Yesterday on the 24.11.16 I found out that I got into Canterbury Athletics. Which is a massive goal of mine. When I found out I wad so so happy, my first ever time going Canterbury for Athletics. It is a massive success. I'mm glad I got into it, also since they only picked the top 2 from the West Coast.
I got into for 3 events which is better than going all the way for 1 event.
The events I got into are....
* High jump - I jumped 1.25m which is up to the bottom of my neck
* Long jump - I jumped 3.51 which is more than double my height
* 100m Sprints - I'm not sure how quick I was.
I'm very happy with my achivement. Can't wait till the 7th next week on Wednesday to compete.

Tramping!
Mikonui Flats hut
I woke up, full of excitement and adventure. My dad came and dropped me off at school - I was quite sad when he had to leave.
We hopped into our cars and drove off, on our adventure we drove around about 1.30mins to get to out walking destination.
I was sitting in a back of a car and started not to feel so good. My breathing started to go weird, I got all dizzy. Then I had a panic attack. It was horrible. After my panic attack had finished, we started to walk. We made it to the lunch spot dug out my lunch and ate. I was so hungry! We carried on walking and done out first river crossing. It was cold!
When we got to the hut we put up our tents and went for a swim, we jumped off the rock and had a swim. THE WATER WAS COLD, and a very pretty blue.
For the rest of the night, we came up got warm had tea sat near the fire and, THEN! we had to go out in the dark by our selfs for 20mins, and OH was I scared. I was weary kept looking up scanning the area. That is not my cuppa tea.
After out 20 minutes in the dark alone we all came back and went to bed. It took us awhile to get to sleep. I had a bad sleep against the side of the tent all night wet.
We all woke up and were talking for 5 minutes and then we heard pot and pans banging to wake everybody up.
As Mr S-W came near our tent we were all like "were awake were awake" . we got up packed had pancakes for breakfast and cleaned up and went. The walk back felt like it took longer and was harder as we crossed a deep river and took a slight route. My bag felt heavier since I had wet clothes in it.
Overall my experience was great, and I had a great time.

Mad Lib Theatre
Mad lib Theatre
On Wednesday and Thursday, we did, Mad Lib theatre.
Our inspiration for mad lib theatre is Jimmy Fallon. Here is a video for you to watch to get what I'm talking about. Click this link
So basically, you get a movie scene script and take some words out and replace them with e.g verbs examination etc. then you place them into the script. This is my plan Çlick this link
Then, this is my version Click this link
Hope you enjoy!
