My favorite thing about Rimu


My favorite thing in Rimu is that we learn lot and lots of things and the teachers are really nice and kind. They help you when you need it. In Rimu, we have a lot of fun and cool learning tasks and everyone has a big heart and I think that the new learning suits everyone. Also in this hub we make a lot of friends in a lot of ways. We have our learning muscles. My good learning muscle is my managing distractions muscle and the one that I need to work on is my absorption muscle.

My challenging learning that I achieved

My challenging learning that I have achieved is my maths. When I first started stage five I didn't know how to do it but then, as I went to a workshop, that gave me a tip how to do it. After that day Mrs Carr gave stage five a sheet and  the sheet had divided bys and I have almost finished them.I have done sixteen of them and you have to do twenty of them so I am getting close to it!
Maths isn't that hard now, even though I have gone up a group. Last week I got ten out of ten and only two of   the extras wrong but I still got a sticker. Now maths is my favorite task!

Dear Angela
Thank you for dropping us off and picking us back up. You are very helpful and you are kind. I liked the way you turned up the music; it was super loud. As we went by in the car I was enjoying the view. It was amazing your car is super cool and BIG.

Thank you again for your stunning smile. It shows that you are kind in every way  and also thank you for giving up your time  to come to camp with us and help with everything . Thank you so much for the help again. You are so much fun! You even got out our bags out for us when we forgot them. Thank you very much.

Thank you for taking us everywhere. You are like a taxi driver and you are very very caring.  Even if I wasn't in your car to Camp Weka, you are still my driver. You are very helpful and thank you for helping us with our camp activities and our other camp stuff.  Thank you for doing everything.

Thank you for helping us and doing activities with us. You safely drove us to the park and safely drive us to swimming. You are awesome and thank you for making that day my favourite day of the camp.


Yours sincerely

Taylah  McQuinlan



      
I am proud of this because I lost all of my best words about her and all of my detail is in there too.

My biggest challenge was the spelling.


The super fly in Napier

 This Saturday or Sunday me and my mum are going to the super fly in Napier. The super fly is a blow up bouncy slide that has to be about 20 feet up. There are three slides. One goes to the left and one goes to the right and one is in the middle. To get a ride on it costs 99 dollars for a hour. For two people, it is 200 dollars.

My friend Jenna, and her brother Bradley,  called our number in our hotel room so we would let them in. This other lady came to the phone and said this  "Hello its Anne here. hallow I now you are still there. I'm coming down right now."
All of us yelled for help and then my mum come down and said "What is all of that noise?" When me and Jenna calmed down from all of that, we headed to the Super fly in Napier. The Super fly is so cool. It was a hot day so it was full of people.

A new addition to the familly

Last week my mum's sister Leanda  had a baby called Riley. Riley had to stay in the hospital with the doctors until February 28. She keeps breathing on her own and then not breathing on her own. It is very confusing. On the day she gets out of the hospital, me and my mum are going down to the South Island. I finally get to meet my baby cousin in real life. I am so excited to meet her. I feel so sorry for her sister Samantha.  She has to share everything  because Samantha is 1.
