Helping people in need.

This week in reading we read an article called changing lives. It was about this man who made this wheel chair thing called the Omeo. The Omeo is a wheel chair that moves by it self so people in wheel chairs don’t have to move there arms. After we read that we had to create a thing to help people. It took me ages to think of something to make but i finally chose to make a arm for people how have no arms. We had to fill in the google drawing all about the thing you want to create. Click on the image to read all about my creation.

I would love to learn more about how people changed lives.

Have you ever heard of the Omeo?

 

NO MORE ANIMAL  TESTING

In Reading I have been learning to make connections with the story.

My reading group read a story about protesting. 

I had to create a slideshow to show  something that we support and I chose to stop animal testing. 

Something I found interesting was that people that test on animals really hurt them and they get big cuts and marks. 

Something that I found challenging was finding facts about animal testing. 

Here is my slideshow: Click on it to look at the slideshow

My Experience at Woodend Camp

My experience at Woodend Camp

On Monday the 13th of February Tumu hub was lucky enough to go to Woodend Camp and this is how it went. At 6:30 am I woke up and packed the last things in my bags. I was jumping up and down with excitement. Then my mum said, “Monica in the car let’s go”. I grabbed my bag and hopped in the car. 

When we got to school I met my friends at the gate and I put my bags in the big pile.  Then I brought my baking up the stairs and put it in the box. 

After prayer we got our bags and packed them in the bus and hopped into the bus. I was so excited I was screaming. On the bus I sat with my friend Emilie and we kept singing because it was a long bus ride. The bus dropped us off at Pegasus beach and we had to walk a 4km walk to camp. When we were walking all I could hear was complaining and singing. One of the teachers had to carry someone. It was crazy.  We were not even half and I was over it. It was killing me

Finally we were there. I was so hot and tired but that did not stop me from rushing around the camp. I was so happy that we were finally here.

After we had a quick lunch we all gathered in the main hall and talked about what camp would look like and then we found out our activity groups. I was in group 2 with lots of my friends. 

Soon after we went and found our bunk room I was in bunk room 26 with 8 girls Violet, Ashlyn, Oliva, Ivy, Clarie, Saide and me Monica. There was one other girl but she did not come. 

There was this bell that the teacher would ring when we needed to come in for the next activity or to come in for food and when we heard it we had to run fast. 

Over the 3 days and 2 nights we did lots of activities. My favorite was zipline. The higher I went the more scared I got. My harness was as tight as someone giving you a wedgie. My head was banging the roof like it was a drum. As Matt clipped me on I was hanging and then whoosh I went down the rope.

Then the time came when we had to go home. We were all so sad. It was so fun, I can not wait for next time.

Have you ever been on a school camp? Was it fun? What did you do?
