The Easter Island Mystery/Spark My Curiosity

Some People might wonder why there is status dotted around Easter Island. The remote island is made up off volcanic rock and the rainwater is soaked up so easily that is can not form pools of water. Then Scientist found out that the water underground flows downhill, and at low tide, flows into the sea. The people then could hang buckets or other rain catching things over the edge of the hills and collect the water. The status are markers to show where the water is catchable.

Holidays T4 Wk1

What Are Holidays Good For?: Holidays are good for catching up with friends and family, going on holidays. They are also good for sleeping. You don't have to worry about sleeping in too long and being late to work or school.

What are holidays not good for?: When you're stuck at home doing nothing it is very easy to eat because of boredom. You could eat way too much and become fat. You could ruin your sleeping pattern.

Cross Country Reflection

On Monday 20th August my school had cross country. XC is held at south farm, just outside of Ngatea. The first age group to go was 11 yrs. It then went 5 yrs, 6 yrs, 7 yrs and all the way up to 12 yrs (excluding 11 yrs). The coarse was different this year, we had to go small, big, killer, big and then to the finish. I came 12th and didn't make it to Hauraki Plains. Tbh I am kinda glad I didn't make it because I don't like running and it hurts my knees.

Toes are great! They help you balance and grip onto things. Toes maintain contact to the ground 75% of the time. They also help the feet bear the weight of the body. The most important toes are the big toe and the little toe. They help maintain balance slightly more than the others. But the downside is they smell, really bad!!!
