SCHOOL CAMP!!!!!!!!

Last week on Tuesday night I was sleepless because the year five and six camp, began the next morning.I woke up and I was a little bit anxious because, I was in the swimming team and I didn’t know what I was going to come.I arrived at my classroom and my teacher Miss Garden said that when the bell rings we are going to the hall to see if anyone didn’t bring their Camp bag.

It was time to go to Swimarama and I was in the swimming races, which made me a little bit anxious.I hopped in the water and it was freezing, which gave me a bit of butterfly's.My favourite activity there was playing American football in the water when it was free swimming.

Now it was time to see what tent we were going to sleep in, which was very exciting. I got to my tent and I jumped straight to the side because, that is were it is nice and cool.Waata had already hopped into his sleeping bag and Melvin and I were still waiting for him to get out, so we could set up.

Finally it was time to do my favourite activity Skate-land.As soon as we got there I put my skates on and hopped straight into the skating rink.At Skate-land my favourite activity was the limbo because not very many people played, which made it good because I had more of a chance of coming 1st,2nd or 3rd.

Yay!!!!!!!it was time to do squash, another one of my favourites.We got there and Mr Marks and Mr Barks had a game, to show us what to do.Now it was time to go and play for ourselves, I was with Waata,Lorenzo and Willie.I was first with Willie and can u guess who won ME!!!!!!.

Oh no, it was time to do orienteering the worst thing of all the activity's.I was with Hosannah, he was the compass holder and I was the writer, the worst thing out of both of them.Mr Jacobsen had finally blew the horn, so we all had to run back to the Tusitala room.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it was time for the camp concert, the main thing of camp.We got up onto the stage and I felt butterfly’s flapping around in my stomach.We did our performance, and then it was time to hope off the stage,I felt relieved

After everyone had done there performance it was time to go back to our tent.It was sleep time and I couldn’t go to sleep because Melvin kept farting.I was trying to sleep and all I could hear was Waata and Melvin eating biscuits.

It was the next day,the final day of camp.I loved all the activity's that we did during camp because they all had a challenge.I can't wait till the next camp because that camp was awesome.

Japan Disaster

On Friday there was a devastating earthquake that annihilated japan with a tsunami following it.The roads were like hills because the earthquake moved one part of the road well above the other side.The tsunami caused the coast of japan to scatter like toys.

The earthquake didn't do much damage to Japan it only annihilated a little bit of it.The largest earthquake measured 8.9 on the Richter scale which is very high.The earthquake made the roads go out of place which will be very hard to put back into place.

The earthquake caused 10 meter high wall of wave that destroyed the coast of japan.The tsunami did a lot more damage than the earthquake it caused a lot more buildings to fall down.The tsunami rushed in like a herd of buffalo's.

After the earthquake and tsunami had ended Japan was like toys had just fallen out of a toy box.A lot of buildings were destroyed and thousands of people are lost.Some are also homeless and have no food to eat.

Cricket


All the Thursdays starting from week two some cricket players have been coming to teach us how to play cricket.Their names are Hammond,Chris and Robin and they are pro cricket players.Every Thursday they teach us a new skill which is very cool and one of them is called the pull shot.

When they came to give us lessons we played a little game that was to improve our hitting.The Game was to see who could get the most runs.After we had our turns we got the results and my team had been victorious.

The pull drive is an attacking shot which is a very good one because you can hit very far with it.
That is one of my favourite shots because I like attacking with power.The front foot drive is a attacking hit but pull drive is better.

Beyblading with Logan


On Saturday Logan and I played beyblades.He used Ldrago and I used Flame Libra.It was a good battle but Flame Libra had been victorious and Ldrago had lost by miles.

The next battle was between Pegasus and Earth eagle which are two legendarys. Logan had finally won with his pegasus. He won by a way of knockout he knocked me out of the ring which was kinda embarassing because Earth eale is lick the best beyblade in the game
