Cross Country

Hi Bloggers, a couple of days ago we did Cross Country it was so fun and exciting also very tiring. I came fourth just behind Sam but that means that I will be going to running zones later in the year. Last year I went to zones but I couldn't blog about it because I was Year 4 and didn't have a blog but this year I can and it's to be a very cool experience. This year I think we're doing the run for zones around Mt Roskill, last year we did it on Monte Cecilia so it will be a different experience. Hope You Enjoy The Pics!

Cross Country was really fun and really hard.

Even now I'm still tired from it.

Magical World of Crazy Science - By Richard and Robyn

Today we had a Crazy World of Science Show. It was amazing and I learnt a lot of things about science. The show was mostly based on chemicals. I was most amazed on how he ignited a lighter then put his hand over the lighter threw the fire up and it became a firework. Another thing he did was he taught us how chemical reactions work. Basically, a chemical reaction happens when 2 or more things mix together and it changes the state of the substance. I learnt that there is chemical in babies nappies called a Polymer this turns liquid into solid straight away. He also gave us a fact that the thinnest object in the world can be seen with the naked eye. Another really cool thing he showed us was he got a blow dryer and a small ball he turned the blow dryer on and let go of the ball and it hovered It was so amazing and then he went on to get leaf blower and a giant earth ball and that even hovered as well. I wonder now how he made fire turn into a firework and make it sparkle. Hope You Enjoy The Pics!

Camp Slideshow

Hi Guys, one week ago the we went on an extraordinary camp to Mt Ruapehu where we did Skiing and Snowboarding. Before we went we started making a slideshow about Mount Ruapehu and the other mountains in that region also we went to the Hamilton Gardens and the Edmond Hillary Walkway so we answered a few questions about those places. The Parents and Staff took a lot of photos on the trip. The first lesson that I had on skiing was not very fun and boring but was good to get the basics of skiing back into my brain. The second lesson was way more fun and exciting because we got to ski from the top of Happy Valley and do jumps. At the end of the day I was a lot better at skiing. Hope you enjoy my slide and the pics that we took.

Doing this work was really fun it was even more fun going on camp and spending time with my friends.
 Next year for camp I would love to go to Mount Ruapehu again for camp.
I'm still a little bit bummed out about coming back from such an exciting camp.
The hardest thing to learn on skiis was how to stop almost instantly.
