Then I Fell

Clip went the harness as my Mum put it on and off I went.  I was half way up then I fell.  I grabbed on as fast as I could, then I kept going.  It hurt when I put my feet on the metal part.  Then I got sweaty and I began to slip.


The lady said "Miss Tait is going to go down the slide" then I let go.  When I got there, Miss Tait was going up then she dropped, then I went back to the pole and I climbed as fast as I could, then I let go.

Plunging to the Ground

Climbing the wall of squares I felt like I would fall off.  I was struggling, then I fell off and plunged to the ground like a dead bird.

Thanks must go to the parent helpers who tirelessly "checked me", and also to Brooke's Mum for the photos which you can see below.

Step by step

Step by step I climb a big green pole, higher and higher I go.  Wobblier and wobblier it gets.  I say to myself "I'm nearly done."  People are standing down below me saying "put both hands out in the air!" So I put.....

Wheels Day Experiences

"Woohoo!" I happily shouted as I zoomed through the obstacle course on my blue and star covered bike.  The obstacle course had cones you had to squiggle through, a chalk made zebra crossing, a stop sign you had to stop at and a cone you had to ride around.


So first I squiggled left, right, left, right, through the line of cones, then zoomed to the zebra crossing made by chalk.  Then I jumped off my bike and ran across the chalk crossing holding my bike.


When I got across, I jumped back on to my bike, then I zoomed to the stop sign and screeeched in front of the stop sign.

Wheel Orienteering


Puffing we bike to the hall.  "I've found the clue!" Daneka shouted. "It is the letter E!" Johanri shouted while falling over in the bark.
