the suitcase

On the 23rd of march in 2010 I went off for a long journey. The scorching sun was burning me like a oven, sweat was running down my face all day long. Freddy was walking down the hill to find water but suddenly I heard a rumble in the distance. 

 

Heart rate

What is heart rate??? Heart rate is when your heart beats and you time it. It is measured to see if your heart is beating normal or badly.


When you exercise your breathe and your heart beats faster so it can pump more blood around your body to keep you moving

What is the normal heart rate for someone my age-show how the calculation is worled out: The normal heart rate for a 12 year is 70-110bpm for girls and boys. A basic way to calculate it is get 220 and minus your age off it. That answer would be your maximim heart rate.

Room 43

Yesterday the satellite children moved into their new class because a few weeks ago there was a fire      and their old classroom got burnt down. A group of 5 people including me got to see and meet the children in room 43 I got to meet all the adults and the children Bobby gave us a tour around the class.

Weekend

Surprisingly my netball team came first in a netball tournament yesterday we won all our games. There were four 24 minute games our second game was against the Tauranga Intermediate 8C team It was a very close game 14-11 to us they were coming first In the B grade but we bet them so we took there place.


On saturday I played my normal saturday netball game we won 60-3 we were playing against pap college 8B you'll find it hard to believe but I shot 56 goals and to tell the truth our first goal was
in the first 20 seconds.

Unfortunately one of my team mates got elbowed in the face so her lips were bleeding on the day of the tournament, our coach and their coach had a huge argument.

Camp

I'm proud that I did the beam because I am scared of heights and the beam was about 20 meters high. Mrs Shepard told some people that they had to do a push up on the beam I'm glad I wasn't one of those people!

When group 3 were mountin biking up a hill. One of my team mates called Kye forgot to put his feet on the ground when we got up to the top so he fell of his bike down the little bank surprisingly he didn't get hurt because there a lot of dry grass It made me laugh because he just fell straight down on his side.


Believe it or not I screamed every time I heard something in the burma trail especially when there was a  possum hanging from the tree when you walked pass, or when David turned on the chain saw, or when the adults scared you, or when Gen would hide behind the tree and when you walk pass he would hold your top of your arm.


The biggest challenge for me would be doing the vertical play pen because it was very slippery when group 3 did it!! The hardest bit was trying to get both your feet in the tyre and trying to get right up to the top I only got up to the first tyre i early got up to the beam but I ran out of time sadly.


The tastiest thing that I had to eat would be when my cooking groupe cooked Nacho's with a side
salad and for desert we had yoghurt,peaches,blueberries,cream, and marshmallow's all mixed together
It's called ambrosia and for the drink we had orange juice.

The most rewarding thing for me would be doing the posties walk and abseiling because I am scared of heights and posties walk was very high so was abseiling last year it was only 10 meters high this year it was 20 I really didn't want to do it but I did and I am very proud of myself for doing it.
