The Mystery Of The Disappearing Teachers
The Mystery Of The Disappearing Teachers…
On Thursday 21st January 2021, at Oruaiti School, all the students were at school. Some were in their classrooms, and others were playing outside. Ding!!! The bell has just rung and all the students have gone inside. To their surprise, the teachers were not in the classroom! “Where is Whaea Cindy?”, said Claudia? They stumbled across a problem. There were no staff in the school! Everyone started to cheer but 3 people, Claudia, Kadee and Jaylee. They searched around the room and found Wheae Cindy’s laptop open.
Jaylee finds that Wheae Cindy and all the other staff, were sucked into a soccer game. There was only one solution to help bring back the teachers. Jaylee,Claudia and Kadee must go into the soccer game and help the teachers win the game against Whaea Gina and her robots. If the teachers win, they safely come out of the soccer game and class can continue. If they lose, they will be stuck in the game forever! With that being said, The three girls placed their hands on Whaea Cindy’s laptop screen, and teleported to the soccer game. WOOSH!!!! The teachers were very relieved that 3 students managed to get in the soccer game. The girls explained that Kadee will train them until the game starts while Claudia and Jaylee will try to hack into the game system to give the teachers a higher percentage of winning.
The time has now come for the most epic soccer game ever. Teachers VS Robots (and Wheae Gina). They walked on the soccer field. The referee blew the whistle. DRRRRR!!!! The game had started and the teachers were having a very good start. GOAL!!! The teachers have gotten a goal but time is running out. GOAL!!! Oh no, Wheae Gina and her robots has now gotten a goal so the score is 1v1. If the teachers get one more goal they win! Tension is rising. GOAL!!!! Kadee has got the winning goal and the teachers have won!
BOOMF!!! The teachers have now teleported back into their classroom. Wheae Gina, and her robots, have been defeated. That just proves that not everybody is kind even if you know them.
The end!!!!!Monday, November 1, 2021
THE SHARK INCIDENT
The Shark Incident
One day out Paradise bay it was a decent day so the kid decided to ask the parents if we can go out to the water for a swim, they got their togs on and headed out, bayden and dayna stayed in the shallow and the older kids went out deeper.
Hayley and I were swimming around when i noticed something in the corner of my eye it was something dark and big swimming in the water I tell
Hayley so we decide to start heading in to tell the adults the adults yell out to come back in Jazzlyn and Evana at the time were still out deep so we yell really loud to come back in they start coming in slowly not knowing that the shark was right behind them.
Jazzlyn and Evana safely get back not knowing what's going on. Me and Hayley chat to them and tell them that the shark was hanging around. The adults decided that they were going to try and catch it, Sc0tt and Gl3n got the line out and tried to catch it.
Sc0tt went out deeper to try catch the shark and when he got close he noticed that it was a bronzie he came back in and told us the news “it's a bronzie” said scott, we didn’t catch it But after lunch we tried again we tried and tried. In the end we didn't catch it, so now when we want to go for a swim we get the slip ‘n’ slide or we scan the water.

production reflection
Production reflection
By Jaylee
Our production on tiddler this year was quite incredible. I think it went well, most kids were nervous but I was excited because I hadn't done production in a long time. My favourite part of the production were the costumes that Michelle and Hannah made. I think to make the production better is that we could make the music quieter so you can hear the kids singing. I do think I reached my goal from the start of the production: put my head up, stand tall and smile. The most difficult part of the production was fitting the kids on the stage for we are the world. I learned that not everything is easy.

My production goal
My production goal is put my head up stand tall and smile.
I have chosen this for my goal because I don't tend to smile because I get shy. My 2nd reason is stand strong but not just stand there and not be the centre of attention.
My second goal is to be tu maia / stand strong and be brave.

Term 1
Term 1
Term 1 was all about me settling in to Oruaiti
School the first day was nice I got to know most of the people I met a amazing teacher she was new to the school too. There was about 8 or 9 new students in manuka.
There were lots of challenges throughout the term like the noise level made it hard for me to learn my math reading and writing / concentrate , speaking about learning my .
My goal for next term is to offer for more jobs.
