Year: 2022

Today I was started to get bored and then I remembered, the Summer Learning Journey Acitivties, when I clicked on their website I saw how much activities I missed out on, then I decided to do the “It’s Cool To Be Kind” I haven’t posted a Summer Learning Journey Activity for 20 days but now I finally posted another Summer Learning Journey Activity and I forgot how fun it is to do these activities.

The next summer learning journey activity I did was like “What if you could see sound” activity but the opposite, it was “What if you could hear colour” so I clicked on the site and it sent me to a game where you can make music with colours, at first I made the drawing pretty but the music didn’t really sound good and when I drew random stuff the music still didn’t sound good, so then I focused on where to put the sounds and the music ended up turning pretty good.

Today a new summer learning journey activity has been released on their site, and I loved it I enjoyed drawing and listening to my favourite song, I started struggling what I wanted to draw but then I just went for it and I didn’t really expect it to be some kind of freaky drawing but I love it.Dumb Dumb is my favourite song because it gives me freak or weird vibes but I love it.

I was really enjoying the summer learning journey activities so I did another activity, the activity was just like the “Toa-Samoa” work but this time I could choose a flag to research about, I did some thinking then I finally decided that I would do the German Flag, I chose the German Flag because I have heard a lot about Germany and while I was researching facts about Germany I found out that Germany started the “christmas tree tradition” and a lot of other fun facts.

I enjoyed doing the Art Summer Learning Journey Activity so I decided to do another activity, the one I chose was Toa Samoa-Wave that flag, I read the rules on what we have to do then I watched a video about the Samoa Flag, while I was watching I was also learning some samoa words like “pa’epa’e” meaning white, “mumu” meaning red and “moana” meaning blue, I also learned that white means “purity”, Blue means “Freedom” and Red means “Courage” and the stars represent the Southern Cross.

For the second Summer Learning Journey Activity, I decided to do another art activity but this time It was about Anime/Manga, I watched the video on what we had to do, then read through the Manga Museum then I went to a webiste which gives you the ability to draw an Anime/Manga character! It took me some time to figure out how to use the tools then I started drawing, this Activity was so fun and I enjoyed drawing and colouring my drawing.

Today I decided to do one of the Summer Learning Activities and the activity I chose was an Art Colouring Picture. I clicked on the link then started scrolling through the drawings then when I saw the picture I liked I decided to colour it in. I chose that picture because it looked really beautiful and magical, and the lady holding the lamp was really pretty.

During the School holidays we went to Rainbows End we could invite only one friend except for my little brother. My sister April invited her friend Angelina and I invited my friend Upu. My older sister Summer didn’t want to invite anyone, we went in the car and made our way to Rainbows End while we were on our way we listened to music in the car.

Later on we made it to Rainbows End but there wasn’t any parking so we had to park outside Rainbows End, then when all of us got our wristbands we went inside Rainbows End and saw lots of cool rides. The first ride we usually go on is called “Log Flume” but we just call it the Log ride April and Angelina went on the same log ,while me and Upu sat with eachother on the same log Upu and I would look at the figures and the little elves then at the end we went down really fast, it was scary but really fun.

When we were done with the log ride we decided to go on the Invader, the Invader was my favourite ride out of all of the rides all of us were really excited to go on the ride then we went on the ride then the ride started, it was calm at first but then later on it started moving and spinning really fast then when the man stopped the ride we all went off the ride with our heads dizzy.

Then we decided to meet up with my family to have lunch together we waited a while but then our food came it was really delicious then after we were done with the food we decided to go on the Golden Coast luckily it was a 4 person ride then later it was our turn to go on the ride, Angelina and April went in the front and me and Upu were at the back when we started the ride it went really fast and when we were near the end the ride stopped then it slowly started moving forward then we took off our seat belts and then we went on the next ride.

Angelina,April,Summer and my father wanted to go to a VR movie, but me and Upu wanted to do the race cars so we seperated from eachother and did our own things Upu was excited to go on the race cars but I was getting kind of anxious, then we went in line and waited our turns then when it was finally our turns we ran to our cars and buckled up our seat belts and started driving, I enjoyed it I felt like I was in a real car then we saw Angelina,Summer, April and my father then when we were done with the race cars we all went to the Invader again, It was the same feeling but it felt like the ride was longer.

We all were tired and starving but before we went back to the car we got cotten candy mostly everyone was starving then we decided to eat at K.F.C we got a bucket filled with spicy chicken then started eating, the food was delicous then when we were full we dropped off Upu and Angelina back to their homes. It was really fun but we barely went on the other rides so next time when we go to Rainbows End I would love to go on other rides.

It is the 9th of January, 1958 ,and we have discovered a strange mountain full of houses and with a suspiciously large river, we then climbed up the mountain, there were some challenges on the way like, some poisonous bats, two mighty lions and a gigantic group of Rhinos.

Then when we finally reached the top of the mountain, we discovered a village! But no people, then when we kept on wandering around the village we saw a table full with magnificent food, but who made it? This was getting really confusing, we thought it was a trap so we walked  away but one of us couldn’t handle the magnificent food and they were starving, we turn our backs around for 5 seconds and we hear a very loud burp, then when we turn around we see one of our crew mates gobbled up the entire meal!

I yelled at them saying that that meal could’ve been poisoned! Or it was someone else’s meal! Then we heard little footsteps and we grabbed our weapons and started searching for the creature who made those sounds then I heard a rattling sound coming from the bush then just as I came closer to the bush a little creature jumped out and it was holding a diamond?

Not only we discovered a strange mountain but a little creature too? It had axolotl ears and the tail of a slug and it had frog hands? What kind of creature is this? It did no harm but just stared at us constantly, holding the diamond tightly, then out of nowhere another creature came out but instead of having axolotl ears,a slug tail or frog hands it had cat ears,a dog tail and hooves as hands! It was holding a little spear, it looked like it was getting ready to stab us then it came running to us,focusing where they were going to stab me, it jumped real high and stabbed me in the chest! Luckily the size of the spear was the size of a rubber, one flick of my fingers and the spear broke into millions of tiny pieces, the spear creature then started bawling their eyes out it was so loud and annoying that I could just cut off my ears.

Then all of a sudden out of nowhere a group of little creatures came out and they had weapons! We were about to shoot them all until an elderly looking creature was holding a staff it was the size of a ruler and on top of it was an emerald, the elder creature then started speaking a language that none of us understood, then the emerald staff that the elderly was holding started glowing and the next thing you know we were teleported in a cell, the creatures trapped us in a prison! There was not even one exit, how were we going to escape?!

On Wednesday the 2nd of November, It was the touch tournament, the Year 8’s ,7’s and 6’s were split into 4 teams, the Year 8 boys were one team, the Year 8 girls were one team, Year 7 and 6 boys were one team and the Year 7 and 6 girls were in one team.

When we came to school we had to sit under the canopy, then when everyone was here we all made our way out of the school gates, Mr Bell would walk up to the road, look left and right making sure there were no cars and then telling us to cross the road. Then when we arrived at Dunkirk we saw all the other schools, I was excited to play but I was also scared to see the schools we were going against.

When we arrived at our tents, we put our bags down and sat down, we all started talking to one another and ate some snacks, then at 9:45 we all went to our fields to play. Unfortunatly the team I was in lost but it’s okay we all played well, and the Year 8 boys team won, then we sat under the tents and ate some food.

Then later on we all went back to our fields for the 2nd round, my team lost again but we have improved, and the Year 8 girls won, we all came back to our tents tired, then we started chattering to eachother again and ate some snacks to gain some energy for the 3rd round.

We all went back to our fields again to play, we lost again and we kind of gotten better and we weren’t really spreading out that much, we came back to the tents really tired, talked, ate then we went back to the field for the 4th round,

The Year 7 and 6 girls were going against the Year 8 girls, It was so exciting, we lost again but It was really fun, the Year 8 girls were going to the semi-finals, all of us went back to the tents exhausted, we then chatted and ate, a lot, then when we were done we all went to watch the semi-finals, It was “St Patricks G2 vs Point England” Point England won, but the year 8 girls did really good.

Then at the end of the touch tournament we all packed up our stuff and got ready to walk back to school, some people went by car with their families and the others walked back to school, I went with my dad by car back to school to pick up my little brother, then when we picked him up we went back home, exhausted the touch tournament was fun and tiring, and I thank all the families who helped and supported the touch tournament.
