The Lie

Last week for writing we had to think of a lie that people have said of you then we had to think of the truth an we had to write it. this is my Lie.

25 year letter

This week I have been writing a letter to the future me we had to include every thing you wanted to do as a 10 year old here is my story.

Dear Future ME,

By the time you read this many years will have passed.  In fact you will be turning 25 years old.  This is a little reminder of what your goals and dreams were as a 10 years old.

Let's start with your career. You wanted to do good at school and go to university. To be a Doctor and save peoples live and hope that they live healthy.

As you are aware, you are really passionate about playing sports especially basketball. You wanted to play for the Canterbury Wildcats and hope to get a provisional contract for the Minnesota Lynx.

You have 3 places you would like to go Miami, Hollywood, New York. You would have lovely hotels with spas and then you would make yourself feel like home.

Then you go back to your home in Christchurch and live your days.

Yours sincerely

10 Year Old Me

Vacation

Thursday 24th of November we had to pick a dream place to go on a holiday and I picked Miami. I had to find flights, accommodation, attractions and restaurants to go to and I had a budget of $17,000.
I also found out interesting facts about Miami, about a sports team and a famous person.
I researched about the flag, currency, population and leader.
I hope that you learn something about Miami. 

Earthquake ALERT!!

Last night 14th of November there was a 7.5 earthquake in New Zealand It started in Hanmer Springs and felt in Kaikoura Wellington and Christchurch It was massive. If you want to get through Kaikoura I will tell you that your not going any where same with  Hanmer Springs because the roads are blocked with rocks and dirt. Here is a picture of the damage to the road.


If an earthquake happens to you follow these steps it will help you survive but if there is no table you do the turtle. Make sure you place your hands on your neck because it is more in portent then your head. Also don't freak out if there is a earthquake stay calm and someone will get you out safely.

Heath and Nutrition

This term we have been learning about Health and Nutrition. So this week we have been learning about food labels. We were given an empty food packets and we had to write down how much sugar is in it. We had to see at the end if it was healthy or not. We also worked in groups my partner is Kea and we were given the Banana Frooze Balls and we figured out it was healthy. Also to be healthy you need to keep eating healthy. I hope this encourages you to stay healthy and have chocolate as a treat like once a week. I hope you enjoy my post. Bye.

Swimming day out

On Tuesday, the second week of the school holiday, my brother Kody and I, went to Oscar because my Mum and Dad were at work so we had no one to look after us. Everyday we did something and on Tuesday we went swimming at Rolleston pool because Oscar wanted us to have fun. The Oscar leaders are Marie, Ashley, Kearin and Brad. They were amazing!

Story:

When we got to the pool we were told the rules and after that we got changed and then went out to the pool and put our bags away. Next we put goggles on if we needed them.

After all that I was allowed to jump into the big lane pool, it was freezing Kea and I kept jumping off the diving board until we were so cold we went into the warm pool. It was so nice and warm and toasty.

In the warm pool there was a lazy river I would just lie down on my back while it would push. I would keep on going round and round until I got dizzy then I hopped out and was so dizzy I fell over.

After that lazy river we got out of all the pools and got changed after we got changed we got to eat I was starving and then we left.

Conclusion

I was happy and so Lucky to go swimming and I hope I can go again with my mum, Isla and Fin.
