film review

On the 14th of November my class went to go see the Toki
Pounamu Film Festival we pretty much just watched a whole
bunch of films from different schools. I think that the film festival
was pretty good because we got time off work at school and it
was just good to relax and watch the films. 

The editing of the Paroa School song was pretty good, like when
they switched the scenes. It was cool that they got some drone
footage because most of the films were just filmed on the
ground . The sound quality was good as well.  The only bad
thing was that they repeated the song a bit too much. 

I think the film festival was too environmental. Maybe next time
people could actually make fun films instead of just being vsco
girls and talking about global warming and saving the
environment.

Practising ScreenCastify

Today we made a ScreenCastify about some work we had completed. Then we had to embed it onto our blogs. Embedding is quicker than downloading it.

We are learning to write recounts. Recounts can be presented in many ways , including visually. I have presented my recount through word art and photographs. 

Super Stan Recount

Super Stan Recount

On Wednesday the 7th of August my class and the rest of the
senior school were invited to see the dress rehearsal for a show
called The Amazing Adventures of Super Stan it was in the hall
at Grey Main.

At the start of the show Super Stan fought a Villain called the
Bogeyman and won the fight and when he won the Bogeyman
did an earrape yell (really loud yell) Then DC Stanley Marvels
best friend told Stan to stop daydreaming.

Then the Candy King came to Proton Park and said that he was
going to give everyone a free gobstopper. Stan, DC, and the old
people find out that the Candy King is evil so then his grandma
said that he was so clumsy because he had half of formula 44
inside of him. So she injects the rest of formula 44 into him and
then he turns into Super Stan and she also gives him his grandpa’s
old anti gravity undies so he can fly.

In the next scene Super Stan goes to the Candy King's palace
and Curly and Wurly tell Super Stan about the Candy King’s
plan. After the finish telling Super Stan the Candy King's evil
plan Super Stan fights the Candy King’s Minions  beats them all
and then fights the Candy King he wins and steals his shrink ray
and shrunk the Candy King but before Super Stan shrunk the Candy King he told Stan that he is his grandpa. After that Stan’s grandma said that she regretted being with him and then took him away.    

My opinion of this show is that I didn't really like it because it was quite childish and because some of the characters did some really loud noises.

Jake Bailey recount

On the 31th of July the senior school went to see Jake Bailey. He was brought to the West Coast by Life Education. He came here to talk to us about life skills after surviving cancer. He also talked about some other things like resilience, leadership, fears, and bravery. I think he was trying to teach us how to live a better life.

calligans ridge

On Thursday, my class was driven to Lake Daniell for a tramp as part
of the William Pike challenge. 

I was in Matt Leviens car, so were Sam, Tyler, Zac, and Cullam. We
left for the tramp at 8:30, It was about a 2 hour drive each way to get
to there, and the walk was about 4 hours so we came back at about 6
o'clock. 

When we got to the lake we had lunch and some people went on the
jetty and looked at the lake. Some people also touched the water to
see how cold it was.  

We went to Lake Daniell because we were learning about hypothermia
and how to not get lost in the bush?

       

calligans ridge

At Calligans ridge we did a scavenger hunt and I saw a Tomtit and a
Fantail but I was not really doing the scavenger hunt so I did not see
anything else.

It was raining hard at the start of the walk, but later on it stopped and
that was sortov bad because we had to make bivouacs and we wanted
to test if they could keep the rain out.

So I just shook some trees so the water off them fell on the bivouac.

I enjoyed the end of the walk when I could relax a bit and also slide in
the mud.
