Facts about war

  • The second world war ended when America dropped the atom bomb on Japan and Japan surrendered.
  • Most of the ANZAC's died when they landed on the wrong beach in Gallipoli at ANZAC cove.
  • When white flags were raised that meant to tell the enemy to hold on and not to shoot for they were entering no mans land.
  • Soldiers would use a periscope instead of popping their head up because if they did they would get shot at.
  • Soldiers put there helmets on top of the trench and if the enemy shot at it that would mean the enemy was still out and it wasn't safe.

muesum trip

On monday 19th we went to the muesum. It was so fun.The best thing about the muesum was when we did was watch the play. The least thing was it was raning. That made me disapointed. But ather wise it was really fun. The intreasting part about the muesum trip was when all the names were on this white wall. The names were careved in at it felt nice. There was people with the same last name and i saw my gt gt on the wall.

Positive: I really enjoyed the water slide because even Mrs Stewart joined in and you would slide down really fast but it depends on how much momentum you built.

Minus: It was sad that we couldn't sleep in our tents because it would feel like we would be in Omana and the teachers wouldn't just stare at you.

Interesting: It was really interesting when the gas cooker set on fire because no one backed away everyone kept moving forward to get a better look.

Craziness in the swimming pool!!!! I really enjoyed camp it was fun. One positive thing was I got to have fun with my class instead of being in my teacher role all day. One negetive thing was not sleeping in tents after all we were meant to be camping, but I guess all the rain stopped us from doing that. One interesting thing was when the gas cooker caught fire....scary! I hope everyone had fun at camp :)

Camp 2012 at school

Hey room 7!!

Camp was so awesome,  don't you just wanna do it all over again.
Here is something that reflects on my time at camp.

A positive thing about camp was the Warterslide when room 7 made Mrs Stewart go down the warterslide it was so funny!A negetive thing about camp was when we had the challenge to put up the tents  by ourselves it sucked!A interesting thing about camp was when the barbeque caught on fire.

Camp 2012

Hey Room 7!

Camp was so awesome!!! So here is a little sort of review to prove it:

A positive thing about camp was eating of course, who didn't enjoy that?? Expecially dessert, that was the best. A negetive thing about camp was putting up tents, It was to hard, and I felt lazy at the time. An Interesting was going on the waterslide!! Dish washing liquid is the best way to go down! Even Mrs Stewart gave us some entertanement!! Te he!
I wish we could do camp all over again...camp is the BOMB!!! -Micala
