This week we are going to start swimming in the pool and I hope we will get class swims after lunch as the teachers are trying to sort times for class swims.

Festival

On Sunday the 26th of October we had our Ngatimoti Festival.

I helped Hobbit set up the music truck on Saturday before the Festival. I helped set up the stage by placing the flooring. I was not good with the screw driver but I tried.

I got up early on Sunday and came down to the Festival. We walked for ages because we had to park a long way away. Mum had to work at the Gate so mum gave me some money to spend at the Festival while she was working. I got lots of cool things. I then had to work on the Plant Stall. We had been working hard in class to grow and look after the plants to sell. 

I had to use a calculator to help work out the right amount to charge and change to give back. I also worked on the cow pat bing stand, which is where people buy a square and if the cow poops in that square then they win a prize. 

My favourite thing was dancing at the Festival.

Pet Day

 Pet Day

Last Friday was Pet Day at school.

My sister and I brought two rabbits to school.

Our rabbits are called Bun Bun and Cinnamon. 

They are brown rabbits and they eat juicy grass and they also like scraps, especially carrots.

They don't have thick hair so we don’t have to brush them but they do shed hair everywhere.

Bun Bun and Cinnamon live in a large rabbit hutch. They get all their exercise in the hutch. Sometimes we get them out and play with them. They like lots of cuddles. They can be scratchy.

Bun Bun and Cinnamon both won prizes at the Pet Day.

 About Teapot Valley

We went ziplining and crate stacking. My favourite thing was the ziplining, because at first I was really scared, when I was at the top of the tower and when I got to the bottom of it I was not scared.

Winter Tournament

 On Thursday we did a Winter Tournament . 

Ngatimoti Two won and got gifted with a mini chocolate bar with a juicy too.

At least Ngatimoti One got a juicy before Ngatimoti Two,  so it was fair!
