Today we had a practice run for our mama mia pizzas. We used a pita bread for the base and I used tomato pizza sauce to make the cheese stick on to the pizza. I am dairy free so I couldn't have cheese on my pizza so I had olives, crushed pineapple, onion, parsley and basil! 🍕🍕
Next time I will bring my own ingredients

How to Care for a Tame Bird -By Lily
- You will need to get a cage for the bird
- At the bottom of the cage you will need to put down old newspaper sheets so it covers all of the floor. You will need to change the newspaper everyday.
- If you have not already got the bird you will need to buy one. Parrots, cockatiels and cockatoos, and parakeets tend to be some of the most popular types of birds owned as pets. When you take the bird home you will need a hard-sided carrier and a towel, to keep the bird calm on the way home.
- Most birds will eat fruits, seed, vegetables and nuts. You will need to get 2 bowls (1 for food and 1 for water) You will have to clean the bowls daily and give them fresh food once a day.
- Birds cannot eat avocado and chocolate because both of these foods have a chemical that can be toxic for the bird, also only give the bird water to drink.
- Feed the bird regularly at about the same time each day. This could be when you eat, or maybe earlier. However, choose a time and try to stick to it, so that the bird knows when to expect its food. If you want to stick to the natural feeding time of birds, feed half an hour after sunrise and just before sunset.During the day, small fruit and vegetable snacks can be left in the cage
- To keep your bird Interested you will need to buy some toys and swap the toys around each day. You can also hide food in the toys so the bird can find them, birds love seeds just like people love lollies.
- Make sure your bird gets used to being handled so hold it and pet it as much as you can, this will make you and your bird have a closer bond and will greet you with chirps, whistles and other bird noises.
- Your bird will need lots of exercise you should let it out of the cage your bird should be exercised at least twice a day, because birds do not like being stuck in cages all day birds can suffer being trapped in cages for along time.
- Keep the cage properly cleaned because if you don’t it can cause your bird to become sick.-Change the bedding regularly.-Remove droppings from perches/toys.`-Remove uneaten food that has been sitting around on the base of the cage.-If your bird is molting (this is common with parrots, for example), there will be a need to vacuum up the molted feathers daily11. Some birds such as parrots will need to get their feathers and toenails clipped. when your bird needs to have a feather cut do not attempt to try and do it yourself, go to the vet and the vet will do it for you because feather cuts are aimed at restricting flight not preventing flight.12. Put effort into training your bird. In this way, you can teach it to come out of its cage and be sensible. This will give it much more freedom to enjoy flying around than remaining cooped up inside of its cage all day long. Training is a form of interaction and it plays a vital role in curbing abnormal behaviors.

Friendship
Kia Ora
Ko Paraekaretu tōku maunga
Ko Rangitikei tōku awa
Ko ngati apa tōku iwi
Ko Lily toku ingoa
Tena koutou, tena koutou, tena koutou, katoa.
Intro
Today, I am going to talk about one of the most important things in the world. Does anyone want to guess? Well the awnser is friendship. In the speech I am going to talk about the benefits of having a friend, the effects of not having a friend and how to be a friend.
Paragraph 1
I think that having a friend is one of the most important things in life, not just for your wellbeing but your health because friends play a huge role in promoting your, Mental health and physical health. Adults with strong social support by friends have a reduced risk of many significant health problems, including depression, high blood pressure and being overweight. Studies have even found that older adults with good friends are likely to live longer than their peers with fewer connections.
Some other positives about having friendships are that friends increase your confidence and self worth, help you cope when times are hard and increase your sense of belonging and purpose. This all helps a person to maintain a positive attitude which is great for your mental health.
Who are you with all the time? Yourself. It is really important to like yourself so you can be an awesome friend to other people. Liking yourself is really impmortant. did you know that you can be your own best friend? Sounds weird? Think about how important for your confidence and your mental health health.
Paragraph 2
Pets can be one of the best friends anyone can have, especially if you live alone or is lonely, because those feelings of loneliness can lead to stress, anxiety, medical complications and even early death? A new study proves that pets can cheer up lonely seniors and enhance quality of life.
Paragraph 3
Some of the effects of having no friends can be quite deadly and it can be as bad as smoking. Having no friends can lead to depression, so what is depression? Depression is a common and serious medical illness that negatively affects how you feel, the way you think and how you act. In the year of 2000 20% of people diagnosed with depression committed suicide which is very bad, so to save your self you need to make a friend. So here’s how to make friends and keep them. You can only find good friends if you be yourself or otherwise you won’t find the right person. Tell them that they are important- it's human nature. All of us want to know that we are needed, that we have a purpose and that we have a use. Because a lot of people believe that if they disappear nobody will notice .
So here are some more tips about being a good friend
Listen to what your friends are saying
Have lots of fun together
Give back things you have used or borrowed from each other
Try to understand people by thinking about things from their point of view
Dont argue and get upset if your friend doesn’t agree with you about something, its ok, they are allowed their opinion too.
Things you should try not to do:
Don’t brag about what you’ve got or done
No put downs, you wouldn’t like it if someone did this to you
Don’t take over, let others tell their own jokes and news
In conclusion - it is very important for your health to have friends and to be a good friend in return. Being lonely has physical effects on your body, and on can make you stressed and unhappy. An animal companion can also be a friend, particularly for an older person who lives on their own, or anyone who feels a little lonely. I hope you have enjoyed my speech and taken some advice to take on to be a better friend your self.
Thank You

In the holidays I had a sleepover with my besties Caitlin and Olivia but not Alicia because she was in England for the holidays. They live in Lower Hutt and they go to Hutt Intermediate.

blog post
This is the last week at school and I am leaving 2 days early because we are going to Lower Hutt in Wellington to pick up a painting which is in storage and I am also going to go to my dads work because he works in Wellington and comes back home Friday to Tuesday and works at home. I also want to see some of my friends because I used to live in Lower Hutt. At school, we are doing a science fair and for my one, I am doing Do Pets Have Paw Preferences? I am going to test this by putting a treat under the couch and see which paw they use to get it out, play with them and see which paw they use the most,
when they are walking their dominate paw should be the paw in front and put peanut butter on their nose and see which paw they use to get it off with. I am hoping to test it with my cats, Astro and Tilly, my friend, Jordy's dog called Buddy and my other friend Molly's dog called Maggie and the live down my street.

what I am doing this week
This week I wrote about one of my cats called Tilly because we just got her on Saturday, she is very cute and is only 7 months!!!!!!!! She is a ginger tabby and has amber eyes. She went to the SPCA because she was abandoned at birth like many other kittens because people don't get their cats spayed or neutered and then they have loads of kittens every year and people don't want to buy them so they have no choice but to dump them and leave them there to die but not all kittens get found by animal shelters and just end up dying, fortunately Tilly got found and now she lives at my house 🐱 . I learnt about pronouns.

animal translator
Animal Translator
Would you like to talk to any animal in the world? Or even see what it's thinking? Because I can tell you how this will be made possible. The Animal Translator!
This machine will enable you to understand animals more and will help you and them have better communication. I choose the name animal translator because a translator is a person or a machine that translates one language to another and that is what my machine will do!
This amazing machine is made out of metal and special headphones made for the animals ears, and under a glass window there will be a tablet which will be specially coded to translate your thoughts and the animals, so you can understand each other. There will also be a keyboard which you can type the species of the animal so the computer knows what to translate.
This machine will be useful if your pet or zoo animals doesn't like its food, or is feeling sad or sick and it can tell you. It might also encourage people to get a pet so there will be less kittens or puppies abandoned or put down because no one wants to buy them. When we talked to our cat tester Astro, She kept saying how annoyed she was when she got kicked out of the house when there was no one at home and how she wanted temptations for every meal instead of cat biscuits, but she loves how many sunny spots there are around the house.
This machine will change the relationship between animals and people (because lots of people don’t have my cat whispering talent) and more people will want to have pets.

house lifter
HOUSE LIFTER!!!
Have you ever been in a flood? Because water can sweep through your house and could damage any non-water resistant things in your house, it could come in with such a force that it could make light waited objects topple to the ground and smash into millions of tiny pieces or it could destroy your power, make mould grow on the walls and much more. That’s why the one and only House Lifter is here!
This invention will help you and your family survive with your house perfectly fine, how? Well, I will tell you how this works. Firstly you have to ring 0800896345 and order the invention, it will probably come in a couple of days. Secondly, The the people who put the house lifter in your house come. You will see huge titanium polls and meters and meters of different coloured wires. Now you have to wait for a flood but when one does come all you have to do is make sure all the windows and doors are shut and everyone's inside. When you're ready to go up just press the purple button and you will rise into the sky.
I think people who live by the beach or in places where usually gets flooded will use this invention and find this machine very useful.
