The Official 2018 Expo

As Isaac Newton quote "Each action has a equal and opposite reaction" well till July the 2nd Team 5 had a Expo which was held in the street, usually the students get into groups and decide what to do this year. I was in the Fortknights group yeah yeah it's a cringey name but when you get used to it it'll be fine.

So our theme this year is called Forces of Motion which was invented by the famous Isaac Newton but Forces of Motion is just a law Isaac Newton has 3 laws and we decided to do the last one which is called "Action Reaction" The science behind this theme is "Each action has a equal and opposite reaction"

My group which was Me,Justus and King came up with an idea representing action reaction Justus said " Wait why don't we grab stack of cups and stack it up" I asked him whats the science behind that he explained to me that it was also the third law of Isaac Newton's three laws.


PLANNING DAY FINISHED
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Real Expo day.

Well the time finally came the expo was just at the corner of our street. I got my table set up, got music for comfort and got the most important part of all Nerf Guns. It wasn't long till our first visitors came and asked us what we were doing but when they do come they usually get out saying "Best group ever" I didn't know that our creative fun based idea worked I thought others would be lots more interesting, Here is our staff management Me as a guider which means -  the person who explains our group and what are we doing then we already have King who just was the guy who annoyed us, and Justus our demonstrator.

We were really suprised the numbers of kids that came in it was like we were the most popular group, and the numbers of teachers came in Mr Wiseman,Miss Salu,Miss West,Miss Tapuke and this one lady I forgot the name. I reckon my group was the most successful group in the whole group, having number of kids coming in then going out with happy is really cool. Why I think we were the most successful group is because we weren't like a nerdy boring group, instead we had 1 smart person - Justus and 2 fun workers - Me and King well not really King I'll take him as the annoying person who made us angry.

But yeah this year my group was outstanding

Thank's for reading

Camp Recount


The time came again…… the time were we go through adventurous and unusual activities and to step out of our comfort zone we are talking about the year 8 camp. This happens every year on May the 24th. It was an camp when we step out of our comfort zone and act like a true leader this includes Mihis,Thank you’s and Karaikias even if you weren't a team leader. I reckon I stepped out of my comfort zone.

I was so nervous when I got to camp I couldn’t really tell why, my group was called Thames which was the name of the place but that’s not why you guys are here to read so i’ll skip to my nerve-wrecking activity.

Kookakodadoo the chicken screeched across the field as me and my friends got up and did our Monday routine. “Our activity today was Go-Karts” said Prince* I felt agitated. As we walked on the rocky pathway I could hear the roar of the Go-Kart I thought in my mind “Uhhh Ohhh”-

As I entered the field it looked like a bedroom that hasn’t been cleaned in a year and it also smelled like rotten food I felt disgusted. We got in line I was 2nd because I was too nervous to go first “First one up” said Tyson* the first one up was Taraia VROOM VROOM roared the engine I think Taraia is trying to show off.


The time camed…….. It was my turn I could almost taste draught “Next up” said Tyson in a tauntingly way as if he knew I was nervous. As I walked to the Go-Kart I shakingly put on my helmet “Don’t forget to put on your seatbelt” said Tyson.

RRRAANGOOOO as I sped with the Go-Kart as tears came down my cheeks as I kept my foot on the accelerator “ARRGGGHHHH” I kept bouncing up and down because of the unstable field. When I got to the corner I quickly turn the wheel as fast as I could to try to the a drift SCREEEECH as I turned but didn’t quite do a drift instead I did a donut. It was my second lap and I was going as fast as I could to try to beat Taraia’s time I quickly went around the field normally instead of trying to drift.I got to the finish line I got the timer of exactly 1 minute.

“Here’s your score guy’s” said Tyson “Okay you’re bonus points to try to finish exactly on the finish line and not go over” said Tyson Kosini was the first one to go have a try and made it and scored my team 30 points. Germaine was next but unfortunately didn’t make it he just stopped before the finish line. Then it was me I did my 3 laps and around the corner I stopped early so I can just sit in the middle of the finishing line as my kart was nearly at the finish line until I had this stupid idea to slightly tap it, but it was the worst Idea I tapped it then went over the finish line it was game over for me unfortunately.

Conclusion:

Well that is it, that was my nerve wrecking activity it was fun at Yr 8 camp and I loved the food my favorite food was the Shepard's Pie, Macaroni and the best of all the lava cake it melted in my mouth. Although there were foods that I didn’t like I hated the apple crumble and I couldn’t eat the porridge their was so much milk in it and it killed the taste. My favorite activity has to be the Go-Kart because I pushed myself to do it and it gave me a big laugh at the end my least favorite activity has to be the Railway Jiggers it was boring and went slow I recommend the owners of Kauaeranga Christian Camp should atleast make a few adjustments to fix the rail’s because it was a bit rusty and sometimes the cart would fall off. I really think I pushed myself and gained a lot of confidence. Unfortunately we missed 2 activities we missed flying fox and paintball I was sad to see because flying fox looked really fun watching other groups on it although i was 50/50 with paintball I didn’t want to play cause of getting hit, but wanted to play as well because of the number of game modes their were, but still it was fun. The camp came out with a bang I really enjoyed it

On saturday the 25th of February my mom woke me up to go to the mangere market centre, but I was still tired when I got out of bed I had to get ready Eat,Brush my teeth, shower and change my clothes. When we got ready we got into my van.


When we arrived at the market me and my mom walked to the market while my dad had to get the my brothers ready. In cause if you're wondering I, my mum, cousins and my aunties are making Tongan keke. Then I got ready my mum was doing the keke but I did something different I did the otai.


A few moments ago we opened our shop and then a lot of customers came but not for the otai only a few people came for the otai but I had another place I could go to my aunt's one which is selling soap.


After doing my otai job I went over and did the soap job but I didn’t really do it I just sat down with my cousin and play games on his ipad.

Then we had to clean up cause the market is now finish so we all had to clean the gazeebo's and pack it in the van.

And that’s the first part of my weekend

The   island   of zombies and monsters - My family - Made up story

One day a family of 5 were planning on a trip to a island their names were Jonathon-11 years old, Jaxson-4 years old, Jabal-5 years old,Tolati-2 years old and Nona-42 years old.


Their were thinking which island the’ll go to and they couldn’t decide so they just watched tv then on the television there was this ad, it was a trip to a island called Unknown island, and the price was $10000 for a family of 5.

After the ad finished the family of five got ready. After that they got into we lamborghini and then drove to the airport. Then they arrived at the airport so they got out and went inside the airport. A few minutes later they got into their plane and there were no people their just them, and of course the pilot.


Then they arrived at the island and there were nothing there were no houses and no people to greet them the only thing their was just a road for the airplane to land. When they got out they grabbed their gear and their bags.


Then they said their goodbyes to the pilot. Then they were finding a place to set camp then Jonathon spotted somebody so they followed it, but it was making a zombie sound the family was scared because they were thinking if it was a zombie. Then Jonathon went to it and tapped on its shoulder and then the zombie turned around and they were right it was a zombie.

Then they ran far away but the zombie was chasing them and then when they turned back they saw more zombies chasing them. Then they found this cave and went inside of it to hide from the zombies.


After that they walked around the cave to see if there was a way out then Nona spotted a button and called her sons to come “ Look at this” said their mum Jonathon pressed it and then it opened a secret base and then went inside.


When they got inside the door behind them shut they were wondering what is this place and why were there zombies. Then they found this computer then went on it, but it only had a video on it “ Play it” said Jonathon so they played it and a woman showed up “ Hi my name is Jessica If your watching these then you’re probably on the island and wondering why are their zombies the truth is their were these scientists who tried to create powers but it failed they were so selfish they tried it onto themselves then turned into zombies then killed everyone at the nearby hospital the only way to stop this is to go to the nearby hospital and kill the scientists whose controlling everyone's mind and soon they are gonna control mine there’s this secret armory with guns the bullets are the cure shoot the zombie and then when the suns shines they'll turn human the password to it is 2  9 5 6 7 good luck”



After that they found the armory and putted in the code to open it. When they opened it they grabbed pistols, snipers , sub machine guns and assault rifles and put on their gear “ Jonathon stay with them and guard the door” said Nona “Ok” said Jonathon so Nona ran all the way to the nearby hospitals and shot every zombies that was in her path then she got into the hospitals and founded the scientists she ran out of ammo and had to use the pistol she shot them, but they didn’t turn into zombies straightaway so she kept on shooting them and it didn’t work so the scientists grabbed her and was sucking her mind. Then they dropped her the scientists were dead but Nona was thinking how did they die and then she looked back and saw Jonathon from the cave he sniped them.



Then it was sunrise and everyone was safe and made it back to New Zealand but they forgot somebody it was jessica……

Goals

                            MY GOAL

A goal that I want to focus on is to finish all my writing work how am I going to do this? Well i’m going to make more decisions about who’ll i’ll sit with and focusing on when the teachers is speaking.

                                       MY 2ND GOAL

My second goal is to try and make it in the hot camp. If you are wondering what do you mean by camp? So we have 3 different kind of camps hot,warm and cold the hot camp is the people who are always onto it finishing their work, and only 3 people out of 30 are in the hot camp, warm camp the warm camp is when the people are like “hey i’m going to do my best today” while other days their like “meeh this sucks,” cold camp are when people chicken out everyday or mostly not onto it, doing their own thing except of doing what the teachers asks. So I am going to do this by changing my behaviour when the teacher is speaking.
