Earthquake

08/07/13

We’re all doing maths then bam  a earthquake  hit us. Up everyone got and got underneath the table. Then the bell went off so we had to go to the courts and sit down. Then they talk to us about what we had to do when a earthquake came. She said roll into a ball or get under a table.  After she said that she said teachers get your children and go back to your classrooms and we did and it was over.



This was amazing, a fantastic true story.

Camp Reflection

Reflection for Camp

My goal for camp was to care for others.

I achieved this because I cared for others  and I did it with my group and others.

Something I was pleased with was team work that was going around the place

and I liked it because when someone else needs help you can help them when you can.

I really enjoyed learning about the rivers we saw and the trees because you can learn all about them when you already don't know about them.

Something I found hard was walking up hill and  sometimes down. Something that made me think was how to get down from here because it was slippery and wet

My top 5 favourite things about camp were:

Favourite Things	Reason Why
1. kayaking	because it was my first time doing it in a single one.
2. caving	because it fun and experiencing other stuff I did not see before.
3. waterfalls	because I have not  seen a big waterfalls.
4.rock hopping	for seeing rocks and hopping on them and I have not done it before then.
5. amazing race	for learning to help your group in different ways.

 This is my camp reflection I did.

Camp Memories

This is my camp memories I made on the computer and it took a long time but I finally did it. If you lift the flap you can see what the people did on camp.

Fishing poster

This is my fishing poster I did in room 15 yesterday and I enjoyed it.

Kayaking

kayaking

I am in the kayak and this is the first time I did it and I learnt how to do it because Anthony helped me do it and it was fun but hard some of the time and I enjoyed it the most. Then I got into a dubbel

kayak with Nakita and it was so awesome and we went fast and the had a rest and I had fun with that. Then we got back to the shore and I waited a while until another person got back  and then someone yelled to mr m does anyone want to go on a single kayak and I said me so mr m said nikitah does  so I got into that one and we only had five minutes to go and then we had to go back to shore  that was very fun.

Masterchef

Masterchef

Brunch then lunch then dinner then dessert. It was challenging and fantastic to make all of the food in our groups even though some people in our group could not have dairy milk. So they made something else and it was nice to respect that. They cooked  it thrmselves and they were proud  as well. I liked master chef.

Caving

Caving

I am in the cave we had to do the commando cave with no torch and we had to crawl in the mud because it was a muddy and wet cave. It was awesome but the wetas in the next cave and they are so big and they stayed still  because they do not like people seeing them and they were scary and brown. The wetas are in the caves on the roofs and sometimes on the side of the caves and the caves are awesome but the time when I got my shoes wet on the last cave and it felt weird and we had a choice go back in the caves or go back to camp and I put my hand up for go back to camp because it was cold .

Kereru

This is the piece of art I did and I have to do it with pastel and it took me along time and I am proud of it.

My kiwi story

This is my kiwi creche story that I did my self and I liked going there.

Kiwi creche moment

When we got to the kiwi creche and went in to the marae and sat down. We had to be quiet so the kiwi does not freak out  and when we be quiet  she took out the kiwi and put it on her finger  and went around and we pat-erd  it. It feels rough and it keeps on making a clicking noise and it means it is angry and tries to scare people. We got to hold a kiwi’s egg and it was heavy and big. It looks light but it is not and it was white .The kiwi’s beak is not a beak it is a bill and it does not like people touching him. It was the first time I saw a kiwi in real life and touch it for real. It was so cute.
