100 wc week33

I sat watching the birds. When all of a sudden the birds swooped down and stole my sandwich. I yelled at the birds then went inside to make another sandwich. I went outside with my new sandwich and sat down. The birds were sitting in the tree “stupid sparrows” I said. I started eating my sandwich when the birds started getting closer. I went inside back inside and watched them from the window. I went into the kitchen and grabbed some moldy bread. I went into the garden and threw the bread onto the grass. The birds ate it happily.

The birds swooped down and started eating the bread that I threw out to them, man the screeching sound makes me feel like I’m in a room filled of vicious lions eating a zebra.
It also reminds me of a crocodile catching a buffalo as its herd runs across the river.
There are many types of birds that I am feeding, there are ducks, geese, fantail, parrots and also three baby pukekoes, and they’re so cute.
Suddenly they start running away because there is a dog coming.
Tomorrow I will just make sure I’m in a dog free zone, area.

Inter - Intermediate Hockey

On Thursday a group of students went to Inners Common to compete in the Inter-Intermediate Hockey Tournament.  As the students were all excitedly putting on thei gear they finally got on the bus.

It was around 9:30 when we had our first game against Peachgrove. As it was our first game we were all getting the hand of what posiion we were playing and lost. We still had high hope for the rest of the tournament.

In our second game we came up against Berkley. We were so close to getting a goal but they really have good defines and lost that game too. Our second to last game was against Morrinsville we finally got a goal and everyone was screaming with excitement and then as soon as we ran to half way and the referee blew his whistle they slip pass as and got a goal but we still had a tie. And our last game was against Fairfield we lost that game too but we still had a fun exciting day.


100wc Week 33

The trees are blowing in the wind, the grey clouds are covering the sky as I walk through the dark hollow woods, the birds swooped down and I fell the wind blowing in my face. I hear the flapping sound of the birds wings, I cover my face I fell the birds becks  trying to peck at my face the sound fades. I slowly take my hands away from my face, I see my hands are red and bloody  I slowly make my way back home from going tree to tree, slowly creeping in the woods there back again no.

Arbor Day

17 children went to Arbor Day from Melville Intermediate with three adults to help.

Arbour Day 093We left at 9:15am to go to Arbor Day.

We all were excited when we got to Waiwhakareke Natural Heritage Park. Their were lots of kids and adults, thats all we could see.
We had got told that we could get off the bus.'Ohh man it was cold outside', it felt like we were turning itto an ice-block.

It was a long walk by the time we got to the place were everyone was. 20 minutes came by and every-one was waiting paciently while there was a lady showing us how to plant the trees as well as she was planting the first tree of the day (kauri tree).


Arbour Day 100
It was time to get started planting. Bria was the first person out of Melville Intermedaite to plant the first tree, it was a very large baby tree. The time went so fast it was lunch time, every-one was heading up to the saugage sizzle. We all asked Miss De Ward if we could go up to get a saugage sizzle. "YES" of course. Miss De Ward walked into the tent to get a box and a bag full of Just Juice.

There was 1 hour left to plant the rest of the trees by the time we were getting on the bus to head back to school. We started to head over to the otherside of the farm to plant the plants that had not been planted.
Melville Intermediate Students planted 100 odd plants in the last hour. All the girls from Melville Intermediate were colecting the black conaners from the plants and putting them on the long black snake that the little kids made.

It was time to go back on the bus to go back to school. We all had a fantasic day, thanks to the perents.

100wc #33

As we went to the beautiful lake the THE BIRDS SWOOPED DOWN AND landed on me, I took out some of my bread and fed them. They looked very happy after I fed them. It looked like they were hungry before that is why they swooped down and landed on me, I kept feeding them until they flew away, then I went to the other birds and feed them. After a while my Mum called me and asked me if I wanted to walk. “Yes” I replied. Once we were half way my Mum stopped because she was really tired.

Inter - Intermediate Football



Soccer Tournament

soccer 009

Melville Intermediate boys football team was lead on to the field by Te Auripo Manguatu, and James Nove, on the 30th of May 2013.
Melville played a great first game, but having to play straight away had them a bit shaky out of the starting gates, losing to Fairfeild 1-0.
The boys lost there second game 2-0 against T.A, which had the boys spirits at an all time low, knowing that they win their last two games made them start thinking what do they have to do to win?
SMASH! a surperb strike by oue captain Te Auripo left us 1-0 at the half of game 3. The second half started and a great break away from Tane left the defence scrambleing back to goal as Tane crossed the ball into Brooklyn for our seconded goal, the finaly score 2-0 to Melville.
soccer 056The forth game our last chance of getting into the semi's, but we had to go against the hardest team there... Cambrigde. As always the Cambrigde boys back up their words as they said they'll smash us, a whooping 3-0 lost for Melville canceling any hopes of makeing it into the semi's.
Melville had one more game, 7th - 8th play off. At half time the score was nill all, and it was the same in the second half, but right in the dieing seconds of the game Tane scored a great goal for a 1-0 win to Melville.
Overall Place: 7th
