Biking Skills

 Hi Bloggers

On the 23rd of November Hauraki did there biking skills.  Our two teachers for the lesion was Holly and Chelle .At first I thought it would be boring but it turned out to be fun. Frist they talked all about the helmet they had some unsafe helmet to show what is bad and told us what we need to have on it and what we need to check before putting the helmet on and biking or skateboarding and more. So then this was when we got started with the bikes but before that they ask who is super confident with biking and who is not so then the one of the teachers took my group and the other teacher tock the other group. My group learnt how to do the ABCD checklist before going on the bike and riding away. A stands for air in the wheels, B stands for brakes, C stands for control and chains and then D standed for drop test. After a little the teacher tested us with our braking skills so she told us that we had to ride to a line and try to make the front wheel on the line without putting your foot down. My favorite part of the lesson for me was probably the turtle race and the box and turbo box. It was so Fun!!!!

For the second lesson we did like the same thing. But this lesion left more fun but I did not know why. But what we did do that we did not do in the other lesion was follow the leader on the field. It was really tiring because it is hard to ride on grass. When we played the box game I  finally beat Ari and I was so happy because he is really really good at biking.

Skateboarding

 Hi bloggers

Today the 20th of November, Hauraki did their skateboarding lessons. Our coach's names were Ben and Laurence.  First our warm up was laps around both of our school courts then we got split into 2 groups. After that we did another warm up but in our groups one of our warm ups was about balance. Then next we got the skateboard and started to do the tick - tack. After that we tried to walk on the skateboard and how you do it is you put one of your foot on the nose and the other on the tail then lift one foot then slide the side that has been lifted. My favourite part of the lesson was something like we put our feet under the skateboard. But the skateboard is facing down and then you have to flip it and jump at the same time and try to land it. It was too easy. Then I did the same thing but I had to jump and do the 180 and I land it and then I tried 360 but I did not land it but I was so close.  My other favourite part was what's up wolf pack game and I won both rounds and for the last part of the skateboarding lesson we got to do whatever we wanted on the skateboard. It was so fun!!!!

For our second session we did similar stuff but not all of the stuff  we did in the other session. We did do the balancing and when the skateboard is facing down and you have to jump on it. but it was even more fun because we played whats up wolf pack but way more times than the last session. Also we had more free time. I asked one of the coaches what is your hardest tricks and then he did it and then said " easy!" After that when we got our free time he tried to a trick and missed and I bet that was has hardest trick to do. Wow after that I felt like skateboarding should be my thing. here are some pictures of the day.

Production !!!

Hi bloggers.

On the 4th, 5th, 6th of November we did our school production at Waikowhai intermediate. In our productions we have a theme to it and this years theme was Aladdin but in most of our productions we have changes to it like for example if it was Peter Pan we might make Peter Pan go on a adventure around the world instead of him staying in his own country. But for this year it did have changes and the name had changed is well instead of it being Aladdin it was Aladdin and Jasmine and in the story one of the changes was when Omar sent Gewiz (Omar's assistant)  to send Aladdin's boat a drift at night because that was were Aladdin stayed for the night and then Aladdin was stuck at the bottom the the sea in a fishing net. And when the scene change each class from our school does their class dance. My favourite dance is probably Haumia, I liked their dance and their song which was Roar. Our class dance was called R.E.S.P.E.C.T  and I really like that song is well. I was back stage and in the item (class dance). Some of the funny bits of the production was like when Jasmine said "I want to go travel the world go one my O-E" and then some one in the crowd said "Are the borders open?".

Garden to table

 Hi bloggers

This year the senior syndicate got to eat broccoli/cauliflower with cheese source. We got the broccoli and cauliflower from the senior gardens that we planted at the start of term 2. I was one of the first group to eat it, but I did not know what was going on until I saw a  hot     pot of the cheese source and then I saw broccoli and cauliflower. Then I was like in my brain, It is going to be delicious and as I thought it was. Then I saw more people coming when I left and I told them how yum the broccoli/cauliflower with cheese would be.

Wonder Project!!!

 Hi bloggers 

On Wednesday 16th of September we had Wonder Project after along break from it because of lockdown. I was very excited about it when I saw it on the board. For that session we got to launch our first bottle rocket and I was even more excited about the Wonder Project. Every body was excited because whenever they were pumping the air in the bottle they would start counting down. But sadly the pump did not work so then we had to launch it at 30 psi.  But it did launch but it did not go as high as we thought sadly. But everybody was still happy with  height it went and that was the session for that day.

Basketball

Hi blogger commenters
This week on Wednesday we did basketball as our kiwi sport. I was very happy to do basketball because I like playing it. The people who were teaching my school were called Mikey and Ronan. They where a bit bossy at the start and they lied to my class, They said that if Mikey can get the ball off my teacher then we can punish them but if Mikey did not get the ball off then they can punish us. Then Mikey got the ball of my teacher but then he said " ok today's lesson is over" then he said " we are to nice and we are not going to punish your teacher" There was one game that I loved the most at the end of the lesson I am not sure what it is called but there is one person in the middle with the ball and the other is trying it get the ball of and if the person that is trying to get the ball off and he does in ten seconds then that person who got it off starts with the ball and trying to make sure that the other person did not get the ball off. But if the other person that has the ball keep the ball with him for ten seconds that means that he is still in the middle of the circle protecting the ball again for ten seconds. It was very fun doing the basketball and I got used to Mikey. Thanks for seeing my blog.
