We arrived at our new house in calgary about 11:00 and you know the weird thing when we were driving back from the airport and it was still light at 11:00 at night. My Dad knows me too well and when i arrived i got the pleasure of looking at my nearly full book shelf.  I like our new house my room is in the basement and everyone else in my family sleeps upstairs so i baseically have the basement to myself.

Yesterday in the final block we harvasted flax so we could make roses. When me and my partner got back from harvasting flax there was only 30mins till the bell rang so we had to really quickly copy our teachers actions.

How we made it, so we took the orange ends of the flacks and 1/4 up the flacks we started our weveing. We had to fold the flaxs in a squre 3-4 times and then put the end of the flaxs through the hole in the middle of the flaxs squre and twist. And that is how you make a flax rose.

Today for our cybersmart lesson we learned about Samoan degins because it is Samoan languge week I went on google draw and made this Samoan pattern.

If I was in the circus for 2yrs I would work as an advertiser. It appeals to me because I don’t like to be in the spotlight.

If I became an advertiser I would need to make suspence in my posters tell the audience just enough to know a bit to to get them amped up but my posters will only convey so much so the rest remains a secret and the audience must pay to know the rest.

To make posters I would need quite a lot of equipment. I would definitely need paper, some sort of computer, a printer with lots of ink, pens, pencils and a social media account. So I can not only advertise my circus localy. It might also encourage other people from father away to come to my circus.

If I could work for any circus for 2yrs I would work with the cirque du soleil in Canada because I would like to go all around Canada. And eat lots of bever tails.

Yesterday we started to learn NZ sign languge everybody in my class learned to sign. Hi my name is ……. I am ……. years old.

mine is… Hi my name is Lily I am 11yrs old

Today was the due date for our 3D posters.

I did the Octahedron,

The Octahedron has 8 faces and 12 edges. It is a 3D shape that looks like 2 sqaure based pyramids stuck on the bottom of each other. The Octahedron symbolises reflection,compashion and healing. The name Octahedron is a greek term “Oktaedron”  witch means 8 faced. The Octahedron is now used for jewlery.

On the last day of camp we went up to the river at Taipa that leads out to the sea. First my group (Ruru) jumped of the warf  but there was no way I was doing that it was way to cold. Then we did sailing I went out with Madeline and it was awesome. After that we had our lunch break we ate and then basically everyone in our group played a massive game of piggy in the middle. Lastly we went paddle bording. It was to windy so we couldent go to the other side of the river like the other groups had so we paddeled along the shoreline insted. Me and Madeline went together on that as well but we got caught in the currets and a parent had to help save us.

On Wendsday we did the actual circus performance!!!! I was so nervous. But luckily me and Molly were the last people to do our acts. We were called up (our name was the chocolate lovers) and we found the equipment we needed we walked on to the stage and started our act I think we did really well and I am proud of myself that I went and did it. we made a few mistake but I think we did really well.

Me and Molly are doing a routine in circus with the flower sticks

First you cartwheel and pick the sticks up. Then you put the big stick on the floor and scoop it up and fling it to each other. Then Molly puts her flower stick down then I turn around and fling the stick back to her then she does the same to me. Then she picks up her flower stick and the we throw it to both sides and catch both sides. Lastly we throw it to each other catch it and bow.
