How was it?

Ontv studio

This was at Ontv studio when we were dressing up for the live show. It was a bit creepy knowing that the video was going on youtube for the whole world to see, but you get over it, well most people did. Even though it was scary we had fun watching the video and laughing at ourselves.

when have you been on tv?

Sailing Day!!!!

Tuesday was the day we went sailing it was freezing cold in the yacht.My group was Natasha, Cait, Gabby, Jacob and Kaitlin. We all agreed it was the coldest day sailing. Natasha and Me were always steering and pulling the ropes but I didn't get to steer anyway.

The thing we liked about sailing was steering and touching the water with our hands while the yacht tipped over.

What was your favourite thing about sailing?.

By Kaitlin & Natasha

We are in the library. We love the library it is a quiet place to sit and read peacefully.

 Room 11 and 12 did some artwork using recycling. we painted it white so we could see the spray paint over the top. Hannah and I decided to do blue and red on top of the art. The bits kept coming off so we had to glue them back on.

Windy Wellington!



Windy Wellington again! 
Its been like this all week long-non stop! Now you can see how much Wellington deserves this title! The whole of New Zealand is covered with rain! What do you think of all this weather? When we went out there it was really hard to see with all that mysterious fog! Have you been outside lately? What we want to do right now is to sit by the fire enjoying a hot chocolate!
