Swimming at Cameron Pools 🏊🏊🏊

 Swimming at Cameron Pools 🏊🏊🏊

Hi guinea pigs 🐹. Today I will be talking about Cameron Pools. Every Tuesday and Thursday me and my class go to Cameron Pools. The whole syndicate goes at different times because we don't have enough space for everyone. Since we go at different times, Waitemata & Kaiwhare have to have lunch a little bit early. Once we finished our lunch we had to get changed and then we leave. 

We all got assigned a coach but had to switch classes my first coaches name was Jasmine and my new coaches name is Brittany. What we were learning was how to do free style and side kicks. When were ending on the first week Brittany lets us do dolphin dives and this week she let us do mermaid kicks. 

It is really important for all children in NZ to learn how to swim because we live on an island and are surrounded by water.

Hope you enjoy my blog, blog ya later bye!!!

Life in the TRENCHES!!!👲👲👲

 Life in the TRENCHES!!!👲👲👲

Hey guinea pigs 🐹. On Wednesday the 14th of April we had to experience what it was like to be in the war. First we had to enter "no mans land" also known as the Trenches and we were warned once we get in it will be fun but once you get half way though the day it will be uncomfortable. 

Once we all got in we had to get our art book and had to do a basic facts test and we called it "the test under gunfire" and I think I did pretty well considering that was gun noises everywhere. When we did the test we did some ANZAC maths.

We had a little break we did 20 push ups and 10 sit ups then we got our fruit it was a pear. After fruit break we had to write a letter from the trenches this is what I wrote we then had morning tea.

"Dear Mama Nana and Poppa.

At war we are very squished, my knees are sore and there is barely any food. It is very loud and there are so many people dying because of all the gunshots. There are so many rats as big as cats eating all of our food. There are very bad people killing everyone. All of my friends are gone and there are not much of us left. It is freezing and nearly everyone is sick. Oh no someone just died! We are all so stinky and our feet are so mouldy. We are leaving now to go to Gallipoli, this will be our sixth place that we've been to since all the places are too dangerous. I am really sad that I have to leave you for so long. We are getting on the boat now. Hope I get to see you soon 

Lots of love from: Paityn. W,XOXO"

We also did a poem this is what I did

Lots of gunshots 

Only bad food

Very little amount of people left

E everyone has injuries

Rats the size of cats eating our food

Soldiers getting reading for battle He-ya

After morning tea we split into two groups. Group 1 my group went swimming first and the pool was freezing then we get read a story and we had to draw pictures of what was in the story then we had lunch.

After lunch we had to do something weird we had to untangle the string but we had to do it blind folded it was hard but we manged.

Our syndicate treaty 🧑‍⚖️🗺️

Our syndicate treaty 🧑‍⚖️🗺️

Hi Guinea Pigs 🐹, the last two weeks (counting lockdown) we worked on our syndicate treaty we all had to write down some ideas about what it could be, my idea was that the treaty could be NZ but someone else had that idea so I thought that we could have the earth, but we decided to do a book shelf. We all had to write some ideas about what we were going to write on the treaty when we did that we had to colour some  little book spines and write our names on the book. When we did all of that stuff we sadly went into lockdown but the teachers went to school and coloured and made the treaty and glued our little book spines onto it. When they did that they wrote down our treaty here is what it says 

Partnership

• Treat others the way you want to be treated
• Make good choices so you can do your best
• Be kind and friendly to your self and others
• Include people if they are left out and help them if they need it

Protection

• Respect ours and others property
• Put your rubbish in the right bin 
• Stand up for others 
• Be careful around others  

Participation

• Use appropriate language around class and school.
• Listen to staff and our peers.
• Be a good example for others around us to to follow.

hope you all liked my blog here is a photo of our treaty 

  

lockdown 4 😷

   lockdown 4 😷

Hi guinea pigs🐹 it me Paityn and today I will tell you what I did in lockdown. My feelings about lockdown are it was a little bit boring but I did get to spend a lot of time with my family. My favourite time with my family was that I got to watch the last episode of season 1 of Wandavision with my mum in lockdown. My favourite school activity was doing my writing in the lockdown dairy. I feel happy that I can see my friends because they are like family to me and I love them nearly as much as my real family. bye guinea pigs🐹!!!

skateboarding 🛹

 skateboarding!!! 🛹

Hi bunny's 🐇! Friday 4 of  December, we did something really fun we did some ... skateboarding!!! We got to learn lots of great things and we had so much fun!!! We met 2 men Ben & Isaac. They were our coaches. They helped us learn new things we learnt how to crabwalk, to stop, wear a helmet, turn+change direction, to use the nose+tail, to do a tic tack and we learnt more. What was really challenging for me was trying to do the crabwalk,riding down the ramps what was really really challenging for me was balancing.

 We got to play a  game called skateboarding octopus there are two  people in have to  say something that we are wearing or what colour something is. If we Have that colour of thing on us we have to skate away and if we get tug we have to create a human wall so the rest of the players can't get passed us with our skate boards upside down on our feet. 

 What we gained from learning to skateboard is focus,balance,confidence,having fun and most importantly knowing what Miss Daly  wants for X-MAS!!! hope you like my blog  here is     photos to finish it, blog ya later bye!!!
