Wildebeest writing

This is my Wildebeest writing. We used an app called I fake text. I like how i'ts like an I-phone. Here is my writing below

“Lets cross the island” said Munchin.

“No there is a crocodile in the water!” says Crackers

They start arguing, “Its a log” snorts Munchin.

“No a Crocodile,” said Crackers.

“I will kick it then”  Munchin says to Crackers.

“I will stand on it” said Crackers.

He goes and hops on...“Maybe you are right says Crackers.

CRUNCH! “Crocodile” Says Munchin.

Another Wildebeest comes along “is that a log”

“NO!”  

To be continued...

Suddenly An Earthquake!

The earthquake!

The earthquake this morning was huge. I am really freaked out because there will probably be another earthquake later I hope it won't be huge because of all the families with kids who need to get under the table. I need to get an emergency bag ready in case of a bigger one later. I rush and make sure I know where torches are.

Finally dinner. There had only been a few unnoticeable earthquakes. I got calmer there had been no more earthquakes. We had been checking on Geonet Its a handy website to see if there is an earthquake.  By bedtime there were no more earthquakes. I could go to sleep and rest.

Thanks for reading my writing

The Rata tree

The Rata tree

We get to the path where the Rata tree is. We start walking, I was right up the front it was slippery and wet. 5 minutes later the track splits into 2! I call to Mr M “Which way?”

he goes back to see Mrs Hill, “Should we go up the steep track because its quicker”.

“No it might be a bit too slippery and people will slip over and they will take each other out” said Mrs Hill

We decide to take the longer but easier track.

Later on we see a weta box!  We open up the box, there were no wetas in there. We hear a big sigh from room 16 “Oohhh”

Finally we make it to the Rata tree “its massive!” I say to Ollie.

“ Yeah wow I am amazed I love camp Kaitawa” said Ollie

Finally it was my turn I get to climb through the tree. I was so excited! I climbed up, it was as slippery as a whale in the water. As I climb I slipped on the way because up there were huge puddles all over the Rata tree where the roots were, I climbed through the Rata tree and I wave to the girls and adults they wave back I turn around to come back. Then I stop in my tracks to a HUGE SPIDER...

I keep walking trying not to think about the spider. I jump past it but there is another spider I’m so glad its about 3 metres away spinning a big web.

I hop down and I slip big time into a branch. I move and I get down then we start walking back to the vehicles, I am in front. I am first to get back to the cars. It was really slippery on the clay I go sprinting down, I really enjoyed the walk/run!

This is me in the middle of the Rata Tree.

My camp reflection

Reflection for Camp

My goal for camp was not to get to home sick

I achieved this because I was fine and did not get home sick.

Something I was pleased with was having warm showers

because I hate cold showers!

I really enjoyed learning the different stuff about room 16

because everyone was really different like Liam, talking about salami, Marcus being the loudest in the animal game!

Something I found hard was caving with the big spiders really close to me

Something that made me think was kayaking

because I was trying to get faster but I could not get faster

· My top 5 favourite things about camp were:

Favourite Things	Reason Why
1. Kayaking	I was quick because I had done it before although it still was hard.
2. Bedtime stories	I loved them because they were nice and a little bit scary but not really.
3. Mobilo	Building strong cars and having battles with my friends.
4. Kiwi	getting to touch a kiwi for the first time ever!
5. Making the club with Liam, Ollie and Cam	I enjoyed making the club because its lasted all the way till now and it's going to last.

Kayaking on lake Kaitawa!

Squishing on a life jacket. I hop in a single kayak. Narelle pushes me out. I yell to Cameron, “This is awesome I’m going to the reids over there”. Cam screams to me “ I am following you!” I head to Ollie hes just going round in circles. I get to him, “What are you doing?” as I gave him a shunt. I hear a noise I look around its a Kereru! Up in the tree, I wonder what its doing I thought to myself, by now it was a speck in the distance. I decide to go up to the bank, there I could just watch the nature and what the birds were up to. I hear David he saying “Lets play tag! I’m in” said David. Everyone was crowded around David so they were going to get tagged. David went straight at Josh, Josh was not quick enough to get away. there was the first person tagged, it was like a virus everyone was getting tagged I was doing my own thing just gazing at the sky and the birds I decide to lay low and stick around the edge of the lake. I decide to go around the lake again. I go past the landing wharf I get called in, my butt is wet! I didn’t care I will have to wait for about ten minutes Cam comes in I go back out with him, we are in a double “Left left” I scream at Cam. “Ok I’m trying he yells back” We decide to go back in. We both want and need single kayaks. I get to go out first in this cute scrunched up kayak, it’s red I Kayak with Cam and Ollie they were following me. I head towards the reids wanting to see a big fish there was none though. I decide to go to the middle of the lake and see how deep it is, deeper than the ore I was surprised I did not want to fall out now I go smash into a big stick I start paddling backwards I go on a rampage racing all the double kayaks, I beat them by miles! I decide I’m going to stare at the Kereru, the Kereru then flies straight over my head like a Hawk I turn and look around I see a road, power lines cutting over the lake and a lot of trees. we get called in. We get told thats it. We take the kayaks up the adults clean them I found the kayaks really heavy. Ellis is helping us. He was a fantastic helper. I love kayaking. I race back down to see if anyone needs help, nobody needed help though, I thought they might I was wrong, I sprint with all my might up the hall. trying to get to the top really fast. I make it with a few deep breaths. I kept looking at the fire pits, thinking I want to have a bonfire. We all head back up to the dorms to play quietly while the adults make lunch. For lunch is cheese toasties, Yum I thought, “I love cheese toasties” I said to Ollie. “Me too” said Ollie. Finally we could eat some toasties! They were yummo, scrumptious and delicious! I reckon the parents did an amazing job on the toasties. I ate 7 pieces, they were roll cut in half. After lunch we had the Amazing race! Sam kept saying “ The race is amazing because I’m in it” Omg that was annoying! Thanks for reading Ben.

My term 1 Reflection

This is my May reflection of my intervew. I hope you enjoy. You will see some of my  favorite work.

Rock climbing (week 2)

Today we went rock climbing. I had an totally fantastic awesome time. I had an awesome time walking there. When we got there I went and sat at the circle. Luke and Steve came and sit by me, well I did say hello. When it was time, I went first I did not get that high but I was going to get another turn when I was on my 2nd turn I had to go up the box I made it ‘yeah!’ I said in my head. I kept climbing and then I made it to the top I was so happy. My legs were num I came down they were so happy especially Tyrone. He could not stop smiling at all. Thats the end on rock climbing week 2 Here are some photos below.





       

                                   Thanks Mrs Okane for taking us!

My 3D shape!

Hi everyone. Here is my 3D shape below on the left.
It has 2 faces
0 Verticies, (corners)
0 Edges            

                                          

Below here is Hemanis shape. It is a square base pyramid.


It has 5 faces,
5 corners,
8 edges.

To figure out the edges you need to add the corners and faces together and plus them together then takeaway 2 then you have the edges.

Me at the V8's in front of Craig Lowndes car!

This was a time of my life being infront of Craig Lowndes car as you can see. I'm also holding his #3 place trophy I was so lucky I was the only one who got to do that I asked if I could get a photo of it and then I was allowed to get to go in front of his car I was so excited I was just amazed!

I also got to hold his trophy it was a 3rd place trophy!

Cube for maths

                           This is the cube side on now you can see 3 across and 4 up.

This is our cube. It is a solid shape. it is not a trick. I enjoyed making it. I think looking down on it it looks like a tall building. Please comment thankyou for reading. The height =4cm, perimeter= 12 (3+3+3+3) and the area = 9cm squared (3x3) and the volume = 36cm cubed (HxLxW = 4x3x3).
