beach clean up

Hi bloggers!!

On Friday the 27th of September we went to Waikowhai Bay to clean it up. We went to the beach the same day as the big climate change march. We couldn't go to the climate march so we wanted to do something instead. We decided to clean up our local beach or bay. We didn't go because we went the last time at and it was less crowed but that one had 1000's of people. Before we left we got to get our climate change signs we made for the last climate change march.
We stopped outside of school and chanted a chant which is "Hey Hey Ho Ho climate change has got to go" Heaps of people beeped at us and waved. 

We walked down to the beach and got into groups of five, six or seven and then we were given gloves and a parents to go with. Miss Najack took our signs and put them in her car before we left to clean. My group was Nikhil,Ehsan,Indie, Yousuf,Toby, Faris and me and our Parent was  Ms Daly. We found heaps of things there like Clothes, Plastic bottles, fishing nets, metal nets and we even found a pare of Hand cuffs. We found heaps more but we couldn't pick up everything. We had to go back but before we went back we took photos. Once we were done we had to go and give the rubbish to the teachers and then leave. We walked back to school and got back at 2:00pm. It was so fun my favourite part was climbing up the ledges of the beach and picking up the rubbish that was up there. The only challenging thing was walking back because we had to go up the big hills. When we did get back to school we played and had a ice block. Then the bell rang for the end of the term but before we all left we sang happy birthday to Mrs Jones because it was her birthday the next day. . Other people got her cards to.Here are some photos

I hope you enjoyed my blog post

See you next time.

holiday narratives

Hey there bloggers!

 Last term we have been writing narratives about our holidays. We sort of did a recount but we exaggerated it and turned it into a narrative. At first we did a plan in our books using a mountain. The bottom of the mountain was your starting sentence then a little up the mountain was a problem then at the top of the mountain was the climax (the worst part of the problem). After the climax there was the resolution(a little down the mountain) the part where you fix your problem. And lastly there was the ending. I really liked doing these narratives because I could use my imagination to create something that is worth reading. Unlike recounts everyone thinks they're boring.

Here is a bit of my story

On the day of camp we had to get to school at 7:30 and meet our group color in the junior block. By this time my heart was pounding and I was extremely excited. Click to continue  my narrative.
