Planting Seeds

 

Today Sarah came to our class room. We got into groups. I was with Sofia, Olivia, Ben, Louis and Jasper.  We got to plant some Kōwhai , and Manuka seeds. First we got told how deep to put the Kowhai seeds.  We had to put them in as deep as the seed was in height. We used popcical sticks to tell what was in the soil. Then we had to carry the pots down to the propagation tunnel. Next we did the Manuka seeds. They were tiny. We had to sprinkle the seeds over some small holes. We watered the seed with a spray bottle.  Then we carried them to the propagation tunnel again.  Have you ever planted some seeds?

Planting Kōwhai Seeds

 Today Me, Xanthe, Ben, Haki, Lincoln, and Louis planted Kōwhai seeds. There was 104 seeds. We had to put the seeds in egg cartons. Mrs Hickford soaked the seeds in water and napkins.  We had to fill the egg cartons with compost and then add the seeds. My favourite part was putting in the compost.  Next someone would put in some water.  

Cross Country

This is a photo of me doing cross country. We did it round the cycle track.  The year fours had to do three laps. I was super fun because it went into the fort. I came first out of everyone in my age group. I even bet the boys!!! We had to start on the field, go to the cycle track, up to the fort, out of the fort, back in the fort, down the ditch and back out onto the field. I was hard to get up the muddy parts. I love cross country!!!

Climbing Mt George

On the weekend I climbed Mt George with my Mum, Dad, Finnian, Isla, Lincoln, Sasha and Warrick. It was so much FUN😀😀!!! Have you ever done it?

My Weekend

On the weekend my Nana and Grandad came over.  We went to Point Elisabeth. We walked the track. I also seen my friends Smonie, Eva, Jola and Carolina there. First we walked up a steep hill and came to a viewing point. Then we carried on walking. We were going to walk to the top. After walking for a while we came to a part where there was netting. The netting was there to stop us going to far over the edge. It looked like there had been a rock fall. There was also a seat. We walked carefully past the seat and netting.  It was nice in the shade. We went across a bridge. Some part's were steeper then other's. Next we came out into the sun. I could tell we were close because I had done it before. We walked and came to a sign. The sign had pictures of seal's and dolphin's. Soon we came to the top. We looked for some dolphin's or seal's but there were none. Mabye next time there will be. We had some lunch and went back down the track.  Have you been on Point Elisabeth track?

The Fort

I love the fort because it is a good place to hide and play games. My favourite place in the fort is up the back where the fence is. Me, Lucy and Olivia play spy's. I also like climbing up the big hill. The fort is fun. I love running around the fort. Sometimes I slip over in the fort.  The fort is great for running, spying and hiding.  It is one of my favourite places.🌿🌿 This is a picture of the fort.
