Year six camp to Borland Lodge

On Monday the 21 of November all of the year six kids went up to Borland Lodge in mini vans in our groups it took about a hour and a half to get their.
We arrived up in Boland Lodge 11 o'clock and went into our cabins.
On the first day my group went rafting then to the tyrolean traverse and then back to camp and did outdoor cooking over the fire next we went to the hoizontal bungee and archery it was cool because we had a packet of flakes to aim for and if we hit it we got to share the packet with the group(yummy).
On the next day we went Abseiling down 15 meaters then rock climbing,low ropes course and air rifles and bivvy building Sean and I made a bivvy under a trees root that has fell over it was awesome.

Class pet

Class pet

Dear Mr. Lovelock and Miss Stewart,

Hannah and Devon strongly believe that Room 7 should have a class pet Guinea pig called Billbo.

In our opinion it would be a great opportunity to take responsibility and use our values towards the pet and learn how to look after pets for our ones at home.

Secondly we could fundraise for a class pet, it’s food and a fancy cage for it to live in we can get enough money for it all by fundraising.

We feel that Room 7 deserves a pet Guinea pig for a class pet because Room 7 has been working hard all year and everybody in Room 7 will be happy with the new class pet because we went and asked everybody for their opinion about a class pet and they all would love one including Miss Stewart.

Fourthly a class pet will give the kids in Room 7 something to look forward to when they come to school in the mornings and it would be a treat to get to take it out of the cage when you have done your work.

We believe there are bads in every good though having a class pet may be distracting for some people and the guinea pig may get out of it’s cage sometimes and may get stood on but we can set some rules to prevent that from happening.

Finally you are probably thinking who would look after Billbo in the holidays well we have that sorted of course give it up for Hannah and Devon we will look after it all Christmas long since we love Hamsters, we love Guinea pigs and it would be great practice for the guinea pig we are begging our mums for.

So therefore we strongly think a class pet would be a great oppuinty!

Thank you for listening and we hope we change your thinking of not getting a class pet!

Habits of mind

In class we are learning about habits of mind and here is an example  of managing impulsivity.

I was in town one day just walking down the street when I came across  a shoe shop.  There on the table where some white leather boots.  I just wanted to have them,but I just kept walking.

Here is an example of not managing impulsivity.

Last week I went to my friends birthday party and there was cake.  The cake was a rich dark chocolate mud cake, I just couldn't resist then the cake was gone.
