Bike track explanation
Bike tracks
Our school owns 14 acers that is heaps of land and we were thinking of something that our school and the community can use, we even wrote a letter to shane jones about it and how we need more money to build and make a bike track.
How we can get a bike track at school?
To get a bike track at our school and for the community we would heaps of money like about $30,000 or mabey even $40,000, we could probably sell heaps of things at market day thats how we mostly get heaps of money. One way we could get a bike track is to make a community and school bike track donating box and mabey some signs.
Where can a bike track go?
So our school has 14 acres and we have a massive hill that would be great for seniors but we what one for our school so we would have to make two bike tracks one big one and one a bit smaller like one around our bottom field and we will still be able to play on the bottom field.
Who would use the bike tracks?
So our school is really amazing to be thinking of a bike track so if we are getting a bike it would be great to let our community have some fun and ride around a little bit so our community would be great to share a bike track with.
How would you use a bike track
Using a bike track is really cool but you dont want to ruin it for other kids and push them off their bikes and make them do a trick then they fall off and brake their arm or leg because you would definitely get banned from going on it because hurting people doesn’t get you far, and another way to use a bike track is to listen to the teachers who are trying to tell you to get off because its class time listen to them and don’t just ride away that would be worst.
Why would you use it?
Riding on a bike track would release stress and angry thoughts, it would get you away from all the screens in school, it is also healthy for your body and helps you be more confidt at school at doing your speech in front of heaps of people.
Conclusion
To sum this all up I think it is really good to have a bike track for our school and community because people love to get out side into the natural nature like and have fun and just relaxe while ride a bike with your friends having races and getting tied, you also get to bring your own bike, having run doing cool tricks and cool things like that.

Bulldog report
Bulldogs
Bulldogs are hard to train, they also have really strong jaws, a bulldog that decides to bite or be aggressive is formidable.
Where bulldogs come from???
Most bulldogs come from the United Kingdom and england.
What bulldogs eat???
Royal canin adult dog food also for puppys,
Royal canin is a High quality protein dog food
Older bulldogs eat about 2 times a day puppies eat around 2/1 cups a day
Enemies and how they protect themselves???
They would probably use there strong teeth and powerful jaws
Would bulldogs be good as pets???
I think they would be good pets if they were just little puppies. They're really cute. My dad used to breed them and we sold all of them except one.
I used to sit in its kennel at night.
Interesting facts about bulldogs
Can bulldogs swim??? Most bulldogs can swim
But not as well, if you're going to let your bulldog in the pool. Maybe thinking of putting him/her in a life jacket swimming is much more difficult than other breeds.
England loves bulldogs because it one of thor national breeds in fact, world war 2 england was betrayed as a tough looking bulldog winston churchill was often called the ‘’british bulldog’’
Despite the nickname Churchill owed 2 poodles.

My speech
Why Books Are Better Than Movies.
Hi, my name is Hani. don't walk away to watch a movie wondering why That's why I'm here. you must know People all over the world understand that books are way better than movies.
Well Like if you watch a movie you have sort of spoiled the book of course, well back to my speech these are my reasons why books are way better than movies.
To begin with, You can damage your eyesight from looking at a small screen or by looking at a screen for ages, Your eyes can get really tired and sore. people who stare at a screen tend to not blink and that can cause the eyes to dry and feel really uncomfortable.
Another reason is because when you get stuck on a word you can learn from it like if it is a history book you can learn from where you are from your great grandparents and even from world war 1 or 2
My next reason is you can have a fun kid mind and use your own imagination for kids and family for example a fairytale book
My fifth reason is you don't have to rent or buy it, you can just borrow it or use a friend's one, if they let you make sure you don't steal it like
(two screens) its $12.99
(four screens) its $15.99
My fourth reason is, that you can find your book at the local library but on an ipad it's heaps of money like on netflix,disney plus and some kids like watching movies and it's expensive for adults
In fact without a book you have no knowledge and when you do have a book you could read about 20 books in a month. People that are speedy readers can like read about 55 books in a week
My next reason is the news. I'd rather read the newspaper than watch a silly tv.
The worst part about movies is that if the movie is in another language you have to read subtitles and that's annoying.
There you go! I have given you many reasons why books are better than movies, I bet you didn’t know that most movies come from books - that’s how movie makers get their ideas.
I hope you like my speech. Remember don't watch a movie.

Faye's Water
Once upon a time there was a girl named Faye. She was 3 and she had 3 brothers that were annoying.
They were left alone in the lounge. The boys were playing a board game but faye asked to play but they said no.
So faye walked away and was in the bathroom playing with her dolls and all she heard was ‘faye!’ her brothers were yelling out to her to get them a drink of water and she said ‘ok’.
And she thought since they did not let her play she would give them pay back so she went over to the toilet and grabbed a big cup full of water after all her brothers had a drink they were wondering what she was doing so they stood up and spied on her to know what she was doing. They saw she was getting it out of the toilet so The boys went to their mum and told on her because they did not want to drink toilet water ever in their life so their mum said ‘faye come here now!!’
faye ran into the kitchen because that's where their mum was. She said ‘coming’
After faye and her mum talked faye ran back into the lounge to say sorry to the boys.
They said sorry for not letting her play and she said sorry for giving them toilet water and the boys let her join in and she gave them proper water with ice and flavour.
