Weekly Reflection

This week I had a great week. Something that made me smile is that when I ran my workshop on
Wednesday, I felt like people presented the hard work and Brooklyn and I had put into it.
Something that was silly that I laughed at was when Jessie was doing the dome making with the jelly beans and she stuck the toothpicks in the jelly beans and called it a Porky Pine.
I used my creativity by doing my boat because I couldn't find a way to make the water in the boat so then I rapped it up in duck tape.
How I was kind this is when Alexa was feeling sick I made sure she was alright.
Something I am looking forward next week is for swimming sports because I have been practicing hard
and I am going to try my best!

School

My first week back at school was really fun. I got see some of my friends who
were in Wetu last year and got to meet some new people.I really like how our days are
planned up because we get to do a lot of activities. I really like our art that we are doing
at the moment because you can make a lot of connections with what you like.

Fixed or Growth

What would you say to yourself if you had a growth mindset?

I am faced with a challenge and I am going to show you the way

I’ll face the challenge with a growth Mindset or a Fixed Mindset

prospective.

Fixed Mindset

This is so hard.

I can’t do this.

This is good enough.

How did that person do it?

Growth Mindset

I can’t do this, yet.

I will never give up.

I can do this.

True or False

These are my three true or false questions. Good luck

I like shorthorns or Jerseys

I like butter chicken or sushi

If I were a car

If you were a vehicle, what would you be and why? Add an image to this post. If I was a vehichicle I would be a Holden Colorado Trailblazer because they are really practical car and they can last for years. They are really good for taking big heavy trails and that good for me because I can take my show cows.

Big cheif

The things that are special about my role in Marama is that I am a leader of the school, and I am looking forward to doing some things with the little kids like we did last year. I am really excited to sit on the chairs at assembly aswell.

I think that Grown-ups need to know their people a lot more because some adults just guess and then
when they get it wrong they feel bad. Personally, I don't like it when people feel bad for you because it then
makes you feel bad!

These are 6 words that my friends describe me as.

Caring

Honest

Happy

Arty

Funny

Learning Smarts

My highest scores are on Logical-Mathematical, Visual-spatial and naturistic. I was surprised to see how high my results were because last year my results were quite low. I was also quite surprised to see the music wasn't 100% because I really like music.

I like this quote because I always set a goal for myself and always won't to achieve it and a good way to achieve it is to have the inspiration to get up in the morning.

Holidays

Holidays

I started of my holidays by going to the beach with Summer. We went swimming at the beach, walking downtown and made slime for the first time.

A few days after we went to the beach it was christmas! For christmas I went to my cousins in Auckland and we went to the beach since that was a couple k’s from there house.

After christmas I went with summer to her dads in Dargaville. When we were in Dargaville we went to the wave pools and had our friend Elisa over and we went to the movies and watched Jumanji 2.

After I was in Dargaville I headed down to the beach again and then saw my old friend Natalie. When I had here over we went to her mum's friends house and look after 2 kids and watched the movie Fernando. The next day we headed down back home and had a water fight with some water balloons.

The next week was a big week for me, because I was heading down to Australia to do a big show called Dairy Week. What I did there was a team challenge and Young handlers.  

A few Days after that I headed down to dairy event in feilding.

For that we took 4 calves and 4 yearlings. My first ring that I did was Young Handlers and in that class I got last. The next thing I did was another team challenge and for that I did the young handlers class  and I had to lead a  yearling that I had never lead before.. For that I got first! The next day I was showing my shorthorns. My first class was with opal and she is my calf. With here I got 7th and I just missed out on a ribbon. My next class was with my yearling Fleur and she got me first, champion, and north island champion. I was really happy. That night there was a big calf sail and there was a shorthorn I really liked and I got here!

Beach Surf Lifesaving Day

On Wednesday we headed down to Waihi beach to take part of the surf lifesaving day to learn about how to stay safe in the water.

We started off by getting to know the lifeguards and learning how to stay safe in the water.

We then split up into two groups and headed down to the lifeguard's tower and learned about what the lifeguards do and how they communicate when someones in trouble.

After that, we got back as a group and headed down to the beach and did some fun activities.The first activity that we did was seaweed and it was a bit of a challenge because I found it really hard to run in the sand so it was really easy to slip over.

The next activity that we did was beach flag which is a game when you lye on your tummy and then when the whistle blows yo race to get a flag/pole. the last activity we did was in the water and we had to run around all the parents and we had to do dolphin dives, high ness and also splash the parents in the water.

After all the activities we finally got to have a swim in the water. 

The key things I learned

• Rips only take you out to the end of the last crashing wave.
• If you want to be a lifeguard you can start at the age of fourteen  
•  Slip Slop Slap Rap Slide Stomp Stamp Smear
