camp

Last week as you probably know we were on camp and it was really fun.
It went really quickly and I loved it. Some of my favourite activitys were

-caving
-flying fox
-high ropes
-canoeing
-bridge jumping
-camping
and lots more.

I was most proud of completing my lent goal which was to try everything in front of me. I was actually suprised that I did. My absaloute favourite activity would be the flying fox as it was so beautiful. If I could do any of It again I would probably go back to levin park where we stop of at on the way to o.p.c.

Overall Camp was super fun!!

Group work

This week we did  art work on the Maori legends that I was talking about. My favourite thing about it was working with my friends. I was in a group with Jessica, Sylvia and Charlotte and we did the story how Maui caught the sun. It was really exciting working in other classes and getting to work with my friends. I think we worked well together and we all contributed great ideas. If we could do it again I would do it exactly the same, except maybe come up with the ideas quicker. Over all I think we worked really well and I love our artwork

maori legends

This week i have learnt a lot about all the maori legends. My favourite one is the maori creation story. It was really interesting comparing the papa and rangi legend and the christian creation story. I also liked learning about the

Ngake and Whātaitai the taniwha of Wellington harbour

in reading. 
I find it really interesting learning about all sorts of cultures. The only thing I don't like is pronouncing the names. I hope we do more this year on maori culture.
