Camp Reflection

Camp 2018- Mistletoe Bay
Last week we went to Mistletoe Bay in the Marlborough Sounds for camp. We didn't enjoy the 5 and a half hour drive though! We really enjoyed camp! We went on a sailing boat, did archery, went paddle-boarding and had really fun fishing and hanging around on camp.







- We even caught a starfish!

Reflection T1 Week 1 & 2

Hi.
The school holidays went really fast. I visited Wanaka & Timaru. I did around 70 kms on my bike. I traveled 13 hours in the car. 

These couple of weeks have been about knowing stuff about other people. And we also have already finished 1 piece of art. This is it.
We also have made acrostic poems. Then we made 2 examples. These are mine.

I chose surfing and cricket because, 1 I have been surfing for 3 years and I love surfing. Next I have enjoyed playing backyard cricket over the summer and I enjoy watching cricket. 

Thanks for reading my first blog post for 2018, also enjoy Brisbane Global 10s this weekend.

Summer Learning Journey 2017-2018 Day 5 Bonus Activity

Blade runner 2049.
Today's question was to write a description of New Zealand in 80-90 years from now.We had to describe; what we will eat, where would we live and what jobs would we have This is my description.

Where we will live?
We would live in floating cubes that comes down when you want, we will have underground garages. The houses will be 50 meters by 50 meters because it is a cube. Kitchens will be controlled by robots who will overcook your food. Showers will be like a  Human car-wash it will soap you spray you and dry you. Your bed will be electric, it will be called a sandwich bed. It makes a mould of your preferred sleeping position and will leave you room to manoeuver.

What jobs will we have?
The chance of having a job is 0.99 % Because Google will make working robots. Although I do not think robots are waterproof, so that leaves swim instructors, marine biologists and that is really it.

What will we eat?
In 2099 I do not think we will have animals or grass. We will eat robot meat, lab produced meat and vegetables. Everything will be cleared to make one gigantic city. So no fresh; crops, meat, fish, veges. Robots will cook and possibly overcook your food, which means no one will do anything for themselves, so they just become marine biologists or swimming instructors.

Other thoughts.
Robots will take over parliament and emergency services. Cars will still take people places but not with driver. Sport will be no longer (unfortunately). People won't watch TV, they will be plodding round on phones the size of a smart TV. Kids will have the choice of going to school (which will be taught by robots) or have surgery on your brain to have all information of the world inserted into your head, and we will have a 30 billion Albert Einsteins.

Summer Learning Journey 2017-2018 Day 1 Activity 1

Celebrating a win
Our activity today was to explain what our family does when they celebrate a special event, like birthdays. 



In my family we celebrate birthdays. In the summer break is when I have my birthday. We celebrate this by me getting up at 7:00 to have a birthday breakfast (if this was my mum's it would be in bed!) but I have mine at the table with my family. We celebrate by giving gifts, this year I was very lucky and I received what I really wanted. I often have my friends come over (if we aren't away camping) This year we went to the pool and had lots of fun. Another way we celebrate is by my mum and dad making a birthday cake. This year it was a mountain biking themed one. I used lego people for fans of a biker who was on a lego bike. It looked really cool. I know I am lucky to celebrate my birthday the way that I do.
