EOTC Week

E.O.T.C week

Eotc week stands for education outside the classroom where we get to do fun stuff.

We went surfing mega air, top teams,  Adrenalin forest.  First we went surfing it was really fun because the waves were really big and we were going so fast and we got Shaka.

Then we went to Adrenalin forest it went really high all the way to the top if you were short you can only go on course 1 and 2 . If you were tall you could go on all of them because you can reach the high rope to hook your hook on. We got this thing to hook on to the steel to use the flying fox and stuff and to keep us safe.

Letter to 25 year old me

At school the teacher told us to write a letter to our future self.
We wrote about our career  and sports career.

• Write a letter to the future me

  • Describe in this letter what your future goals are such as sporting achievements, jobs,

Dear Future Me,

By the time you read this you will be in your 20's. This is a little reminder of what you wanted to do.

Let's start with a career so after college you would go to your job working as a singer. And I also wanted to play in the Canterbury Wildcats with my friend Mikayla and hopefully get a contract with other basketball teams. When I'm done with basketball I would love to travel.

I would vlog my travels on YouTube I would have a company that's all about YouTube and sports all my companions would have there own channels starting with the name of the company. After all my vlogging I would go to play for the WNBA Minnesota Lynx.

Then I will settle down in my mansion with all of my family and 2 kids named Lebron and Iverson and my husband. We will live in the Bay of Islands and meet all the celebs like Zac Efron, Ricky Baker, and much more.

Yours sincerely 10 year old you or me I don't know.

Going camping

Going camping

In the first week of the holidays, we had a family trip to go fishing, diving and camping. We went to Sumner and Kaikoura. I went with Dad, my brother Navarone and my dog Porch. I hoped that it would be sunny and we catched a lot of fish to eat .  We packed everything like blankets and food and other stuff.

Furthermore we drove to Kaikoura it took 1 hour, it was getting dark so me and my dad and brother went to sleep in the car. We woke up the next morning my brother and dad cooked breakfast we had bacon and eggs, with sausages on the side.

Afterwards  we went to a spot in Kaikoura  me and my dad heaved our fishing line over the dock side I caught 4 fish my dad caught 0 fish.  After that we drove  to a diving point my dad and brother started walking  while I was getting ready. The water was really Cold and we picked  3 paua. Finally we packed up and went home. We got in the kitchen and started cooking the fish. My dad ate all the fish and paua then he gave some to the neighbours the end .

Conclusion

I was very proud of how many fish and paua we got. I hope next time we go we will get more. But I got as much fish as I wanted and I finally beat my dad. It was very exciting going to sleep in a car and seeing a seal. I can't wait until we go next holidays.

 Everybody else has chosen other sorts of films. Now we are making posters to promote our movies.
