Tom and Katie went for a five kilometre run. Tom took 40.23 minutes to complete the run while Katie took 40.92 minutes.

Who was faster and by how many minutes?

Cheryl had 3.5 litres of water to water her plant. Each plant needs 0.5 litres. How many plants can Cheryl water?

Sione ran 0.45 kilometres more on Friday than Saturday. On Saturday he ran 11.25 km. How many kilometres did Sione run on Friday?

The problems above are what my group and I did for maths this morning. The hardest one for me would be the last question. 

For Question 3 this is how I worked it out I worked it out by doing 40 + 20 = 60 and 5 + 5 = 10 so it is 11.70 or 11.7

Bill Mclaren 2015

On the first week of the term 2 holidays I played in a tournament called Bill McLaren. I was representing East. 

On Monday we had a game at Orakei Domain, we played Central. At the end of the game we were victorious, the score was 35 - 7.

On Tuesday our next game was against West at Mt Wellington War Memorial Park. We came out victorious again the score was 42 -0 

We did not play on Wednesday because our coach defaulted and we already won both games and we advanced straight into the final, so that day we had a training session.

Thursday was a rest day for the final.

Friday came and it was a big day for both South and East. We thought it would be a tight game but it wasn't' the final score was 31 - 5. When the referee blew his whistle we all were screaming a cheering. 

After that we went to receive our medals and our Captain Sione Kau got the award Player of the tournament. After we finished that we went to have burger and chips.

That was a tough week but we pulled through

Myth

One day there was one baby dinosaur named was John. He was a Spinosaurus and had a big mouth, also sharp teeth, sharp claws and he was about 3ft tall. When John turned 18 years of age his mum enrolled him into one of the High Schools. His mum was so excited for John to go to school. When John arrived to school there were some kids that were kind enough to let John play with them.

When the bell rang for Morning Tea John went to go and eat loads of meat that his mother put in his backpack. When he finished eating all the meat John went to play on the field where no one was there. After John finished running around the field there was a bully and the bully’s name was Luke. He came and bullied John and then that's when John felt sad and ran out of school.

When John ran away he was never ever to be found. John found a nice place for him to stay and John stayed in a suburb called Glen Innes. This suburb was filled with big buildings. John invited other dinosaurs to his house. After John invited dinosaurs to his house they thought about moving there because they liked the area. John let them come over because he was lonely. John went to see his mum and asked her to move in with him. She said yes and they never told anyone what happened to John.
