Assembly
On Monday we had Assembly, it was Room 10's turn to host.
We started by singing a song. After that volunteers had chosen to play a game. They had to get up and follow the instructions that they were given. The game they played was called heads up, it's kind of like charades but in a different way. It was really fun playing against the teachers. When the game was finished it was time for another game called hip hop but everybody won. After those two games it was time to sing another song. Shortly after the teacher's had to hand out the certificates'. When the teachers had handed out the certificates to the students it was time for the special clap. Once the assembly was over we had to head back to class.

Daily Fitness
For daily fitness we had to jog around the senior block for ten to fifteen minute.s we had to do this process till the end of the week. While we are jogging and running we had ton run up a hill then go around the basketball court, round the the toilets then back up the hill again. If you were a slow runner
you had to move to the left and let the fast runner pass .
We dont run every week I think it changes. When we don't do running we do circuits. Circuits is different fitness as you go around each cone. One whistle is blown to move on to the next exercise. There are eight different exercises to do .When we've done all of them the person who has the whistle will blow the whistle two times to finish.

Making Bolognese
Today at Tech we made Bolognese!
We always have to follow the recipe that our teacher gives us or else we aren't allowed to make any dishes. The ingredients we used were very basic. We used pre-made pasta, onions, garlic, sauce, meat balls and a little bit of cheese.
Once the pasta was cooked, I started cooking the meat balls. When the meat was cooked, I added the sauce.
Now that everything was cooked I was able to combine the pasta and meat. I then transferred some of the Bolognese to a plate. When the Bolognese was ready on the plate I sprinkled cheese over it.
I thought it tasted like spaghetti and sausage.

Ham and cheese toast
Today at Tech we made ham and cheese toast.
We had to get six pieces of bread and cut the crust and dip all of the bread in eggs, ham and cheese. Then we put them into the pan with melted butter then waited for the bread to turn into a golden brown colour.
When the bread was done we put them on the plate and took a photo.

In the Hoildays
In the holidays I slept in and didn't do anything productive. Eventually I got bored so, I decided to watch a few movies and eat snacks. I then got invited to my little cousin's birthday party. She was turning one years old. The party was unicorn themed. It was really fun but, I thought it was going to be boring. There was a bouncy castle, PiƱata and a big feed. After when the party was finished we went home
It was a very busy week for us planing a lot of birthdays. My sisters birthday was right around the block. The next few days it was my second oldest sister birthday who just turned 18 we just stayed home and celebrated it.

When it was ready we put the pieces of french toast on the plate and then took a photo of it.
