last week I had to wake up a 6:30 because I had a bike race on. I didn't know what I was getting myself into because I had never done it before. When I got to Mt Summers I found Amber, the first thing I did was get registered I was doing the 20km bike. A few minutes after I got registered the race started. It was quite a long       bike ride, when I had finished the race and the last person had       finished we all got told what are score was and what the time we did it in was. The race I was in was under 18 girls and in that category I came third, my time was 1 hour and 20 minutes and the fast's time in my race was 1 hour and 7 minutes. On the way back I was very proud of the way I showed Active thinking by problem solving when I felt like giving up.

I woke up this morning with a startled expression on my face, it was 7:00 and Elle White had woken Ashley and I up. It was the day of the weetbix tryathlon and Ashley and I were doing it in a team. When we arrived I went over and put my bike in transition, at 9:10 Ashley and I went over to the briefing. At 10:10 it was time for the race, while I sat and waited Ashley was swimming. When Ashley came and tagged me I went out for the bike then when I came back in I ran down to Ashley and we ran 1km to the finish. when we were about to cross the line we held hands, then I went to a man and got a medal. I think that I did really well especially on the bike, I am very proud of Ashley for being my team mate and supporting me throughout this experience.

Today after school I was looking for something to do so I decided to do a home learning challenge. The one I chose to do was deliver some clothes to a charity. The first thing I needed to do was find some clothes that either were to small or old.After this I found a plastic bag to put them in and take them to the charity. When I got to the charity I got the bag and put it in the charity bin. After this I felt like I showed the CARE value of community by  helping out others who aren't as lucky as me.

After school today I decided that I would do a home learning challenge. I wanted to improve my fitness so I went to Pioneer Pool and swam 1km of freestyle, backstroke and breath stroke. At first I was excited about having a new challenge to face. But once I started I got exhausted and thrown into the learning PIT. To climb my out of here I started to slow down and catch my breath so I didn't get as exhausted. At  the end I was relieved that I was done and happy that it was over. My next step is to keep up the same pace throughout the 1km so that I don't get exhausted. The CARE value I           showed was Excellence because I never gave up through the whole 1km.

After school today I decided that I would bake some biscuits and deliver them to my neighbours. I baked butter biscuits as this was in my mums recipe book. Half way through the recipe I realised that I had to put the biscuits in the fridge for 2 hours, this brought me down a little because I didn't know we had to do this at the start and was hoping to deliver them to the neighbours earlier. My neighbours complimented my biscuits because they were crunchy on the outside and gooey in the middle. My next step is to read through the recipe before I start next time so I don't get confused.
The CARE value I showed during this was Respect because I spent my time baking biscuits and delivering them to my neighbours.
