On Monday the year 5 and 6 children went on camp, most of us all went. We first arrived at school and loaded our luggage into the hall we then waited for everyone to arrive including the buses so we can leave. Next we Packed our things into a compartment at the bottom of the bus, then we got on the bus. On the bus we took a few photos while we drove on a long ride to living springs farmyard. After about 30 minutes we all arrived at the farmyard and hopped off the bus so the bus can go all the way up a hill to drop out luggage off at the camp. At the farmyard we were split into 2 groups after having some morning tea. One group walked over to milk a cow and feed a calf which was very interesting. We first milked a cow, we squeezed he cow's udder a little to make milk pure out. Unfortunately we didn't all get a turn but those that did really enjoyed it. Next we fed a baby cow e.g. calf, the people who didn't get to milk the cow all had a turn to feed the calf and it was kinda crazy. The cow keeped pulling the bottle we were feeding it with and it was kinda tricky to keep a hold of the bottle but we all managed. The 2nd group got to go on a ride on a trailer attached to a tractor. The trailer ride was super fun and we saw heaps of animals on the ride and a really cool skull of a type of animal. Once each group had a turn doing both we sat down for lunch at old tables that were covered in bird poo and bugs. After lunch we go into a small groups that we were assigned to and stated walking up a steep hill for about 30 to 40 minutes. Half way up the hell walk we got stopped in the middle of a bush to be warned about a spiky plant that stings and has spikes down the middle and the sides, we had to be super aware of this plant on put whole trip. Once we had finally reached the camp my legs hurt and I was about to collapse well I felt like it anyway. we got shown to our bunk rooms and I immediately dibs one of the top bunks. The bunk rooms were really nice but had a few insects in them. The room e and my bunk mates had had 4 bunks but the bottom of my bunk had a double bed that was Ans bed. We then got settled in and went to have afternoon tea. After our lovely food we went to a few groups. My group was first doing swimming the pool a little smaller then the school pool but the deep end was definitely deep. We just id free play in the pool and then hot out and went to get dressed. We had to put on shorts if we weren't wearing them already because it was over 30 degrees outside. And then I went zip lining down a hill above thorn bushes and trees. We got harnessed into a strap and put on a helmet and then pretended we were sitting down and then wooosh down we go. After that fun experience I went on the monorail and then it all went down hill literally...  I climed up a hill then waited my turn in a short line waiting to live HELL. Once it was my turn to go down i felt scared and buckled my seat belt and then I got pushed down. The monorail went so fast and had a super sharp turn and then I basically couldn't move i was in schock. And then i had dinner whitch was chiken curry, did a burma trail and then had a game of spotlight and that was day 1 for camp. Do you want a day two? comment your answer

my reflection on 2020

 2020 has been a tough year with viruses but my experience at south hornby school has been one of my best. I have been to many different schools but I have to say south hornby school has been the best. This year has been filled with super fun surprises like swimming and camp fairy meed. Most of the students here are so lovely and i'm not gonna say specific names. the teachers have been superb with teaching everybody and have some amazing facts.

endangered animals inquiry term 4

 It this blog I am going to tell you and show you some things about deforestation that includes: what is a habitat, what is deforestation and how can I help. A habitat is a place where something lives such as a bird lives in a nest. Habitats are important because they usually make someone e.g. something comfortable. A habitat is a natural home. Deforestation is when someone's e.g. something's habitat is destroyed and can never be the same again. I think it would be amazing for you to help your favourite animals and creatures survive deforestation and habitat destruction which is the same thing, by planting native plants and donating a dollar or two to a fundraising team for deforestation and habitat destruction. this is my work for a DLO about habitats and habitat destruction
