Bridge Valley Camp

We went to the camp in Bridge Valley.THERE WAS..............a water-slide,a go-cart,a flying fox that went over the lake,orienteering,kayaking,caving and lots more that take too long to write down.My favourite was the water slide,I loved whizzing down,using my hands to make me go faster.I can remember having to go to ballet and missing out on going kayaking But lucky we have a kayak at home.The caving was hot too.So we or I got hot.I got to stay over night because I'm a year 4.

Snow

Snow snow were ever you go

Up your pants and down your skirt

Round your ankles up your knees

Sliding down the snow you go

Rolling snow , dripping snow

Warm and cold , HOT and cold

Tuck up warm , in the snow

Falling down on your skis

Having fun in the snow

We're Going To The SNOW!!!!

Going To The Snow

This weekend my family went to the snow by Lake Rotoiti.We made a big snowman that was taller then me.I was the first one to roll the snow down the hill to make a snowballs that came up to your knee.

We made a bridge across a big puddle that was as the lake.

It was so much fun , the only bad thing was we could not tabogan because there were no slopes to go on.

The Variety Show

A Night To Remember

Places please, five minutes until the curtain goes up!

The Room 10 students in the middle syndicate at Nayland Primary rustle their way to the front of the stage at the Nayland College hall to start singing ‘Wings Of Your Dreams’.

When they have finished the big audience claps as they move back to their places on the stage. Room 7 do their piece.

It is our turn on stage. Keayla, the narrator runs up to the front. I move to my place. As the narrator says her words the glow worms dance starts. Suddenly, I’m not Emma Charles, I’m a glow worm in the night searching for food. Then thunder cracks and trees start to move forward.

Tane (Tom) lifts the sun and life comes to Earth. The rivers come back to their place. Then birds start to flutter through the forest, the music’s funny, so the crowd roars with laughter, then the morepork sound goes on as we move back to our spot. I watch the magic before me.

When the curtain closes I pull off my black rubbish bag. It has been the best night ever!
