education days. The Yr 8 students photo's got put up on screen from when they first started school right up to 2016.  We got a certificate that was signed by the teachers and also got awards I never got an award because I never listened and went on the wrong site's during class time. I feel a little bad for not listening and g always got in trouble but people make mistakes and those mistakes we make can be fixed if we try keep out of trouble and listen..

Dreydon and Kate

In my class we had a author Kate that came in with a man called Dreydon. Dreydon came to talk about what he needed in the hillary trail and so that we can tell them both our goals and what we want to achieve.

Dreydon came around to each table and talked about what we wanted to work towards in our goal setting.

Kate came in with Dreydon to share with us what she planed for their 80km walk. The smart thing about Dreydon and the people that did the walk to raise up money for the schools is that they all took supplies.
