Awesome Ski Trip (Temple Basin)
When I woke up I was nervous and pumped to go skiing when we got to school I loaded my stuff into a car and we went to temple basin goods lift and we loaded up our stuff then we had to drive a bit more down the road and we started walking up the mountain it was a really hard walk up because it got really steep. When we got up to temple basin lodge we went in and had some lunch and put our stuff in our bunk rooms then it was finally time to go skiing! at first, we had to get our boots and skis I was amazed how heavy ski boots are then we went and played on a hill that was just outside the lodge I walked all the way to the top and slid all the way down doing 180s and 360s it was really fun by this point everyone had got into their ski boots and we got to try start skiing at first I had no idea what so ever I was doing I got told how to do a pizza and I went down the mountain and crashed I knew this was a small crash and I had bigger crashes to come but luckily I Liked crashing I found it funny and cool. We had to walk up the mountain and ski down falling over at least 30 times I found it really boring at first.
The next day Grace helped me learn how to ski because we got some people that could already ski helping the people that could not ski I learned a lot from her after lunch we had to do the dishes we had so many dishes it was funny it took us an hour I think all I wanted to do was get back out there and ski because my friends were starting to go on the tow rope when I got back onto the ski field I got to go on the tow rope at first I was really nervous because I knew it was going to be hard skiing down the mountain I got up to where I wanted to be and I got off the rope and falling over I got back up put my skis on and tried to ski down the mountain I got almost to the end and I crashed going really fast I slid really far down the mountain then after I stopped sliding I got back up and got my skis that were 10m away from me. After about 15 runs down the mountain I could finally ski better than what I thought I can the next day ski was totally different in the morning because the snow was really slippery and I was falling over a lot at first then I started to get better later in that day I got a turning season with Steve (Kate's Dad) And it helped me a lot it was putting my weight on the other ski and little things like that but it helped a lot this made me be able to turn around markers and stuff like that.
Overall, I think this is the best challenge and I want to go skiing again for sure!

My French Learning
The school teachers speak french and also teach french in some parts of Belgium
Belgium also has a lot of french bakeries and shops such as Wax. It is a bakery frituur snacks which is a snack shop.
Belgian French is the variety of French spoken mainly among the French Community of Belgium, alongside related Oïl languages of the region such as Walloon, Picard, Champenois and Lorrain
In France, the number ‘seventy’ is ‘soixante-dix’. This literally translates as ‘sixty-ten’. This is particularly confusing for a non-native speaker of French as one hears the number start with ‘soixante’ but in fact it is ‘seventy’ and not ‘sixty’ as would be logical. Fortunately, Belgians say ‘septante’ instead. This is easier to learn as ‘septante’ comes from sept seven

Week Reflection T3 W2
This week we the normal. For maths I got as many yellows as I can I am up to the Year 7/8 Stage now and I want to be able to smash them by the end of the year. We have started a new debate that is Superman will always defeat batman I'm on the CON Side that means I am for batman and I am happy about it because I like batman. I think that batman is a better hero because if superman did not have the sun he would not have his powers because his powers are made by the sun. The ICT Team and I started our training people with iMovie and we could not do much training because most of the time we had to spend updating and downloading IMovie

Mid Year Reflection
At the beginning of the year, I made some dumb decisions. And I think that I have stopped doing a lot of them. By the time I get to the end of the year I hope that I don't do a lot of the stupid stuff I did at the start of the year like not doing the full run that time and I hope I don't do anything like that at the end of the year. These are some of my goals for the end of the year
1. For the run I want to get into the low 12 and I want to be able to get that every run that i don't have a cold because that messes with my breathing and it makes be feel like that i am going to die when I am running
2. Make sure My Team and I (The ICT Committee) Do our best in helping with the film festival and make sure the teachers our happy with what we are doing for them and they get what they want at the end of it.
3. At the end of the year I hope that I where i should be with my Maths, Reading And Writing before the end of the year
So these are my goals that I want to have done by the end of the year.
Thanks for reading these and I will see you in the next post.

Sea Kayaking Challenge #3
When I woke up I was scared and excited. When I got to School it was wet cold and raining I was really mad that it was raining because we got wet really quick. Mr. S-W Checked my bag to make sure I all the gear that was needed for the trip. After the bell rang it was almost time to get in the car and get going to Mitchell's. We finally got to Mitchells it was still raining and it was bad because it was time to pack our sea kayaks since you could not take a full bag you had to unpack your stuff and put them into we compartments in the kayak it was hard for me to get my stuff in. After we finished packing the kayak we got to have some lunch. When it was time to get into the kayak Isaac And me Where in a double so it was a bit harder to get into the water when we finally got it in the water we went out a bit dropped down the rudder and went to test out our kayak our rudder was pretty messed up we went really fast at the bay and I turned it the wrong way we almost went into a bush I was lucky I could just turn it out of the way. With the double kayaks, the person in the back to move the kayak (Turn the rudder) That was me I was in the back of the kayak It was fun driving it the back part was that since Connor P Was in the back of his double he licked crashing into me and Isaac. It had taken us an hour to get to Bain Bay the first thing we had to do was unpack the kayaks. We set up the tent that was a bit of a challenge for us the pain was after we set up our tent people went inside it and made it all muddy. All I can say is that this trip was awesome
BRING IT ON!!!

Rock Climbing and Abseiling
Yesterday I woke up so pump to get to school so I could talk to my friends about the rock climb half of you went yesterday and the other half is going today. When we got there I really wanted to just get into the climbing we had to do some abseil practice when we first got there so we know what we are doing when we go down the hill. Then it was finally time for my group to get to go rock climbing I went third Grace C, Connor P. Then I got to go I made it all the way to the top it was easy for me, When I was coming down I fell and hit my hand on rock and cut the side of my knuckle up and some we marks on the side of my hand, when I got down my hand, was so painful. The worst part was that I had to climb up out of the cove so I could get some plasters. They did not have any normal plasters they had they did not have some simple plasters it was kinda funny and bad at the same time, So they had to give me some plaster stuff. I Just sat down and tried to get Isaac K To abseil down. I was so mad that I had hurt my hand because it went all numb and I could not move it or get a grip on it so I could not abseil. One of the best parts of the trip was watching Connor P He went to go down the hill he was over the edge he could not do it he came up and he was just like YOLO and went right over the edge and all the way over and down nobody could not believe that he had just done that. Isaac M Done the same thing he was on the edge closed his eyes and had a breath and just went for it.
IT WAS AWESOME!
IT WAS AWESOME!
