My trip one year ago😀

Last year in the Christmas holidays my Dad,my Cousin and I went to the West Coast for a holiday.

4:30am

First we drove down to Greymouth The first thing we did when we got there was unpack all of our stuff. Then we got into some nice clothes and went out for  dinner at the local restaurant 🍔 I got a burger,my dad got fish 🐟 and my cousin got hot dogs 🌭. After we were finished eating  we went back to the batch to have some dessert.We had chocolate cake. Following that we went to sleep.

6:00am

The next morning we woke up at 6:00am because we were going to drive to Hokitika to go on a treetop walk  and to meet up with my cousins and uncles, we saw a lot of cool 😎 birds. After we finished the walk we went down to Shantytown. At Shantytown we went on a train and went gold mining . Following that we went for a swim. Later that night we ate dinner and went to bed.

my News Letter item

On Tuesday morning we were joined by Scott Tulloch (a self taught illustrator and author) for our Duffy Role Model assembly. Mr Tulloch has published more than 25 books. He spoke to us about a few of his books. He showed us a video of his book ‘I Am Not A Worm’, which was one of favourite books when I was 8! He drew a picture of Mr Adams to show us how to draw and get ideas, and what to focus on when drawing. Mr Tulloch likes to use pictures as much as words to tell a story, which I think makes his books more enjoyable for younger children. He told us a story when he was younger and came last in the school cross country, I can relate to this because I don’t really enjoy doing the cross country either, but he has taught me to persist even when things get hard or are difficult. Thank you to Duffy and the sponsors for our books this term. Ellie Whelan Year 7

This week on Thursday mr Gray and the kapa Haka group went for a trip to preform at the Mairehau high school campus.

 We preformed three songs takahea puki, toteru mai nae iwi and e touro nae mere ( sorry about the spelling) we had a great time , we preformed really fantastically the only downfall was when we got there it started to pour down with rain but overall I think this was a really great experience.

I would really to hear if you have had any experience like that.
