KAYAKING 2019!!

Today my class had a surprise to transport to Wero Whitewater Park and experience kayaking. I was overwhelmed with excitment because I've always wanted to see what it felt like rowing. 

We arrived at the destination, from there we prepared ourselves for the kayaking lesson. One of the instructors taught us the two main actions we should know about kayaking. After all the confusion, it was time to kayak around the area. 

The hardest part during kayaking was paddling forwards because, sometimes your boat would turn a different direction randomly. Other than that I had an amazing time kayaking with my class! 

Starting Our Pieces...

Today at tech we started to create another design but only making our pieces for our game. All I did was simply ctrl+c to copy the shape, & ctrl+v to paste the shape onto a new platform. Next I decided to produce a new game using tinkercad again. 

During the process of making my new game, I found out how to draw things using the scribble effect. I drew many things like animals, shapes, food etc. Liza and I had a competition to see 

who was the best artist. 

Kiwi Kids News- COUNTDOWN TO STOP SELLING ENERGY DRINKS TO CHILDREN?!

New Zealand super market Countdown, has announced there will be an age restriction for drinking energy drinks. Starting from September, people will need to be 16 and over to purchase an energy drink.

Energy drinks are not recommended for minor children as this move had an amount of support. Many are suggesting the government should bring in more responsible rules.

Research from Food Standards Australia and New Zealand shows that energy drinks have less than three percent of overall caffeine. What are your opinions?
