Coolest Debate ever !!!


Class Debate #6
This week we had our 6th debate the subject was "trophy hunting is okay," I was on the con team which means I wasn't for it. I think this was the most fun debate so far, mostly because I was on the side that I wanted, and I got to do a crossfire which is always fun. I have learnt so much from debating this year, like how to search scholarly websites and also I have got confident in talking in front of people, and I really hope that they do debating in high school.

Temple basin ski trip

Skiing in temple basin was such a great experience there were so many highlights like when Kate
fell off the nutcracker or when I fell into a pile of rocks and Kate stood there laughing at me. It was an amazing experience something that was really cool was when Kate, George and I made it to the top and you could see the road and it didn't even look like you had to walk that far to get there. the walk up was killer I felt like I had no legs after that walk but the walk down was not so bad but I fell over a lot in the snow it was funny when we were walking down we had walkies talkies Kate and grace had one and Hannah and I had one we all had code names Kate was chocolate fudge, grace was strawberry sundae, Hannah was caramel swirl and I was beetroot for some weird reason. all together it was a great experience and I hope to do it again one day!!!

Rafting

Yesterday was one of the funniest days of my life, me and half of my class went rafting in the grey river. my favourite part of the whole experience was definitely going over the massive rapids I was so scared the whole time at one point I thought that I would just jump out of the raft because I was sure that we were going to flip, I screamed so loud that you could probably hear me from the north island.

I loved not just the rafting but getting to hang out with my friends. cooking was also a highlight for me apart from when I walk away to clean a plate and I leave Calder in charge then when I come back they are
our cooked pasta all over the ground so the pasta that we ate tasted a bit like grass.

I loved rafting so much because it took me way out of my comfort zone it is a really good experience and I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Rock climbing and abseiling

Last week we went rock climbing and abseiling I was super nervous about everything I was going back in my head about the likelihood of the rope snapping or me falling to my death but I knew that I was just worrying too much. I was the first person down the abseil my main reason was because I wanted to get it over and done with but when I was down the bottom I wanted to go down again, it felt like I had just come off a rollercoaster. 

Next, we had the rock climbing I was really excited for this because I had been rock climbing heaps before this and I loved it I started with the hardest one first mainly because there were other people on the easy one when I got half way up I thought holy moly as I looked down on the sea crashing against rocks, I thought I couldn't get any higher that it was impossible but I thought as though if I made it to the top that I would get another abseil and that is what motivated me.

I loved the thrill that came with rock climbing and abseiling and it was a great experience that I will never forget.
