CHOCOLATE

Just know we were just given chocolate because my reading group read a book about chocolate.The chocolate was amazing by the way. The book we were reading about was fair trade chocolate which is a company that pays the chocolate farmers a fair living a mount of money.Doing this research I found out that most chocolate companys don’t get payed enough for how much work they do.

1st week of term 2

This week i’m doing my blog post about one of my matariki one of the activities I have chosen for this week was to do a collarge about my goals, my family and my passions. We have done a lot of very detailed colouring and a lot of  learing around matariki.

Right now we are also learning a lt about shapes we are making poster that we have present in front of the class i’m doing  an octagon jujst because I thought would be really easy and it is, we’ve been doing a lot of research and i have learnt so much more about an octagon. Like an octagpon is a chiniese symbol for good luck and completness.

camp

Camp was really fun we did heaps of activities and I even went somewhere where I have never gone before like the Kape. On the first day we were split into five groups there was the water slide, slippery hockey, gaga ball, obsicale course and kayaking, then in the evening we went to the beach for a swim and a walk.

On the second day we got on the bus and started driving to thye kape it actually felt like a really short trip if i’m being honest it was boring n the way back we had sandwhiches and baking we played soccer and batdown oh and bullrush at a lake near bye then we went tlo the beach and finally we went back to camp.

On the last day we went to taipa and had a water day we went sailing, pandel bourding and we jumped of the wharf I was atceally pretty proud of myself because I have a huge fear water and boats but I ended up doing it.

Circus and Disco

CIRCUS

Yesterday was our big prformance im not going to lie it was a bit boring but I did like prforming our show was around 2 hours long, we were all in miss matched costumes and had crazy face paint on. My favourite part of the circus was most probably the dress that I wore especially when I spun around every one in my preformance grouphad matching face paint but in all different colours.
