Cross country

Cross Country

On Wednsday the 11th of september we had a school cross country. In the cross-country we had four different things we needed to do and once we completed each task we got a letter on our arm like S for skipping or K for kicking. Up first for my group we just got to just chill out and eat cake/brownies and ice blocks the group's went in year groups so I was in the year 5's. After chilling out we got to go to the soccer goals we all got turns scoring in different goals there were big soccer goals and small soccer goals we had to get a certain amount of goals to go to the next activity the next activity was skipping. Skipping was pretty simple because all we had to do was grab a rope and start skipping. after a bit of skipping we went to the obstacle course we had to race each other. The obstacle course was pretty hard but fun we had to do the obstacle course on the playground after climbing and racing it was time for the second to last activity.

The second to last activity was cheering and doing exercises. We had to cheer on everyone that went past us it was really fun and we also had to practice for the run and that was my least favourite part of cross country but I had to do it anyway. The boys went lined up at the starting line and then we were off we were all running as fast as we could I was in last most of a race we had to do at least two laps I came second to last but that was alright I was just happy I finished the race. Also I would say my favourite activity was the obstacle course. Blog you later Bye!

The story of the century😎

My Amazing Narrative

for writing we had to write a story about our holiday but we had to change it up a bit we had to turn it into a narrative we had to write our holiday as a fairy tale. and my story is bit over extradited but that's what I think is good about it. In my story its about me going ice skating in Antarctica but in real life I just went ice skating hope you like my story Bye.

Ice skating 

“Aidan! WAKE UP you’re gonna be late for holiday program” said mum. “Ok mum where am I going today,” said Aidan. “oh ice skating” said mum. “oh come on!” said Aidan.

Today I have to go to holiday program but I don't know why I can’t just go to one of my friends' houses. hopefully I'll at least have some fun at ice skating I’m not sure which ice skating rink we're all going to but I no it's gonna be cold now that I'm at holiday program I get on the van and go to the ice skating rink. where finally here but we aren't in an ice skating rink where in Antarctica and the only reason I know that is because I brought my phone with me just encase I got bored so I checked where we were on google maps. we get out of the van find somewhere to sit and then we check our shoe size and put on some ice skating shoes. I started skating i’m not very good but i tried and failed I had to hold onto the side of the mountain but I kept on falling onto the ice.

After a while I gave up then I went to explore instead of playing on my phone  because I was getting bored watching everyone but then I found a penguin so he kept me company. We played and had fun but then the holiday program people could see me with the penguin and told me to put him back where I found him. So then I had to sit down and watch I got really bored but then…

A GIANT polar bear came running over the mountain tops and crashed into the ice. The ice started to crack and everyone fell into the water under the ice, they all had to swim onto the rocky edge of the mountain then run into the van we almost got out of the polar bears reach then it ripped open the back of the van. We slipped down a hill of snow and got out of his reach then we were all celebrating in the small remains of the van. So then we had to get a tow truck and the guy in the tow truck asked what happened so we told him we were attacked by a polar bear but he didn’t believe us. 

But anyway, after that I got back home and snuck my penguin back with me. I did have a feeling it was my fault the polar bear attacked because I took the penguin but I don't think the penguin liked him anyway. When I told my mum what happened she didn’t believe me either she thought the penguin was a stuffed toy. I got pretty bored but then last time a got bored I was almost killed by a polar bear anyway I just jumped up onto the couch and started to play some games on the ps4. And my penguin bites my hand and waddles away with the controller just when I think I can finally relax so then I have to go chase a penguin around the house then he runs into the lounge hops onto the couch and starts playing my games and somehow he won. 

And so the moral of the story is don't steal and never let a penguin on your PlayStation it may be good he gets the world record on all of your games. But then you will have absolutely nothing to play because he’s beaten the hole game. Then after all of that I obviously never wanted to go back to holiday program ever again so my mum finally let me go to my friends house instead and show of all of my wins that my penguin actually got so i'm just happy penguins don't speak English because if they did he would give away that he got all of those wins. Well at least I don’t have to go to holiday program anymore and now I can beat all my friends on my PlayStation now. Anyway, after I go to my friends house I go home and get back on the PS4 and play with my friend Atreyu and then as soon as I join him I suddenly teleport into a game and the game said to me you are in the game phoenix mountain you will be joining Atreyu very soon…

“Oh come on not again I thought the adventure was over,” said Aidan

“Hi Aidan” said Atreyu. “5 4 3 2 1” said the game “Aaaaaaa! Oww I hit my head” said Aidan "Atreyu help me there's a dragon" said Aidan "um I think I was Just eaten HELP!"

Best camp of 2019

BEST CAMP EVER

Hi bloggers today I'm going to talk about our school camp also known as the best camp of 2019. Anyway let me tell you all about our camp. Firstly at school we were waiting in the junior classes in front of the school . When it was time to go we all had to be sorted out into colored groups I was in red then we lined up in the drive way and got onto the bus then we drove off. After that we reached our first stop the Hamilton Gardens we walked into the Hamilton Gardens then we all sat down in the middle of the Hamilton Gardens and had something to eat, after that we had a photo Hunt we had to look all around the garden and try to find the different things on the sheets, we had two sheets and we had to find the garden on the picture. After that we all met up in the middle of the Hamilton Garden and we handed in our sheets then we just took some photos then messed around with the fountain.

Then we got back on the bus and just kept on going it felt like forever so then we slept and played a few games on the bus then we got to the Ed Hillary/Otorohanga walkway. Then we did another challenge where we had to find things in the board's with some of New Zealands history and I would say my favourite board was the pavlova board because I really like to eat pavlova and if you dont know what pavlova is, well pavlova is a type of cake. After that we had lunch and then we handed in the sheets of paper with our answers then we went on a walk to the Jim Barker memorial playground there were lots of things there and there were tons of cool pictures and things to play with sand paintings after that we got another class photo and then we walked back to the bus. We got on the bus then just sat down and waited for a few hours in the bus as it traveled South. Our next stop was the Taumarunui school so we walked into the school and we got to play on their playground. They had a big Court so we bought some balls to play basketball or other sports and they had two play grounds and a big mountain to play on and we were there for about an hour and we got lots of photos.

Then we got on the bus again and after a few hours we made it to the Crossing Lodge we were all tired and then the people at the lodge showed us where our rooms where then we put our bags down in our room and we got ready to go into the dining room. Then after we all had a talk about camp and what we need to do we had something to eat then we had to go to sleep but the other nights we got to play games and watch movies. The next day we had to wake up at 6:00 in the morning and I dont think anyone was happy about that but we got ready anyway to get on the bus. Once we were all ready and on the right bus we had to do a count off. We drove to the mountin and surprisingly it wasn't that cold but that might have been because we were wearing thermals and our ski gear.

Then we got our skis or snowboards and our boots but they are not normal boots. We got our stuff and went to Happy Valley and played out in the snow to have some free time, so we played around for a while and then it was time for our first lesson. We walked over to our instructer and they told us what to do, the first step was to kick the part where your foot goes into untill your foot is in, but theres quite a few more steps to go over but I dont really need to talk about those because we got the hang of it pretty quickly and some of us already new how to ski. After our lesson we got to have lunch so we sat down and had something to eat and some of us used our money to buy chips or a hot chocolate. Then we headed back on to the slopes for free time or we just played in the snow, then it was time to go. We got back to the lodge had a bit of free time in our rooms then we got to do challenges like the cleanest room gets a prize then we had dinner played some games my favourite game was probably spotlight where we got to run out side and hide in the dark and the first one to find the old big fire place won. Then we had to go to bed.

Then we did the same thing every day we got our skis or snowboard on and went out on the slopes for a lesson or for free time we had lunch and basically did the samething every day. Until Friday we had to pack all our stuff and be ready to leave. We sang songs to the people at Mt Ruapehu even though that was on Thursday and we said bye and sang some songs to the people at the Crossing and said thank you. Then we got on the bus and left. After we left we stopped at the pools and luckily it was warm because it was heated so we got to play for a while and we got to have hotdogs for lunch, and the we all got back on the bus. Also after a while we got to have a quick stop at the Huka falls. Then after a few hours we had a quick stop at Hamilton Gardens we got to have somthing to eat we also thanked the parents and the bus drivers then we got a class photo and then we were on our way back to Auckland, by the time we got back to school it was quite dark and we were all happy because we got to see our Families, but sad camp was over. 

Now if there was just anything I could say to the next people going on camp I would probably say to just try it and have new experiences and challenge yourself, like me challenging myself to wake up at 6:00 in the mornning and... dont forget to have fun.
