I thought the pahurehure inlet create was very fun since you got to do it in a group and it was very fun. The pahurehure inlet boardwalk was very fun i just liked the feeling of not being school during it i liked how i got to see multiple birds that i normally don't see that much i saw a pukeko a house sparrow some seagulls and many other animals i loved the pahurehure inlet create and boardwalk.

Camp was usual enough
Camp was usual enough
It had a bouncy trampoline with kids being flinged off every little while, a swing that would send you flying off, an obstacle course called the low ropes that I never went to. Me and my friend Robert ate biscuits in the hot sun with our sunscreen on, I rolled down the hill getting bugs and grass all over me, I dozed off in the hot sun on the hammock Robert nearly got launched off the hammock a big one though it could hold up to seven people. Doing the confidence course with Aiden and Robert. Aiden nearly fell off the tightrope across the river but luckily there were these ropes that you grab onto for mobility but you can still fall off.Me and Aarav did nothing important.

Golden orbweaver spider
The golden orb weaver spider is very terrifying but it is normally not aggressive but if provoked it's bite can hurt but won't kill you it would just be very unpleasant.
A female orb weaver spider can have abdomen as big as 30 millimeters long with spiders the females are the dominant ones the males don't live as long as the females.
The golden orb weaver spider is also known as the banana spider its kinda the same name as the brazilian wandering spider because they are both mostly found in banana cases that are being shipped across the country but this spider isn't even close to as dangerous as the brazilian wandering spider since the brazilian wandering spider is the most venomous spider in the world it is very deadly but they live mostly in brazil. The golden orbweaver spider mostly lives in hot places like australia and some parts of america and they also live in asia.
I am going to camp and this is how i feel
I am going to camp and this is how i feel about it.
I am thrilled to go to camp. I went to camp Raglan before with my family it was a long long drive. Last time there were tons of blue bottles on the beaches surface because it was summer when i went last time i also went with my little cousin.
Last time i thought it was really fun i just love the idea of trying to survive out in the wilderness. I even watch survival shows with my mum and dad its where they have to survive out in a deadly location for 21 days. I think out of all of the activities from camp paintball will be the most fun because at home i play a lot of shooter games and games with monsters that you have to kill so basically this paintball is like a shooter game in real life for me. But it's very dangerous. The paintballs can really hurt if you have no helmet or anything to protect you.
I can get about 85 or 80 wpm on nitro type so my hand coordination is better than average since average is only 40 wpm so my wpm is double the average wpm. Most of my friends can only get 40 or 30 as their normal. Benjamin can get 60 though as his top speed which is quite high since my normal is 70 but his normal is 50 and roberts top is 50.
For the food at camp i'm quite picky. The teachers said that we'll be eating cookies and maybe cakes that the other parents bring in so i'll be fine because at home i never like eating the veggies my mum and dad get for me i only have like a little bite and then i just don't eat it because i don't like the taste. So at camp i think i will be fine. I just cant wait for camp.

Writing W3 T4
Ahhhhh, waking up on a nice sunny morning was brilliant. I can see the small inlet standing still with big sticks on the ground ready to poke your foot and make it bleed when the tiny pieces of wood stick in your foot. The small inlet was standing still and it was a perfect day for FISHING! I sprinted down to the small wooden dock reaching out into the water, the water standing still. I quickly pulled out my bait fishing line and fishing rod. I cast my fishing line into the water with the little worm squirming on the fishing line ready to be eaten. I felt a strong tug pulling me in the water it pulled me in. I twisted and I turned like the worm on the line desperate to get out of the water. I saw a huge fin coming towards me. I quickly ran through the water I was sinking as the mud pulled me down and the water slowed down my running. I saw the pointy sticks and narrowly dodged them. If I stepped on them my foot might start to bleed because they're so pointy and sharp. It clicked. I knew what I could do but I had to lure the shark one more time. I ran as fast as I could dodging the sharp sticks. I felt the mud reaching higher and higher up my body. It had just engulfed my shins. I then felt no tugging on my legs and I was out. I quickly ran inside rubbing the mud onto my grey carpet making it dark brown in some spots. I grabbed some more bait and ran back to the dock. I cast my fishing rod and waited silently waiting for it to bite and to tug me down. It bit down and pulled me down back into the water. I quickly grabbed the stick off the ground and kept on stabbing the shark. Whack Whack whack the shark turned upside down as the blood poured out. I wonder if there were any more sharks.

By Tim Upperton and Jet May
At the end of the driveway the world is silent.
At the end of the driveway the world is frozen.
Kids sprinted to the front gate.
Kids passed cars and roads.
In swirly roads and foggy mornings kids shivered walking to school with their sister and brothers.
This girl sprints this boy tags not yet seeing not yet knowing.
That what's gone is a new beginning.
That what begins is already growing.
Big then bigger.
Adults, with their confident faces rush by in cars to adult places.

The haka is supposed to welcome or intimidate if done well the haka makes me feel scared as they grow stronger together i feel weaker and they feel stronger the gap of strength and weakness grows as they do every action together at the same time every word at the same time. There moves they only understood as a group every action they knew what to do they were getting stronger to be ready for everything the haka was empowering them they were flowing with energy every word every action.

My name is Adam i wake up at 7 o'clock every morning but weirdly i got woken up just before the sun rised my mum and dad were also woken up by the sound of banging on our door the men marched through our wooden door knocking it down as they come through.
My mum and dad got asked a series of question by these people wearing all black uniforms they were very hard to see. They first asked if they could be in the country and wanted to see their passports visas and other stuff that declared there aloud to be in the country they even showed mine. My Mum and Dad both hopped back in to bed after that incident.
I asked what happened they said that it was a dawn raid they happen to mostly brown people and they happen because of people called overstayers people that shouldn't be in the country because they don't have a permit or right to live here that's mostly why they come into peoples houses but i don't think it it is right for them to do that at this hour though.
But there has been rumors about a group called the polynesian panthers who stand up to this. After that my parents joined that group the polynesian panthers saw everything happening to other people it horrified them so one day the polynesian panthers went and raided a government official they were right before the front door as they took a step and shouted. "WE WANT TO SEE YOUR HANDS UP WITH YOUR PASSPORT OUT!" said dad. The man then said i'll call the police get out of here. We quickly ran back in the car and drove back.
The next day my mum and dad were back home and were listening to the radio they herd the government official said they woke me up at such a ungodly hour they then saw how it was effecting other people.

So Adam and his dad live in a mansion Adams mum has won twenty times in her whole career of golf each win she gets around two million dollars. Adam for fun does badminton he likes to smash people and show that he's not small because he's very short. Adam likes to smash people when they call him short at badminton. Adam is also very selfish. On his birthday he hogged the whole cake to himself but no one came only his mum and dad.

My persuasive writing on why you should grow your own vegetables
I think that everyone should grow their own vegetables because it is good for the environment. Also, you don't have to keep buying from the shop all the time and they will be nice and fresh so they will be good to eat. Another reason why you should grow your own vegetables is because so you can get the vegetables you want because at the supermarket the vegetables at the shop could be sold out or they might not have the vegetable some people also like to garden and to watch plants grow for self satisfaction. Also you can do gardening as an exercise to get outside and do something for your body and to burn off fat that you ate earlier. Another reason why is some people live far from shops and supermarkets. Overall it is more efficient and practical for people to grow vegetables.
I have a garden with my parents but all the plants died and the vegetables because we forgot to water them but i normally would water them but i forget normally and when i went on holiday my dad was still at the house painting and they all died so it would of been better and i would probably eat more vegetables if we still had our plants.
