Christmas holiday fun

EOTC WEEK!

EOTC IS OVER SADLY!!! (EOTC = Education outside the classroom)

From Tuesday to Thursday to the next week of Tuesday was all fun and drama.

and since its now Wednesday we were given questions and a blog post to write about our time at EOTC week.

What did you enjoy the most?

I enjoyed going to Adrenalin forest again to experience it all over again.

What did I not enjoy?

Getting a big sunburn on my left leg and 2 sunburns on my shoulders which leaves me in pain, and is still in pain.

My best memory?

Is spending time with my friends as we experience the fun together like, Archey, Fire building ETC from Omaka scout camp,

Having fun sleeping at Spencer park before releasing I got a sunburn

Having a wonderful (It was scary) time at adrenalin forest
On-course 3B! (It was terrifying I slipped)

                   

                 But most of all spending it with the people I knew

Passion projects (Musical)t

For the last past weeks I have bee doing Passion projects, my choice was Musical and were doing a play called Bugsy Malone. I play as a waiter and is very happy with my role even if I don't do much.

So far we've gotten through the whole play but some things could be added.

Like Maybe for my role when Fizzy is singing I could stand there and dance along a bit and admire him.

And could add a bit more sass to my line.

in the end the play is really going good

My favourite thing this year

3 More weeks till school is finally done for the year.

This week is week 7 meaning week 9 is our last, for Monday were doing a writing task on what we liked about this year.

What I liked about this year was the Koru games,

Why is this my highlight?

Well last year I never got the chance to do the Koru games because I didn't think I would be good at it so I didn't try for it and also because I was playing netball in year 7, unlike this year I was playing football.

Which I'm kind of glad I am now.

the first day of the Koru games was kinda chill, we got on the bus got off had the opening ceremony then got back on to go to our destination but some people stayed behind which her likely to be the netball and rugby.

I also liked the Koru games because its where people could get competitive with others.

It also helped me interact with the people on my team more.

and most of all I had my best friend Tyra with me.

EOTC task 4

(All of this is in order)

Task: make a Piktochart about water safety and add 5 tips to avoid hazards in the water.

A dogs life with her best friend (Marshmello)

In class, we watched a video (Video above) and were told to write the perspective of the girl or the dog, from the start of the video, here is what I ended up with.

I sat within the midst of the crowd as I was handed a birthday present, I opened the lid to see a yellow bow, I picked up the bow as I looked at it with an unhappy smile, why a bow? did I do something bad? I thought as I watched my uncle leave and soon come back as I watched him bring in a golden retriever.

My face lit up as I began to stir in my seat as I gave a wave to little puppy as the puppy was handed to me as it licked my face, my smile grew, I felt so happy.

I stuck the yellow bow on the dog as I smiled for the camera.

-Later that day-

I stood near the wall frame as my Uncle got a pencil as he put a line as to how tall In was, I bent down so he could do it for Yellow my puppy, I decided to name her Yellow from the bow I was given for her.
I watched as my uncle drew a line under Yellow as I smiled, life couldn't of been better.

-years later-

I was standing against the wall I knew too well as my dad stuck a line above my head as he left, I grabbed a small dog biscuit out of my pocket a made a circular motion in front of yellow as I laughed and leaned down giving it to her as she ate it.
I then began to ruffle her fur as I smiled walking away.

-at school-

I sat on the sports bench at school while the popular girls were picking who they wanted in their team... of course, I didn't get picked but laughed at as I sat there playing with the ball in my hand.

-home-

I had a ball in my hand as I stuck it on the ground and played of a bit of football with yellow, she was a great buddy to play with when no one would, even if she was a dog.
she would always be there for me.

-Next day school-

I was leaning on my knee on the grass as we were going to get our photo taken as a group as one of the girls pushed past me which made me end up standing for the photo instead of kneeling, I didn't mind, kneeling hurts my knees, I gave a small smile with my mouth closed as the man taking our photo told me to give a big smile, I gave a small shy nod as I brushed some hair from my face giving a small as I showed my teeth that had braces on them, I looked to my side to see the girls laughing at me.
when they laughed at me I just felt like everything stopped I didn't
know what to do...

After that, I rushed home as I threw my bag down laying on the sofa as I heard the paw sounds of yellow asking to be allowed in, I got up as I opened the door for her as she followed me to the sofa as I sat down as she sat on the ground next to me, I looked at Yellow and gave a small laugh as I covered my mouth as Yellow stuck her paw on my hand, she really was a blessing for me having her made me so happy.
I grabbed her paw as she leaned on my hand as I got up and did the circular motion waiting for her to make a circle motion, I gave a small frown as she lays on the ground with her head on the carpet

In motion of being finished.

---------

What did I think of this task?
I loved this task because I could be free with what I wanted to write and how I would write the story.

Did I like this?
What did I like it yes I liked it?
why? Because it was involved animals, and I myself loves animals very much.

If I won summer learning journey and got $50

Hello there Emma my name is Ruby C I am from Hornby high school, I am a year 8 turning year 9

If I had won the Summer learning journey and was given $50 what would I get?

Out of all honesty, there is really only one thing I would use it for.

I would use it to get something off a game I played called closers, or if I had nothing to use it for, give it to my mum to buy food and stuff for my baby brother since I get paid every fortnight and I can wait to get paid to get what I want.

So maybe I would give it to my mother which would help her out a lot with food, clothes and baby stuff for Mathew my little brother. 

So that is what I would use with my $50.

Thank you 

for taking your time to read this.

EOTC TASK 3

Task three for EOTC work - Task: Define these words

Waiata - Pōwhiri - Kaikaranga - Rangatahi - Kaikōrero - Wharemanaaki

Does blogging help me with my work

When it comes to blogging, I must say

yes it helps me out with my work and

I believe that blogging is helpful, when it comes to the comments saying like, This Was really god ETC and what they liked and what the person could change.

I honestly say it makes me happy knowing people read my stuff and might make others happy about it too.

this helps me in ways because if your doing like a topic that others have done from other classes.

You could see what they did so you get a good example of what your doing so your task is much more easier to do and to complete.

When it comes to blogging comments there will always be someone to comment on your work, which leads to saying what they liked and what you could change so you can fix your work to make it better

like adding full stops or comers or capital letters after a full stop and it also helps you cause you have to go back to your work to reread it to find those mistakes that you need to fix.

EOTC week task 2

For our EOTC week tasks, this would be my second one as the adrenalin forest one was my first,

For my second task, we had to write the history of Omaka camp another place we will be going to.

Here is my piece of art (work)

Fairy tale Problem

Is turned into a girl and still forced to go as one to the ball comes face to face with the prince.

And needs to find a way without the prince falling for him and a way to get out before 1 in the morning, due to the doors being guarded by guards , and no one can leave till the end of the party which is at 2 in the morning, and the way he came in is locked due to coming in through the window, is caught finding a way out by the guards without A leaving pass and is forced into the dungeons getting stuck in the problem of his even more than he already is With another to solve to get out of this kingdom to get home before his parents find out he’s gone missing, he tries calling for his fairy godmother but go no response but pure silence through the thick air that travels down into the dungeon from the higher level above the dungeon, but as he comes to find a way out of the dungeon cell With the help of a hidden key within the cell, he comes to with another problem, ahead of him is a blue door.

When he opens the door he’s come to a hallway and another door as he continues on the hallways get smaller and bloodier, as he wonders how this place came to be since he didn’t see it on the way into the dungeon to the cell he was stuck in, as he continues he see another door which takes him to a weird elevator room with a note and another long journey ahead of him down these weird hallways.

The reason as to leave: Parents plan to leave at 1

How do they leave?: The parents have a pass to leave early if needed

Looking forward to EOTC

In week 7 the year 8's are doing EOTC! just before the end of the year to where we turn to year 9's

The activities I'm looking forward to is...

The thing I'm most excited to do is Adrenalin forest, going there would be my second time since I went during our Hornby primary EOTC week with my friends.
I'm hoping that I could get to the top as last time I was almost there but didn't make it in time to the top.

The thing I will be nervous about is the height. When I went there I was so high up I thought I was going to fall, even though I had a harness on and was safe from falling, I still felt so scared thinking I was going to fall. There was this one part where there were steps but they were far apart and hard to reach since they moved when you tried to step on them.
The part of the obstacle I'm looking forward to is to redo those steps again so I can do them with no fear and be able to pass them like it was nothing.

I think I'll enjoy just going there again to face my fears of the thought of falling and hitting rock bottom to my doom and to hopefully make it to the very top before leaving.

This activity is highly recommended as it helps you get outdoors and helps you with keeping your balance on stuff and staying safe.

Enjoy this post.

Math Blog post

In Math, we were working on probability and each group was given a task for my math group we had to do some experiments on probability

Our L.O: we can complete a mathematical investigation

Step by Step: First off I got a 10c's coin from my teacher and a dice as I sat at a desk and began my work before I used the dice and coin I write down a sentence which had missing spaces which I needed to fill then I could use the coin, I need to put down 2 circles and then flip the coin 20 times, each time it landed on either heads or tails I stuck H or T in the circles, Then I made a chart and rolled the dice 18 times before making a tally chart and sticking how much 1's 2's 3's 4's 5's and 6's I rolled.
Then I did some answers after that like which number was rolled the most.

My results of this were I got 10 heads and 10 tails
for dice, I got 5 rolls of 1, 3 rolls of 2, 2 rolls of 3, 3 rolls of 4, 2 rolls of 5 and 3 rolls of 6

My evidence shows that a 1 on a dice is easier to get, and a middle chance of getting 10/10 for both heads and tails.

Science expreiments

On Wednesday last week, we had science like every other Wednesday, we did a little experiment that involved counting.

we were given a beacon, some ice, and a plug to a tap and a lighter, this tap was a fire tap, to control fire level, and we also had a thermometer to stick in the beacon, First off we grabbed ice and stuck the ice in the beacon, before grabbing the plug plugging it in, lighting it then grabbing a tripod which was a little stall with a pad we stuck the beacon on with the plug underneath, the plug is also known as a Bunsen burner which was a metal weird looking thing that attached its self to the plug, then went in flames, after that we counted how long it would take for the ice to melt with the thermometer in while counting, I counted to 60 before pulling it out and Tyra sticking down what we stopped at then we did the whole thing over again but using the same ice.

Our next experiment involved crystals dangerous ones heheheheh, we were given beacons with water as we grabbed a small crystal with tweezers and stuck it in the beacon then waited to see what happen, after a while the water started turning purple a galaxy like purple, then once it had dissolved we stuck down what had happened as a result.

Bottle rocket

last term for science we had made Rockets out of Bottles, first we discussed what our rocket would look like in a pair my pair was Tyra, first off our design was meant to be a kawaii rocket but we only got a wing on sadly and never got to finish due to the rockets being launched while me and others were at Koru games.

But overall it was said to be successful in the rocket launch that day.

Fairy tale make over

So its the second week of term 4 and our teacher wanted to spice writing up a bit, by making us make fairy tales... or well recreating them as our own but still using the same vibe as that fairy tale so people know which fairy tale it is.

-My Orientation-

Sometimes in a fairy tale, there is always a princess that falls in love with the prince or the prince falls in love… Well, thats definitely not how it goes for me…Instead of being a girl… I’m a guy and there is always a way to happiness

I was born in a village and traveled to the kingdom castle on a warm night on the 3rd of October of 2021 alone without a single soul of my family knowing.

My family has 5 people including me. Shiro is my dad, he's a chill guy but is also someone you can rely on. My Stepmum… we don’t really get along her name is Allura as she lives with us now she brought her two girls, Pidge and Fae.  Pidge is the only one who really gets me when dad and that woman and her child are not around I guess you could Say its more peaceful, I guess. And… this is what I go through each day

KEITH, GO GET THE MAIL “YES MAAM” *I walked over to grab the mail to see a big letter as I picked it up and began reading* “Looks like something big’s going to happen… not like I’ll be able to go anyway“ *Sigh*

DLO SolveEmoji

In Maths our homeroom teacher decided to make math a bit fun, instead of just using numbers she used Emojis to solve questions.
We were given some questions with emojis, and a number at the end, the question would either be something x something + something = ??? but with emojis, the task was to find out what number the emojis were.

After we had finished all out tasks we had to make a solve Emoji of our own.
Here is my one, Try one for yourself.

Koru Games

On the 18 of September the first day of the Koru games was okay, our first match we both got a tie of 3, then our last 2 games we vs to teams that broke the rules, I was a bit nervous facing the other teams in case I broke a rule while playing...

Speaking of rules at the Koru games there was this rule where you couldn’t say the word Mine, it was a very silly rule, that rule was broken by the 2nd team we played. Then it leads to the last game and then to where we are now the 2nd day the 19th. Standing on the field in the middle of a game with St Francis, my spot that I played in was defenses.

I was not in the right mind when we were playing against them, but I guess doing that made me kick the ball a couple of times, which made them get fewer goals, it was a fun game and we had managed to win our first game. Jorga our coach was very happy with us, I mean who wouldn’t. Then on the 20th which was the last day for Koru games, we played against Chasmare 2 for our first game.

It was much easier to vs them unlike cashmere 1. While everyone was at the front I was at the back with Nature doing the floss and singing the wedding bells while waiting for the ball to come my way, in all honesty, I was a bit shocked that Jorga or Miss Tozer didn’t tell me to pay attention to the game but instead they give me a thumbs up from when I gave them one. And after that game, we got our second win, along with a very happy Jorga Also after we started playing Chasmare 2 I didn’t really feel nervous anymore, knowing it didn’t really matter if we won or lost.

After that, I started singing the Pokemon opening but with a small twist… “TO USE IT IS MY REAL TEST, AND TO APPLY IT IS MY JOB… SUNBLOCK!”

I kinda repeated that over and over again for a while. The best part about the trip was that I got to spend it with my second half or my best friend Tyra, we even gave our selfs nicknames we called ourselves the Oddies since I was a 9 and she was a 5 which I came up with before the Koru games saying “I’m a 5 and your a 9 WERE THE ODDIES BUDDIES” I screamed with joy… and that was my first year at the Koru games.

NorthPole Riddle?

In cyber smart, we were given a riddle (The riddle is underneath this) and we had to find out which team got to the north pole first way before the others.
Our result was fairly easy to do as I worked with one of my other friends Alyscia, who helped a lot in this task.
Here are our results and answer.

ANSWER: Pevek, got there first


explorers from kushiro, pevek, amsos arrive at the north pole and check there watches, if they arrived at 11:42 am , 12:17 pm , and 3:00 am, respectively, which team was first?

Personification

When we got back from Japanese we were told to sit out on the veranda outside, and outside laid a big piece of paper. At first, it was confusing as to why to there was paper there, but then our teacher came out with a can of shaving gel.

She told us to pass it around and think of what the can made you feel when you first held it.

At first, I felt joyful and free and canny (Can puns???)

Then she told us one by one to spray the shaving gel onto the paper and to stick how much we were hurt by others.

when I did this I felt nothing.

Then we sat down, and she then last of all told us to hand it around again and tell her what we felt like after the can was empty.

I now felt Empty and alone. Afraid of what might come. but it still somehow felt heavy but it was unnoticeable.

----

what was your experience of this activity?

to understand the people who are lonely but don't want to show it by spraying their pain away onto a piece of paper to make it feel better.

what did you learn?

I learnt that even a single can, can make you show feelings?

just by feeling it..

Recount of Jo Berludi Chapter 1-3

whats a vertices
a vertices is the ups and downs on a shape

why must we show RESPECT?

Why do we show Respect? And why do we have to?

Respect, its... Well, its something you don't have to pay for, its something that everyone can have any time and day, its something that everyone should use, even adults.

We show Respect because its something that everyone over the world uses when you show Respect it can go a long way, it can make someone's day, it can even make your own day better with just a few words, words we don't think much of them, but what we say affects people more than we know because people put up strong faces when inside they feel like their droning in pain because of those words.

Your words mean more than they seem.

We have to show Respect, because its kind and nice, it makes others happy, and even you, showing Respect, you could say nice stuff to them or even hold the door open for them or give them a warm hug or welcome. You may even find that one person who will stick with you till the end because you were nice to them you showed them kindness and even if you did agree you came back and said sorry.

Dear Mr Mitchell

This is Ruby from 8Bh. Even if I don’t really like fitness, I find it important to have fitness and this is why I am writing this email to you. It’s to tell you to keep fitness and how to make everyone else like it.

So far we do fitness each Monday, Tuesday (not year 8’s), Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, To me having fitness everyday will tire people out especially the year 7’s. Maybe you could only do Monday due to that being a start of a new week and Wednesday and Thursday. The reason why I didn’t stick Tuesday in is I think it’s a bit unfair that year 8’s don’t have to do it, but year 7’s do. Maybe you could give the year 7’s Tuesday off to so the year 7 & 8’s can do fitness together. Instead of year 7’s doing fitness alone on Tuesdays, and I also find it more fun with my friends from the year 7 classes. Some year 8 & 7’s might think the same to.

When it comes to the running around the court with the skipping and side stepping we could do that first since when I look at others they all seem to try and find a way to back out. Due to being too tired and breathless, if we did it at the start, I positively think then people will have the energy to do the rest of the fitness.

I also think that there should be some small little tiny fitness for the people sitting out due to there being to many each day. You could give them their own little circle, and another teacher does some little exercising with them instead of them sitting down and not exercising all the time while everyone else does. I think it’s important even for them to get fit. If they sit out all the time they never will.

Kind regards

Ruby from 8BH

axolotl!

For Maths our task was to Create A DLO Digital. Learning. Project, and to work in a group of two, or by yourself. And I Choose to work with Tyra

what do I like about axolotls? I like how cute they are and how derpy they look 

Here is our DLO feel free to read For the student part for who will take care of the axolotl, I stuck that down so people can learn to take care of their pets!

Science!

What did I do in science?

Well yesterday we made paper planes or as our science teacher called them Gilders

No Idea what the purpose was for making it but we made our gliders and went outside and there them like planes, some made changes to their glider to see if there was anything different... you could say there was... Sort of

Halfway near the end of school I started getting a bit too hot and started getting loppy which ended up with me saying "How does it feel knowing you've killed millions of people!" what I meant by that was, you would pretend people were in the paper plane and each time you crashed you killed innocent people...

Well apart from that it was fun

a couple couple days ago, more like 2 weeks ago or 1... we made parachutes fun right?

we had to make it which was a pain since it also involved string which got tangled with the other string, which made it hard for it to fly... kinda

But in the end, we all had fun!

acts of kindness - Blog Post

Today we had Cybersmart for Cybersmart we were something to read once we finished Reading it we had to make a blog post on the article and give our opinions about it.

-what I read-

https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/06/15/valedictorian-anonymous-instagram_n_7571462.html

My opinion

I like how the article showed how nice people can be towards others, even if the person that looked at the comment to them didn't know who it was that said the nice stuff about them

and how we need more people on this planet like that person

It's showing Benevolence which means showing Kindness to others

If you want you can look at some random acts of Kindness

He saw it coming from around the corner but he still kept walking, he kept walking knowing what laid ahead for him but he was Allen Walker, he was a Noah a feared creature that the order was looking for, "Allen?" a small voice that walked beside the albino  "yes Road?" Allen said as he looked a the small Noah, "thank you for being here with us" she said "Your welcome Road... Now let us see out to the Order and get this mission done so we can go back home to the Earl shall we Road" the small girl nodded as the two walked out from around the corner

"Allen..." Face to face with Allen was an old friend of his named Lavi "Lavi" he said back to the redhead, "why did you have to join the Noahs, we could have found a way to stop your execution..." the Redhead said "I joined them knowing nothing would stop the Order, I joined the Noah because I was one of them, I joined them because I didn't want to put anyone in danger... and I joined them with my free will Lavi" Allen said knowing the Cheif was hearing this "everyone misses you tho Allen..."

"I'm Sorry Lavi... I'm sorry it had to be like this... but whats been done has been done and there is no going back for me now... I'm happy where I am right now and that's the only thing that matters right Lavi?

You said back then that what makes me happy makes you happy" the albino said as a tear slipped down his face "I remember..."

The two gave a glance before walking off "hn well that was awkward Road..."

"yes it is was... but we didn't finish our mission, we didn't even start to... ALLEN EARLS GOING TO BE SO MAD AT US WHAT DO WE DO"

Respect - what did I do to Respect someone?

Today for writing we had to write 8 sentences on how we respected someone today

the person I respected was: Tyra

How?

well since Tyra and stick to each other like glue you could say were always helping each other.

Like each morning she cames to school I greet her with a good morning and a smile and a hug.

and at interval I also held the door open for her so she could walk throught.

My second one was my Teacher Miss Birtch, in the morning when she came to class I said good morning to her and gave a smile before entering the class room and sitting down. Yesterday we also came up with some goals, my goal was to sit in a good posture while listening since I sluched a lot. Today I did my best and listened in a good posture or tired but it was still good in the end.

Reading - Camping

It's Term 3 and the start of a new week

For reading we were given a Task to finish before Friday, our task was to make a google drawing of 5 thins we would bring on a camping trip or if we were going camping

after that, we did a screencastify on why we would bring those 5 thins

Here is my short video of what I would bring and why

Stand Children services

What is stand?

Stand is a camp for children of the age of 5-4 up to the age of 13

at Stand there are many new things to try out

What is at Stand?

If you go to Stand in the weekdays hoping to get away from school, Have no worry stand has a school like classes also, but more fun stuff like easy worksheets and drawing and ETC

If you go to Stand in the holidays don't worry if you think it will be no fun, because there will be a lot of fun stuff to do, you could go new places or even go to the swimming pool they have!

When your at Stand the rooms will be between girls and boys, the boys on one side and the girls on the other side, they each have their own bathrooms and rooms, the rooms will be split up to 3 or 2 or 4, if the rooms are split up it still means that the rooms are whole but it means that there will be 3 rooms separate with 2 or 3 or 4 beds in the rooms.

and the outside part is huge and big and it has it's own playground to play in, as well as it's own food place where you go to eat breakfast, morning tea, Lunch, and dinner.

If you don't have any parents who drive, fear not some people from Stand shall pick you up and bring them back to camp with you!

Stands has lots of fun actives that would involve your social and physical and spiritual well being

and is a welcoming place of many new people to meet for the time that you spend there!

8BH Bake sale - Project

1 more week till the end of the term

a week ago 8bh decided to do a project, we came up with suggestion and stuck them down and did one whole big pick out of the suggestion.

What we picked was fundraising, instead of doing a hot dog sizzle like the school always seemed to do, since sausages were really yummy, we picked that we would make some of our own small food and then sell them.

When we first decided on the fundraising we picked that the money should go to the Sva, a group of many people that clean up the city, halfway through the thinking on of the yr7 teachers came in a told us what they did last year and who they gave their money to.

after listening to Mr. Mitchless idea's on where the money should go we did a little pick, we could either pick for the money to go to the Sva or the 24/7 youth workers, we picked the youth workers because there was a family in need of food that didn't have any.

after the decision we were given jobs, a group of 2 will do the poster on a computer, then print it out and some other 2 would draw little cards as to say come and buy food.

we were going to sell the food on Tuesday the 26 of June

so we were told to make the food on the weekends which made senses, then we would bring it in on Monday and put it in little bags so it would live through the day, so then on Tuesday, everything would be ready for selling.

On Tuesday for the 2nd period a while near morning tea we got everything set up for selling, there was so many stuff to eat and it all looked so yummy, there were cupcakes, loli cake, banana cake and ETC.

In the end, we managed to get the total amount of $140 & 70 C's.

Matariki Reaing

Matariki has passed so for Reading were doing a post about some facts about Matariki!!!

we were told to read a story about Matariki then put our facts down

Since Everything was already in the story.

Here are some of the facts I got from the story, but the 15 of June one was from my blog from an older post.

Matariki is a Mori new year, it's when the star Punga marks the sky, on Matariki many things can happen, Like a hangi where food is cooked in the ground or the Kapa Haka where people dance to a song, and ETC

----XHave a nice dayX----

Hauora!

In class for kete we are learning about wellbeing,
We watched 2 videos explaining about Wellbeing or Hauora and then was told to put what we do for Social, Emotional, Physical & Spiritual on a slideshow and take a picture and tell why we stuck what we did down.

Social
I like Talking to my friends at school cause I know I'm not alone also goes with discord as I have people to talk to there to

Emotional
I love hugging people it keeps me happy

Physical
Whenever I try to do something like running, I lose engry quickly and my feet and ankles
Begin to hurt as well as my throat

Question's
Please Comment down below anything I could Improve or Change or add to my work
Thank you

sva (Reading)

What is the Sva and what do they do?

The Student volunteer army is also known a Sva for short

They are a group of adults who let teenagers and kids join them to help clean the city

While it might not seem fun, there are new people to meet and out of all of that who knows cleaning just might make you some nice friends

With some nice Food

The Sva was started by a man named Sam Johnson after the September earthquake in Christchurch
He started a 200 member Facebook page to co-ordinate any students who wanted to help
In the end he ended up with 7000 to 8000 students to help.

What did I learn?
I learned that it was about cleaning up the city, from it's name it almost sounds like a military school to see what its like to be in the war.

Here is the Sva page - http://sva.org.nz/

Finish Writing about Biscuits

The question I am Answering: Biscuits

Biscuits are yummy and loveable and everyone loves them, but how did they get their name. There are many facts about biscuits that you might want to know

Biscuits got their name from a Latin word Bis meaning Twice and coctus meaning baked., They were invented in the 19th century as in 1892 Alexander Grant made the digestive biscuit.

From the start of the Nineteenth Century “Fancy biscuits” Began to produce, the Main Varieties of the biscuits were called Captains, Water and also Cabin as the name suggest.

In the late 1830’s, The Firm was selling about twenty different kinds of Biscuits, From the Captain's the Abernethy and the Oliver Varieties, To Macaroons and Sponge tea cakes and ETC.

Biscuits can come in many sizes and shapes but most of all their yummy

Hope this helped with our favorite snack
