Reflections -  My few favourite photos were y close up and long  shot.  One photo that i took that was pretty affective I think was my long shot it had some really Dal colours.    The  close up photo I felt spoke for its self in a  retro design.   the only one i would change is the birds eye view if i had a bit more time i would of changed the photo.
My favourite photo was the long shot because it was beautiful.

Camp reflection

WAINUI CAMP, 2018

What is your best memory of Tōtara camp?

- Having dinner with my friends while watching the sun set through the windows
Wainui is one of the best places to go to watch the sunset so far on my list, its nice
to just relax and eat dinner with your friends and just catch up on everything.

What challenged you on camp and how did you get through this challenge?

- When we did high ropes I couldn't reach the top of the ladder and it frustrated me alot
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

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
