Motat

Guess what I did last Wednesday? I went to Motat. I went on the bus with my class Room 14 and Room 13. We had a lot of fun. We went because of our topic.

First we got on the bus then when we got there we got out of the bus and we went in to a room with one of the leaders.  Then we had morning tea.

Next room 13 went with the teacher while we had to wait, then we went to tactile dome.When we went to the tactile dome we saw lots of fun things around us. When we were at tactile dome some man came out of the door he was talking about tactile dome. Jonita and 3 more girls then it was me and Esrah me and two boys went in. It was dark in the tactile dome. When we got in there we were singing a song. It was hard. We were trying to get out. We were walking then we fell down. When we got back up we were using our hands to see where we were going. Then we were going up hill then we saw the side. We went down the side then we got out of the tactile dome. It was the next person's turn. Then we went to the next things. We played some games - we were playing car games then we went to then other game room.

Badminton

On the first day of badminton we had instructors to show us what to do. Their names were Lorene and Donna. They showed us some skills for badminton

For the first game we had to get a partner. My partner was Texas. Guess what we had to do? We had to do long passes with the shuttle. While we were doing that I did a trick by putting my hand under my legs and hitting the shuttle up in the air and back down to Texas. After that we had another game.

For this game you have to try to get five shuttles in the rubbish bin."This is so difficult," I thought to myself. "I wish I could get some in." Sadly I got nothing in.. I think Texas got some in though.

I enjoyed badminton especially doing high hits. I hope we will do it another day.

Polar Blast

Last night there was snow in Wellington and Dunedin. There was even snow in Auckland in the afternoon. The snow looked like a big of bag of white cushions lying on top of New Zealand. The people in Wellington, Dunedin and Auckland were freezing cold like ice cubes.

imersion assembly

The first day of term at assembly " I felt happy because I was back at school . That day we were learning about the rugby world cup 2011.One of my favorite sports is rugby because you get payed and get famous . MR Jacobson was dressed up in Irish clothes he had a Irish flag on his back and a green curly wig and was shouting out IRELAND! IRELAND!.Team four was one of my bests funny movies because Mr Somerville was the reef of the rugby game and took the ball and got a try . “The teams I go in the world cup is the all blacks and Samoa.

All teachers were all dressed in different country's like new Zealand or Australia and many more.
A man called George Nepia was a former all black his dream was to become
an all black now he’s living the dream.

At Motat, on Wednesday we went in to the pitch black hole of the Tactile Dome. We were at Motat to learn about Bigger, Better, Faster, Stronger. When I was crouching I bumped my head on the wall, because I couldn’t see. After that I was freaked out because I had a lump on my head. I clutched the rope to find the way to go. It was scary because when I turned right I could feel hair hanging down. I was crouching down and crawling, when I collapsed onto the ground onto a cushion. That was the end of the maze.

Then we had morning tea. Later we went to the mirror maze. When I entered mirror maze I keep on bumping into the mirrors and I got confused.

After that we had lunch my friends were telling me funny jokes like,”Why did Peter eat his homework ? Because the teacher said it was a piece of cake .“ I started laughing.


Later we went to see the bikes from the olden days. Back in the days there were some crazy bikes like little bikes where the front wheel was small and the back wheel was big.



Are lesson is about bigger better faster stronger.

Swimming

After walking to the GI pools we went to the changing rooms After that we went to have a quick shower then power walked to the pool. We had to wait for the other people to finish then it was our turn. Miss Squires said” Hop in the pool".
When we were in the pool we did steady strokes, I was gasping for breath. I was bobbing around the pool
When I was swimming Ms Squires told me to kick and I was kicking furiously.
My favourite part was when we did the steady stokes to the end.
