Why we don't want chromebooks in schools.

HELLO PEOPLE OF THE WORLD,

I AM HERE TO TELL YOU WHY WE DON'T CHROMEBOOKS IN SCHOOLS. 

IF WE GET CHROMEBOOKS AT SCHOOLS PEOPLE WILL DO EVERYTHING ON COMPUTERS AND GET ADDICTED TO THEM. THEN PEOPLE WILL BE OBESSE AND UNHEALTHY. ITS A RIDICULOUS IDEA THAT SHOULD BE ABOLISHED.  RESEARCH SHOWS THAT YOU REMEMBER LESS WHEN YOU LOOKING AT A SCREEN. WHEN THEY COME OUT IN SCHOOLS ITS $4 TO PAY FOR A CHROMEBOOK SLOWLY AND  $480 DOLLARS TO PAY ALL AT ONCE. THAT'S FINE FOR ONE CHILD, BUT WHAT ABOUT PEOPLE WHO HAVE 4-6 CHILDREN? $4 DOLLARS BECOMES $24 AND $480 BECOMES $2880.

The Beach

I hopped out of the car with my boogie board and skidded around the corner of the our toilets with the ramp lying in front of me. I leaped onto it and ran... I gained speed as the bottom drew closer: I realised that I was running too a fast so, in a vain effort to stop from face planting, I jumped off the ramp but I was too late. I let out a yell before it was muffled by sand as it erupted from under me as I struck it face first; I got up and staggered over to the salty sea water to rinse out my mouth.
P.S. I LOVE the beach!!! And carrots! Definitely carrots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Rugby Game (Continued)

The whistle blew for the second half as we raced back onto the field. this time the other team kicked off to us. I grabbed it and ran a few steps, only to be brought to my knees by a tackle that came in like a missile closing in on its target. The fords blew over the top and Sam picked it up and passed it out to the backs, who ran with all their might at the opposition. we pushed but they pushed back, this time with enough force to blow us off the ball. One of their backs got the ball and sprinted as hard as he could towards the goal line. We gave chase but he was too fast. he got pass our last defence, the half back, with ease. he scored: they cheered. "SCORE!" they yelled triumphantly while we charged down the drop kick in an attempt to stop them scoring the points. This was not the end of the game though, we still had some time left. We played very hard to get the score up higher for us again, even though we were still in the lead. Kaleb got a run away goal after we used one of our calls, bath to signal that we wanted a kick. We were right in the middle of a ruck that we had held up the full time whistle blew. We had won! The score was 63-12 to us. we had keep the small wooden rugby shield once more!

Rugby game (Saturday the 31st May)

Last week we played rugby. We were going up against Green and black, the Maheno team. The first whistle blew. We kicked off to the other team a chased it down like a pack of wolves stalking a sheep. A girl from the other team picked up the ball and sprinted at us. The forwards blew over the top and stole the ball. We passed it out too the backs who charged at the opposition running and falling to place it back. Then Lachlan grabbed the ball and went for a try. He fended got tackled and… try!!! He placed it over the line and fell as he was tackled to the ground. Sam picked up the ball and kicked the conversion over the posts. By half time this had repeated a few times and some people were feeling a bit tired.
