HOLIDAYS AHHH

Right now, I am so exited for the holidays! I can't wait 'til Christmas and New Year! For Christmas we should be having my great Aunt over. I hope I can get a chameleon for Christmas but I doubt I will actually get it : /. My family has this tradition where we put our pillowcases out on Christmas Eve aswell as our stockings.

But I LOVE New Years! We go out to the Wairarapa Coast and stay at my Dad's cousins farm called Green Tops. There are loads of hills which are great to climb and a river which we swim in A LOT.
This year we are having the Bazalo's and the Davis's coming too.

After New Years we come back on the 2nd then head of to Mahia Beach on about the 5th. Mahia is my favourite place in the entire world. It is a peninsula with different types of beaches all around. This time my best friend Tahli who lives in Australia is coming for a WHOLE 10 DAYS!!! I am so excited. Also, all my cousins from my Dad's side come up apart fom the ones who live in Germany. There are 22 of that usually come up. But the best thing is, all of us get along really well. Especially me and my cousin Finn.

I really hope you all have holidays that you enjoy just as much as I do, AND GOOD LUCK FOR NEXT YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hightlights!

OPC Camp

In Term 1 we went to OCP camp in Tongariro. It was loads of fun and I really enjoyed doing all the challenges.

Dodgeball

Rm 11 and Rm 12 play Dodgeball against each other. There is great competition between the two classes.

In the production I played Argon. I really liked being a super cool agent and I wish I could do it again.

Retreat

At the year 8 retreat we played lots of great games and reflected on our year and started talking about college next year.
