Week 6 Term 1

Hi everyone, this week we have had a lot of cool things going on at TAI, on Tuesday we had boating, Thursday we found out our head students for 2016 and the Makahari Students from Japan came over. Boating on Tuesday was really fun, we learnt about how to scuba fall out of a boat, how to save someone and what emergency communication supplies you would need. When you scuba fall you sit on the side of the boat hold on to the top of you life jacket (while its on you) then fall on your back into the water. When you save someone you have your foot on the rope and throw the buoy into the water and the person puts it on then you pull the rope towards you while your foot stays on the rope. On Thursday we found out who our head students would be for 2016, this was a very long process and I was very nervous as I was one of the participants, but in the end it came down to four of them Amy, Raiha, Cheng-Yu and Matthew. I was really happy for Amy as she is one of my best friends! Thursday was also a very exciting time for some as their Makahari High School Students came to New Zealand to stay for two weeks with there host family. Today (Friday) We had four Japanese students in our class, they are very cool and understand alot more english than I thought. In wood I have nearly finished my speaker which I am really excited about as I can't wait to use it.

  1. I am going to be quite critical this year Hadlee. You do need to carefully check your correct use of their/there. Do you think you could have paragraphed his (even though it's short)? Each new idea needs to be in a new paragraph. Great explanation about the boating - it's given me an idea for our next piece of writing!!!
