The sun was boiling out in the dry bushes full of prickles everyone was sweating heavily when someone goes off again 'how long till we get there , he asked in frustration 'only five more minutes and we'll be there the instructor says, those were the most longest most scorching hot five minutes of the trip. Finally the group was there, "here we are the instructor echoed across the valleys, i looked up away from my soggy shoes buried in the hot crystallised dirt full of stones, when we gazed at the most beautiful sight, the crystal green water shined back at our faces, the children smiled they threw their clothes off due to the fact they had togs underneath, sprinting towards the glistening water, children leaped into the pure cold water, h20 bubbles orbed upwards towards the surface still under the water I took soe time to think, how lucky i am.

Student Reflection:
In my writing, one of my goals is to attempt complex punctuation
I did use one of these goals because I used two sentences with complex punctuation

In my writing, one of my goals is to use different sentence beginnings and lengths
I did use this goal in my writing.

My next step is to use paragraphs with a topic sentence and supporting detail.

Teacher Comment: Soph, sounds like it was a long walk! You've used some powerful adjectives in this piece of writing to describe what you experienced. Make sure you use the right structure and layout for the task next time. This was a moment in time.

WAINUI CAMP, 2018
What is your best memory of Tōtara camp?

but my friends and instructors made me feel better about it and i tried once more and i got
it.
How did you show Active Listening on camp and why was it important?
- i showed active listening when we were in the hall and dining area by reminding my self over and over don't talk over the teachers/instructors, it is very important in camp to listen to your instructors during activities because of health and safety reasons

My letter to Mr Hipkins



Kaiapoi North School
278 Williams St
Kaiapoi 7630 

Ministry of education 
Government buildings 
Wellington 

Tue 20th Feb
Dear Mr Hipkins
My name is Sophie Renee and I attend Kns
I am writing this letter to you because the heat in our Tiwai senior hubs have been very humid.
And since you are such a great person we knew we could come to you for this small favor.
Approximately 136 children run into class from a scorching hot lunchtime.
All hot all sweaty and have to squish onto the mat all hot all sweaty and all want some fresh air.

Air conditioning would help us learn more and the heart wouldn't bother us. on that note i would like to thank you for listening.
Yours sincerely,

Sophie Renee
