Caving

“It’s so tight in  here“ I say to Mrs Hill. The line moves less go to the next cave I’m so excited. It is really tight in here as well says Mrs Hill. She helps me up this cave I say thank you. I got up  the rough wall in the cave Miss Hill is at the top to help as I say I do not need help Its easy. I carry on I fall over ouch ( I tumble over ). There mud there Tracey says Marcus I think I know that now but thanks for saying that. Yummy food apples and biscuits. We got to the end of the cave half of the class did a rope challenge a the other went back to camp I went back to camp. I was very cold to do the rope challenge so I didn't. I start walking back with my touch on we get to the car I hop in there fast. The car is very hot.                                 

Rock hopping at camp

Rock Hopping 

I am going up the steep rock. Bridgit launching me up, Mrs Hill pulling me up. I am nearly dropping down into Lake Kiriopukae. Mrs Hill says “give me your  hand please." I say “here." 

Anthony pulled me up to the top. “Thank you," I say to him and I go to the next rock where Miss Patel is. I go up this rock. Ollie helps me up. This is easy to get up. I don't need any more help.

Rock Climbing @ Karamu High school

 Today we went rock climbing at Karamu high school. We had to get 3 Parkvale and 2 Karamu students  my group was Lain , Mia , Hannah , Olivia and me.

 The teacher was Mr Ross I went at kindergarten   and school with his daughter.

Then we got in our harnesses

First my group went to the ground practice and they showed us how to belay and climb.
Then we went to the wall it was really fun and we get to go for the next 2 weeks on Thursday.

Week Two

Today we went rock climbing at Karamu for week 2

Something I was happy with was I made it to the top two times.

Something I was not happy with was it took a long ti

me to get up the wall.

  Here our same photos of me

Walkathon reflection

Reflection for walkathon  (my team leopards )    · Something I was pleased with was my team did really well because they stack together.   · I really enjoyed learning different things about my group because we need to learn lots about our team to go to camp. · Something I found hard was  thinking of our chant and keeping up with the boys. · Something that made me think was remembering our time because we  know our final time.          · Something I want to get better at is  walking faster so I can keep up           (wear better shoes )

camouflaging cats

My first motorbike

 Here is the link to tagxedo http://www.tagxedo.com/

This is my poem here 

I have always been lucky

When I was 5 I got my

first motorbike that was red

and it was called Sally.

I rode it every weekend I never left it.

I would always go outside and wash

my motorbike every day even if it was

sparkly clean.

When I ride my motorbike and

go fast  it feels like I’m flying in the sky.

When I ride my motorbike

and I pass another person on

there motorbike

I feel excited.

When I had Sally

my cousin had the same bike as me

but his was called lightning McQueen

because we always watched lightning McQueen in our bus.

              I still love that motor bike

Here is the recording for my poem 

Hemani and Tracey maths building

From the top

                    This is a tower that me and Hemani made for maths.

                                                  We had to create a solid tower out of 36 colorful blocks.

                                                                       For the area we had 4 centimeters Squared 2 (2x2)

                                                                                           For perimeter we had 8 centimeters (2x2=4x2)

                                         For the volume we had 36 centimeters cubed 3 (9x2x2) (because the height is 9)
