Kaden's Hanging Friend

Why I'm proud of it:
Because I did it the way I planned it and I put a lot of effort into it.
What I could have done to make it better:
I could have tried to make it bigger and put a picture on my body and I could have put in more body parts.

The Random Friend

I think the shirt was a bit tatty as well as the legs. I forgot to paper mache a nose
onto the face.

I love the top and the awesome beads that stand out!

Hanging friend

My hanging friend has a cap, a boat and a top and gecko eyes and mouth.
I could improve by using more colors and making the paint go all one way.

Sophie's Hanging Friend

Making the wool hair that was fun.
I enjoyed making the 3-D nose and doing paper mache.
Next time I will the make skin colour not so dark.

Timu's Hanging Friend

What I liked: I think I did well with the bear claw / it was Marley’s emblem. What I didn’t like: I think I could have cut out my eyes and mouth instead of leaving them square and have more body parts.

Angus

I think Angus went well because he was a big friend and I love his peace sign on the shirt.



I could have made Angus better if the glue around the glasses was tidier.

I like my hanging friend because its a bit different
and I like its socks.

I could of made it better by making some arms.

Jahdan's Hanging Friend

To improve on my Hanging friend I have to fix the legs and give them space so that they don’t swing all over the place.
I also need to put a nose so that it looks more realistic.
Next time when I make another Hanging friend I need to have arms so that it stays balanced and looks like a real person.

THE BEST THING I LIKE ABOUT MY HANGING FRIEND IS: The best thing I like is the face because the glasses for the eyes are real cool and the colour pattern on the face is impressive to me. JAHDAN

George

To Improve on my hanging friend I need to make a nose and make the legs straight.

What I liked about George is that he had a big mouth and a Koru on his shirt.

Things that worked well. Doing my nose went well because I paper mached my nose with my face then painted my nose red. The thing that didn't go well is that my legs had to be hot glue gunned on last and in the end I was last finished.

Super Bowl

“3, 2, 1 GO” the lifeguard says. Kath and I fly down the icky green coloured slide as my stomach reaches my mouth. In a matter of moments we whizz out of the tube, I forget my fear.

The unbearable sunlight is blinding but I’m having too much fun. As we approach the daunting, almost vertical tunnel the water circles around the air inflated tube like sharks snapping at snapper.

VROOM! We slip and slide until the end. KERRSPLOSH!!
Water flies everywhere as we come to an almighty STOP!

Pirates in Picton

Whoops I tumbled through a gap in the mooring line. “Arghh!”quick as a shot gun I grabbed the rope. I scrambled up onto the deck. The captain announced! “start rigging.” “Eye eye captain” I called. I went up to the bow of the ship. “I think it is going to be a bumpy ride!” I predicted.

Lonnekers

I pulled and heaved my wetsuit on. The hood
was like a tight helmet. Oooaaaeee rrroooeee I heaved my booties on and then my flexible flippers go over them. I am ready. I jump into the water as if I was a leaping seal. I swim around as if I am a fearful shark. It is deep a shiver comes up my spine a piece of seaweed slithers past my face. I scrambled in as if I was drowning. I swim into the shallow. I am safe!

The Chiller

As I am climbing the chiller the fear in me is making me shake with every move I make. I begin to get chills running down my spine. When I reach the top of the chiller I sprint to the end of the chiller and jump as high and as far as I possibly can. I am yelling all the way down...and time suddenly stops it feels like I am free falling with style in slow mo.
I hit the water with a bomb exploding splash. I am under water for a long time I think I might drown. Thanks to my 6mm wet suit I float back to the surface I stick my head right out of the water. With relief I suck in huge amounts of air. I see a glimpse of the others as they hit the water with an enormous splash. Mini waves splashed under the wharf. The three of us swam to the beach with what strength we had left. I pushed my self to the limit and went at top speed I was coming first and beating every one else. I was gliding across the water I felt the warmth of my wet suit. Stopping and floating on top of the water I had never felt so relaxed in my life. As we got to the sunny beach we rested and later we went back home for a nice beautiful hot shower.

Boggie board

The sun shone the waves splashed as I jumped onto my boggie board. Smash smash smash as I raced through the clear salty sea then BANG a wave smashed against my boggie board. I soar through the water. The rough sand flies through my hair then splash I land flat on the sand.

Speedway

As we rev our engines the elastic is stretching tighter & tighter. PING!! I dropped the clutch and rammed the accelerator. I speed off sliding around the first corner. I speed down the straight. The second corner is approaching, throttle full I slowly turn the bike. I was sliding and dirt is flying. I am in 2nd place. Our bikes are screaming now. As I approach the corner I am starting to slide. I turn the throttle one too many revs. I slide out.  The bike turned off.  I rise up and grab the clutch and heave the bike into the middle of the track. I am so disappointed.

Hydro sliding

“Man this is so tiring.” We are sprinting up the endless stairs. I look out the side I feel dizzy.
Finally I get to the top. There is a fabulously fast slide and an old man slow slide “I’m going on the fast one!” I shout. I slipped and slid. Wow wow the tunnel curved and I shot out the end! I hit the water with a tremendous splash!

The Christmas Hangi

The Christmas Hangi
Wooosh! A blast of hot steam puffed out like a train as we took off the hot sheets. We heaved out the wire case. There were cabbage leaves on the bottom so the Hangi didn't burn. There were colourful roast veggies and the most tenderest juiciest wild pork ever mixed together with a smell of manuka.

Thunder Waves!

The huge wave towered high above the boat. It sped across the astonishingly big wave and went straight into the powerful cool air. The boat crashed back into the rolling safe sea as I sighed with relief!
