Write some Positive and Negative things about Margret Thatcher 

A Positive thing about Margaret Thatcher is that she was the first woman to be a Prime Minister of Great Britain. Mrs Thatcher got a degree in chemistry which was very uncommon for a woman in those day. Mrs Thatcher invented whipping ice cream to make soft serve.       

A Negative thing about Margaret Thatcher is the she did not help the relations between England and Ireland. Mrs Thatcher didn’t work well with the unions and what she did changed the way the steel industries worked. Mrs Thatcher took away kids getting free milk at school every day.

Who do you find as a leader    

Joan Rawnsley

Through my athletics I have meet Joan and I believe that she is a great leader. Even know her children moved on from Children's Athletics 15 years ago she is still involved and loves what she does. Joan gives up a lot of her time to officiate and help us young athletes at competitions. I first remember meeting Joan at Hasting in 2011 when I was 10, she came and helped me set up my blocks for the first time and gave me encouragement, 2 years later She still comes and encourages me whenever She can. When their is a lot of presser Joan copes with it very well and keeps herself and everyone else around her very calm. At Easter when I traveled down to Timaru for Nationals Teams Athletics, Wakatio Bay of Plenty achieved third and she awarded our teams trophies to us as she is Treasurer for New Zealand’s Children’s Athletics.              

Extreme adventures Killer Whaler book response

Extreme adventures Killer Whaler

My book is: Extreme adventures Killer Whaler

The Author is: Justin D’ath

I chose this book because: The cover is a big killer Whale almost eating someone, so I wanted to read It to see what happens.  

A quick summary of the book :

The book starts with four people in a helicopter, a boy called Sam fox (main character) with his father, brother called Harry and the polit called Ross. They were flying over the Antarctica when they crash on the ice. As the Ice starts to break Sam and his younger brother become separated from the other two. Before long they are standing on a wobble iceberg and just when It seems It can’t get any worse A massive Killer Whale Emerges from the deep, dark sea with huge jaws and rows and rows of enormous teeth.           

This book made me think about what would happen If I was in a helicopter and it crashed onto the ice and a killer whale came.

The ending stays in your mind because when a boat comes and picks Sam and Harry up from the iceberg after escaping the killer whale they find out that the boat they get on is a boat that tries to stop people from hunting whales and when the book ends they are still on the boat fighting japanese trying to stop them from shooting a mother and calf swimming in the ocean

A series of unfortunate events book response

A series of unfortunate events

My book is: A series of unfortunate events

The Author is: Lemony Snicket

I chose this book because: Mrs Mills read it to us

A quick summary of the Chapter :

Some kids named Violet, Klaus, and Sunny went to the beach on a trolley. It was a cloudy black day at the beach and they were having fun when a guy came along called Mr Poe  and told them that their parents had died in a fire. The kids then went back to Mr Poe’s house.   

Chose two sentence starters from below to respond to.

This Book made me think about what would happen if my house burnt down and my parents died I would be very scared and would have no idea where I live.

The ending stays in your mind because the kids parents died and their house burnt down and they have to go live with their bank manager and I want to know how they got on.
