Camp at Mountain Valley

Reading Term 4

WALT: listen to a novel and reflect on the story as we think about the characters, setting, plot and the author's purpose.

One of the activities I have done for hatchet was this, we had to draw cover pages in our reading book 

These were the original cover pages. We used the app workspace, as you can see above.

P.E Athletics

WALT: develop fundamental skills required for athletics 

WILF: - Correct technique for throwing the discus and shotput

Correct technique for long jump and high jump

Passing the baton accurately in relay sprints

I am proud of myself for giving it a go even though I'm not a sporty kind of person, and because I pulled a muscle in my rib and still did some activities.

It was a challenge for me to throw the shot-put but I tried my best and I got past the second line.

My next step is to keep practicing shot-put and try my best to get past the third line.

Next year I would like to be able to do all activities without fail, to do this I will have to practise and practise and practise.

My best event was long jump because even though I had a sore rib, I tried and I did really well.

WALT: develop the skills or batting, bowling, throwing, and fielding in cricket

WILF: 

- overarm throwing when fielding

- catching with hands held like a basket

- straight arm bowling

- eyes on the ball and move the bat all the way through when batting

The skill I am best at is catching with hands like a basket because I have got the hang of it. My next step is to improve my straight arm bowling.

Excellence WordPack

WALT:  display excellence in all that we do

WILF: has been 'me' displaying 'my best, a can do attitude' in different situations, environments and in my learning.

Next Step:  I believe I still need to work on showing excellence in my maths I will do my best to do this in 2017. 

Camp Thankyou letter to Chris

Dear Chris,

I am writing to you because I want to say thank you for helping not only me, but helping everyone else around you. You have left your home, family and gave up your time and work to come and be a part of camp so thank you so much, (although when we played lollies or the bag, you should've gave the lollies to me). 

I loved every single part of camp, but the best highlight at camp, and what activity I loved the most was rafting. I was super scared at the beginning and didn't know if I would like it or not, but then I overcame my fear, jumped in the raft, and off we went into the shallow, refreshing water. Even though it rained a little bit, I still LOVED it!

The most challenging part of camp for me was certainly NOT the mud run at all even though it is quite hard, it wasn't challenging because I was with you, in your group. I liked it in the other groups as well, (but don't tell, I loved it in your group the most because you helped me soooooo much). If I really had to choose one challenging activity it would have to be orienteering because sadly, you weren't in my group helping everyone so wonderfully like you always do. But Mark Fowler was still great (not as great as you though) :)

My second highlight of camp was of course the mud run, not only cause of your awesome help we came first, but because I don't really get to play and run around in mud very often! The mud run was AWESOME!! My favourite part of the mud run was the big mudslide, that was even more AWESOME!

I packed rain coats, wind breakers, thermals, warm as clothes and I didn't even wear them because of the great weather we had! Luckily I still packed shorts and t-shirts. Man, wasn't the weather just wonderful? (That was also a great part of camp!!) 

Anyway, all I wanted to say was… THANKYOU!!!!!!  

Sincerely yours, Sophie Beale
