Amazing Race.

This year Blaketown school went to Grey High School to do a cool race that is called the Amazing Race.
There were different groups and everyone got separated.  The first thing my group had to do was kick the soccer bowl on the fence. The fence was covered with photos of weird things. Two groups went to that activity. There was my group and another group. My group got lots of kicks and my group came first place for that activity.
The second activity was a bit difficult. We had to balance a balance a bowl of fruit on our heads. Then we had to stand on the balancing beam, then go around the cones and sit down and wait for our team leaders to add up the points. My group came second place because one of our group members kept dropping the fruit bowl on the ground.
The third activity was a bit confusing. Once again my group moved to the other side of the field to get to the next activity. There were pictures of Haka moves on the ground, my group had to put them in order. We had to do it three times before we finished. The other group was trying to work just as hard as my group. But we finished first, so we came first place again. We walked to the last activity on the field.
This one was my favourite it was a lolly activity. We had to pick up a lolly with chop sticks. Then we had to jump on the bench, around the bins, then jump on the beam, then throw a  ball into the bucket then run to the table and put the lolly in the wood bowl. I managed to get two or three lollies in the bowl. We came first for the last time and our team leaders added up the points. Then a whistle blew and we ran to the field in a circle. Sadly my group didn't come first, or second, or third. It was so sad but we had a fun time. In the end we got to eat a few lollies and have a group photo. Then we started walking back to school and thought about the great time we had. That was one of the best days I ever had in my life! Written by Charlotte. Please comment!

My Duffy Books 2019

Hi I'm Charlotte, and I'm going to tell you about my Duffy books. Every year Blaketown School gets Duffy books because we are smart kids, and the people that create Duffy books knew that Blaketown School and other school's knew that we deserve Duffy books.
Duffy books are these books that we order in these magazines, that we really like and want. Then we have to wait about a lot of weeks for our Duffy books to arrive. Once you get your Duffy books you get too keep them, and read them whenever you want. In the magazines we order four books and when our books arrive we get two books, and next time we get the other two books that we ordered last time.
Not all schools get Duffy books for different kinds of reasons, but our school get's them and we are very lucky kids at Blaketown school to get them. I hope your school gets them if not, it's okay because you can just read the books you get at home.
Every year some schools get this many books: 100,000. Can you believe that?! That is just so amazing! Imagine getting that many books a year!
Remember I always keep my blog up to date, I hope you enjoyed this post! :)

My Space Art

This term Room 2 at Blaketown school has been learning about Space. Each student had to create their own special piece of space work. I thought about what I wanted to create then I started using pastels and crayons and I put it together. Soon it made a beautiful piece of artwork. It took me a couple of days, but all the work paid off. I hope you like my space art creation I did. Please comment. If you ever want to make lovely pieces of art like this, grab a piece of paper, and think about what you want to create then do it, there's nothing to it!

Hi i'm Charlotte. This term we have done a little bit of art. We each had to make a Lunar Module.
So we had to draw on a piece of paper, how we wanted to make our Lunar Module.
Next we started creating or Modules. It took a couple of weeks for some people.
We got everything we needed for our Modules.
Just a snip here, & a snap there.
