The death of Neil Armstrong has sadly passed away because of complications from heart surgery. He was born on August 5 in the 1930. He died of the age of 82 and they also will forget that no one has been on the moon since 1972, and he was also an engineer and a professor.
Neil Armstrong who was an American Astronaut who made the giant leap for mankind as the first human to stand on the moon. He was the commander for Apollo 11 and landing on the moon was apart of the Lunar space mission. He had two siblings and their name is June and Dean.
Mr Burt banged the clappers and we all sprinted off I was coming first. As I came around the corner the mud splattered on my pants. Suddenly we came to the reserve I was gasping for breath. Afterwards I was coming 11th I was saying in my mind I wish I was coming 1st. I came past heaps of people in the Cross Country I was saying to myself I hope I’m coming 4th or 3rd.
As we came to the Creek it was slippery, wet, and muddy. I came running down the hill bursting out speed. I was nearly coming first but I started to slow down because I was dehydrated. Then I sprinted all the way until I saw Tamaki College. Then I jogged for minute and I caught up to my friend Melvin.
Melvin and I were coming through the bridge we saw Mr J. Melvin and I were happy because we were back at the school. But the teachers said to run around the reserve and I was like tired as. As we ran to the reserve I was huffing and puffing. It was slippery, muddy, and wet. That was the worst run I ever had in my life.
Smoking is really disgusting and dangerous because it can cause many health problems. There are over 4000 harmful chemical in cigarettes. Three are nicotine, tar and carbon monoxide. Tar is a disgusting brown sticky substance that causes nasty diseases. It can damage your lungs, brain, and heart. It can cause you to have a heart attack. The main thing I don’t like about smoking is that people can die and suffer. More than 4500 people in N,Z every year.
Smoking is also hard to quit because it is so addictive. But if you stop smoking you will stress a lot. When people first start smoking you get a sense pleasure but if you're trying to quit it will be very hard.
Teenagers start because they want to be cool like their friends. But if they keep smoking they will be addicted to the smokes. If teenagers smoke their mind says to smoke again.
On Thursday afternoon Room 20 and Room 22 were going out to the courts and play some Basketball. We were learning some lessons about basketball like dribbling shooting and more. The lesson techniques is to make sure you keep your eye on the ball and listen. We also learned how to dribble and shoot.
First we did dribbling, dribbling was pretty hard because I kept messing up I was really angry cause I didn't know how to do it. So I kept on Practising and I got the hand of it I was really happy. Then it came on too shooting, shooting was hard because I was doing the hand techniques wrong. Then I kept getting into trouble. So he kept training how to shoot and the proper position.
The instruction was who ever get's up to fifth teen they win. Then we had to get into teams of 6 or 7 my team was the red team we had a won against the Blue but had a tie with the yellow team. Then it came to the green team it was pretty hard because they got really tall people. It was the green ball they passed it and passed it they were up to fourteen then Joe passed it to kitiona and then Heremaia intercepted. And it was a tie.
As the crowd was going wild Mckenzie had a smile of joy and muscles of confident.
The Weightlifter Precious Mckenzie was a athletic ability that was first recognised at the age of 11.
He had a Catholic mission with father Franklin and coached and trained him in gymnastics.
Mckenzie went back to his mother in Pietermaritzburg at the age 17. Precious also worked at a nearby shoe factory.
In 1958 he won the national Bantamweight weightlifting title. But for some reason he wasn’t chosen for the olympic games because his skin colour. Precious started training and competing other countries.
Joshua Iosefo, a perfect at Mt Roskill Grammar, had to deliver a speech to the school. Instead of a speech he wrote a poem titled “Brown Brother” Rashad post in an youtube where it care to the attention to campbell live, who presented on national television.
This poem was about people that believe in stereotypes. Joshua tells the school to don’t be afraid to change or don’t listen to stereotypes like limiting yourself. Joshua said not a change in skin tone or colour, but a change for one brown brother to another.
I felt really surprised because his poem is really good and nice. He talks about interesting stuff like skin tone stereotypes and more. We really appreciate his poem because it’s cool and fantastic.
