Duffy Role Model Assembly

L.I: To have a fun experience during the Duffy Role Model Assembly.

Today was Panmure bridges schools first Duffy assembly  of 2021.  Marc and Karen from duffy in schools came in and Marc was telling us a story about how his life was hard, when he was young and how it was hard for him in his school days. He told us that when he was young kids used to bully him because the teachers used to put him up in front of the school and make him read. Marc used to read from his right to his left he got bullied for that. This was a fun and cool experience to learn about his story.

Key Competencies

 LI: To compare the Key Competencies we think we will use on camp and the Key Competencies we actually used. 

Before we went to camp our challenge was to think about when we might use the Key Competencies as we faced the challenges.  When we came back from camp we looked at this and compared how we thought we would use the Key Competencies and how we actually used them. 

I found this activity interesting because I got to talk about my experience and the things we did at camp.

North Island Bird / Infographic

This week, everyone in LS2 has been given a set of different challenges based on our camp. For this activity we used our smart searching skills to find information about the North Island Kokako bird. In the infographic it talks about the Kokako birds: diet, habitat, apperance, and three interesting facts.

I found this activity interesting because we learnt new things about the North Island Kokako.

Camp Collage

L.I: To create a collage of your camp highlights.

This week LS2 have been celebrating our camp. I created this collage to show my time at camp and the activities I enjoyed. To make my collage effective I thought about the size of the images, the angle of the images and I tried hard not to leave any gaps between the photos. Just placing pictures the correct way up and having lots of gaps doesn't look like a fun and interesting collage.

I found this activity fascinating because we used our creativeness and made a fun collage.

Brochure

L.I:To a collaborative brochure that tells others why Kokako Lodge is a great place to go on camp.

Last week every LS2 student challenged themselves during the sessions at archery, high ropes, kayaking, raft building, camp cooking, pancake race and team building/orienteering. Our group collaborated to create a brochure that shows others why Kokako Lodge is a great place to go on camp.

We found this activity intersting because we collaborated very well and finished it off.

5 Minutes Of Camp - Achieving My Deep Fear

L.I: To recount a 5 minute snapshot of one expirence you had at camp.

Achieving My Deep Fear

It was my time to shine but I couldn’t do it. My heart was pumping fast, my braveness disappeared, and my fear kicked in. My thoughts were not to do it but my mouth is saying climb it.

I begin taking my first step on the ladder. I already had butterflies flying around in my stomach. But I tried punching and kicking the fear out of me but I couldn’t. Every step I took my heart pumped even fast. I finally was starting to climb up the metal rungs. I had sweat dripping so much it came into my eyes. I finally achieved the metal rungs.

I commence taking a walk along the log, holding the rope tight as possible. All my teammates cheered me on and it made me feel better. My legs were still shaking though, like it was an earthquake. I didn’t look down because I knew I would be so terrified and feel like I'm gonna fall.

I reached to the other pole hugging it like it was my loving parents. I needed to get this done and over with. I walked to the middle and got ready to get back to the beloved ground. 

I leaned back and started to go back onto the ground. I am so proud of myself and felt happy because I achieved my goal. I knew I could do it because my teammates overcame their fear too, I built my self esteem.

Last week we went to camp at Kokako Lodge and stayed there for four days. My 5 minutes of camp shows what did in that one activity. I was painting a picture in my mind to describe what I did and what I felt in the activity.

I found this activity interesting because I got to describe what I did and how I felt.
