My Holiday

Last Weekend, we went on a holiday to Guilderton. It was a great holiday, even though it lasted 3 days. We went down the river fishing, we didn't catch any fish but we did go up the sand dunes. While Chelsey was 'burying' Dad, I climbed up the sand dunes. While up the top I rolled down and I got a bad headache :D.  

The Next day, we went to the country club. I was amazed because the restaurant (not bar) was run by one waiter and one chef! It was delicious though.

On the last day, after my dad came back from his fishing attempt, he told us that he saved a group of Asians from drowning. I'm not sure I believe him though :P.

Integ

Today, we started doing glogster. We are researching a famous immigrant who came to Australia. I am doing Frank Lowy. I have finished my Glog while everyone else is struggling doing theirs. I have a link to my glog

Riddle Gully

Sorry, I haven't been on blogger for long. I have been mainly on holiday or just away. Today, I did Maths. We did a couple of quick fraction tests today which were really easy. In English, we are reading a novel sent to us through newspapers. The book is called Mystery at Riddle Gully. It is about a girl called Pollo Di Nozi who wants to get a cadetship at the local newspaper. Meanwhile, a boy called Will who is having troubles with his new stepfather 'Harry Butt'. Will sprays graffiti on a wall 'offending' Harry and almost gets in trouble.

The Minotaur 2

I made a 3d model of the Minotaur's labyrinth, it is not like my sketch of it because that would take 2 weeks. This is something I made well in 2 or 3 hours. I was going to get a picture off Google to be the Minotaur but the school printer was out of toner or something.

I am going to paint it later because the masking tape makes it look bad :/, I have some perfecting to do with it though like cover up some " Not supposed to happen shortcuts" and painting.

The Minotaur

I have completed a maze of the Minotaur. I have spent a lot of time (preferably 1 hour) in making this. I made it during a project set by our teacher Ms V.

Hope you like it :)

I had to hide my school crest :}

Life On Ice

Life On Ice. 

Yesterday, A man came and taught us about animals that live in Antarctica. He showed us about Elephant Seals, Penguins and Mawson. It was an incursion 

So today we started researching about creatures or events in Antarctica. I am researching about Falcon Scott and Amundsen.

I will show you a part of my research.

Amundsen set up camp at the edge of the Ross Ice Shelf which was a pretty risky thing to do, but it was risk worth taking. When Scott finally got to shore, Amundsen was 100km in front of him.

About Minecraft

I love playing Minecraft. It is not a violent game unless you put a mod (Moderation) on it. The main thing about this game is how large your imagination is. It is not a good graphic game but I believe you will get used to it. It costs about 31 Australian dollars. This video is also about the basics of Minecraft. You can play multiplayer as well :) .

The Long Weekend

Hello again, it's me. We are doing an assembly on Friday. I can not tell you because some other Classmates read this blog. I can tell you on Friday though.  I updated my banner, I hope you like it.  My cousin came over my house on Saturday to play Halo Reach with me. We then went sightseeing in a town nearby with me, my 2 cousins, my Mom and Dad and my sister.

After that my cousins went home. My dad had a leg operation which means he can't play football with me for 10 days until he can take off the bandage. So I decided to play some games on the Xbox 360 with my sister.

We also had a longer weekend extending from Saturday to Tuesday.

My House and Wordle

Hello I'm back, sorry I haven't been leaving many comments, This is my Wordle. I made it because I thought it would look nice. It expresses my feelings about me. I think you will like it! I will tell you about my home now.

I live on a farm which is a bit small. We have 3 horses named Bobby(A boy), Susie(A girl)

and Katie(A girl). I have 2 dogs named Sally and Molly, Sally is the energetic one and Molly is the grumpy and lazy one.  My sister's name is Chelsey , she is a little crazy. My parent's names are Peter and Vanessa ( I call them Mum and Dad :P )

I will show you a picture of my Parents and Dogs.

I like playing football in my free time and playing video games.

My favourite games are Minecraft and the Halo series.

Goodbye 

Mac Program

End of another marvellous day.  I will tell you about some other things I do. I have this thing happening which is a Mac program. Our parents buy MacBooks for yr 5-7s which I got last year. My laptop is pretty damaged :( . It does not make much difference except for it's looks.

Today we went to the museum in our town to learn a bit more about our brochure project. We call it Integrated Studies, or Integ for short. I am doing the Museum itself, I need to learn about the history of that building.
Next Integ is this Friday.

Another Average Day

Hello. Friday, the best day of the week. In Sport today we played Volleyball, it was a pretty short game.  We are also doing a project which is to replace the outdated brochures of our town and replace them with better and QR code activated brochures. I think it's cool.

Thank You. Matthew

This Is Me

Well hello everyone . I am a Yr 7 student. On this blog I am going to discuss about my school. I hope you enjoy!

Today we did some NAPLAN tests. They are EASY, i'm not so sure for other students!

We did the Non-Calculator and the Calculator maths tests.

I hope any other students who did that test went well.  We are not going to do any more NAPLAN tests this year!  I beg the scorers marked our test 100% correct.

In art, we were doing illusions. I didn't get the hang of it, it took me 5 sheets of paper to finish it. 

Here is my Final Product

Not Bad.  :)
