details on it. It was easy to draw the clock and all the windows. My draft looked really bad but my good copy looked way better.

Today in Whetu we have found out who the person was that stole the chocolates and the HDMI cable the criminal was Mrs. Taaffe aka my Mum. The crime scene was in Whetu's milky way Ngatea Primary School. Mrs. Taaffe stole the HDMI cable and around 18 milky ways. Mrs. Taaffe stole HDMI cable because she was having trouble casting with her computer and she stole the milky ways because she felt like on but she stole 18. Mrs. Taaffe disabled the alarm for the school in the office and then unlocked the door. Mrs. Taaffe committed the crime Friday the 9th of October. This morning Mrs. Taaffe came into team Whetu to confess some things and she said that yes to all our evidence.
Our evidence was that her fingerprints were all over the crime scene, Mrs. Taaffe parked in front of the office on the day of the crime and that is the way she went, Mrs. Taaffe was at school on the day of the crime, Mrs. Taaffe had a cut on her wrist, she went to the hairdressers after she took the milky ways and the HDMI cable and she likes mini chocolates.
For the letter of the week this week I did the letter c. This week I felt like I went through the ten questions faster than I ever have before. I found it easier because the letter was c.

This week for the blog challenge I did the Halloween one. I had to find out where Halloween originated, what it celebrates, what trick or treat means and what traditions are held on the day. Here is my photo.
This year for athletics I made it into all the running finals. I came 4th in the 60-meter final, 3rd for the 100 meter final and 2nd for the 200 meter Final. All the other years in athletics I had been into running but this year I was into the felid events. I'm not sure how I did in the long jump because I went strat to the back of the line once I did my jump. I did better than I thought I would in the shot put I'm pretty sure I came 2nd and my longest push was 7 meters and 4cm! In the 60 meter heat, I came 1st or 2nd, in the 100-meter heat I came 2nd, and for my 200-meter heat, I came 1st. For the relays, I was in the 8-9-year-old group for Orewa I had Desmond, Miller, Kian and we came 3rd.
Today for my rotation I did fingerprinting. I had to rub my thumb in my hair because it gets oil my fingers and then I put my finger on the window, then I put a piece of Sellotape on it, then took it off and put it on a black piece of paper and this is how it looks like.
This week for the rotations I did fingerprints. I used ink to roll my fingers into a box then on the paper. I had all three different prints I have 6 arches, 3 loops and 1 whorl. It was hard to tell what my right pinky was because some of the skin was peeled off.

Today and yesterday Whetu has been trying to figure out the crime scene in the milk way. So far we have
found all the things that the thief has broken or left out. The thief has left a lot of clues for us. I have earned my first badge the badge is a magnifying glass. I am looking forward to seeing who it is.

For my inquiry, I did bugs galore. Our group for making the bug hotel was Nathan, Oscar, Rayn, Cullen, Janko and I. We used a tyre, cans, sticks and leaves. It is by the lizard garden at the corner of the school.
I enjoyed doing this here is my photo!!!!!
This week the letter of the week was M. I liked doing m because it was an easy letter to find words for.
This maths mystery I had to figure out what subject the teacher was teaching. It was fun but harder than the other one. Because each clue was different from the other ones the hardest clue was the one with the dots.
This week one of the maths challenges are the mystery of the missing medal. It was about punctuation it was fun and easy because I knew were all the punctuation went.
Heres my photo
This week is Maori language week so Whetu has done a challenge for it. Our challenge was to choose a Maori word or a sentence. I choose to do Tino pai to Mahi the meaning of it is very good work. I recorded myself saying it correctly. The last thing I did was write when you could say it to someone.

This week our homeroom has stared Letter of the week. The letter this week was g. To do this I had to follow ten steps. It was fun doing this. I got to change the letter fonts and change the colour of the background. I have liked doing letter of the week.
This week for my coordinates I did a zoo. It was easy to do because of all the other coordinates I have done. The part I liked the most was putting your own animals were you wanted to. The other coordinate I had to follow to make a shape, the shape I made was a heart. This one was hard because it was minus than a number and then another number and then a minus. I enjoyed doing the coordinates because they are very fun.
This week for my mystery I did the Escape the hut. I did it with Franklin. To solve it we had to figure out 10 digits to escape the hut. This has been one of the hardest mysteries yet! I have enjoyed doing this challenge as well!!!

This term I have been working on A New Zealand famous person. For my famous person, I chose Jonah Lomu I chose him because I didn't know much about him and because I really like rugby. To do this I had to do some note-taking and then write a report and then Mrs. Kennedy printed it out and last I drew some things on it that represent Jonah Lomu.
This is my report and my photo!
Jonah Lomu
Jonah Lomu’s full name is Jonah Tali Lomu. Jonah was born in Auckland, New Zealand on 12th of May 1975. He lived in Tonga with his aunt and uncle for part of his childhood. His sister's names are Sela and Irene Lomu. Jonah’s brothers' names are John and Noah Lomu. Jonah Lomu had three wifes their names are fiona lomu, Tanya Rutter and latest wife was Nadene Quirk. Jonah’s kids' names are Dhyreille and Brayley lomu. Jonah Lomu’s parents' names are Semisi and Hepi Lomu. Jonah Lomu went to Wesley College as well.
Jonah Lomu had problems with his kidneys. The kidney disease he had was very rare and he was unlucky to be one of those people to be diagnosed with it. He underwent a kidney transplant in 2004. In 2015 Jonah lomu died from a heart attack related to his kidney problem. There were three public services held to his Honour. He was only 40 years old when he died.
Jonah Lomu’s success is great, he was known all around the world. He won the player of the tournament in the Rugby World Cup. Jonah Lomu scored four tries against England in a test International! Jonah Lomu made his test debut in 1995 against France at Lancaster Park in Christchurch and lost 22-8. Jonah Lomu was the youngest to play for the All Blacks! His age was 19 and 45 days old!
McDonalds named a burger after him in 1996 it was named the Jonah burger.
It would take four players to take down Jonah Lomu if he was playing his best.
There was a wax model of Jonah Lomu at the Madame Tussaud in London.
I chose Jonah lomu because I did not know much about him. I didn’t even know about his death and I also chose him because I like rugby a lot!
This term for art I have done pop art. For my pop art, I did surfboards. The surfboards were longboards.
I did surfboard because I like to surf and because it is easy for me to draw. This is my photo!
This term we have been deciding on if animals shod kept in zoos. I think animals shod be kept in zoo because zookeepers could tell you about the animals. After we finished our research we had to present our work in some way. You could choose if you wanted to do a poster, a brochure or an advertisement. I chose to do a brochure here is a picture of my brochure.
This week for my Maths Mahi I did enlargement, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, proportions and ratios. For my investigation, I did a star and a bee. The star was the easy one and the bee was the hard one.
Here are some photos.
This year for cross country we didn't go to south farms to do it. This year we ran around the domain.
I came first again but to do that I had to run from the trees all the way to the finish line and I just go there before Eli!
This is my reflection.
Cross Country Reflection 2020
This year I participated in the NPS Cross Country held at school on the Ngatea Domain.
I ran in the 9 age group.
I am most proud of not stopping when I felt like it. I am most proud of running all the way from the trees to
the finish line and by doing that I passed Eli and won. I am also proud of keeping my 1st place title!
( I have came first 4 years in a row.)
I think my effort towards our training at school was great. I think if I didn’t train I wouldn’t have come first
place. My highest amount of laps around the domain was 4 laps!
I showed the Learning Power of Resilience by not giving up at cross country when it got hard.
I made it to Hauraki plains cross country!
This week we went back to Chapter Chat!!! I did the freak out scale My worst one was your hairs on fire so scream like you never have!
Here's my photo!
This week for my maths mahi I learnt how to make a 3D net. It was fun making net and it was hard to do it because the paper wouldn't stay down. The fun part about making a net was because I didn't know what a net was!
This week for my Whetu Challenge I worked with my learning constellation witch is called Fozzie's.
For the Whetu Challenge, we had to draw characters form a certain place our group chose the Incredibles.
I did the dad it was going good but then I double pressed so I had to start again and after that, I didn't have enough time to finish.
This is what my end produced looks like.
I liked the Kermit's best.
