Solar Q's

Can Grass, or any other plants grow on the Moon??

No you can not grow any form plant or tree on the moon its simply because of the amostphere up on the moon also because there is hardly any gravity up in space and on the Moon.

How close do you have to be the Sun, before you burn up?

Approximately the Sun is 149 668 992 Kilometres (95 million miles) away from Earth, and if you go within that you will eventually burn and die. This man from Holland named Bill Nannes he flew to the Sun and burned and died within 3 seconds.

Day N Night

We have been learning about 'Outta this world.' And this is my presentation about how day and night process. I hope you enjoy what I have found out in this past week.

The Solar System has 100 Worlds

Once ignited, The Suns powerful Solar winds begin to surge and blow creating a ‘Great Storm’.
These powerful winds known as the Solar winds are made up of atomic particals being blown outward from the ravishing hot Sun, slowly being pushed out just leaving the remaning of the dust and gas out in our Solar System.

With no more gas and dust to help grow the planets, comets, moons, minor planets and astroids. You may have seen it or not but the four inner planets closest to The Sun are much smaller compared to the four outta planets that’s because the four inner planets are much closer to The Sun, they are located where the Solar winds are stronger.

How Did The Solar System Form???

This important question that scientists get thrown alot is ‘how was the Solar System formed?. After all, The creation of our Solar System happend billions of years ago before humans walked the Earth. Our evolution is closely tied to the evolution of our Solar System. Thus, without the knowledge from where the Solar System came from it’s hard to understand how mankind came to be.

Scientists believed that our Solar System all started with just dust and a whole lot of gas. Sicentists beleive that that this dust and gas started collapsing from under the cloud and thats how the Solar System started to form, the Solar System also started to collapse because of the weight of its own gravity. The matter contained could begin a giant moving circle in our Solar System, just like a water going down the drain.

At the center of that cloud spinning around and around like water goes down the drains, while the cloud spins round and round a star was formed and as it grew larger and larger as it contained more dust and gas the weight of it grew to large and it started collapsing under its own gravity.

What Is The Solar System???

Our Solar System is made up of heaps of planets that orbit our very hot Sun that give us sunburn when we don’t put sun screen on, but in addition our Solar system is made up of consists of moons, comets, asteroids, minor planets and heaps of dust and gas.

Everything in our Solar System revolves around our Sun, these things that revolve around are called Solar System orbits. Our hot Sun contains 98% of the material in our Solar System. In space they say the larger the object the harder it is for the objects to get away from the powerful Sun, that’s because of all the gravity that the Sun has.

Gravity attracts all the moving objects going past, the Sun when going near the Sun moves like a magnetic force. So the result of any planet getting away is nothing that’s because the gravity of the Sun pulls all the planets inward and half - way between all the planets get trapped.

My Dream Holiday 'Outta This World'

“Brinngg” screamed the alarm. I tried to ignore it. I wanted to stay in my dream . My dream outta this world.


‘’ARRGGGHHHHH where am I.........’’ I groaned to my self well there was no one there, I looked around wondering where I was then I looked and saw nothing just red was around me and it was extremely hot I was sweating like a pig. I was walking around and I stepped on a rock and the ground under me dissappered I tried to grab the edge but it was just so far away I screamed “AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, HELP ME I DON’T WANT TO DIE.”

I started seeing a light I knew it was the ground I shut my eyes and hoped for the best I opened my eyes and I was hovering I looked up with thousands and thousands of little tiny creatures around me, I asked ‘’where am I?’’ to the little creatures they said “you are in the core of Saturn is’nt it cold in this part human,” said the leader of the little creatures “NO it’s not cold its hot and you little things are wearing jackets and snow hats,” I said to the little creature in a confuised voice, the little creatures replied “It is winter now, and what is your name?” I replied “Sione and what are you,” I said to the little creatures and they replied “We are the aliens of Saturn.”

After hours of questions, they finally put me down after me hovering for a couple of hours in the air then the leader of the aliens introduced them self to me and I introduced myself to him then he took me for a tour then while I was looking through my bag I found in my bag a camra with only one bar of life left in my camra with that last bit of juice in my camra I took a photo of me and my new friends.

And after a day at looking at cool alien stuff it was time to head back home planet earth 1 billion kilometers away from here I said my goodbyes with a tear in my eyes and said to them “Make sure you come and invade earth but make sure you get me, ok” and they all laughed and Paul said “of course Sione we will come,” he said with a big smile.

Our 'Outta this world' Mnemonic

This is our Mnemonic about what we have been studying over the first couple of days we've been at school. 'Outta This World' that's the theme we are learning about for our last term here at P.t. England, the team of Jordan, Sione and Cruz have been finding out information about how the process of day and night work.

My Gold Cost Titans Review

My Gold Coast Titans Review

Regular Season:
Wins: 6
Losses: 18
Position: 16th
Home Wins: 3 wins, 9 losses (16th)
Away Wins: 3 wins, 9 losses
Longest winning streak: 1
Longest losing streak: 6 (Rounds 15 - 21)
Players most used: 33 (equal most)
Tries Scored: (After Round 26):65 (fewest equal).
Tries Conceded:(After Round 26):109 (equal most)


Since the past four season the Gold Coast Titans have been making Finals week but this season it was a massive fall from grace battling for the wrost thing in NRL the wooden spoon in round 26 they would battle it out against the side that fell from grace last season as well the Parramata Eels, but sadley the Titans would crack at the last minute and lose and get that kitchen hardware.

Next season:
With the likes of Jamal Idris, Beau Champion and two powerful front - rower Luke Dougals and the strong Nate Myles all coming to the Titans next year.

Next season there will be heaps of departures like high - flyer's Esi Tonga and Luke Capewell, even though the Titans have had only been a NRL club for only a short amount of time they have been already three legends for the great club and all three of those legends are going there separate ways like Nathan Friend is off to New Zealand to join the New Zealand Warriors and Anthony Laffranci going to Super League to join St. Helen's and who could forget this games great servant Preston Campbell is hanging up his boots for good.

Where they struggled this season:
Across the park spreading out and using the hole width of the field and also struggled with preventing try’s.

Conclusion:
Well I hope to see the Titans in the Grand Finals next season with arrivals coming in from the Bulldogs and the Roosters and more.

Cross Country 2011

As I was huffing and puffing running down the rocky and bumpy track which was new to us year 7 and 8 who had never run this course before. As we come to the first kilo-meter finished I felt like this was the Cross Country that would never end it was so tiring.

Me and my friend Junior had reached half way and our running T - shirts were drenched with sweat we were running up and down stairs round and round but it seemed like it was never gonna end ‘’come on Sione you can do it nearly there,’’ as Junior was encouraging me I picked up the inspiration and used it and carried on running I said to myself ‘’YES I CAN DO IT.”

We got out of the bush area and entered the reserve and the teacher standing at the corner said ‘’one more lap around the reserve then sprint to that finish line,’’ said Mr. Umu, I just looked at Junior and I bet we were thinking the same thing lets finish this together.

We ran the hole reserve and finished me and Junior were so proud of each other and we hope the collage cross country would be more exciting than this years.

French Conversation

We’ve had so much France learning and researching about the country of FRANCE.

‘’Bonjuor Madam, I have just arrived from the USA I am looking to see what the tourists must - sees are?” I asked the kind Madam

‘’Bonjour Monsieur, our must - see sights are Paris. And, of course, you must try our wine that we have been producing since 6th century BC’’ Replied the Madam.

‘’WOW, really what is France’s most favourite dish?’’ I asked with so much excitement.

‘’Well Sione our most popular dish in our beautiful country France is Escougot it’s a big hit’’ replied the kind Madam.

‘’Thanks to you I know what to see in this country of romance France. What is the Eiffel tower like, is it really how people describe it?’’ I asked in so much enthusiasm

“Why yes Sione the eiffle tower is the most romantic sight see in this part of France which is Paris,’’ said the kind Madam.

‘’So, as you know, there is the Rugby World Cup this year and France will be attending. Do you know any key players for this French Europeon team?” I asked the kind Madam.

“Well their are so many key players for the French team but I’ll have to say Dimitri Yachvili,’’ said the kind Madam.

‘’Yep I’ve heard of that guy he’s good, yes?’’ I asked the Madam

‘’Yes, he is very good he made his first grade debut against Canada on November 22, 2002.
Yeah, he is very good and France is very lucky to have that kind of talent,’’ replied the Madam.

‘’WOW, he must be respected heaps, by the French people, what position does this respected man play?’’ I asked.

‘’Why yes, I think he plays scrum half the last time I heard. I knew him when he was just a little toddler he was very naughty,’’ the Madam said very kind to me.

“What’s a French celebration that French people celebrate all the time?’’I asked.

“There’s so many celebrations like, Jours Feri’res it’s a annual event which was first instituted in 1582. Bastille day was also Incorporated in 1789 and so many more and there all in the month of May,’’ advised the kind madam

‘’Wow, it sounds like your month of May is jammed packed full of holidays,’’I replied.

‘’Yes, May is definitely my favorite month of the year, repiled the madam.

‘’WOW, thank you for all this wonderful information about your country now thanks to you I know what to see in this awesome country FRANCE,’’ I told the kind madam.

‘’Your most certainly welcome my dear friend have fun enjoying our open air and I hope you actually get to see Paris and the Eiffel Tower,’’ repiled the kind madam.

‘’Thank you I hope to see you again in New Zealnad or even around here in this country,’’ as I said to her goodbye.

Broncos Fairy tale Victory

As the Brisbane Broncos come off a thrilling victory over last years champions the St. George Dragons there hopes and dreams to send Locky out with a bang. As we all saw in the when fullback Alex Glenn flew through the air to claim the ball his foot smacked right into the cheek of the inspirational skipper Darren Lockyer which resulted in him inserting 3 metal plates in his cheek but returning second - rower Sam Thaiday says ''we won't need Locky if he is'nt cleared to play that just means our young guns will just have to step up to the plate such rookies as Corey Norman and Ben Hunt and more.

Lockyer says ''I will be fine come the Preliminary's and I'll make sure us Brisbane Broncos get a spot in that Grand Finals''.

We know it will be a tough game and 1 team will have to come out a winner I give

best of luck to both teams this Friday at the SFS Stadium at 7:45 pm (local time).

MANU SAMOA

SAMOA (Pool D)

Best World Cup Performance:

Made the world cup Quarter - Finalist in 1991 and 1995.

SAMOAN PEDIGREE:

Samoa were not even invited to play in this years World Cup.

Samoa have featured in since. In 1991 they made the biggest upset in Rugby World Cup history 13-16 and they qualified and made it to the Quarter - Finals. Repeated it in the next two World Cups but had a rough time winning games as they always found themselves in the same pool as England and South Africa in the last two World Cups.

STAR PLAYER:

Alesana Tuilagi:

At a starting weight of 118kg has a build of foward but has the speed of a fullback this Samoan wrecking - ball is a forced to be reckoned with on the field, scoring 17 tries in 27 games and took his team the Tigers to the Premiership Final this season. Since joining the Samoan team in 2002 and has gone on to play 21 tests and nine tries and countinuing.

No More Mr. Nice Guys

West Tigers Big man Gareth Ellis says '' The Tigers must get over the razzle dazzle business and start getting ruthless and hungry since the finals are so close''. The big second - rower since joining the Tigers, he has also been a key figure in the Tigers nine - game winning streak and he has caught heaps of eyes in the league world. Ellis knows that their attacking game can get them so far in these finals situations.

He knows aggression is the best way to guarantee their finals spot, since 05 the Tigers have been bigger, better, faster and stronger than before but after their last years loss to their feared opponents St. George Dragons, Ellis says '' lose the nice guy image, being fancy will probably win us all the fans in the world but wont win us that title that the Tigers have been hungry for since 2005 .

This weeks opponets are fresh off a loss to the on form Brisbane Broncos the New Zealand Warriors but if the Tigers use the Warriors loss to their advantage the Tigers could actually win this match - up.

This time last year the Tigers were facing off against the Sydney Roosters to determind who carrys on but will year be the year of the WEST TIGER??????.

A Fall From Grace

A clueless despite a fustrated coach with his team the St. George Dragon's after last year being on a high now spiraling down slowly to the bottom. The Dragon's headed to the victorian capital on Sydney on Friday only to be embaressed by last year's grand finalists opponent's.

Coach Wayne Bennet does not know what to do he told the media, Bennet says ''will he and his team defend their spot in the top or will they fall from grace.

After there humiliation by the Sydney Roosters with there 20-12 victory over the St. Geroge Dragons here are some Highlights from the game.

Keep your eye on the ball

We are using the nations of the 2011 Rugby World Cup as our inquiry path.

For this unit we are in one of four teams:

Brumbies, Force, Rebels, Stormers.

My team is Stormers

There will be a number of tasks for us to navigate to achieve our goal of an excellent result in this unit. There are a mixture of individual and team tasks to be completed. The main task that will show our learning in this unit will be a Hyperstudio presentation about one of the countries in the World Cup competition.

I can't wait to see my team New Zealand take it out in front of our home country. Also can't wait to see New Zealand take out everyone in there pool which is pool A.

Furniture Design

Recently our class Room 19 has been designing furniture for our ‘Street’ which is our area for the year 7&8 students. We started by identifying needs in the Street like how us students having to eat our lunch on the hard cold ground and how we had to sit on the ground in our team assembly’s.

After identifying the problems with the street we researched ideas off the Internet and with furniture design and took some of those ideas and transformed it in to our own creation then after we found those ideas we put them together then sketched it on the paper.

When we had the idea and plan on what we were going to do we collaborated on what we could develop our original idea and made it better, so far I am up to my paper mashaying my design.
