For the last couple of weeks we have been working on the topic space. We had 7 activities  That we had to complete. The first one we had to complete was our planet report were we had to research a planet and find as mush facts about the planet. Another one we had to do was our Astronaut gear where we had to create a google drawing and put pictures of all the things you would need in space.

Wearable Arts T3 2017

For Wearable Arts this year my team worked around colour. The theme was festivals around the world and we chose the Holi festival. Holi is a Hindu spring festival celebrated in India and Nepal, also known as the "festival of colour" or the "festival of love". The Holi festival runs for two days on different days of March. This celebration originated in 1933.  
 We decided to do Holi because of the amount of  ideas to do around colour. Our custom is mainly made out of plastic bags, newspapers and wire. For the top we shaped wire around the model ( Paris ) and then used tape around the edges to make it less sharp. Then we weaved pieces of Plastic bags around the wire. After that we added  colour to some of the butterfly's  made out of newspaper and added them on. For the skirt we ironed plastic bags together and added the colorful butterfly's. 
We also made a bag out of cardboard and newspaper. 


I think we worked well as a group and  manged to finish the final piece on time and it has come along nicely. 

I don't think there was much stuff we didn't do well I just think maybe it wasn't the best idea to change the design 3 days before the due date. 

If we could restart I think I would try to stick to the same design for the whole time.

Camp reflection T2 W4

Camp Refection

Last week we went on Hammer Springs Camp. I found It my favorite camp iv been on ever. My favorite highlights Were probably the Hot pools and the Tree climbing. Here are all of the active we did.  Mission impossible , Hot pools, Mounting biking, Tree climbing and orienteering. 

I loved the tree climbing. First of all we had to get all harness up and the guide tour us how to be a safe climbing and how to b lay. There were to trees one was a eucalyptus but the rope to climb didn't go right to the to it only went just over half. The other tree was a pine tree witch it went right to the top. I climbed the pine tree and I got right to the top. I found it such a great experience  and  I had a lot of fun.      

Another one of my favorite activities was the mounting. I loved the biking because half way through we got to do a pump track and also do river crossing. There were some hard hills but I  just kept thing that is you go up one the gonna come down one. We went biking for just under 2 hours and it was so cool. 


My Last favorite was the Hot pools. I loved the hot pools because I loved spending time with my friends and having fun. I liked going down the super bowl and going in the lazy river. On the first night we spent 1 hour and a half and on the second night we spent 2 hours. out of the hot pools my favorite would be the hex angle pools.
