Labour Day

Labour Day

On the fourth Monday in October is Labour day it is a public holiday. The first official Labour day was celebrated on the second Wednesday in October in the 1900. We celebrate Labour day because in the 19th century New Zealand tried to claim the right for an 8 hour working day. In 1840 a carpenter called Samuel Parnell fought for this right and won. What did I do during Labour weekend I don’t know what to say so I had fun. In the weekend my cousin Elijah came and my uncle and aunty came we played with the cars mostly and for dinner we had lamb roast and literally the best ribs I have ever tasted. And we watched the All Blacks get some ridiculous tries. THE END

Learning in the making conference

Learning in the making conference

On Friday it was Ngatea Primary Schools 3rd learning in the making conference. My favourite workshop would have been hot dog pasta because you got to eat  it and I got taught  how to make it so I can make it whenever I want. I learnt some new drum skills and how to do some beats on the drums. Also in first aid I learnt how to do the figure of 8 and how to put somebodys arm in a sling. Lastly I did electronics and we made a l.e.d light light up. Then we played games of tag, duck, duck,       goose and even wink murderer.

Holiday recount of Rainbow End

Holiday recount of Rainbow End       h
In the holidays my family went to Rainbows end and we got to go on all the rides. But since it was on a timetable there were different things on at different  times so you could not just hop on a ride like you normally would. My favourite ride would of been the stratosfear or going in the motion master but in the stratosfear I could not go the whole way round because I was too short to so I just swung back and forth and it was fun. And for the motion master it felt like you were going down a hydra slide and it broke and you went to another dimension. And there were pirates fighting and sea snakes and massive octopuses then at the end you ended back where you were  when you started. This was a fun but annoying ride I went on, the bumper boats it was annoying because I got a really wet bum and my pants were wet but otherwise it was fantastic. This is a ride I forgot to mention in my favourites it's the (drum roll) rollercoaster. I thought this was really cool because you get to go upside down and really fast down and it feels like you're floating around then you stop. And that is the end of my recount goodbye.
