Extension Trip - Digital Nations 2030

The Extension students were very lucky to attend a Digital Nations 2030 Summit at Cordis Hotel. Our Extension group was one of the two schools that went, First we were gathered in the Creative Space (One of our Computer Rooms) to discuss what we will be doing at the Summit. Then we got on the bus and headed down to the Cordis Hotel in the City.

Everyone was very excited about all the new technology that we were going to try out, as soon as we got inside the building Zoe (OMG Tech worker) was introducing us to some code avengers, as we looked around the room we could see Coding games, Robots, Makey makey and a 3D Printer. We were split up into two groups, doing separate work, then it started getting loud and noisy from all the Photographers and Videographers, Even the Maori Television was there filming us.

What I got out of the Trip was experience over the technology that we used, skills for controlling  robots, information and Prizes, I won a Stickers, bars of chocolate and a code Avengers T-shirt.

Introducing Algebra

Splash Splash Splash

Racing through the gate entrance, I am keen for a swim especially in the hot weather, with the sun beaming down on our skin heating our body's. I take my t - shirt off and grab my googles, my brothers already jumped in a head of me for a swim.

The water felt refreshing and cold, we had an awesome time doing handstand competitions and seeing how many flips we could do underwater. The hand stand comp was to see how long you could hold your breathe under water, we did Oldest to Youngest, so my mother went first, she started and her score was 11 seconds, then Jordan (my brother) he unfortunately scored 7 seconds, then it was time for me, I started to breathe heavily before I started, I held my breathe for 24 seconds underwater and did a perfect hand stand formation WOW! Then it was time for my little brother Toby he scored 13 seconds which placed him 2nd. So the winner was ME!

As I dipped my head under the water it felt like I was floating in space like an astronaut, Fact: There is know gravity in water, it disperses in proportion to your weight. (In other words) Heavier objects sink faster, lighter objects sink slowly or don't sink at all. It was the perfect time to swim because as soon as we got in the car to go back home it started to rain heavily, we started the engine, and we were off.

3 Short Story's with Noah - Holiday's

     Furious Tide 

1. As I pushed forward through the Furious Tide,
    my legs felt the water surging powerfully against my skin,
    My teeth gritting every step I take.

    Leaping off

2. As my eyes scan the water for a spot to land,
    my feet grip on to the ledge, take a breathe,
    3...2...1 SPLASH!

   Waiting for the start

3. Sitting down in my set shaking in excitement,                                               
    waiting for the musical movie to start.
    The GREATEST SHOWMAN!

Part 1 Biscuiting

                                                                                       

As I slid through the water on an inflatable Biscuit, water sprayed in my eyes and I could barely see.
Have you ever been on a inflatable biscuit before? It looks a lot like the picture at the top of this piece
of writing. It is a inflatable raft that holds a portion of people at a time. in my family we have two biscuits
and they are similar to the one above the writing.

At the end of 2017 in the Christmas Holidays we had the chance to take our new boat out for a spin.
we had a boat before, but that was bad quality and wasn’t good, so my father decided to purchase a new
boat. As we walked down to the water and sat on the ramp we couldn’t see the boat insight,
so we sat there and waited and waited, until finally we saw the new boat speeding towards us.
Dad tied the rope to a hook under the motor so that it will pull the biscuit forward, Toby,
Camryn and I were the first to hop on and to test out the biscuit.

“Ready… 3..2..1”
