The New flag

I reckon we should change the New Zealand Flag because the fern represents us and the Australian flag looks too similar to the New Zealand flag. We should also change the flag because we are not British, England or Australia.

New Zealand is not Australia and Australia is not New Zealand. New Zealand needs to stand out and step up for themselves.

The River

A woman has two dogs, three rabbits and lettuce.

She must cross a river.

Her boat is unable to transport all in one crossing.

If she transported the dogs, the rabbits would eat the lettuce.

If she transported the lettuce, the dogs would eat the rabbits.

Question: How is she able to transport them all safely?

The blob

Next it was my turn, I got on the blob. Nestled up waiting for the person to jump, I was super nervous, scared and anxious. Then I catapulted up in the air, doing two back flips, I landed with a belly flop.

“Holy moly, that was so fun” I wanted to do that again. This had been the best thing since I had been at camp. The blob made me feel like a superhero.

My Key competency goal

My Key Competency Goal is to share my best work with my audience.

Roller Coaster

It is time. I had waited ages for this moment to arrive, but now it was here, I wanted to wish it away again.

Until today, I had never been so scared for my life.

The sweat poured from my brow as we waited and watched. I felt as if I might faint from nervousness. “I’m so scared” I whispered to my mum.

Closing my eyes, I wished over and over again that the ride would soon end. Was it nearly over? I screamed and screamed and crossed my fingers tight.

Unicycling

We read a book all about unicycling - called Just One Wheel. We learnt about riding unicycles and how to fall off. It was really hard.

Waitangi day

On the 6th of February a crowd gathers to celebrate our nation. A sea of people face the majestic view while our proud flag pole stands strong. The kapa haka group do a performance under the flag pole.
