Camping in Kaitata


"Finally we are going camping with our cousins!" I said to my sister and my mum. For me it was my second time camping, my first time was our school camp. When we were on our way to Kaitaia it took a long time (4.5 hour drive). Any way at Shipwrecks Bay almost every day my cousins, sister and I would always play in the water because we were camping on the beach, literally on the beach. Sometimes I had to clean out our tent.
One day when we were playing in the water my cousin Tekerehi told my sister and I that we were water babies because we love swimming. I wonder, do you love swimming? Well back to the story, in the water we played with our boogie boards also our uncle brought some kayaks and they were really fun until I flipped out of the kayak while catching a wave. It hurt but at the same time it was fun.

The day after that we went to Coke-a-Cola lake that was really fun too, if you flapped your arms around in the lake you would see that it looks like fizzy coke.
When it was time to go somewhere (the adults wouldn't tell us) we felt hungry. We wanted fish and chips so we sang the fish and chips song to give them a clue, but sadly it didn't work. Anyway we went to this beach, it had big waves so it was good for boogie boarding. Also my uncle, cousins and I went snorkeling, it was fun. I saw a school of fish and a fish skull that kind of creeped me out.

A while later these things popped up and I didn't know what they were until my cousin Tekerehi thought they were jelly fish. We panicked and my cousin jumped on her dad and I jumped on too but, it was just fish scales. We didn't know that until afterwards.
Soon we had to go back to our camping spot. After a while we had dinner. It was burgers, they were perfect.

It was getting to late so my mum said " Come on darling your sister's asleep" and I said " Oh" and so all of us went to sleep "Zzz".
When we woke up I just sat out side to wacth the sunrise.
That day it was time to go home back to Auckland. I was sad to leave but at the time really happy because of all the fun things we did with my cousins. I love camping and I cant wait to go back next summer.

Funny Immersion Assembly

"Yeah volcanoes" I said to my friend . We went to the hall for an a Immersion Assembly . An a Immersion Assembly is when our teacher introduces our new topic, which this term was called Active Earth. Suddenly Mr Jacobson came inside the hall saying "Everyone calm down". As soon he finished it suddenly became quiet , Mr Jacobson had a backpack filled with gear . Not long after all of the teams had to do an item about Active Earth .

My highlight was team four and their fabulous performance . The host Maggie Magma with her vibrant yellow hair and her beautiful assistant Miss Lava lava and the contestants, Miss Cinders ,Miss lahar and Miss Bionic super sonic electronic In the game show called " Whose smarter than a ten year old " . When they answered questions they popped party poppers and sprayed party strings.


I also liked team Five when miss Tito played miss colarlava a smiler name to Miss Lavakula and Miss Nua acting to be Miss lady lava another smiler name to Lady Gaga , She said she would sing a song and she didn't that was a shame I was really looking forward to it I can't wait to learn more and more stuff about active earth.
