Asterix

Have you heard of a comic book person called Asterix? His books are very old but are still very cool. It's about a small little fellow that lived in the ancient times and lived in a village and they called themselves the Gauls. They have a very brainy person in there village that knows secrets. His name is Getafix he makes magic potion to make his village invincible where they have super speed and super strength. Asterix has a freind who's name is Obelix he also is one of the main characters in these adventures he is addicted to wild boar(Male Pig). When he was only a little baby he fell into the magic potion. It had a permenent affect on him wich made him
invicible for the rest of his life(Which means that he doesn't have to take the magic potion) But Obelix is not allowed to drink the magic potion anyway because one time in one of the stories of Asterix he drank a whole cauldron of magic potion then he turned into STONE!!! But if you want to know what happens next then read the book. It is called ASTERIX AND OBELIX ALL AT SEA!!

We are the CHAMPIONS of the WORLD!!

Can you believe that we just won the WORLD cup title (Trophy) We have made history. It is the first time that the MIGHTY Kiwis won against Australia in a world cup (Kangaroos) and it is the first time that the kiwis have won ever in the history of World Cup Rugby League. In fact the Rugby League world cup began in 1954 but the Rugby Union World Cup only began in 1987 (When The All Blacks Won!!) Sometimes in the game I just couldn’t describe how the Kiwis played through out the game. It was a very good competitive first half because it was a very tight score. My most favourite try was when Billy Slater was about to be pushed out to the out line by the BEAST (Manu Vatuvei) and Billy Slater chucked the ball in just in time before he went out and chucked it right in to the hands of the one and only Benji Marshall who ran to the score line with a smile on his face. Every one was raising their hands and screaming with joy with their hands in the air. I think that Nathan Cayless made the most metres for the Kiwis. The score was 34-20 what a good score for the Kiwis to win against Australia in the world cup final. The prize giving at the end was cool because I liked it when the Kiwis walked on the stage to get their medals. THE MIGHTY KIWIS HAVE ACHIEVED THE IMPOSSIBLE!!!!!!!

Movie Competition PES

At Point England School we are having a movie competition. We are all very excited about making our film. The hardest thing about it is that you have to do it by yourself with a group of people in your class. So we are looking for some good ideas. We already have some really good ideas in our hands. Maybe I could show you the movie that we will make after the festival is finished. 

We also went to another movie festival at Tamaki College. We saw movies from schools from our local area. If you would like to see these movies then go to www.tamaki.net.nz then click on Film Festival 08 and watch some very cool and hilarious movies. I hope you enjoy them!! Film Festival 08 was AWESOME!!!!

The Little General RETURNS!!

The little General Stacey Jones is coming back to the Warriors. Do you reckon he is going to get us back in shape or do you think that he is too old? We had a really good season this year. There were many ups and downs but we had one of the best seasons ever in the history of the Warriors but I think that we could do better with him next season. GO THE MIGHTY WARRIORS!!!! (Next Year) Thanks to www.leaguehq.com.au for this picture!!!

Who Is better??

Who do think is the most skilled player out of Ali Lauitiiti or Sonny Bill Williams?? Well if you want to vote then type a comment on my post. Voting ends next week. I think I would go for Lauitiiti but you can vote for your own person. And by the way GO THE KIWIS!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks to www.rugbyleaguedigest.com.au/img.skysports.com/.../Ali-Lauitiiti_987689.jpgimages/sonny-bil... for the picture of Sonny Bill and Ali Lautiti!!

Kiwis Through To The Final Can They Do It Once Again??

Thanks to www.odt.co.nz for these pictures!!

Did you see the Kiwis take on England. The Kiwis won!! I was kind of shocked with the Kiwis. The Kiwis didn't know what to do with the ball when they got it and sometimes had shocking defence. They didn't do the set plays! If they play like that against the Aussies then we might as well not turn up because they would get caned. Fiji made it to the semifinals and Kiwis won against the fierce England team 32-22. Even though the Kiwis won against England I was kind of disappointed with the New Zealand team. They dropped the ball too many times. Next week I hope the Kiwis switch on and play like Pro's (Even though they Are Pro's!!) SO GO THE MIGHTY KIWIS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Summer Is Coming......

Thanks to www.suntrek.org/.../inside thesun.com for this picture
The scorching hot sun nearly burned me as if I was a sausage sizzling on the barbie. Summer is coming soon.... In summer you would hear children jump around with joy. You could feel the sun gleaming on your cheese grilled back!! The tree's leaves were turning into a glowing green. The breeze would be flowing through the air like a power hang glider. Your eyes would turn to the sun and turn beet red with water pounding down your head to keep you hydrated. Your eyes would scream,suffer and explode like a bomb land on the ground in WORLD WAR II . The plants would be dying as if a lazer gun was fired at the plant and the lazer melted the roots and the plant would die. When I felt the back of my neck it felt like I put my hand in an oven that was turned up to 100 degrees. YIKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKESSSSSS man that was STEAMING HOT. Make sure you have plenty of water through the summer. BECAUSE SUMMER'S COMING!!!!!!!

Joshua Klein

Have you heard of Joshua Klein? He is a man who trains crows to do good things in our environment. He invented a vending machine for crows!! Isn't that amazing that he invented it just for crows. He is an amateur man (Amateur means he is not paid for his research for crows) He got the idea at a party and his friend said that there were all these crows in his backyard and said he should just eradicate them (which means to get rid them) but Joshua said "no" we should train them to do good things. His friend said that was impossible. That was when he got interested in crows. Crows are very brainy because they use cars to help them with lunch. The Crows found a nut and waited on the power line in the middle of the road then they dropped their nut on the road and then car ran over the nut and it cracked open. Then they would fly down onto the ground and would wait for the traffic to stop when someone pressed the traffic button. Then the crow would walk on the path through the traffic that was stopped at the lights.

Josh made some pretty good things that would save crows from getting killed for being a pest. He was so good at researching Crows that he got to be on a show that was called TED TALKS it is a show for people who do really cool things. We even got to talk with him in a VIDEO CONFERENCE!!!!! We were honoured to speak with him because he was very funny. We gave him a few good ideas for the research to get better. JOSHUA KLEIN IS AWESOME!!!!

School Athletics 2008

Athletics was AWESOME because in my first event [Shot Put] I came SECOND!!! And in the soft ball throw I came...SECOND AGAIN which is a very big achievement for me not just to get a good place in sprinting (my BEST event in athletics!) I also came FIRST in the 10 year old boys 75 metre sprint and tomorrow we will be having the 100 metre. We stopped sprinting because people were starting to get sick because people were eating just before their last rotation. I am going through to the inter-zone athletics for three events. Usually I’m only in the running races. Takitimu are mostly known as the Athletics CHAMPIONS because we usually win. But so far it’s looking Matatua are cleaning up right now I hope that we can come back by winning the relay and the 400 metre sprint.I have great news!!!! In the four hundred metere sprint guess what I came first!!!!! GO TAKITIMU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT HAPPENED TO SAMOA??????

Thanks to PHOTO SPORT.CO.NZ FOR THESE PICTURES!!!!! AND TO www.toasamoa.com/images/samoan_coat_of_arms.jpg FOR THESE PICTURERS
MAN that was an absolute SHOCKER!!! We should have got four more trys[Because of the reff we lost!!!] But the worst person for the Samoan team would have to be Francis Meli. It was like he was scared of the ball and he droped the ball as if it had lots of butter on it!! Man and why did we have to lose???? If Tonga won against Ireland and Samoa won against Tonga then we could have won against Ireland!! Man we the Samoans will have to wait another four whole years to get another chance of getting a good place I reckon we would be better then the Kiwis [New Zealanders] Oh Well aleast we won against Tonga witch was a good game!! We gave it our all and done well. TOA SAMOA ARE THE BOMB!!!!!!

Samoa VS Ireland

Are you getting ready for the match tonight? It's going to be totally awesome!! It is going to be tonight at 8 o'clock in the evening. If Samoa win this match they will go on to verse the winner of Scotland and Fiji. If Scotland want to take on Samoa then they will have to beat Fiji by at least 50 POINTS so Scotland will have to bring there A Game on the day. But I reckon Samoa have a good team and will just thrash them by at least 20 points or thirty points. This is going to be an absolute thrilling match. GO TOA SAMOA!!!!!!!!

Athletics IS ON!!

Point England are having their annual 2008 Point England athletics. There is going to be high jump, there's going to be discus, there's going to be sprinting and there's going to be more cool things to do. I'm looking foward to high jump and sprinting and also discus!! IT's GOING TO BE AWESOME. GO TAKITIMU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Samoa Through To The Second round!!

Thanks to www.amnrl.com/gragphx/r...g.webbloc for these pictures!!

Man what an awesome match that was. Some called the Samoa VS Tonga game the battle of the Pacific. It was one heck of a match! My favourite try was when George Carmont the number 4 scored a try! It was awesome. I have 2 uncles in that team, Nigel Vagana and David Solomona and that is one thing to be proud of!! I liked David Solomona's offload to Lagi Setu it was pretty AWESOME!! I especially liked Nigel Vagana's intercept when the Tongan dummy half {Tevita Leo Latu} passed the ball across the field and and Nigel caught the ball and ran as fast as he could. In fact he is the best intercepter I know that is in the NRL. He's still got it (Even though he is not that fast any more!!) Mat Utai's try was awesome too! He just kept his leg in the field to get a try for Samoa. Samoa are now going to battle Ireland to make it into the Quarter Finals. GO TOA SAMOA CHOOOOOOO
