Market Day!

WALT: write and interesting and detailed recount.

Hooray it is was market day! Selling products, Buying products and enjoying products.

People excitingly waiting in line to withdraw money in order to buy products. Everyone  rushing  as they set up workshops for the products they have made.

Market day! All term we have been working hard on products to sell. There are five different groups where students have been put into, Custom Stationery, Kitchen,  Jewels and accessories, Toys and Home ware. I was put in Toys. I make fun toys for students to play with.  Every week we get a chance to go to our enterprise groups and make our products to sell on this big market day.

Before all the buying selling we had to set up our stalls.  As setting up my station there was a row of desks not just for my station it was for others as well. i only took two desks. I hanged a poster on it advertising my products so  students can come and buy it. I had a partner with me helping me set up the station. Once we finished setting up our station we waited for our teachers instructions.

I had a chance to swap with my partner which means she is selling the products while i get to go shop around students stations. In the bay area was the Kitchen group. Students were selling ice blocks, cakes hot chips and brownies. it was feeling pretty hot for me so i decided i’d buy me and watermelon flavoured ice-block. It was so delicious.

What an awesome experience I had that Friday. I enjoyed a lot of things. But there was one thing I wasn't really happy of. I didn't really finish making students orders. Other than that I really enjoyed it.

Camp !!

Have you ever been on a camp on your school field? Well last week something like that happened on our school field. Year 5’s and 6’s had a School Camp on the School field.

At Camp each student is put in a group. The names of the groups are Matapono E, The Commitments, True crew, Real Dealz and Honest Squad. We we’re given points each time we we’re sitting up, being quick getting our gear and being the best team. I was put in a group called ‘Honest Squad’. My Teacher was Miss Lavakula. The leaders for the team was Rosalina and TJ. We slept in tents. Some tents had three or two people sleeping in there. In my tent i slept with Sulieti and Loseli.

The first Activity that we done was sports. It didn't feel like sport it felt like free time we got to do some table tennis, basketball and roller skating while we were doing that Miss Lavakula played some music. I've got to say it was like Honest Squad hardly made noise while playing sports.

While i was  playing Basketball I saw Sulieti struggling with the roller-skates, she was like hugging the wall and laughing, because she was falling down. I was going to help her up but she was fine she said.

I will tell you the next thing that I enjoyed the most. Well I've got to say but what i enjoyed the most was ‘Kayaking’. So we headed down to the beach in our togs ready for kayaking. It was my first time doing kayaking because last year I didn't  come. We had two year eight boys who were able to demonstrate what we had to do. So I first went on a double Kayak with my friend Loseli. I was in front and she was at the back of the kayak. The person at the back has to do the same thing as the person in the front. I felt like i wanted to go on a single so then we had to get off and let other people on the double. I kept on crashing into other people’s kayak’s

Camp was so fun and i enjoyed all the fun activities that the teachers provided. I look forward on going on another camp.

I also think that I learnt some things during camp.
