Great Day At St. Kents

Today room 9 and room 10 took a bud and drove to St. Kents to play some fun activities. When we arrived we had to get into 4 or 5 groups.

After that we went with our St. Kent instructors and played the activities. The activities that my group played were the basketball game and another game but I don't remember the name of it.

I felt exhausting playing the games at St. Kents!

The DANGER Man!

Danger Man
In the story the characters are Josh, Luke, Ryan and Mr Muckle.

At the start of the story, the setting is in a camp site. It was 5:30 early in the morning, and Josh and his friends were asleep. Josh was wide awake and the camp was quiet. Everyone was asleep so Josh decided to look around the camp site with his friends. He woke up his friends and went outside to start exploring.

While they were exploring the camp site, there wasn't much to see but they came across a little lake. Josh and his friends thought that whoever had owned the camp dammed up the stream. There was also a raft. They were looking around and Josh spotted something in the bush. There was a rope that you could ride on to the other side of the lake. It was like a flying fox to them. The flying fox started from one side of the lake and ended to the other side.

His friends were not sure because Josh would switch off his brain and do things that his friends wouldn't do. When Josh made it up to the rope, he wasn't sure to but his friends said that he'll be fine. Josh went and zoomed across the lake, suddenly the rope that Josh was on was getting lower and lower until he reached the lake.

Josh fell in the lake and the owner of the camp was standing there with Luke's dad. The camp owner looked very angry at Josh because Josh did silly things at the camp. Josh was soaking wet and had to go back home. That's why he was called the DANGER MAN!!!

The Commonwealth Games - KW

My KW
K 
I know that different countries go to the Commonwealth Games in Australia. They have different countries that come to watch or do the Commonwealth Games. The Commonwealth Games have sports such as soccer, swimming, running, shot put, ice skating and rugby.

I think that the Commonwealth Games is a competition programme where people can go to the Commonwealth Games, in Australia  and participate. Also I think the Commonwealth Games is where people are good at a sport and they go there to compete other people, to see if they are good enough.

W
I want to know what other types of sports do the people play and what do you do in the Commonwealth Games. Also I want to know why do we have the Commonwealth Games. Lastly I want to know when the Commonwealth Games start and end.

The Lonely Cat

There was a lonely cat

Who was very fat

She didn't know where to be but, 

 found someone that was free

She ran and ran and hit a tree

On her knee was a little cut

She didn't care so she ran until,

she lost her breath of air...

The lonely cat was lost,

She didn't know where to be

She ran and ran and hit a girl
Who was as kind as pearl
So the girl kept the lonely cat,
and put the cat in a safe hat!

Stink Bug Invading New Zealand!

The stink bug that is invading New Zealand came from Japan and were found by the  Ministry of Primary Industries. The Ministry of Primary Industries found 100 stink bugs. The stink bug is an insect that devastates New Zealand's fruit, vegetables, and wine industries.

The stink bugs are sucking insects. They use their proboscis to suck the host plant to feed them self. It can cause widespread on the fruit and vegetable crops. 

The Big Mean Witch!

On a dark, scary night, there lived the evil mean witch

She had a great big itch on her hairy leg

She would snitch children's candy but wouldn't beg

Sometimes she'd cook people that would make her very happy

but she'd also get quite snappy

The witch would crash people's parties,

Sometimes she'd even steal people's smarties,

and would always turned people into panties

Everyone hated the big mean witch, but they couldn't do anything at all

The witch wasn't impressed of what people thought of her, 
so she went and looked for a new home
She looked and looked and finally,
 she decided to live in Rome!

Swimming With Instructors

This week room 10 did swimming with the instructors. We had two instructors for each group to separate us into the two groups.

Once we were all into our groups, we began to swim. For my group we had to hold onto the boards at the top and, kick to the other side of the pool. It was very exhausting because my legs were getting tired but I made it to the other side.

After a few swim skills we went on our backs. I was very nervous because if I went on my back and kicked to the other side, I'll probably hit my head on the wall around the pool, and that would really hurt.

My favourite skill that I did with the instructors was when we did arm strokes to the other side. Also I enjoyed doing stream lining and diving to the bottom while we do stream lining.The skill that I want to complete before swimming is over, is doing laps with my arm stroke without touching the ground.

It was an awesome time swimming with the instructors because I got to learn more on swimming skills than I did before.
