My favourite moment on Camp 2021 @ Makaraka School (Finlay Park)

Last week our years 5 and 6's went on Camp to Finlay Park to have some fun, and today we were told to write about our most magical favourite moment. My favourite moment at Camp was rafting, this was how it started. We went down on a 20min walk in the boiling hot sun sweating and turning to crisp. When we arrived, everyone rushed to the water to cool off. Then Jo (our instructor) said that we had to choose our teams of three, in my team, there was, Sam, Max Gavin, Rachael, Iyve, Molly and myself. When we started rafting, our team was in first, so I knew we had a good chance at winning. When we got close to the finish line we were still in first and we were BURSTING with excitement. In the end, we ended up becoming the WINNERS of the race, and just before we left on the last day, we earned chocolate for the hard work that we had put into rafting and getting first. All of Camp was REALLY fun but this was the highlight.

Shakeout!

 On Thursday which was yesterday our class did the shakeout practice.

At 9:30 our class heard our teacher blow the whistle, and that meant it was time for the shakeout practice.

I went under the table and held onto it.

Maia Poroaki Blurb (with Miss Moat)

 Once upon a time, there was a strong and fierce man named Maia. But for all his greatness he was ungrateful and selfish. He would always make people help plant his hue when the people were doing the most work, during that he was always so lazy not doing any work for Uenuku. But in the end, he realized that he was doing the wrong thing and that he realized he had to be more aware of people around him more then himself. He turned out to be a man that people would always look up to and his legacy carried on for many generations to come. The end.
