So the first event we did was shot put and after shot put we did standing jump then we did discus and then long jump and after long jump we did high jump. And the teacher who were doing each events were Mr James, Mrs Tefae, Mrs grady, Mr J. but in the standing jump i am last place and in shot put i still came last place and in long jump i came last place but in high jump i still came last place.

the refugee story about mahmoud by mariah and nitika

 So a 12 year old boy named Mahmoud and his parents are fatima and his dad named himself and his sister named hana  and a little brother named waleed and so waleed was watching his TMNT on the T.V and the dad had a watch/phone/money. The taxi-2 rebels jumped in -shot-up-ran away and Waleed was acting like a zombie from the TMNT that was on the T.V. and so Mahmoud and his family moved to syria-turkey-greece but that when hana went missing. And that when the mum went to look for hana. And they are muslim and they pray 5 times a day and they bend down to breath brain and a mosque Quran. 

Mahmoud and the mum,dad and waleed slept in the plane and slept in the shop in a country named turkey but they walked to turkey and they gave hana away. 

So mahmoud mum used to be a nurse in a war and the dad is an engineer . Mahmoud had no friends when he was growing up but he had one friend named Khalid who defended him. When he was invisible. And so the mum and dad's apartment was damaged. And they live in Aleppo,Syria and they have no way to live but live in a shop or they have to keep on walking to find a place to live in and to find a school for Mahmoud to go and learn about new things and different people.               

And so there was a huge hole in there apartment and mahmoud saw a gery-white clouds from the missile strikes blooming all around. And mahmoud was in shook and he was trying to clear the ringing in his head. 

After mahmoud and his family finish in turkeys they went from turkey to greece, maeedania, serbia, hungary, Austina and to germany but then when mahmoud mum when to look for hana in germany.       

 But when mahmoud was in syria they had syira pounds and mahmoud and his family were thinking about moving to a different so mahmoud mum can give hana away to a different person but when they were walking mahmoud mum was looking for hana and that when the mum went looking for hana everywhere and she went to go ask some people if they seen hana or if they seen a little 2 year old walking off somewhere .

🏕 camp explanation text 🏕

 Why all kids should go to a school camp.

So all kids should go to a school camp where they can learn new skills and make new friendships and to build more confidence in each other. And join in different groups that you can interact with.     

Whanaungatanga 

Whanaungatanga is when you can make new friendship or you can build more confidence with each other or you can join and interact with each other in a group so while you are at camp when you see some lonely you can go and make friendship or you can help them with their stuff like unpacking there thing in the room or you can help them clean up in the dining room. And you can learn other people's language and their culture. And the meaning of whanaungatanga is that you can encourage each other to do new things.     

Learning new skills

So learning a new skill is what you haven’t done for the first time so the things that you will see is that there is kayaking,paddle board,orientering,beach walk and more but you can do things that are independent.

Break from internet 

So the break from the internet is when you can get away from you school work and away from your social media. And get to find the meaning of getting a away from your phone and having fun with you school friends and your teacher.
