Term+1+Reflection

 Term Reflection This is my first term at this school so far it’s been great. This term I’ve enjoyed about everything we’ve done this term. We’ve had athletics standards, Out of it all I liked camp the most because it was the first time trying surfing and the food was better than any camp I had been to. I was fun doing all the activities; we camped out for the first night and playing cricket whenever we had free time. The activities were pizza cooking, surfing, canoeing, raft building, orienteering, challenge valley, bush story, treasure hunt and initiation. Before we went to sleep we also had some activities like a movie and team quiz. I was in a cabin with Sheil, Kevin, Sahil and myself. I had a great time at camp and I was a bit sad to leave. Other than camp we went to science works this term. I had already been there 3 times before with my family and my old school. We programmed a robot to find diamond and we put them into an area where some mirrors were placed. Our robot didn’t find any; our closest shot was when I ran over it with its wheel. There was this thing called Cool Stuff. They did all kinds of stuff with liquid nitrogen like making Blu Tak hard like a nail when she put in liquid nitrogen. I learnt that when gas is cold it shrinks and when it is warm it expands. This term in sport when done basketball and cricket. I’m not good at both of them but I had a lot of fun. I’ve gotten better at shooting than at the start of this year. This term in Art I liked doing the ink drawings because I have never done ink drawings before. I liked doing them a lot. In music we had to make a musical instrument. I made a guitar out of wood and nylon. We had 3 weeks to make it. In Science when are learning about the human body and forces. I learnt that friction creates heat and so a car goes very fast it starts getting hot. During recess and lunch I usually play 4 square with anyone else who is playing. I like playing even though the line is usually 6 people long and when I go out it takes a few minutes to get back in.
