Pink T-Shirt Day

On Friday last week it was Pink T-Shirt day and we all wore pink. I wore a Pink jacket and when I got to school almost everyone was wearing Pink. First we all had a Singing assembly and Ms McGrath helped us practice the lines. Once we finished the assembly we went out to get a picture. Miss Daly got the drones out and turned them on. We all formed a giant t-shirt in the meantime. Ms Daly used the camera on the drone so she would get a better picture. Some of the people got surprised when they heard the drone start flying. Once she got the photo she sent it to the other teachers. Then we went back to class and and wrote compliments to strangers. It worked by first writing nice comments in our book. After we wrote it on a paper T-shirt and coloured it in. Then we made another T-shirt after at the end of the day the teachers gave them out.

Cameron Pools

 In week 1 term 2 we started going to Cameron Pools because we live on a island and are surrounded by water. In my first session I was in the Nan's pool and it was shallow. The pool was heated and I thought it was too easy. On Thursday I got moved to the adult pool because the instructor said so. At first I was scared about the depth but after the instructor helped me. I learned to put my face in the water without blowing bubbles. After the instructor pulled out a pole for me to hold onto and do my front kicking. In the next week I learned to stand in the pool without drowning. Then we got black boards to start the front kicking it was easy! After we learned to do the thing that scared me the most? We did back kicking without a board so the instructor held me and when she let go I did it! In conclusion I now love Cameron pools.        

Jerome fortune teller

 This morning the deputy principal taught us to make fortune tellers. Fortune tellers are a type of paper origami that  tells your fortune. Then Miss McGrath started explaining where to fold and how to fold it. We did a lot of folding and creasing that my fingers hurt. Finally when we finished the folds Debs helped with the shape. After  Miss McGrath explained what the numbers and colours mean. For my colours I chose green,blue,black and brown Debs helped with the colouring. I started doing dots but Debs told me the right way to colour. Then we wrote the numbers one to eight and it looked like it when't around and around. After we wrote compliments inside the folds like the ones in our fitness diaries. They are Warriors fitness diaries that we've been filling since week 3. I struggled a bit with the writing enough that I got frustrated so I made it a anger fortune teller. Finally I finished it I was so proud when I tried it it was fun.
