Swimming

This term we have been going to Dudley pools. There's 4 groups. There are 3 proper pools, 2 spas and I think 1 swirly pool. It has been so fun. Our swimming class is room 6. The big pool is so deep. There's like a step half way through so you can stand on it, so you don't drown. I am in a group with Sammi R., Lydia, Rutger, and Nic. We do stuff like breast stroke, free style and back stroke and dives as well.Last week we got to

dive and try to get a giant ring but it was up to us we got to chose what on we did i did a stand up dive we could do kneel or sit or stand dive we do swimming every thursday.

Haiku

Last week we have been learning about Haiku. A Haiku is a type of poem. On the first line it has 5 syllables and the second is 7 and the last is 5. Here's mine:

At the golden bay

The puppies are being born

On a Sundy night .

Australia

In 12 days I am going to Australia.

I am very excited to be going and I get 200 dollars.

Im going to be there for 8 days.

It will be so much fun.

I will go on lots of rides and go lots of places.

I am really happy.

IB CHALLENGE

Woodend School has just started a new home-work program, this is called the IB challenge. It is optional whether you do it or not so we call it home learning. There are 4 sections. They are: thinking, self-managing, team-players and creators. There are 24 challenges all together, that makes 6 in each group. Lots of people have decided to do it and I am one of them. It is lots of fun. Some people have already done some. When we finish all five (or more for the seniors) you get a badge that says you have done it. By Ashleigh.

Anger

Anger is red like a red evil apple.

It tastes like a bright red poisoned apple.

It smells like a burning house in the dark dark forest.

It looks like people fighting.

It sounds like people having a really bad day.

It feels like poison having a party in my body.

And it is very spooky.

Wind

Wind is white like snow.

It tastes like saltwater from the ocean.

It smells like the rotten seaweed from the sea.

Wind looks like a flash of speed.

And sounds like the ocean.

Wind feels like a large fridge on top of you and makes you cool.
