Novel Study

In Reading I have been reading a novel called Playing To Win and I done a small summery of the book so far 

Playing To Win (By Fleur Beale)

The Main Character In This Story Is Denny he is a guy that has just moved to Invercargill because his Mum got a job there 

So far I think that the book is pretty good considering I have only read to chapter 4 I think that it will be a good book to continue reading. I think that Denny will end up making it into the rugby team and maybe even become the team captain.

 

My Awesome Holiday

During my holidays I went to Dunedin for my Canterbury team and I was playing hooker that is the position that stands in the middle of the field and passes the ball when someone gets tackled and that's what I played. The tournament I went to was a two day tournament we got to only play four games and we won all four so that meant my team won the entire tournament. The next thing that we done for my holiday was I got to go to  timezone with my mum and three other siblings and we got $20 dollars each on a card. We played for like 40 minutes and I gave all my tickets to my little sister I got around like 150 tickets and gave them all to my sister and then she gave me nothing but it was fun just playing games. 

My favourite thing that I did in my holiday would have to be going to  Mega-Air with my siblings. I liked going there because I wanted to play dodge ball with my siblings so that I could throw the ball at them. But it was really easy to catch the balls because the oldest person in their was probably my sister. Yeah that's my holiday and that is why going to Mega Air was my favourite I really enjoyed my holiday.

Trip To Orana Park

On Monday my class was accompanied by Bh to go to the Orana Wildlife Park  for the whole day we where supposed to depart the school at 8:45 but then we ended up leaving at like 9:45 almost than when we ended getting there at like 10 because it was sort of a long drive when we got there we ended meeting up with a worker there named Bethany I think then we walked around for like 2 minutes then we seen a Meerkat 

Then we walked around for a minute or two seen some farm animals like a Turkey we did not stop we continued walking towards the spider monkeys but they were not out because it was too windy when we had got there so the animals had to stay inside and wait until the wind went down a little so then we went to see the reptiles and it was like a game because we had to find the Gecko's and Tuatara because they were some were staying in their little houses because it was not the right weather for them to come out 

Then we walked out and then we went to go and see the Spider Monkey's inside the enclosure and they all wanted to go outside because they waited at the door for the Zookeeper to open it then we walked off and went over and see some Emu and then seen some farm animals like a huge black rabbit we also saw two pigs.

 

We saw some Lions at the Zoo and they were huge but at the same time they smelt really bad then the lady said that most of the carnivore's smell. I had two favourite animals that I saw and they were the Gorillas because they are big and they just look cool and the other animal would have to be the Meerkats because they look cute my favourite thing that we did was feeding the giraffes. 

Odd Family (Role Play)

In reading this term we have focused mostly on role plays but the difference is that this time we got to make our own play and we got to choose what group we get to be in the people in my group where Vin, Jayden, Nathan, Levi and myself the title Odd Family is because it is a very odd family hence the name that are all special in their own way for example Jack, Vins character is a very special character should we say and yeah I think that my groups play worked out ver very well and I hope that we get to do another play but with a set script
