Goals for this year

My goals for this year are to improve on my writing because I need to learn how to go back and re tell it (my story) in my head and fix it up to see if it makes sense. I have really improved on my reading I am reading higher than my age level. What I am learning to do is improve my spelling so that I will get brainy in class.

What I am looking forward to this year is camp because I like camp. I am looking forward to swimming, eating, sleeping and doing the activities.

I live in Pt England and I live close to my grand parents house. That is my life.

earthquake

Yesterday there was a earthquake in Christchurch and it is pretty sad because it had a devastating effect on the people in Christchurch. The rating of the earthquake was 6.3, that is pretty big. But this is the second time that it hit Christchurch and this one was critical. I also hope that none of my family died in this thing. Lots of people died and many lived.

Holiday Highlights

My holiday was so so awesome because I went fishing and also I did water sports, plus diving. But my top two things in the world were diving and my all time favourite was the jet ski, because I liked falling off it. It was funny.
Then I had a go at holding the steering wheel on the boat and it was outstanding, but a little horifying at the same time. But then I got used to it.

Then we went back to shore to go and get our diving gear inside the car. We drove off to some beach and we went to an island and went diving around there, and it was fun. What we caught were some mussels, pipis, kina and some types of fish like snapper and some kawai. Later we went for a ride to Okahu Bay to go and watch the concert. We saw our cousins there and we went over and they hopped into the boat. Then we went for a ride around Rangitoto and it was alright. We dropped them off back at Okahu Bay and we went back to the beach for a little swim. When we went home, we all smelt like fish and we all stunk out the car. In the end I felt all smelly.

THE END.

Tamaki Tech

Woo hoo we are going to tech today! Year 7 and 8 students went down to Tamaki College to go and do technology classes. The things that we were doing where food tech, wood tech, science, art and electronics.

My first class was wood tech and it was pretty boring but then it turned out out to be cool. When we started we were learning how to draw 3-D pictures and I learnt how to draw a 3-D truck. It looked cool. Then we got out our pamphlets and we had to pick out our best five drawings. I picked out a dunking pool, a truck, a coffee machine, a boat and a car. Later we talked about the rules and I only remember one rule. The rule is don't walk around with a chisel in your hands. When we finished wood work we all walked back to school and then we had to write about it. In the end I felt bored...........
