Te Kinga Lake Day

Yesterday, our class had a lake day. We started by walking down the street and to the Velinski track. While we were there one of our groups practised first aid with their leader, when we had to do our first aid they came up with a random thing that might occur during the walks, the leader of the other group had hypothermia and the people In their team had the goal to give them warmth and bring them to shelter. When we did this we only had 3 minutes but It ran out of time and they failed. After we had exited the track we left off for the swing-bridge track and did the full loop before leaving to go have lunch at the rocks near the pontoon. Once we had finished digging In to our food we went back to the swing-bridge and we practised our first aid a few more times then we left the track and went to the beach and set our stuff on the sand and had a competition for who could build the best shelter from things on the beach. Surprisingly, the team I was In won. We then left off In our little groups to make fires, we even got to make s'mores! We sat down for a while to eat our treats we have created before packing our things up and making our way back to the school, and got on the bus and left for home.

Art smart

This week we took pictures of plants and other things outside In the rain. I decided that I wanted to take a picture of a tunnel that we have in our school and edit the picture a bit before showing her the picture. 

Anzac Art!

In our class we had the students in the lower year join us and we created Anzac day art, we had until lunchtime to complete the artworks, we all completed them In time before lunch and they all looked amazing. Here is the picture that I drew.

Natural Disasters

In our class we have been learning about natural disasters and have chosen to write a narrative about them. My one was about a landslide around my house, my favourite part of It was when the landslide had stopped, my teacher came and tried to steal our puppies until she saw all of the damage that had been done to the house and she  called emergency services to help us get out. We spent quite a few days working on them and they all turned out really great.

Top Teams 2021 Term 1

Today our school did the Top Teams challenge. We were split Into groups of six

and we did nine challenges, at the end they announced the winners and the top three. My 

favourite activity was the Burst Pipe where you had to float a small ball out of the pipe that had holes In It. The whole school gave It a go and all had a great time doing the challenges.

 

World Wildlife day

 At school we had world wildlife day where we dressed up as Jungle and Forest Animals. Then we did an art project using any Jungle/Forest Animal, we used crayons and dye, to complete the looks. Here is the picture that I made, a panther.We all did a picture, there were Elephants, Giraffes and even Pandas, all the drawings that they did were amazing.
