curious new zealanders

We are apart of an experiment to see just how connected new Zealanders are.
We have to write a letter to an New Zealander of our choice.then we have to pass the letter on to a random person with the instruction to pass it on to someone who might know the person whom the letter is addressed.

Image result for rhys darbyI have chosen Rhys Darby as my curious new Zealander because 
he is easily my favorite NZ comedian/ actor and i look up to him as my idol. I am going to first give my letter to Mr Wood because Mr wood could give is to Jake miller and Jake miller would be able to get it to him or at least know someone who can get it to him.

Tin foil boat challenge

today we got set a challenge to make a floating device out of tin foil. it had to float and be able to carry as many marbles as possible with out sinking the person with the boat that could hold he most marbles with out sinking would win my group had an idea to go with a sombrero shaped boat it would create an air pocket that would support buoyancy this is the results of our sombrero .

i think the major weakness of this degsign was the fact that the boat was very flimsy and i think we can improve this by folding the tin foil in half making it stronger.

This year a Grey main swimming sports I entered in 3 events. my first event was 1 length free style. I got 4th out of 8 I felt pretty good about my score I was up against some really good swimmers the next event took awhile to start but  it eventually started.

 It was dog paddle 1 length I felt nervous at first because I was up against a few of the same people but I ended up in first place in this event!. I felt awesome that was the second event that i had got first in ever it was an amazing feeling.

 My final event was starfish float witch is holding your breath under water for as long as you can i was quite confident for this event because I am really good at holding my breath for a long period of time. I got second in this event and I was quite proud of myself and I felt good with my results and was happy with how I did overall.
