Quick write- A time with my friend!

My friend and I walked and walked along the path leading up to a miniature waterfall. We weren't planning on going swimming, but we ending up sticking our heads in the waterfall. The water was icy cold, the rapids were strong, they were leonine. We raced to the waterfall but soon came to an electric fence, we jumped over them, we were determined to go for a swim on a boiling day. We dipped our toes in the water, we pulled back we need photos. The waterfall was too beautiful to leave without a photo.

The first week of the holidays I didn't do much. Dad fixed Rose-elles and my bike so then we could go for a bike ride with Thomas. Once they were ready we went for a bike ride (this was late at night).The next day Dad took Thomas, Rose-elle, and I fire wooding we got stuck in the prickles and then the radiation hose blew so Dad had to fix it but he didn't have the tools. Luckily we had bottles of juice so Dad just cut open one and temporarily fixed the radiation hose. We left for fire wooding at 11am and got home at about 8pm. The next week was more interesting. We were going to go to Hokitika for the day, but Holly (my sister) called Mum and said that Tyson (my 1 year old nephew) was in hospital. Elizabeth and Thomas still went to Hokitika. Mum stayed at the hospital with Holly and Tyson for the day, Matt (Tysons Dad) went fire wooding so Rose-elle and I looked after Sapphire (My 4 year old Niece). We walked around for a bit then had lunch, we called Mum to come pick us up and take us back to Holly's house, once we got there I went back to the hospital with Mum. Tyson was not aloud out of his hospital room since he was in isolation. He stayed at the hospital for 3 nights. Mum, Rose-elle, Thomas, and I all stayed at Holly's to help out. I also went for some horse rides through the holidays.

On Friday Rose-elle and Shohn went to Easter Camp for the whole weekend. Elizabeths friend came over for 1 night then they went to her house, so it was just Dad, Thomas, and I at home. Dad took us to get Easter eggs on Saturday and that night we watched a movie. On Sunday Thomas and I built mini houses in the gardens so we both had separate gardens and we could use 1 thing from inside and the rest we had to use things from outside. We got Dad to judge us. The thing I used from inside was a bowl and Thomas used a pot. We used them for pools. Dad said that we both won because we both had very different things. On Monday Dad had work Elizabeth came home. Tyson got dropped off at our house for the day. Later that day Mum came home with Shohn and Rose-elle and Tyson went home. On Tuesday we went to town. We went to Holly's house for a bit and had lunch with her, Sapphire got a Easter egg pack with hair chalk so she asked me to colour her hair. We went home and just relaxed.

On Saturday Dad, Thomas, Rose-elle, and I went to moonlight hall to be marshals for the triathlon and biathlon. We stood at a certain place to guide everyone to go the right way, and make sure the walkers were walking not running or jogging. On Sunday we just stayed home watching T.V and I read most of my book in my new hut that I built. That night we stayed up to watch movies. 

Metaphor poem about my family!

For home links I did a metaphor poem about my family

Dad is a Lion, king of the jungle, protecting his pride

Mum is a handbag holding everything we need handing out her knowledge

Shohn is a cheetah racing through the meadow

Connar is a race car once he starts he will finish

Elizabeth is a pencil when she touches the paper  there is nothing stopping her

Rose-elle is a book filled with excitement, knowledge, and joy

Emily is a warrior fighting all the challenges in her way

Thomas is a remote controlling the way he learns

Dad is a tool box with everyone in it to fix anything

Mum is a lioness caring for her cubs and loving them

The Ross family is a flock of birds, a pack of wolves, and a pod of dolphins we will always stick together.

When we got home Mum and Dad went back into town and Thomas and I went to watch the rugby, Blues vs Hurricanes the Hurricanes won. After the game we got home Thomas went to bed and I packed my bag for a survival camp for Sea Scouts. On Saturday I went to the survival camp. It was freezing last night because we weren't aloud our sleeping bags. Me and Drayden walked from our huts to the fire at 3am and stayed there until it rained. On Sunday I went to bed after my shower and then woke up at lunch. Elizabeth and I watched a movie on Netflix until Thomas had to go to bed.

Autobiography

In Ruma J we wrote an autobiography poem so then the class can get to know each other better. To put more color on the walls Miss J thought we could draw our hand prints on some art paper then ruler some lines on the paper overlapping the hand prints. We put water pants in all the white spaces and some people used light, dark, and bright.

Friday night Mum, Bob, Thomas and I went to the crusaders and hurricanes game at rugby park. The game was really good. The end score was 22-44 to the hurricanes after the game everyone ran onto the field and got the players to sign somethings like books, hats, flags, shirts. I got my hat signed and Thomas got a photo with a crusader and his flag signed. On Saturday Breagh came over and her Mum took us to town and dropped us off at the movie theater to buy movie tickets for the maze runner. Her Mum went home so Breagh and I were in town together alone. We walked to McDonalds to have some lunch and Tylar and his family was there so they came over to sit with us and we talked for a bit. Breagh and I walked to the movie theater and watched the movie, we both ended up crying at the end of the movie. Once the movie was finished and we walked to my sister's house we Breagh's Mum picked us up. Sunday we took Breagh home and Monday and Tuesday were relaxing days

Summer learning journey (bonus)

I would like to be in a Waka Ama race one day because it would be something different and challenging. I would also like to be in a Waka Ama race because I am apart of Sea Scouts so I do a lot on the water, so I have raced on the water before and even if we lost I still loved it. It would be a great experience and great fun even if I lose or win.
