Swimming at school 2021

 Hey bloggers 

On the 13th of may we have been going to Cameron pools for water safety we all got there on a kiwi coach bus from our school to Cameron pools when we get there we would go in the changeing rooms and when we would come out changed we would wate for the other class to get out then your teacher would call your name and your jump in the pool (safely). Im in a group with a girl cold Britney. Some of the techers were in the water and some wernt. We started doing streamline across the whole pool on the way back we did back stroke and all sorts of things after that . at The end we could do flips underwater. I really like going under the water and doing funny faces. I love going to Cameron pools my goal is to be a much better swimmer then I am now. 

 

Year 5 Wellbeing with Miss McGrath

Kia ora bloggers 

On the 17th of  May the Year 6 went to Spark Arena to Happy Place and me and all the other Year 5's were with Miss McGrath. 

First we started looking at the Wellbeing survey and some of the questions. We went through them and thought about if it was a sensible answer. Then we did some origami and made a chatter box. We had to write positive things on it. When you have finished you coloured the top or just wrote the colour.  

Here's photos of the steps to how to make a chatter box

1. you have a square piece of paper

    2. fold it into a triangle

3. unfold it from the triangle 

                                                                                                                   4. folded again from the other side

Anzac Under the wires

 On Wednesday at school the class was locked and all the lights were off. And we could not see inside. Me and my friends went to the back deck and we saw the teachers were holding a Nerf gun, so we ran to the front door and we went in. All the teachers were in black clothes and had paint on there face. We looked in the three other classrooms and there was string all over the classrooms tied to all the tables and chairs. It was so exciting and then we got told to get up and get our art books, pencils, pens, rubbers and our ruler. Then we had to roll over and crawl through the strings to get where we need to go. And you were not allowed to touch the wires to do maths. While we were in there we did a maths test through massive loud noises like guns and BOMBS and people shouting. It was so noisy! We had to do maths about when and why we had Wars. Then we did writing, we had to write a post card to our family, then we did a Picture Dictation which I have some photos for you!! 

After that we had to write about the blog post ideas about what we're going to do on the blog post.  Then when we had to pack up all the strings blindfolded which was very hard. We also had to have one person with the blindfold on and one that had to guide them around. We had to go under and over until we got to the end everything  and until it was all clean. And then we got to go HOME!

all of this was because of Anzac about how it would feel when you're in the trenches. My favourite part of it was the picture dictionary.   

here are some photos of the day!
