The Awesome A&P Show

On Friday Room 5 made and decorated fruit and veg and cookies. We entered the A&P show. My animal was a caterpillar and my cookie was someone flying away on a parashute. I had so much fun decorating my biscuit and making my caterpillar. After everyone had made a cookie we got to make one to eat at lunch time. Eating the cookie was the best part. When I made my caterpillar I made it with potato and grapes and a top of a strawberry. Thanks for reading my view on what happened at the A&P show.

Paige's Thailand story !

I went to Thailand when I was four here is a little story of me in Thailand. Its not the hole trip but its a good bit of it. I hope you enjoy reading it because it was so fun.


I went to Thailand and we had stayed at a few places and this was are last place to stay in called Cactus bungalows. It was my favorite place because in the morning when I woke up I would hear the sea and I would have a great felling to go swimming and have fun. I also really enjoyed  meeting different people. I tasted some cool foods too e.g spiky fruit.

Thanks for reading my story.

Dear Board of Trustees,

In my opinion bring your own device (BYOD) at Nelson Central School (NCS) is just not me. Devices should not be at school. BYOD is a letting people if they want to bring their IPAD’s, Tablets, Laptops and IPOD touches to school or some where else.

75% parents said that they don’t want their children bringing their devices to school. I agree with them and also think “NO” they shouldn’t! They said no because they were afraid of them losing them, stupid people stealing them or the devices getting broken.

Some believe that if they let other people use them they might play with them roughly or how you don’t want them played with. Like on Minecraft  you have to tap quite  hard and swipe a lot. I’m sure that IPOD’s would get lost quite quickly too because they are small and you usually take them everywhere.

Finally devices cost heaps of money. And lots of children lose things at school e.g: hat’s, jerseys, other clothes, drink bottles and much much more. So losing an electric device is going to cost a lot more like. Some kids may also just think it’s cool to have a device at school.

Therefor, BYOD should not be at school because it will cost parents heaps of money, they may lose them, people might play with them inappropriately and they can get stolen. I hope you come to the right decision to not have BYOD  at school.

THANKYOU

Kind regards

Briliant Bridge valley

I tried orienteering for the first time because last time was with Grace because she broke her leg. My highlight was Kayaking and water sliding. I found Burma trail interesting because you have to hold a rope and walk while blind folded.
