Ngā Nama Ki Te Kotahi Rau

Harold and Lynn

After morning tea room 13 were lining up outside of Harold and Lynn's caravan, Lynn opened up the door we all came inside and sat down. Lynn talked to us about our feelings, we looked at happy, sad and nervous Pictures Lynn gave room 13 some cards and told us to put them on the wall and I was one of them.


After learning about feelings Lynn was explaining body parts it was fun, what I learned about was that under your stomach is a little and big intestine, how cool is that! But after that, Lynn brought out Harold the giraffe room 13 did a huge shout and at the same time we said hi Harold! I joined in, Lynn was talking to Harold and Harold said to the class that we should have a wriggle jiggle it was kind of long.


After the wiggle jiggle we were still learning about feelings, straight after that Lynn showed us a video of a little boy called billy he was Lynn and Harold's friend it. Was really long but it was quite interesting of what we were learning about but what. I really want to say is thank you Harold and Lynn for teaching us about feelings and other stuff, room 13 would love to learn heaps more, thanks!

Toby's time at Rock climbing

kia ora my name is Toby, have you ever been to rock climbing before, well if you haven’t you should come along and enjoy it. Rock climbing is a place where people climb different obstacles, you have a harness strapped to you. Which makes you safe because if you let go, you will come slowly and safely down.

          

One  day when my father, noah and levi were off snowboarding on the mountain when me Jordan and my mum were having a walk around Ohakune which is the name for the town and at the town we found a place that had rock climbing in the back room, so me, Jordan and my mum walked inside the place and went to the back room where the rock climbing was, the room was only with a little amount of people.

When we were still looking of what was going on a lady popped up and said’’hello would you guys like to go in and have a climb, she said, my mum replied and said’’ yes, it costed us 30 $ but me and Jordan were excited! The lady took us into a room and told me and Jordan to put a harness on ourselves, it would keep us safe from just falling down and crashing onto the floor.



When me and Jordan were  ready, the lady said to us’’you may go in, so we did, me and Jordan tried out different obstacles it was totally fun we took lots of photos but one time on that day me and Jordan decided to have a race and I thrashed him, after the race Jordan was so angry that he lost.                                                




Here is some pictures

Toby's amazing story

Ki ora, and hello have you ever been to Mount Ruapehu, well if you haven't you should come along and enjoy the adventure.


Ohakune is a town  where people sometimes live in but most of them live in baches which are holiday houses. We stayed in a cool one, there was a spa and a sweet TV.
The house was also humungous. 


The trip took us 5 hours to get there. It was quite cool in the car since me, Noah and my mum were eating biscuits and listening to the car music. 



When we got there, our family unpacked the car with all our stuff in it. The next morning I woke up and awoke Jordan since the other night we had a deal that whoever wakes up first will have to wake up the other person.


 Together we watched TV, until Noah came along and joined us. But as soon as we finished a TV show named Generator Rex my dad told us to turn the TV off.


When I was finished putting my snowboarding gear on, I had a little play outside until we had to go to the mountain and snowboard down it.                  
Here's a picture of the mountain:
 












I've been learning S's which you first snowboard down but at the same time you make the letter S all the way down the mountain, on the curves of the S you do heels and toes.



One time you should try snowboarding or skiing?
