Duffy Role Model Assembly

Thursday 10th September 2015

For our Duffy Model Assembly we had a special guest Myron Simpson. He is a cyclist from New Zealand who came second in the Jr world championship in Mexico in 2007 , and was taught to ride a BMX bike when he was three by his father. He also has two older brothers who used to ride BMX bikes also. The first ever time he represented New Zealand was when he was 8. In his spear time when he is not training he likes to read book. He has heaps of spear time so he started up his own company called Myron's Muesli.

Even though he made a career with riding bikes his two older brother did not. But sometimes he races with his brothers for fun. At one point he showed us his bike,helmet,suit and shoes. First he told us that his shoes were special shoes that connected to the bike pedals. He shoes also had special holes on them to make him go faster and he has special covers on his shoes to cover his lasses. Next he showed us his helmet, witch he asked his uncool to paint for him because his uncool was a professional painter.

On his helmet it had a picture of the current flag and on the side it had a little picture of a kiwi on a bike in front of a silver furn with flames at the back of it. He told us that all his stuff were Aero Dynamic designed to make his go faster. His helmet was shaped funny but he told us that when he rides the wind goes right over his head and onto his back. Later he showed us his suit, it was really small but there was a picture of him racing in it so that was when we knew that it could fit him. But he said that if you crashed the suit would ripe easy.

He told us that when he was little he used to get heaps of scratches on his knees,ribs,elbows everywhere. Finally he showed us his bike, he said it's so light that he can lift it up with his pinkie finger. He told us that his bike weighed 7 kilograms and that his fastest speed on his bike was 110 kilometers per hour. In the beginning he told us if we got the question right we would get to try out his stuff.

There were two winners from Room 7, one from Room 9 and one from Room 8. Honey,Danny,Matiaki and Suwaley were the winners ad they were all from the senior block.
Honey was allowed to wear his helmet, Danny was allowed to wear his medal, Matiaki was allowed to try on his shoes and Suwaly was allowed to wear his spandex suit he was allowed to ride the bike, then Myron told Danny to hold the bike while Suwaly gets lifted onto the bike by Myron. After all that all the kids were allowed to ask him some questions about his career or life.

Poems 2015

Monday 31st August 2015

This is a rap from a mum that used vanilla ice lyrics to make her kids do the work.

Alright, stop !!! Collaborate and Listen

The living room’s a mess and so is the kitchen

Something has to be done rightly or you’ll be grounded daily and nightly

Will it ever stop?:

Yo I don’t know

Pick it all up or I’m going to blow

to the extreme

if you don’t quit acting like vandals

I’ll light up you butt

and use your ears as handles.

What I did on Saturday

Tuesday 25th August 2015

On Saturday 22nd August 2015 my school was having a fundraiser to raise money for the year 7 and 8 camp. They were having a car wash but the night before I had stayed up all night so when I woke up the next day I had slept in. It was about 10am and I thought that it was over because I didn't know what time it was I assumed that it was over. My brother went to the car wash but I thought that he would just be playing with all the kids that came that live around there.

So instead of going to the car wash I went and made my self breakfast. Then I sat down and watched some TV. So the rest of the day I just sat down and watch TV. One of the program's was Lab Rats. On this episode Mr.Davenport build's a bionic for all the bionic soldiers and Leo get angrey because he is made a student not a mentor. There are two small bionic soilders could Spin and Bob.

Spin makes Leo look bad so out of anger he punches the wall and a huge cut is made in the wall making water come in a and slowly flooding the island. But luckily Chase's and A new student join their teams together and lifts the island back up.

Marvel Quiz

Child Abuse

I think that Child Abuse is bad because children are not adults and their not as strong they are easy to hurt and when you hit them their bones could break. Also when you hit your kids your kids are seeing you hit them and they will hit their kids back and then their kids will hit theirs and it will keep happening unless someone stops it by talking to their kids not hitting their kids.

You can also take it to far by killing your kids. Because in America two parents killed their three year old daughter Alexander. It was said by the cops that the father used to lock her in the room and make her wear a dog collar.

The mother never used to take the daughter to the doctors because she was always covered with buses and they would call the police or something like that on them. So I think that people who abuse kids are losers who pick on people who are weaker then them even if it's their own kids.
