Term 3 Review

This term has gone by fast and it has been the only term this year with a full 10 weeks in it. There has been a lot of highlights such as tech, Youthtown, Maui puppet plays, writing with Mr nelson, and especially the skating and curling trip with the year 7 and 8’s. At tech, I was in Digi tech. I made a keyring for Breana and we also made songs. We had four sessions of Youthtown this term and my favorite game with them was Tchukball (pronounced Chuckball). With the Maui puppet plays, Mrs. Campbell split us up into groups of 5 or 6. We choose our parts and read off a script and performed a play. We made puppets out of paper and string and we also had to draw/colour scenes. Mr. Nelson taught us on Thursday and Friday last week and we did a lot of writing. Two main pieces of writing were; Dear Librarian and Teacher Gone missing. With the Dear Librarian writing, we have to give an excuse to the librarian why we shouldn’t pay $327.95 for a long-overdue book. The teacher has gone missing writing we had to write where, why, when, and how our teacher went missing. A couple of Fridays ago years 7 and 8 went to Dunedin for a skating and curling trip. We had pizza for lunch and had an amazing time even though some people got hurt.

Who Is My Hero??

My heroes are my friends such as Neve, Storm, Bella, and Brooke. They are my heroes because they are really good friends. They all have different personalities which makes them special in all different ways. Neve is energetic. She always participates in class games and is a good sport. Storm is confident. She isn’t afraid to give a speech in front of 200 people and she is always kind. Bella is enthusiastic. She always has a good attitude. Brooke is kind. She doesn’t say mean things to anyone and she is very truthful. That is why they are my heroes.

Year 7/8 Trip

On Friday the 4th of September the year 7 and 8’s went to Dunedin ice staking and curling rink. We went to the ice skating and curling rink because the snow in Tekapo wasn’t very good so we had to cancel the ski trip. Instead, we went to the ice skating and curling rink. First, we went curling. Curling is pretty much like bowls except instead of the jack (white ball) there is a target. I was in a team with Brooke, James, and Markus. I was playing against Mr. Turner, Mrs. Campbell, Will, and Flynn. When we had played about 6 rounds we had dominos for lunch. For the last couple of hours, we when ice skating. At the start, we all weren’t very good but after a while, we all ended up well away from the wall.
