THE UNFORGETTABLE FOREST ADVENTURE !!!

      The unforgettable forest adventure !!!

 Hi my name is Caoimhe Harrison and today i'm gonna share some of my amazing writing with you. This story is about my orienteering adventures when went to Wooded camp site with my hub. Please enjoy. 

     The unforgettable forest adventure !!! 

One of my favourite activities on camp was by far the
amazing orienteering. The forest was a blanket of green.
My group was the fastest group to finish, we were as fast
as Usain Bolt running a world marathon. We only took
24 minutes, it was amazing because there were 5 people in
our group and the boys had 7 people. It seemed like they
didn't even know how to read a map! We had to wait half
an hour for the them. My dad (Phil) made us run the whole
way our legs were like jelly. I was as tired as a plane engine
after travelling around the world and back again
(but we won so thanks go to him). Victory tasted like
gold. It was so much fun I felt really great about it.
I can't wait for the next orienteering adventure.

For our writing we needed to make a doc called an s.u.w. It is where you write amazing storeys. Here is one of the best stories please enjoy! 

An unexpected visitor

Once upon a time in a far away land there lived a cute little fairy called Ellie. She had lived in her mushroom for over 50 years. She was born here in mushroom land she had her first steps here she went to school here and worked in the fields here all her adult life. Mushroom land was safe and nothing unexpected ever happened.  Each and every day her neighbours would attend their normal day jobs in an ordinary way. Every morning she would sit at her table tucking into a plate of steaming hot butterfly mushrooms on toast. Watching the ordinary world go by in its ordinary way. This morning seemed no different … until she peeked out of her window. The sight that had meet her eyes was not acceptable or ordinary at all. There was an unexpected visitor that had arrived. The visitor had grey and pink hair. She was a very unexpected character to enter mushroom land. Her personality was whack she acted like a rock star I wonder if she is and she is here to put on a show for us no one has ever done that before. Her name was Livi Larmonico she was putting up flyers about her show i'm definitely going to go. Livi was a total  rock star she was so pretty and talented “I can't wait to see her perform” shouted Ellie. So Ellie got really ready for the show and soon enough it was the night of the concert Livi was getting ready for her big show. The crowd were roaring their hearts out. But suddenly a spark came from the dj's control board it lit the stage on fire the whole entire crowd screamed in fear they all ran away except one… Livi was trap there was fire surrounding her. Ellie stopped when she heard Livi screaming ”help, someone please help me”. Ellie had to think fast she filled 3 buckets full of water she tried to throw them at the fire but instead she soaked Livi in water. She  tried again and this time she actually got the fire she made a little space for Livi to get out. They ran away from mushroom land and watched it all disappear soon enough mushroom land was just ashes, ashes lying on the ground. Mushroom land was gone no one ever stepped foot in mushroom land again.

Have you ever had an unexpected visitor visit your home ?

SAVE THE PLANET !!!

PBL SPEECH

For PBL in term two we worked on saving our environment. We all had to make or do something to help save the planet. Me and my group made a video it turned out great. We were able to use the green screen. Neila helped us use the green screen she was a big help. The people in my group were Beth, Sophie, Ariella and me.

STOP USING PLASTIC !!!

I think people of the world should ban plastic because plastic is  killing our Earth and if we have no Earth there is no us. ⬇

Firstly, if there is no plastic on our earth then the landfills will be
a lot smaller. Also with no plastic their will be a smaller amount
of landfills living on our wonderful world.  Landfills are replacing
a lot of land were trees could of been planted and grown into
beautiful forests, with Birds chirping around. It is so sad to think
that the people of our time are replacing what could of been a
huge forest but now it is a huge landfill.

Secondly, if you go to the sea and just look at the water lots
and lots of poor fish and sea turtles are getting filled with plastic. Then they die because of plastic, mainly plastic straws and single use plastic bags. These fish that are dying because of us, they were put on this Earth long before you and me. It is so sad to think that the people of this very century are dumping their plastic into the landfills with no heart  and no respect for the wonderful world. Do you know where most plastic ends up ? well it ends up in the sea. people think that it is okay to dump their rubbish in the sea just to kill the sea animals. Help the poor sea animals today in your normal human life and never in one billion years throw one little piece of plastic in the sea ever again. Each and every animal on Earth have as much right to be here as you and me. Come on help the Earth, we cannot afford to wait any longer. 

Most importantly if you want this world, your home, to be a better place stop cutting down trees! You are killing the birds that are now having to move to different habitats or homes almost every single day. Stop throwing away plastic in the sea and killing our poor sea animals that are already struggling because of the rising sea levels and climate change. Stop polluting our air Because soon enough we won't be able to breath clean air or drink fresh clean and unpolluted water. Animals should not require our permission to live on Earth. Animals were given the right to live here long before you and me.

 But I strongly believe that in the future  there will be no plastic whatsoever. I also hope that all of the sea  animals have a long life on a non plastic diet. I hope all the birds are safe from tree killers. So next time you throw plastic in a landfill think before you do it, if you don't do it you are basically saving the sea animals. Look down below for some ways you can help the wonderful world in you daily lives.⬇

1.Stop buying single use plastic.

2.If you are going in a car try get at least 2 or 3 people in the car at once.

3.If you do buy plastic try use it more than once.

4.Only buy reusable plastic.

5.If you see rubbish lying on the streets do the world a favour, pick it up.

6.Try solar power for your house.

Come on save the Earth, it needs our help. Without us it cannot survive.

Have you been doing anything to help the environment ?

All About Winter Sport

All about winter sport!
This winter sport season went great. I played In the netball B team the killer bees for St Francis Of Assisi Catholic School. My coach was Miss Parker she did a very good job at coaching us. In my team we had Lara, Megan, Santara, Ariella, Elsha, Cory, Sophie and me. We won four games but sadly we lost three. I missed three because I was on holiday. But it was actually two because we had to default for 1 game. Some of the challenges we faced during the season were. When it is cold it is harder to play, It is harder to play when you are marking a really tall player and finally when it is windy you throw the ball and it doesn't go in the right spot. The things I enjoyed the most about this winter sport season are. It is good to play a team sport, I get to play one of my favourite sports at least twice a week and finally it is fun getting on a bus and getting out of school for a while. Next year I think I am going to work a lot harder on my shooting and defence skills. But on the whole this winter sport season was awesome. It was so much fun and I am really looking forward to next years season. 

Questions:
Do you play winter sport ?
If so what sport do you play?
was your winter sport season successful ?

Lovely Lego

      lovely Lego

Yesterday a girl named Rachel who works at house of bricks. She Came to our school to teach us about team building.  She gave us three challenges to accomplish. The first challenge was bridge building. The bridge had to be approximately 30 to 40 cm. It had to hold books and 2 pencil cases. You had to work with a buddy or as a trio. I worked as a trio with Frankie T and Ariella. And we won yay.

 The second challenge was tower building. The tower had to be as tall as it could possibly be. It also had to be free standing. Again you have to work with a buddy or in a trio. I worked as a buddy with Ariella. We came in second place.

 For the third and final challenge was car racing. You had to make cars out of Technic Lego blocks and  normal Lego blocks. Then when your finished building your master pieces you had to race them and see how fast and how far the went. This time you can only be in a pair. I went with Ariella Again. That day was so much fun I really hope we can do it again some time soon.
