Maths

1) 27x8=216

20x8=160

7x8=56

160+56=216

2)Train B has travelled more
Train A travelled 6/9 of 81 kilometres which is 54 that's 27 kilometres from 81 kilometres.
Train B travelled more because they travelled ⅞ of 72 kilometres which is 63 kilometres that's 9 kilometres away from 72 kilometres. 9 Is smaller than 27 so the less number is the answer.

3)51.2 divided by 8 is 6.4
8x6=48 and there's 3.2 left and 3.2 divided by 8 is 0.4 so 6+0.4 is 6.4

Athletics

 Last friday Tamaki Primary had athletics, my team was Tripoli. There are 4 house's called Alamain, Tobruk, Benghazi and number one Tripoli so my team didn't actually come in first place. 

When we got to school, junior kids were waiting for the classes to open so the seniors could paint the junior kids, so they could decorate their house gazebos. when the time hit 9:00 everyone had to go to their classes to mark the role and put our age number on our hands. then we had to walk to our gazebos so we could get ready for the activities. As the time went by Mrs Ashley was ringing the bell after 20 minutes so we can go to different activities. 

When everyone finished their sessions it was morning tea. There were parents with their kids eating and parents with their kids eating. T.P.S was serving ice blocks for 1 dollar and sausage sizzle for 2 dollars. Everyone was just playing around with the stuff and high jump mat. No one was allowed to go to the shops but KIDS!! Were caught going to the shops. After morning tea all of the kids had to pick up rubbish for bonus points. 

When we did racing some kids were cheering and some kids were playing. First the races started with the youngest kids in the school until it went to the eldest in the school.

Camp



On Monday 21st of september when camp started the seiners had a trip to camp raglan for two hours. I was sitting next to rudolph. And I was sitting in front of Maria and ana. There was a toilet stop in the gas station. When we made it, everyone had a meeting in the hall. But first we put all of our bags in the hall. When we finished having a meeting all of the kids went to go set up their dorms /beds. Then we all went for a walk to the beach. When Miss Ashley said NOT TO GO IN THE BEACH all the kids went to the beach. Me and my friend Davlyn were the last one to go to the beach. No one listened to Miss Ashley when she said NOT TO GO. then we all went for dinner. When some kids were awake at night time teachers had to go tell them off or move dorms. On the first day of camp a window in the bathroom was already broken. 


Then on Tuesday everyone had to wake up around 7:00 so everyone could go for a beach walk or wait and set up the tables for breakfast. After breakfast all of the kids and teachers went for a meeting. There were 3 groups. 1 group did orienteering and the other group went for kayaking then the last group went for sports. When i had lunch and dinner everyone had a movie night. Miss Ashley called a meeting cause on the first two days most of the kids weren't listening. Stuff was broken, kids were having a fight and then people were sad. When i had lunch i was sitting with davlyn, ehthoo, mathew, wesley and kymani. 



Then on wednesday in the morning everyone had breakfast then the 3 groups went for their orientation, rock climbing, and paddling. For lunch on wednesday we had pasta cake and water. After lunch everyone went to play at the pools, gym and the park. The girls had a party because it was Lily's birthday. And everyone had to sleep early because some boys had a fight. 


On thursday we were supposed to go on a beach walk, and have outside games. But then it was raining the whole entire way. So the only activities we were allowed to do was rock climbing, sports in the gym and fiafia show. Heaps of boys were crying because they were gonna go back home. We were playing team games and activities. Everyone was supposed to sleep at 9:00 clock, but sleep at 11:00 o’clock. And we had marshmallows.

On friday some kids went for a beach walk. Then the other kids were cleaning up their dorms. After breakfast everyone went outside. Then we all had hot dogs for lunch after we had lunch, kids were packing up their bags and went back home. When we had 2 hours back home people were unpacking their bags and going to the hall. Miss sharma said that whoever broke the stuff they had to pay for it.









 

Camp

What is the best way for kids to get days off school, SCHOOL CAMP!. With school camp schools get to get funds and get proceeds for camp. What is the best way for kids to take a break from school, School Camp!. The camp was partially funded by subsidised ($70ppls).


In camp you get to make new friends that have different cultures. You also get to build friendships. In camp you get to bunk with your friends and make new friends. In my camp I made friends with the maori class. We got to do different activities with more different people. It was a very interesting activity. The activities we did were sports,kayaking and orienteering. I got to bunk with Havea, Michael, Railey, Davlyn, Isi and Eh htoo wah. We got to take time off from our parents and we could bunk with our friends. It was so fun because we could talk with each other well we were gonna go to sleep. 


 It's good to have school camps because kids have lots of time on their technology. Technology is bad for the eyes if you are under 3 year old. Kids spend lots of time one their phones or computers and they get carried away and spend like 1 whole week on it. 


 In school camp you get to do new things that you haven't ever done. In school camp children get new experience. People get to do air rifles and also we get to do a campfire. It was so fun when we got to put the marshmallows on the fire. It was so nice when it was burnt. Usually people don’t like burnt stuff but it was actually very yummy. In this school camp you get to go into a lullaby. It was very fun when we were paddling. We were going so fast that I had to spew inside the water, I got a little seasick so that's why I got sick. Then after we did the lullaby we went to orienteering. Orienteering was so fun because we had a map to find the treasure. The treasure was something like a red ball. The fly fox was so fast like a cheetah.


We got to go on beach walks and got to even have a swim. The beach wasn’t so cold when we got there it was very warm. The tide was so low that it was so safe to even take a swim and catch some waves. In this school we might not get another chance to ever  go on a school camp with your friends. We also got to go on bushwalks that were so long. The bushwalk was almost like 500 metres. It was so scary because we went at night. We could not see where we were walking because it was pitch black. For example if there was a dead rat we would just walk on top of it. People in the front and the back had torches and flash light so they could not leave anyone behind. It was so nice to go on this school camp because it was like a holiday.


At camp some people had fights but the teachers solved it. At the end we got a massive lunch that the owners of the camp made for us. It was so nice that I licked my lips. We had sandwiches and cakes. The cake was nearly the same nice as the sandwiches but the sandwiches were still the most delicious. Jenny and Tony were the ones that farewelled us. The bus was waiting for us when we came out of the hole. The sandwiches were for lunch and we had to have dinner at our house.

Why is it important to swim?

 It is important to swim because of other people that come where it's landlocked and they might drown because they’re not used to swimming. NZ has over 700 beaches. In 2018 68 people drowned and die (watersafety.org). There are 15,000 km of coastline, making it the 3rd longest coastline in NZ (wikipedia.org). Some people that are new to swimming take swimming lessons at the pools. It is important to swim so you can save one of your family members if you drown.


If you swim you will be able to save someone if they fall in the water. It is good to be able to swim so you can be confident to save yourself or someone else. 


When you swim you can help yourself stay healthy and strong. 


When you are able to swim you can prevent someone from drowning. In 2017 92 people died and mostly kids which is very sad.


 It’s a tradition to take your family and go to the beach and use the BBQ to get some food. When we go on the ocean kids and adults wear life jackets. When kids go on school trips overseas they have to wear a safety jacket to keep them safe. If someone is going to drown
