My trip to Tauranga

My trip to Tauranga

On Sunday my lovely mum took me for an 1 hour drive to KatiKati in Tauranga. Mum and i met my Nana in the L&P cafe, while we were there i had some breakfast, “IT WAS DELICIOUS” i said after chomping every last mouthful. It was just a bacon and egg bun also a vanilla milkshake but the buns bacon was nicely chewy. The milkshake was sweet and bubbly.

So i drank every last mouthful.

After that delicious breakfast mum,Nana and i trodded outside and started bringing my heavy bags out of mum’s car and into Nana’s flash new car, mum said sarcastically”Hey check this out how surprising that Nana’s car is outside of the car park, i had no idea what mum was talking about, but then she wispered in my ear and told me that Nana always parks her car outside of the car park because she’s worried her car will get scratched.

HA!HA! i shouted out loud in laughter. “That’s hilarious”. “Ok thats enough Nana said in a kind voice cause of course she is never angry, now it was time to travel to Tauranga with Nana and i had a wonderful time.

Term 2

                          Term 2
Term 2 was a great term we had lots of things that were fun first this was one of them Squash it was so cool and i now know how to play it and man its cool how to play squash is first you have a buddy and each one of you have a racket and one of you have a ball and when your ready the person who has the ball hits it with his racket and when it hits the wall and when it does a bounce on the ground the other person hits with his racket and it keeps going on until someone hits the ball out of bounds or hits it to high their out and the other person wins.

Art
Art in room 2 was very exciting we learned about a new artist named Hundertwasser, we learned about Hundertwasser and we got to do our own picture in Hundertwasser style but we did a sustainability picture i did a picture of plants and forest, Hundertwasser was born on the 15th of December 1928.


Music lessons
We have also had music lessons that were fun and interesting, in the music lessons we got to here very old songs that we haven't heard that were quite funny watching and other times we learned to play the te rakau sticks that were very fun and we did one only once was playing instruments to a random beat.

Jamie Oliver day
Jamie Oliver day was quite fun, on Jamie Oliver day we were in teams of our table groups each one of us at least had to bring some ingredients i had to bring 2 carrots and 2 tea spoons and that was easy for me because i have horses and i have to give them carrots most of the time but then when i got home we ran out so we had to get some in the morning before school but that didn't work out like we expected

In Music my learning was about how to use new instruments and learning new music.
I found out how interesting music can be and how fun it can be to learn.
I wondered what some songs were about.
The most difficult thing was playing the drums to a random beat.
Now i know how to play different instruments.
My next step is playing the drums maybe.
The most fun part was listening to new songs that were quite funny.

Lactic turkey

                                 Lactic Turkey
                                                                            Long bay beach
At Torbay school Tuesday 1st of June 2014 we went to lactic turkey that is a day when we get  into groups of 4 or 3 and we have a race like the amazing race Torbay school was up against different kinds of schools lactic turkey was done at Long bay  beach, in lactic turkey we had a map in each group and a number pinned on our te-shirt there was a whole lot of activities we had to do up and down mountains and climbing trees and all sorts of stuff that puffed us out. At Lactic turkey we did activities that included Sustainability like first of this is one of them we saw pest animals like possums, weesles, and more these animals are pests that kill our native birds and are intruders at farms by eating chicken eggs and more stuff that people wouldn't want to eat.

Another activity was just learning how to take a plant out of its pot without losing parts of it, and i went very well doing it, in my group i was not very happy with it because i had no girls only Tygan, Yuji, and Oscar and... Oscars father. Never mind i still had fun, for lunch i sat with my friends Alicia and Emily and we had a lot of laughing going on and that was the best part sitting with them. In Lactic turkey Oscars father promised us that if we started running well for our team to win we would be rewarded with a zombie chew lolly but we couldn't spread out to much other wise we would loose 20 points and that wouldn't be good would it.

These zombie chews made the boys act like naughty zombies but i have to agree i liked them as well but i didn't act like a zombie because i am a very good behaved young girl, when we got back to school i was re-leaved that we were there my legs were killing me  and i ran out of water but i had a great day even though we didn't win,YAY! WHAT A GREAT DAY.
