MTB - Hanmer camp 

My Favorite part was mountain biking because it was exciting going down the hills and going over the bumps. T1 had to go with the other classes because of the floods that happened in NZ. My favorite MTB track was the snakes and ladders track because it was cool doing all of the zigzags and it was quite hard to see where the track was.

Hanmer Springs camp.

 This year in T1 we went on camp we had to go with the other two totara classes because of the flooding that happened in New Zealand in 2021. Went to hanmer springs that was really fun. We got to go to the hot pools, Mountain Biking, Tree climbing, Orientering and walking up conical hill. My favortite activity was Mountain biking, tree climbing and going down the big hydroslides at the hot pools. They were my favorite parts because they the mountain bike tracks were fun and climbing up the tree that was 25m and i climbed right to the top.v

Descriptive Writing.

 This week we had to write a desricptive piece of writing we had to look at a picture and describe like we were at that spot. Here is my finished piece of writing.

I am lying in a hammock on the beach drinking my tropical drink with a lemon on the side. As I look out at sea I see dolphins jumping around and having fun. I Stand into the soft flaming hot sand. I go for a swim. I still see the dolphins jumping around and I can see all of the fish that are swimming below me. I get out of the water and the sand feels so nice on my feet I lay back down and take a sip of my tropical drink.

Letter

For this activity we had to pretend we were in the war. So we had to write a letter to someone that is in our family so I wrote my letter to my parents.

To Mum and Dad

We are at the Gallipoli Peninsula and we are having trouble getting our troops up the cliff face. There is lots shooting and firing around us, it is incredibly scary. I so wish that I was safe at home. The food is weird and tastes like cold dry biscuits, I can't wait for mums delicious roast pork with crackling. I have made some good friends, they are from Brisbane in Australia.

This was easy because 

This was hard using the word angry

Her lips are shaking 

Her eyes are furious 

Her hands are rolling up into a fist.

Her guts are gurgling so fast

Her heart is beating so fast 

She is so grumpy she wants to kick someone
