History Never Repeats: True or False??

Posted by Emily on 20th August 2007

This week the 07 allstars have been investigating different periods in history like The ancient civilizations, the medieval era and the modern era.  We have to chose 3 countries to research the different time periods( the time periods are in  bold).

The countries I am doing are Ancient China, Medieval Spain and Modern Era France. Here are some interesting facts about each civilization:

Ancient China-  

  • The Chinese invented paper, gunpowder, matches, the compass, the seismograph and the umbrella
  • Ancient China didn’t have banks
  • The Great Wall of China was built to keep the Mongols and Turkic Tribes out of China.

Medieval Spain

  • Medieval Spain was a battlefield where Christians tried to regain control from the Moors
  •  The Moors invaded Spain before the 8th Century

Modern Era France

  • Jacques Chirac became Prime Minister of France in 1986

Athlectics Carnival

Posted by Emily on 17th August 2007

On Wednesday the 15th years 3-6 attended the Athletics Carnival at Campbell oval. We are separated into different house to make it more of a competition and to celebrate your victory with your house members, the houses are Bradman-blue, Freeman-yellow, Fraser-green and Newcombe-red.  My house is Bradman.

There are various races to compete in like the 100m, 200m or 800m. I competed in all 3 and came 3rd in the 100m and 200m. In the 800m I came last with Nancy. There is also  relays - Snr girls and boys, Jnr girls and boys, Captain ball- Snr girls & boys, Jnr girls & boys, Tunnel ball and tug-of-war but this yr we didn’t get to do tug-of-war.       :(
In relays all of Bradmans relay teams came last apart from 1 and it was………………………. THE SENIOR GIRLS!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was in the Senior girls relay team with Gloria, Marcella and Kimberly. The Athletics carnival was a blast ! But there is only 1 winner and it was………………. FRASER! Fraser was happy that they won most people were okay with it because Fraser was a new champion. It was a fun day full of competitiveness, hard work and enthusiasum.

My Small World

Posted by Emily on 1st August 2007

07  Allstars have made their own small worlds in the holidays. We had to make a small based on

  • Fairy Tales
  • Fantasy worlds
  • History
  • Under water
  • Anime
  • Fact

And many more.

My Small world is a small fantasy world like Samorost but with ideas of my own. My small world is set in space, a little fairy Stella, her sister Bella who is NOT a fairy and her dog Flipps live in this planet deep underground. The planets creatures and plants are very mysterious like the evil vampire trees, bat-bats and ghostly spirit creatures who wonder around my world.
