Lego Me

My lego me has paint all over her shirt ,scissors and a paint brush in her hands. My lego me shows my creativity towards my learning. I love art and crafts and I like to present my learning in different ways to make it my own. 
Lego life- In her free time she'll try to find ways on how to make everyday less boring, she'll try to pizzazz anything she can find. She trails off task really easy and sometimes will start day dreaming about random....... uuumm 1. How to take over the world

My bucket list


Quote


This year has gone so fast, it feels like just last week we were heading into our new class room as if no time has gone by, that's how I feel about this quote. Nothing has changed almost everyday is the exact same as the last, but yet everything is different. 

Riddle

If you give me food I will live, if you give me water I will die. What am I?

Deforestation trip

Last Tuesday the deforestation group went to Thames to plant some trees. We met a guy called Derick and he talked us through the cycle to plant trees. First we had to dig a small whole big enough for a young tree, then we sprinkled some growing salt on it. We then put a small pellet inside the whole just to keep it healthy. The last step was to take out the plant and tether the ends of the routs just before placing it in the dirt and covering it up to the stalk. We didn't have to water it because the soil was already soaked with water.
 We planted heaps of trees, some of them were native like the Lance Wood. Altogether we planted 48 trees. After, Derick took us on a walk through a native reserve right next to where we were planting and he showed us a tree that someone had planted, I can't remember his name but he was the first person in New Zealand to recognize global warming as a threat. He told us more about trees like how they release oxygen at night and we do most of our growing at night. Coincidence, I think not.

HP Athletics

I was at HP athletics all ready to got to high jump, at first only a handful of kids showed up but eventually they came. I cleared all the jumps up to 115 cm. Me and another girl who was really good were the only ones who got over it but I started to get really nervous and I crashed on 118 cm over and over and over again until I was out.
That was the worst high jump that I've ever done but I still somehow came second, but unfortunately it's only the op 1 that goes to TV. The girl who came first was really good and her score was 133 cm. The resat of the day I cheered on the resat of our school  and we did really well on our relays. It was a good day.

Athletics

On Monday we had our school athletics. My favorite event is high jump, every year I always come second  because I always use to compete in a year older than all my friends so I was with the older kids, but this year since it was my last year the older kids had gone to collage and this year I came first in high jump. I could jump 127 cm.
After that I had 100 m sprints, the first heat was off and just looking at them running made me more nervous, when it came to my heat we had to restart 3 times before we where off and running. In the end of that race I came 4th. The 100 m finals came up and this time we had to restart 5 time( thanks to Edell, haha) but in that race I didn't get a placing.
Up next, long jump. the first time I jumped I fell over before i could jump, I tripped on the mat and stumbled along the sand. The second time was a no jump because my foot was off the mat when I jumped, the last time I jumped was the best so far, but knowing me I stuffed it up; I fell backwards and my hands lay at the start of the sand pit
. Now at shout put, lets not even go there...  haha. in one event some how I hurt my foot, it was swollen ad bruised so I had to sit out the rest of my races. And that was the end of athletics at NPS
