Day 1 of Camp

Day one camp was an experience for all of us. First, we went to Whangarei to have a quick lunch break and toilet break, after lunch we went straight to the Waitangi treaty grounds for a waiata at the marae. But before that we meet Chris and Magnus, We played a little game so that Chris, Magnus and the other tourists could all know what our names were.

 Then we went to the marae for a welcoming powhiri, After the powhiri, they performed a little item for us. Then we walked to James Busby house, we learnt a lot of information about James Busby. We saw some of the things that he had left in his house.

After seeing James Busby house we went to the worlds biggest waka. Before that, we went to the face of the boat and did a hongi. After seeing the waka we went to a small museum to learn about the treaty of Waitangi, we learnt a lot about the treaty of Waitangi.

After that, we went to the bus and started another journey to the fairy to Russell. Then we headed to our campsite, When we got there we unpacked our stuff and played a little scavenger hunt. Then we went into the common room for dinner, after dinner, we went for a shower then headed to our cabins to rest for the next day.

Dear Miss Elia

Thank you, Miss Elia, for always being there for me. To me, you have been at this school for 7 years. You are a very kind and generous person. To acknowledge the things you have done for me like planning trips for us and other special things that mean a lot to me. You have helped me with my work and helped me to be more confident in speeches and around others. The best moments I have had with you was when we always had a good laugh and talk about me graning my confidence and always telling me I can do the things I can't do. I have had a very good time with you miss Elia. It will be very emotional to see you go. Last of all, thank you miss Elia for supporting me in everything you have done. I hope you enjoy your travels and your retirement. Stay healthy and safe on your travels. Thanks you

Yours sincerely - Bianca Tua

Maths reflction

Today in maths I have been learning about decimals.

We also learnt about decimal tables that are in the order of Hundreds, Tens,

ones

then it goes on to tenths, hundredths and thousandths.

The thing that was was interesting was learning more

I really enjoyed learning decimals.

Reading toitoi book with PWC

Today the PWC( Price waterhouse cooper) people came to our class room. Their names are Charlotte, Venice, Breanne, Lee and courtney. They all came to talk about the new book from toitoi.

Toitoi is a company that creates new books with different types of arts and stories. Kids from other schools submit there art work and writings to toitoi so toitoi can publish in the toitoi books.

During reading the toitoi book we read six storys called  bright furture, A narrow escape, Wild conditions, New school, broken city and grief. We all enjoyed read and had lots of fun with Lee and also reading the toitoi book.

PWC stands for price waterhouse cooper and are working with the financial literacy. My favourite story in the toitoi book was Wild condition and A narrow escape.
