West Coast Wilderness Trail

 

26th of March 2024. Most of my class went on a massive bike ride which ended up being 43km. We biked for approximately 5 hours, we started at 9:30am – 2:30pm.

 

My class started at Old Christchurch Road, which was all flat, empty and straight for a while. I was teaching Stella how to change gears and how to use her brakes. That part went for 15km, and then we carried on. The trail got bumpier as we went and more puddles. ( Aalia and I loved the puddles you should’ve seen our backs!) 

 

Next we went to this curvy, steep, downhill that was what I called “Wipeout Town”! First Jacob forgot to use his breaks and went flying down and skidded off his bike.  He was fine so he hopped back on and then Sayasun got wiped out! She went too fast down and fell right off but she hopped back on, This was the most hilarious section. 

 

My next favourite part was when I was with Aalia at Larrikins Road. There was a big hill and Aalia and I were screaming and laughing, with fear in our eyes. We were as fast as lightning going down the hill.

 

The hardest part was the big steep hills. We found riding very difficult when we had to go up the hills even in the lowest gear because some people hopped off their bikes in the middle of it so we had to turn into a deep pothole or onto the long grass.

 

Overall I loved this bike ride. This bike ride was enjoyable and entertaining and I loved talking to my friends while biking. We did this bike ride for a William Pike Challenge.

Christmas around the world Italy

I found all the facts for Italy a bit of a challenge.Italy is a very nice country to go to for Christmas because Its vibrant warm and you feel very welcomed when you go there.

Best Writing work

This term my class and I have been doing poetry Anthology. This activity was really fun and interesting. I learnt how to write several poems. The hardest part about this activity was finding and learning how to write the poems. I really enjoyed writing the poems

Australian surfer breaks record

This week for our current events we got to pick our own article about anything. I chose Australian surfer breaks record.

 

I learnt that if you keep practising your sport or passion,  when you perform you will be great.

These are my note and my paragraph is in there too.

I used a website to help me write my paragraph its called Goblin tools. The first paragraph is the one I write by myself and the bottom one I used Goblin.tools. I think I will use a thesaurus next time to try and improve my vocab.

On January the 22nd a 31 year old surfer called Laura Enever broke the record for the paddle in the wave for a woman.  She was so determined  to surf the wave as the wave rumbled beneath her board sh felt like nothing and that nothing even happened. She worked so hard and practised a lot that when she broke the record it felt like nothing to her. 

On January 22nd, Laura Enever, a 31-year-old professional surfer, set a new record for women in paddle-in wave riding. Her unwavering determination allowed her to seamlessly navigate the powerful wave, as if effortlessly gliding on her board. Through rigorous training and persistent practice, Laura achieved this remarkable milestone with such grace and composure that it seemed almost second nature to her. 

 

My Holiday Lie

This is my recount of my holidays. In one of my paragraphs there is a lie. Can you guess what it is?

During the holiday I went to Christchurch on Friday at 8 am with my Mum Neve and her Mum and I. We went to Christchurch because we were going up for Jackson’s early birthday but they didn’t end up coming. They were supposed to go to Adventure Park. Adventure Park is a very cool bike Park with ramps, food and all that but his friend couldn’t go because he sprained his foot, and because it was raining and it would have been slippery and it was low cloud. 

When we got to Christchurch we headed to the Riccarton mall because we couldn’t go to our hotel till 2 and we arrived about 12 30. The first thing Mum suggested was going down to the end of the mall and then on the way back we went to the shops so we didn’t have to hold the bags all the way there and back after all the shopping.

We went to the Basketball game, the Rams vs the Giants. It was a good game the Rams won by 6 points. After that we went back to our hotel and put on our face masks and waited for a while and peeled them off, then we watched the tv and went to bed.  

On Saturday we woke up and went to go get breakfast at the cafeteria there was toast, Hash Browns, sausages , cereal, and more i got some Hash browns and a croissant after breakfast we went to another Mall we didn’t get much in there then we had Dumpling for lunch and then left to go back to Greymouth.
