feet and as long as 6 to 9 feet. Frogs have such long powerful hind legs which gives them that extra boost.Frogs jump are  measured in how far then  rather than how high.

Frogs have very powerful back legs and webbed feet that help them jump great distances, as well as, swim.  Frogs even use their legs to dig, or burrow, underground for hibernating. Certain frogs can jump up to 20 times their own body length in a single leap.

A frog is an amphibian. They lay their eggs in water. The eggs hatch into a tadpole which lives in water until it turns into an adult frog.Tadpoles look more like fish than frogs, they have long finned tails and breathe through gills.
An amphibian can live both on land and in water.

Although frogs live on land their habitat must be near  
swamps, ponds or in a damp place. This is because they will die if their skin dries out.
Instead of drinking water, frogs soak it into their body through their skin.
Frogs breathe through their nostrils while also absorbing about half the  air they need through their skin.
Frogs use their sticky, muscular tongue to catch and swallow food. Unlike humans, their tongue is not attached to the back of its mouth. Instead it is attached to the front.

The Beach


On hot summer morning, my mum, brother  and I went to the beach. It took us  about 20 minutes to get to the beach.  When we arrived my brother grabbed his toys. When my brother got to the sand  him and my mum had a sand castle competition.   When they finished I had to judge.  I picked my little brother because his was bigger than hers.  After that  my mum was as hot as it was like she was near the sun. So  she went for a little swim.  When my mum went for a swim a few seconds later  I went to sleep.

When my mum got back she woke me up and said “
Siua where is your  brother.” I said “
He was still building his sand castle.”  When I looked around I did not see him.  There were too many people.  My mum and I splited up she went left and I went right.  When I was walking I saw some of my friends. The first person I saw was Tane. He was eating ice cream.  Then I saw Angeling.  She was tanning.  I asked her if she had seen my brother.  She said “
YES YES.” he went that way.  When I saw him I said “
Come here you have to go to mum.” he came to my mum.  My mum said”
where were you.” My brother said”
I was getting some things to decorate my sandcastle.

When we got home my mum told him to make her some toast for running off like that.  When he finished making my mums toast he went to his room and went sleep. I had fun at the beach.

Taekwondo



 


Every Wednesday last term we had taekwondo. Our teacher was Mrs Robinson. Taekwondo is a mixed martial art. On the first day of taekwondo we learned the tenets of taekwondo.  Is I shall observe the tenets of taekwondo   I may never misuse taekwondo I shall be a champion of  freedom and justice I shall respect the instructor and seniors. I shall build a more peaceful world.  


Then we stood in a line. Then we punched the boxing bag 4 times and then went to the back of the line. When  we finished our punches we did some kicking in the air. one of the kicks we learned was called flickey kicky. After that it was time to go back to class. We said our tenets and left to class.  At the end of all the  lessons it was time to break a board. I broke  the green bored in one kick. that was easy. After that I sat in the corner of the room.   


So after all the lessons I learned that.   Taekwondo is the best defences when you are in trouble.

Seagulls that fight






There was a seagull named Tim  and a seagull named Ifa. They are best friends. Every day Tim and Ifa went to Glen Innes school field. When it is lunchtime Tim and Ifa wait for the children to drop their food.  Tim and Ifa would fly as fast as the wind to go and  eat the food. When Tim and Ifa ate their food they ate like they never ate before.  One day a  kid from room 9 dropped their fish. Tim saw the fish first but Ifa got to it first.  Then tim and Ifa were fighting. None of them were backing down. Then they left the fish and Siua got the fish and flew away.  when they saw Siua fly away they were angry and flew away.  They went after Siua but he was too fast. He was fast like the wind. Tim and Ifa gave up and went and looked for some food.

I have a pet is a dog.  His is an American and British Bulldog. He is so cute.  If someone tries to rob my house  my dog will  attack him. In my spare time I like to play sports with my friends or just sit down and talk.
