The wake boarding pro

For the holidays I went rangiputa. So Saturday Night we all packed up and were ready to hit the road in the morning. 

We left at around 11 and got there at 11:50. It was really windy so we couldn't launch the jet ski so we went to Puheke and put the torpedo out. I brought my motorbike so I was just riding around as my dad was putting the torpedo out. For some reason that torpedo only went out half way but we left it out for half an hour to see if we would catch anything. The line didn't seem to heavy but we pulled it in and caught one big Snapper which could feed all of us so that was great. 

The next morning we woke up and it was still windy so we waited till low tide then zipped down to the point to put out the mullet net out. Then we came back had lunch and then went to put the Torpedo out again and got 4 snapper. 

Then finally there was no wind and the water was as flat as a pancake we were going to go wake boarding for the first time but then my Mum and Dad decided to go fishing on the jet ski and they came back with 3. 2 Snapper and 1 Trevally. sadly the wind pick up to like 18 knots and it was too windy to go wake boarding but the weather forecast said there would be no wind tomorrow.

I woke up hoping that there was no wind and that the water would still be flat like yesterday morning and it was so we got all the gear ready and jumped into the water for a quick swim before we went wake-boarding for the first time. It took me a couple goes to get my technique right but I got up easy I tried to do cool tricks but failed horrendously.

Then sadly it was time to head home so packed up all our stuff it took us like 2 hours but we hopped into the cars and got home around 12.

Pebble

It's a dark morning for me the sand moves around. I can hear the waves crashing the wind blowing the moon falling and the white wash simmering.

I could see the boat's in the distance as the bright gloomy Sun Rise behind it. my heart drops with scared emotions as the boats creep closer and closer.

I see the soldiers as a disembark. The Sand rumbles I get Flick and stepped on. The sound of guns getting loaded and soldiers getting off the boats goes for a long time.

Then the gunshot start. The gunshots are going for a long time soldiers drop one by one to the ground straight shock went into my mind. The gun shots are so loud I feel like I'm going deaf.

Then everything goes quiet the sun starts falling. It feels like someone put the gunshots on mute. I'm covered in blood and surrounded by dead soldiers, I feel so scared I don't know what to do.

  My holiday

For my holiday I went to Queens town and Christchurch but my favourite bit was on the second week of the school holidays Thursday. Me and my family went to Hanmer Springs. Hanmer Springs is about an hour and a half out of Christchurch it is a big hot water park. It has 4 slides, two of the slides you can go with another person those slides were for pretty much for 11 year's and up and then the other two slides you could only go by yourself and those slides were for 10 year's and under also there were about 15 pools. every single pool was heated even the slides were heated.  It was about -1 degrees so it was so good that the pool’s were heated. I was freezing at the start when we got there but I started getting warm throughout the day. The pools were about 38 to 40 degrees.

What was the highlight of your term? A highlight for me would be doing sports because we did sports like three times a week and that's my favourite thing to do.

What was your biggest challenge? My biggest challenge was trying to finish my whole contract every week to a high standard for me to do that I stayed focused and made sure I checked all my work before publishing.

What was your greatest success? My greatest success would be doing my speech in class because I work for at least an hour on it and I think it came out pretty good. My speech came out successful because of my focus and hard learning.

What is something you have learned? Something I have learned this term would be knowing how to measure volume and what volume is. This was a really fun task and we also did this during isolation.
