blogging reflection W10 T2

I'm most proud of my speech that I done it was on Anxiety because I felt like not many people understand what anxiety is.

The high lights from the past 2 terms would be my speech and our Hanmer Springs camp. I really enjoyed it. The 1 thing that I really want to accomplish next term is to get more work done.

T2 W6 weekly reflections

Weekly reflections T2 W5 Cross Country

Yesterday we had Cross country, I came fourth and got into West Coast which you have to get top 5 to get into West Coast.  You have to be Year 5 at the youngest to get into West Coast. The Year 7&8's had to run around Rugby Park once then go out a gate on one side and run about half a block up hill, then we went down the staff car park and then went around the field twice again. I felt shattered when I finished but proud of my efforts. I am still unsure if I want to go to West Coast Cross Country as you have to run so much further!

T2 W4 weekly reflections Pink Shirt Day

Pink Shirt Day

Last week on Friday we had a pink shirt day to say that we are a bully free school. We were allowed to wear pink shirts or if we didn't have a pink shirt we could buy some cookies made by Mrs O and some other students. I think it is important to be bully free because bullying makes students not want to come to school and it makes the school look bad. Let's be bully free!

W4 T2 weekly reflections, Hanmer Springs

Hanmer Springs School Camp

Kia Ora. On the 20th to 22nd of May our class and the next class (T1) went on a camp to Hanmer Springs. 

Day: 1

My groups first activity was orienteering we walked down the road from out camp, took a left the went into the bush, we then got into groups of 4 to 5, a Adult and a map.
We then walked down a track with marked locations of where flags will be hanging from the branches  of trees, and we would have to use the map with the marked spots of where the flags are to write down the id codes of them, and the goal was to get as much of the flags you could in 3 hours then go back to where we stared and see who won. I think my group came last. After orienteering we got to go to the hot pools for 3 hours. It was so much fun. I really enjoyed the Super Bowl because it was the first time I had been on it and I got to go on it with my friends.

Day: 2

We went to Hanmer Cemetery and we had to study about some of he people such as: "Find the person who died in a helicopter crash." and we just had to find then and answer them. Then we went on a sculpture walk which was cool because the sculptures were so detailed and there were heaps of huts made too.

We then went mountain biking in the same forest, and we had to follow the Instructor through the track. I didn't really enjoy it because I had no brakes and suspension on my bike.

After that we went Tree climbing which was so fun. You had to get in a harness and tighten it if you were climbing or the person that let them come down, then you had two muscle men who just had to pull really hard, and you had the bucket man who just had to put the rope in the basket so people dont trip and the ropes dont break.

Day: 3 

We walked up Conical hill which was very steep and tiring but worth it when you got to the top, we then ate lunch at the top of the hill. After that we walked back down to the hill and walked to to Candy shop and the was a blast, but we were only allowed to spend $5.

I really liked camp because I haven't been to Hanmer in ages and it was a really good experience.
