5 places you should see.

These are some places you should see.

The first place you should see is Eden park.
Eden park is really cool because the World Cup was placed there. And two days ago the 14th of september the All Blacks played against South Africa. Its funny because last year in room 16 we did a dance to represent a country that Kate  chose.  She chose .... SOUTH AFRICA. Here is a picture of Eden park.



The second place you should see is Mount Eden Mountain.
My opinion is that Mount Eden mountain is really cool because if you don't want to climb up the mountain there is a little well big play ground you can play on. And if you do want to climb up there there is a gigantic hole at the top. I think you would die if you jumped in the hole.  But there is grass at the bottom and there is chains saying 'DO NOT CROSS'.Its also cool because another name to call the mountain is Maungawhau. Maunga means mountain and whau  is a plant  which was on the mountain now its re planted down the bottom.




The third place you should look at is going to Clip n Climb in Mount Eden.
Clip n Climb is really fun to have a birthday. My little cousin Leonard went there for his birthday I think we stayed there for an hour and a  half. My favorite climbing block is the colour  block. At first I was scared I would fall off but I was holding on wrong. My favorite part of that day is jumping off the block I just climbing. Here are some things you can climb there.




The second too last place you should go is MOTAT.
Motat is really super duper fun. Motat is super duper fun because if your a history kind of person Motat is were you should be and if your a challenge sort of person Motat is also the place to be.If your a history kind of person you should go to Motat and see a really old train,cars,bikes,tractors and even get a ride on the tram thats how cool Motat is and if your a challenge sort of person you should go to Motat and go to the challenge zone,tec tile zone and mirror maze. If you are one or another of these Motat is were you should be.Im a challenge sort of person and I like the mirror maze tec tile zone and I like the challenge zone. Are you a challenge person thats up for a challenge or are you a history person that loves history.?




Last but not least you should go to GREY LYNN SCHOOL.
Grey lynn school is really cool because we have 2 parks soon we might get another one in the school forest we have a pool we have a new block for the Puriri. We have 3 teams in our school Puriri,Pohotukawa and Tortara. When you turn 5 years old  you would be a year 1 and you would be in Puriri team,then when your 6 or 7 years old you would be year 2 and 3 you would be in Pohotukawa
then when your 8,9 and 10 you would be year 4,5 and 6 then you are in Totara.This is what my school looks like.

My Top 5 Places In Auckland.

By Maya

These are the top places in Auckland that I think you should visit:

1. MOTAT[Museum Of Transport And Technology], Because it is really fun, helps children with learning and got a lot of cool activities.

2. The Auckland Museum, Because it is really interesting and fun at the same time.



3. The Auckland Zoo, Because it is full of animals and life.




4. The Sky Tower, Because it has a great view of Auckland and it can give you really nice food.

5. Rangitoto, Because it is an extinct volcano that you can climb and get a great view of AUCKLAND.

Last night he got out of his cage because somebody had not locked the latch properly but luckily he raced straight back to his cage. So since he was so freaked out Mum got him and gave him cuddles and Once he calmed down Mum took him back to his cage. marshmillo is massive for a Rabbit that is what the vet said.

Ponsonby Road Show

On Tuesday the 3rd of September all of the Totara Team went to go see the Ponsonby Road Show on our court. There was guitars,  keyboards, microphones, drums, and lots of other instruments. They also had mats on the court for the cheerleaders. First the orchestra played and a boy sang and then parts of band played and different people sang. After that there were three boys dressed in black and they did a very short samoan slap dance and there music was from a woodblock. Then Fay (the presenter who came to Grey Lynn school last year) introduced two girls and they did really amazing things with their bodies. They also did a bit of ballet. Next was a group that were wearing fairy costumes and dancing with them were the three boys that danced before but this time a girl was dancing with them. There was a girl singing a song when every else was dancing. The song was about  her telling them to get together and stop fighting over her. Then the first band came on they were called Naughts and Crosses they had really great singers. Fay came on again like she did between every act and introduced Dr. Pepper (a 12 year old boy) came on and asked for an asistent Fay chose Queenie. First he did a hand trick and then he did a trick with his briefcase and then Queenie got a chocolate. After that a band came on called the Thursdays and the funny thing was that they acherly had there band practise on Thursdays. Last of all they had the cheerleaders come on they were throwing people up in the air and catching them doing back flips and every thing. Then Hannah performed some gymnastic things and then we all had a good dance here are some of the videos.

Kiwi Kapers!

Yay its Wednesday I'm going to Kiwi kapers its a orchestra if you didn't know that. Ros the music teacher took 30 people from grey lynn school. I'm really lucky because I was one of those 30 people. first of all I will tell you where we sat we sat in the town hall up high we had great seats. First the strings section played, I quite liked that because it was piano and forte that means loud and soft. They played superman and batman and alot more other songs my favourite was batman. There are alot of instruments in the orchestra like the cello, violin, viola, double base and more. The sections in the orchestra are percussion, strings, brass and woodwind. There were 2 parent helpers they were a girls mum called Rachel and a boys mum named Ang. I thought the organ was pretty cool he played the lowest pipe it only vibrated because it was so low. I LOVED IT.
