Last week Myself and the rest of the Year 5 and 6's went on our big school camp!
We went up to Mt Ruapehu for some skiing/snowboarding fun!
I learnt how to snowboard and really enjoyed going down all the snow covered slopes, and back up on the chairlift! I got to stay in a room with my friend Abby. (See down below for her blog!)
It was so much fun that I decided to make a slideshow about all my experiences. Here it is:
What were the challenges?
At camp Learning to snowboard was really tricky.
I had to learn how to turn at the right time, how to stop
and how to go faster. While learning I had quite a few
Bumps and scrapes from falling over. It was still super
Fun though!
What was fun?
I loved going up on the chairlifts, and getting a little ride. I
also liked going on the magic carpet. (A magic carpet is like
a conveyor belt for humans!) Another thing that was really
fun was riding on the toboggans!
What was the benefit?
The biggest benefit from camp was learning how to snowboard.
It was a good EOTC (education outside the classroom), and I learnt some new skills! I can't wait to go back there another time so that I can practise my skills!

I hope you like my work and feel free to comment
WOW! An excellent blog post and slideshow Izzy. I really like the layout, it is easy to read and lets us focus on what you are talking about. You have written two very clever poems. In your slideshow your use of illustrations creates very interesting pages. I think you could have added more photos of yourself and the different activities that were in the trip, from the bank of photos available. Keep up the excellent work.
ReplyDeleteOh and I think you could convince your parents to learn some alpine sports! I didn't learn to ski until I was well into my 20's and not properly until I was in my 30's. Never too late to try new things!
