Year 8 Challenges 2016

#6 Mikonui Flat Tramp

WOW! My mind is officially blown. We just went on our 6th challenge, Tramping to Mikonui Flats Hut. When we got there it was wet. Wet wet and even more wet. We set up our tent and then went swimming in the swimming whole. The water was super clear and super super cold! Then we got out gas cookers, gas and started cooking our dinner. We had paste and per-cooked sausages. Then we had a dessert 
competition my group made Smores (Like 2 super wine biscuits with a piece of chocolate and a marshmallow in the middle). After dessert we sat by the camp fire and told riddles. Then we did a thing called SOLO. Were we sit in the bush by our self's and write a reflection. This is my Reflections.
Wow what an experience. Right now I sitting in the bush doing a thing called "Solo". Where you sit in the bush by yourself and only the dark for company. All I can here is a Moor pork and a lot of noise frogs. All I know is my imagination is running wild and I don't need to worry because people are not far away. Now here I am basically on my own, it is nice just to sit and listen to what sounds are around you. Now my mind is flowing with how crazy this is and how I am not scared.
Then we to bed. Next day it was time to go home, we packed up everything and started home. On the was we crossed the Mikonui River and the Toki River. When we stopped a the historical homestead for lunch I collapsed and when we made it to the car park I did the same thing. It was an Amazing experience and I hope to do it again. Here are some photos from our trip.

Earthquakes Shaking NZ

On Monday the 14th of November at 12.02 there was a 7.8 Earthquake that basically covered all of the south island. Kaikoura suffers with a lot of damage to be fixed and road closures. Roads are ripped up, Schools are closed, Railways are ripped up and tossed 30 feet by the quake and home destoeyed. Here are some photos of how bad this was.

Mad Lib Theater

This week we had Something new and Fun. Mad Lib Theater. If you are confused let me tell you what it is. So you can get a script from maybe a movie you like, lets just say Titanic ( that is the one we are doing) and get a scene out of the movie script. Then Take out all of the ADJECTIVE,  PLURAL NOUN, REGULAR VERB, ADVERB SINGULAR NOUN's and replace them with funny words without looking at the script. Here is an example video.
