Self Portrait

Just My tree and Me

 Just My Tree and Me
Me and tree have been best friends 
Since we were three. 
We are just little
Just My Tree & me

Now we’re nine and doing just fine
I play music on tree,
Bang, Bong, Bing
Just My Tree & me

Me and my tree are now eleven 
Tree wraps his arms around me,
And I feel happy, 
Just my tree and me

Me and tree have just turned fifteen
I lie in his branches,
And we read adventurous stories  
Just my tree and me 

Now we’re 18 and I have to say goodbye
I really don’t want to cry
 We were always besties,
Just my tree and me...

Lake Daniell

Lake Daniell


Last Wednesday the 12th of June. Rooms 1 and 8 went on a tramp
at Lake Daniell. Ms Kemp and Mrs Robins came with us along with
8 other parents. It took us 5 hours to walk the track. While we were walking
the track we had to work in groups  for a treasure hunt.


We went to Lake Daniell because rm 1 and 8 are doing the William Pike
Challenge award. Since we are learning about hypothermia we decided to go
in winter. We had to keep lots of warm layers on to stop us getting cold.


We had lunch at the hut. Once we were finished our lunch some of us went onto
the jetty. We didn’t stay long once we were finished our lunch because it had
started to lightly rain. We didn’t stop on the way back but on the way


Lake Daniell is near Lewis Pass. Lewis Pass is part of the Southern Alps.
The track starts at a campsite just past Springs Junction.
It follows a river up the land for part of the way and then the river breaks of.
The track leads to Lake Daniell.


This trip could not have happened if we had not had all the lovely parents
volunteer to help us. They had to transport us there and back. We are very
thankful to them and the teachers because without them we wouldn’t have
been able to go. We also made this trip happen by having the right gear.
If we hadn't have the right gear we wouldn’t be able to go because we
would probably get hypothermia.
