Rock climbing

Rock Climbing.

Excited as ever, my class and I  walked into the doors of the rock climbing manchon. We all sat on the most extremely comfortable chairs ever.  Yeeeeeeeeees!!! I got to the top of the first rock climbing wall, even though it was the easiest wall to climb. We were at flax rock having the time of our lives. We were having the first day of camp on the 22/4/2014.

The second climb looked alot harder and everyone said it was very hard. I waited till it was my turn which took a while. While I was waiting I looked around to see what I could do next, I saw Ryleigh getting to the top and everyone started shouting Ryleigh, Ryleigh, Ryleigh, so I started joining in. She got to the top. She put both hands on the rope and Mrs Hardaker lowered her back down the rock climbing wall.

It was my turn now and I was determined to get to the top. It was easy at the start but as it got higher it got a lot harder. There were less rocks and my arms were aching more and more the further I got up. My dad was at the bottom so I wanted to make him proud of me. I couldn’t make it. My arms were aching. I tried to grab the next rock but it was too far. I put my foot on a higher rock and then I went to grab the next hand hole but it was still too high. I did what I had to do. I was wedged in the chimney so I put my left foot on the back and my right foot on the front and then my hands to the side and started climbing and you know what, It worked, I got to the top.

It was mint! I would come back any time any day.

The Luge

The luge!!!

Whoooosh!!! I went like thunder down long twisty track. full speed down the straight  I went down the track, still there was not enough speed to pass my dad. I knew the loop was coming up but my dad didn’t I still went at almost full speed I turned as tight as I could but I span out My dad go way away from me now I would never catch up to him now. I remembered the short cut It was very steep but it would get me lots of speed. I took the shortcut  I was going way too fast and then slammed into dads side. We both spun out and we both couldn’t get going again. dad got going but then bumped me and gave me a boost, just enough to get me going it went zooming down the track again I saw that dad was right behind me I got to the last corner but then slammed to the edge .

How trees were created

How trees got created

Long long ago over 1,000 years ago Tane Mahuta was traveling across the land with his 6 brothers (Tu, .Taronga, Ruamoko, Rongo, Tawhirimatea and Humia). And then hears a message from someone creepy, he looks around but no one was there. He goes to talk to his mother about it and she said “it would be another god”. She senses thats its Tawhiri. “ Check on Tawhiri also see if it is him, if not, Sorry to waste your time”.

Tane mahuta went back that night to see what it was, but it wasn’t Tawhirimatea it was a tree the first tree Tane mahuta the tree was dying tane then rushed to his mother but before he started running to his mother he thought no I must save the tree before it dies he nels down next to the tree “now how do I save you little tree “ tane said

He touched the tree and it got better

He touched it again and it had grown into a big tree

He touched it again and it dropped billions of seeds on to the ground

He touched it again and then all the other trees grew.
