Adventure

This week in writing we had to write about adventure

Today I went on an adventure up north we had lots of fun in the car seeing lots of cool stuff like a waterfall. When we saw cars driving thru this drive way leading to the waterfall.we went to have a look at the people jumping of the waterfall when we went out of our car we looked at these people doing cool as stunts.

The really cool trick that i saw was a man doing a back flip off the water fall. After that we went for a swim i went to go inside and it was so deep that you couldn't even touch the ground when i was going towards the waterfall i saw people going under the waterfall then i went to try it out and it was so hard that you couldn't even keep your eyes open.

The water was always going into my eyes when it was getting dark i was this man lighting some fire works up into the air it was so loud when they were finished we saw the security saying that we have to get out cause they close at 8.30am.

When we got out we got changed and went into the car.and started to still carry on up north when we got there we got our stuff out of the car then we got ready to go to bed then when it was morning my Nan made us some scrambled eggs on toast with bacon.

When we finished break fast we went to help out around the house like doing the dishes and doing the beds after we were done we went for another adventure to look around when we were walking around we saw people rock climbing on the rocks.

When i saw a beach i went back to the car and told my cousin to get his stuff so we could go to the beach for a swim when my mum was trying to look for us she said we had to come back for lunch.So we go out then we got changed then when we came back we had chicken sandwich.

After i was finished eating my chicken sandwich i was waiting for my cousin to finish so we could go back but my mum said we had to have a break when we were waiting two minutes.we couldn't be bothered going so we went for a look around when it was getting dark.

I saw a van stopping at my nans house when they stopped at my Nans house it was my cousins when they got out my cousin asked if they wanted to play spot light.so my cousin got the torch and we all had to hide from him.when he was finished counting to twenty.the first one person that he found first was my.

Tamaki Food Tech

Friday 14th October 2016


Today I got ready to go to Tamaki We were doing cocking with miss Tuipolotu and she was teaching us how to do chocolate chip cookies.when we went in side we had to put our bags in this room then when we put our bags in to the room we had to get a apron.

The ingratiates that we had to use was butter sugar and egg when we mixed it all up it looked like cream but yellow when we put the flour in we sired it up then it went harder and harder when we took it out it was soft when we touched it.

Then we broke it up in to nine pieces for me and Moses and Taki when it was all broken up in to nine pieces we rolled it up into Little pieces when it was ready to put it into the oven we got the tray then we put the cookies on to the tray.When we put it in the oven we were looking at the cookies and we could see that is was getting bigger and bigger.

When they were in the oven we were cleaning the dishes when we were finished doing our dishes we went to have a look on our cookies when we looked at our cookies we saw that it still need a little bit time.when we went to check again they were ready.when i lifted the tray out of the oven it was hot.

After that we had a little taste off the cookie it was nice but miss Tuipolotu said we had to let it cool down so it doesn't brake fast cause it will be to soft but if you let it cool down then it will be kind of hard so it doesn't brake fast.

Then when the bell rang we put our chair in then we said bye to miss Tuipolotu after that we were just waiting for the Glenbrae kids to come out.when every on came out we went to walk back to 
Glenbrae school.
