Camp Bentzon.

2011-11-21T09:48:00.005+13:00

When we hopped onto the fairy I was really stoked with excitement to be on it. We had to be quiet as there were visitors on the fairy as well as us. We were getting close to Camp Bentzon and Dillon and the boys had to lead a haka to show there respect of being able to be on camp Bentzon. When we hopped off we grab a bag each and took them to the deck. We finally finished that and went for a long hike. As we were doing the hike we went up hills and down hills it was really tiring for me and I felt like I was going to faint.

We got to the end and we were playing around to have a rest. After a few hours we went back to Camp Bentzon and had free time for a few hours an till dinner time. We had potatoes and chicken for dinner. My highlight was abseiling it was really scary at the start when I was going up the staples on the side of the abseiling. When I was at the top I was scared when I was up there but then I got use to it and I was going down. I was half way and I made it to the bottom of the Abseiling and I was really proud of my self.

Rugby World Cup opening ceremony.

2011-09-16T12:21:00.003+12:00

On Friday night the All Blacks played Tonga but before they played there was an opening ceremony for the Rugby World Cup . My favourite part of the ceremony was when a boy was imagining that he was a famous rugby player. The boy tried to get a try and he made it all the way to the try line. As he went to the try line where he saw someone standing in a cloud of smoke. It was the best of them all, Jonah Lomu.

My second favourite part of the Rugby world cup opening ceremony was when there were fireworks in the air. The fireworks were really cool I could even see it from my house.Hope you like my story GO THE ALL BLACKS!!

Pt England on one news.

2011-08-24T10:21:00.005+12:00

On Tuesday afternoon TV one news came to our classroom and said that we were going to be on TV at 6' 0 clock on TV One. The people from TV One told us to just sit and do our work while they were filming us. The lady started to talk and it was really hard to stop looking at the camera. When I went home I was really excited about it being on TV One News. I feel sorry for the other schools because they can not afford netbooks.

The Life Education bus.

2011-08-09T09:12:00.005+12:00

After that we had to do Harold's homework because Harold asked us to and we said yes. It was really fun doing Harold's homework because we learned more about body part.

This was one of my best parts of the day. My second favorite part was the Tactile Dome. It was so dark that I couldn't even see my friends. I got to the middle of the Tactile Dome and I felt some net things, they were so saw on my knees. I finally finished the Tactile Dome Maze and I was happy that I finished. But there was some thing really sad because some one in my group was crying because she was lost and my group left her behind and we forgot about her. When she came out we said "Are you all right?" She said yes and we said sorry too her.When we finished that we did some other things and we went to the exit door and said thank you to Frasier and we hopped onto the bus and drove back to school.

We were asking Miss Rogers some question's and when we finished asking her question's we were watching the rugby game with Miss Rogers.

1,000 years ago I had a pet which was a dinosaur it was called a Brachiosaurus it lived on an island. All my Dinosaur did was eat leaves and plants and it sat on it’s but all day long. But the thing she really really liked to do was to run around too. Sometimes in her life she gets chased after by a T-REX he has huge teeth and a huge body. A T-REX is a meat eater and that is why he chases after Dinosaurs. My Brachiosaurus has 2 sisters and 1 brother. My Brachiosaurus says “ I am the best at jumping around like a rabbit" then he starts to jump around.

One day he went to the river to go and have a drink of water. And there were heaps of dinosaur’s everywhere they were eating plants and leaves and that is how I knew that they were the same as me. And that is how I made friends and we were playing games it was really fun there by the river and I had never had friends like them they are really cool. Then my mum came and we had to go home but I didn’t wont to go home so I asked my mum if I could stay the night and she said YES I was happy to stay at my new friends place.
