the sun

Did you know the sun is ten times wider than Jupiter?

And the sun is made out of gas,helium, hydrogen.

In fact eleven Earth’s can fit into Jupiter.

Furthermore the sun is like a hydrogen bomb.

The sun is a big gas fireball!

The sun is like a star.

The sun helps us breath and gives as food, water and shelter.

The sun’s real color is koura me te kōwhai.

The gravity of the sun holds Earth on its orbit.

Mokoia Pa

Mokoia Pa was a fortified pa. This is my story of what happened at Mokoia Pa. A long time ago a great battle took place at night. The Maori were ambushed that night. The gates were attacked and half the Maori were killed. The Maori of Mokoia Pa revenged them with a new battle in the morning.

I learnt about Mokoia Pa and there must have been a battle.

Having sleep is important so I can focus.

Tukotahi Panmure Birdge

Room 6, 7, 8, went to the yacht club to see the first Panmure Bridge. 

It was a swing bridge,it got demolished because it was not safe for people and cars. It became the old Panmure Bridge.

We can see Pakuranga from the yacht club. 

Farmers used to go across the swing bridge to work in their fields.

Two weeks ago there was a footbridge that broke in America. A student was going past the 8 lane highway the student got run over by a car. She died . The next day they made a new foot bridge. It was made in 6 hours it was made out of concrete. This bridge collapsed.
