At the beach with Nicole and Travis

Before we had started the 20 hour famine we went to the beach for fish and chips YUM YUM!!!
While we were there we played in the sand these photos show Nicoles brother Travis being a mermaid and also him digging like a dog for a sand castle we were making LOL!!!
We all had such a great time making sand castles and digging in the sand.
But the water was extremely cold cant wait for summer to come back.



Home work task The 40 hour famine

On the long weekend me and my friend did the 40 hour famine.
We decided to sleep in a box at the start I thought that it would be great fun but after a couple of hours I was so tempted to get out.We joined the red team and we raised $54.30.
Here are some photos I took during setting up..........

My box it is a bit of a fail  but it look ok in side i think....


 Now this is my tech stuff that I need to keep me entertain (my laptop,alarm clock and ipod)


 This is my lunch box I had made so I didn't get hungry
This is the red team who we joined 


We sleept in a box one sort of like this ps.it was no comfy!!!







I have now finished the 40 hour famine at 1.00pm It was so fun sleeping in a box and also getting to make the boxes.The only dumb thing was that the box keeped braking in the night and then in the morning the box was demented.It was such a fun time and Nicole and I will be getting our money after school during the week.

Swim non stop 1000m

On Wednesday night at five o clock, all the kids that arrived at swimming didn't know that they had long distance swim.Only a couple of my friends and I new so we were all well prepared. My coach Paul told us all when we were all in the water so that we couldn't pull out and go home. Everyone didn't want to do it so they hardly tried.

When I started my heart was pumping hard out I thought that I would forget to count or my goggles would leak. Once I was about half way there I thought that it wasn't hard but I was mistaken it was very hard. The temperature of the pool didn't help either it was really hot. My arms were starting to get weaker and weaker but then I remembered that I only had another 50meters to go.

Once I was done I was red in the face and puffing hard my time was about 20-25 minutes long which was very good because some kids didn't even make it and in the end it felt a lot easier then the last time I had done it because I was fitter and stronger.

My Birthday at rainbows end


Custom Glitter Text


On the 5th of may I went to Auckland for my birthday I went there because my family and I wanted to go to Rainbows end.It was a great experience mostly because I have never been to a theme park before. I went on every ride that was open.The worst ride was the power surge and it made want to power barff but I guess it was kind of fun.....It was a great day until it 

started pouring down with rain.My favourite ride would of had to have been the INVADER and the ROLLERCOSTER.I went on the INVADER 5 times.But we left the best till last the fare fall the only thing was was that it was closed because of lightning and thunder it was so disappointing.





                                                              The ROLLER COASTER


The POWER SURGE (this ride made me feel sick)



                                                                   The INVADER this was the best ride

Net ball trials

NETBALL!!!!

I tried out for netball I did three two and a half hour trilas in the sweltering hot sun.
I got in to the yr 7 C personally I think that is really good because there are so many girls that tried out.
My netball is on every Saturday at 10.50.For our first game out team won 14.2 it was such a great game .I am a shooter and attacker so my positions were goal shoot and goal attack I made lots of goals but my partner Paige was a great shooter and she had never been a shooter before.
