Lucy Swimming Explanation Writing


 If you don't how to swim then here is a few tips just for you. Just put on your togs and you're ready to go. Just go to your nearest swimming pool and start swimming.

Here are some basic instructions to do in the water. All you need is a board. Put your hands on the bottom of the board your chin on your chest and  start kicking. Do long and straight arm strokes reach for the sky.


Here is another basic instruction. Back Stroke lie on the back in the water tummy out and head straight facing the ceiling and fast kicking to the end just practice floating on your back first.

For the next instruction. Grab your board and put your hands on the top of the board head up and long straight kicks all the way to the end of the pool if the pool is too long stop when you get to the middle or keep going and try your best to reach the end.

I conclude that if you need more practice go and try a swimming lesson and remember my advice I have given you. keep practicing and don't give up.

Lucy Recount Year 5 and 6 Camp 2014

It was nice sunny partly cloudy day the year five and six camp had just begun we all in our groups I was in the care squad. We were doing some kayaking we had just finished top town which is an obstacle course that you have to versus another team we were verusing the All stars it was had lots of fun even if we lost.



Sleeping in a tent was really comfortable but really hot and then in the morning it would be freezing cold. When we get all you can here is this loud horn and Miss Garden saying Good Morning Campers!!!!! it was about 6am of something we would walk to the hall and do some jump jam to wake us up.



Next we had cooking we got into two groups one girls and the other boys.The boys went with whaia saffron and us girls went with Mrs Jarman. We made cheese scones and the boys made corn fritters and smores yum! At morning tea we ate our cheese scones and they were delicious!!



Overall that was the best camp I had ever been to and if I had to pick a favorite subject I would pick cooking.Now I can’t wait for the year six camp!

Year 5 and 6 Camp 2014

Can you guess what today is? Its the year the 5 and 6 camp!! We just finished kayaking and it was so fun I went in a single and a double that means I went in a kayak by myself and then with a friend. It was a sunny day the sky was partly cloudy but we didn't care. The water was cool and I just felt like jumping in while I was kayaking with my partner Mahana she used the  end of the paddle to splash me! And then I splashed her back the we had a water fight. Good times. Thanks for reading!!! Here is a photo of the kayaking.

Butterfly Life Cycle Writing

Do you know how a butterfly is made? I do, first the butterfly lays the egg on the underside of a leaf to keep it safe. The egg is the size of a sesame seed! After a few days the egg will hatch and a tiny caterpillar will emerge and eat its egg as its first  snack.

After the egg is finished and the caterpillar moves on to the leaves of the swan plant where it was laid. As it grows the skin of the caterpillar starts to shed every time it sheds means that a new life stage has begins this called instar.

Once the caterpillar is fully grown it finds a safe branch or twig to hang on and make its chrysalis which takes a few days. When the time is right the butterfly will break out of the chrysalis it will take a few minutes for the blood to flow into the wings when it is ready it will fly off and start a new life as a butterfly.

Good Friends

Do you know how to be a good friend? If you don't just read this blog post that I made. The first thing about being a good friend is to be kind to each other don't be mean or they won't be your friend because no one likes someone who is mean to them.

Next is to be trustworthy you shouldn’t do stuff behind there your friends back because when they find out they will be hurt in the inside so be trustworthy and another thing you could do is stick by there side in there time of need if they're getting bullied stand up for them and maybe when you need them they will stand up for you.

Disagreements, if you and your friend get into a fight don't  just leave and not talk to each you should talk about it can help you and your friend get along and if the other doesn’t reply you should say sorry to them and tell them that you didn’t mean what you said or something like that.



If you think your friend might be a bit better than you don’t worry that much about because there your friend and they  like you just the way you are and don’t be show off cause no one likes a show off cause they think they're sooo cool but everyone is cool in there own way.

So I conclude that everyone should be a good friend because that will mean you could get more friends if you include them in your games and other things and do the things that I have written in this blog post and remember these things so you can have loads of friends and not be the lonely one.

Lucy Inference - The Bird Nest

The Bird Nest
Tom woke up and turned on the lamp. He pushed the sheet and Woollen rugs off himself and staggered to the Window, which was partly open. He looked up to see a full moon and there, in the moonlight, sitting on a nest in a massive gum tree, was a mother bird and her noisy baby chicks. The nest, made from twigs, straw, wool and dead grass, was swaying wildly from side to side. As it did so, the mother bird tried to calm her frightened young ones by chirping softly to them.

The day of Everlasting Darkness Chapter 2

And for part 2 of The day of Everlasting Darkness! The day was still covered in total darkness it wasn't cold it was frezeing cold because of the moon covering the light and warmth of the sun so it was cold and dark very dark it was almost pitch black! In the castle In Zulas room Sirina and Zula were trying to figure out where Zulas missing sister was and fast because the witches and wizards that all around the world were cold, hungry and they couldn't find their way around.


We must find your sister now! shouted sirina she was mad it has been already three days! And they still have no idea where Zulas sister is. While serena was shouting Zula remembered a spell that could take her to someone but it took one thing from the person you want to see and concentration it was an highly advanced spell but Zula was pro so she ran into her sisters old bedroom and got her sisters old teddy bear it was blue and covered in dust and when zula grabbed tears started coming down her face she and her sister were best friends but this was the day where she was going to see her sister and nothing was in her way.


When she came back into the room Serena was still shouting to herself which looked really weird when she stopped Zula explained her plan than serena said well what you waiting for so Zula started to perform the spell a few seconds later they were traveling to somewhere they don't even know.
