YOUTH PRIDE HOLIDAY HIGHLIGHT!!

“RRRRRR” The whistle blew as our leading mentour Mike gathered everyone for our first youth pride holiday programme since Last year in December!!! It was a good time to catch up on things!!!! I was so eager to play more games but, we split up into two groups, boys and girls and were forced to introduce ourselves so that we got more courage for when speaking up front. Finally this little ( so called activity ) was over!!! Ready and split into 4 groups our day was set. I was in group three ( called Price Tag ) with Aidan and Nathaniel and I had a fair Idea of what to expect....FUN!!!!!


Our first team activity was set, but sadly it was on of my worst....’ The Shape game’. In this game Mike ( the programme runner ) would call out either letters or shapes to make. our first shape was an H and quickly followed by a capital Q!!! We aced through this activity only to be faced with some of the hardest shapes ever.....First up a car!!!!! We didn’t finish first but that didn’t bother us because this time we had to have good presentation!!!! It was time to mark us and we had a funny window wiper connected and got an extra 50 points!!! 150/100 and no suprisingly we won!!!!!! Secondly we had to make a church!!! Again extra points for good detail, after adding a door to our church!!! Again a win!!! 4 out of 4 in this challenge!!!

“ YAHHHH” the voices of the kids shouted when we were given the news that it was free time!!! So me and Matthew ( my best friend ) picked up a basketball and played around the world. I started dozing off when Matthew started creaming me!!! So as a sore loser I walked away and played to with another school friend of mine Dominiq. Matthew joined and we played an enjoyable game of touch!!! “ Lunch in five minutes” Mike explained!!! Boy was hungry!!! But we still had a game of touch to finish!!! The was five tries all!!! Beau put up a kick for Lepa and.... It was a try!!! Sadly I was on the losing side. But on the positive side we still had fun!!! “Man I’m hungry!!” I groaned......

All lined up in in our four teams it was time for lunch!!!! Team by team we entered the kitchen to receive our food!!! On the menu was sausage sizzles and fish burgers!!! “ Mmmmmm” I had already one skofed down my stomach and I was bound to have seconds!!! I was waiting for Mike to call out for seconds!!! “Line up if you want seconds!!!” I pushed my way to the front with my stomach still eager to digest more food!!! I took an AWESOME fish burger and then I was slightly full!!!! With the programme about to wrap up again, I had one more shot at goal and straight over!!!!!

With out a doubt this holiday programme was the best that I’ve been to!!!! sadly we wont see each other until December this year!!!! This has been the best two weeks of my life!!! “PLEASE COME BACK SOON YOUTH PRIDE!!!!”

Translation drawing!!!

This term in Maths, we have been learning about Translation in Geometry. Coming into this activity of translation I had no idea of what it meant!!! But now I do!!!! Translation means to move the object with out rotating it or resizing it or re-drawing the object. Translation is all about moving things. In this example, we had to make a grid to show what Translation means. I drew to reptangles in a two by two shape formation!!!! It can go in so many places to the right side!!!!! ENJOY!!!

TORNADO ERUPTION!!!!

Yesterday there was a DESTRUCTIVE tornado that struck the innocent citizens of Albany in the North Shore district at around 3.00pm. Enormous winds that flew at 200/kmph and tore roofs off houses and lifted trucks and cars off the very ground. There has already one fatility with an innocent man getting trapped in these FIERCE WINDS!!!! And also multiple injuries to 10-15 people!!!

My Picnic recount!!!!

Already my legs were pushed to its ‘BREAKING POINT!!!’ and we were only halfway down the track of the Point England reserve!!!! I was releived as much as my heart could get when the picnic grounds were in my sights!!!! “ YAH “ I thought as we settled into our picnic enviroment!!! “ At Long last, no more pain the long, but short to some walk is finally over!!!

As Mr Burt explained the rules for this fun day my first thought was to play cricket. “BORING!!!”
I quietly whispered to myself. I thought that Mr Burt said the this was going to be a quick five minute talk once we arrived there. It went on and on!! But at long last it was a sigh of relief when we knew that it was time to go “WILD” and “CRAZY!!!” But as usual the intermediate block had to find a good spot. My hopes of having an “ ULTRA AMAZING!!!” time was shattered, That was until.......

I stick to what I say and I’m going to do, and that I did!!! Already I was in the midts of an AWESOME game of cricket!!!! “These people are better than I intended!!!! I thought that I would easily bowl them out, but they put up a competative fight!!!!! I thought that I should have bowled harder balls , but yet they were still hitting the ball and finding a way to run. Inside I was ‘CRANKY’!!!! But I knew not to give up and also to fight on and my chance to bat would come.....And you know what, I did!!! And literally SMASHED the ball for MILES!!!!!

The end of the day was upon us. It was time to make our way back to school. A long walk was ahead of us after such a great day!!!!!!1
