Pink Shirt Day 2019

This Year for Pink Shirt day we decided to have a fundraiser at our school supporting the Upstander charity going with the whole school goal of being an upstander, we were undecided until we came up with the idea to bake gingerbread cookies with pink icing and sell them to the school and some parents. It was a hit and we made 100s of them selling them for $50c-$1 and we made a profit of $400 to go towards our charity. We found ourselves very successful and I hope we do it again next year. 



Hanmer Springs Camp 2019

This year for camp we went to Hanmer Springs which includes all the activities such as... 
Mountain Biking 
We went Mountain biking around the Statue track which went for 2 hours and 30 minutes, I really enjoyed it the scenery in the forest was beautiful and you get really good specialized bikes.
Statue Walk 
The Statues were amazing and really creative like the bear in a harness climbing a tree. And they were quite spread out, but we went the wrong way for about 5-10 minutes and got lost so we had to make our was back and get onto the track. 
Conical Hill 
When we went to Conical Hill we saw the sign that said 30 minutes up and 30 minutes down so we made a goal that we would get there in 20 minutes up and 10 minutes down so we ran and in the end we got 15 minutes up and 6 minutes down. 
Tree Climbing 
For Tree Climbing we were paired with Aria and we had to get into a harness and a helmet and we got to climb up to the top and squeak the toy. I made it up the big tree and I squeaked both toys. 
Hot Pools 
Everyone enjoyed the Hot pools and we were allowed in different selections of pools from boiling hot to cold.

Sri Lanka Explosions

At 8:45am on Easter Sunday Sri Lanka was set with a series of explosions that killed more than 300 people and at top-end hotels. It is the most violence the country has seen since the end of the civil war decades ago. Most of the victims of the attack are said to be Sri Lankan's but at the least 31 are foreigners.          But the real question was who was behind the bombing?
On Monday the day after they were to believe it was a little known group called National Thowheed Jamath (NTJ) were to blame, the officials were still investigating whether it had international help.
