Christmas Holidays!

In the holidays I'm going to Wanaka in the South Island with all my cousins. We are going to spend Christmas there. On boxing day in the afternoon my family is going to fly to America. I'm really excited because I'm going to see all my friends who I haven't seen in a year. For my dads birthday we are going to go on a cruise to Mexico with some close friends. The cruise is called the Carnival Cruise and there are heaps of fun activities like going to the pool and playing mini golf. Another thing I might do in America is go to Disney World. I can't wait for the holidays!!!

My term 4 highlights!

My six highlights that I did in my journal were learning about space, decorating the classroom with Christmas ornaments, year 7 retreat, tech (I'm in movie making), Athletics because I went to the Inter zones and getting my speech done and over with.

Next year!!!!! (year 8)

Next year i will be a YEAR 8 and im soooo excited! I am looking forward to camp the most and one of my goals is to be a house captain. Something that I want to achieve is getting my merit and excellence badge. At camp i want to do all the activities. This time next year I will be prapering to go to college and leave St. Bens and that will be really sad. I will try to make the most of my last year at this school!

My Speech???

My speech went pretty bad.......I think. I did it on Gabby Douglas. I talked too fast and I looked at my cue cards the whole time but I'm just glad it's over. I went 3rd after veronica and Imogen. I wanted to be one of the first people cause then I could get it over with. I actually tried a bit but I don't want to go to the finals. which I wont.

Hunger games!!

A book that I have read recently is the Hunger Games Catching Fire. It was AMAZING!!! One of the best books I have ever read. Once I started reading it I could not put it down. I liked it a lot because it has a lot of things you don't expect and it had a lot of cool survival things. My favourite character was Finnick Odair because he is really helpful but nothing like you would expect. I really like all the Characters though. I really suggest you should read this book.

SPEECH!!!

I am sooo nervous for the speech competition! I am really bad at writing speeches and even worse at performing them. I'm not very confident or prepared but I have to do it. I think it is unfair how they for everyone to write and present a speech! I will try to do well in my speech but I do NOT want to go to the finals. (I really hope I finish writing it on time!!!)

Space!!!

What have I found interesting learning about Space???
The most interesting thing I have learned about space is about the seasons because it is really confusing but really interesting at the same time! All the angels that the Earth is on is really cool.
