Shake out!

This week around New Zealand, we had a shake out. It is a drill for an earthquake followed by a tsunami. We are almost in the safe zone, we just need to cross a road and head up a hill. We had plenty of time, we just had to be weary of not standing on other peoples property while heading up the hill.

Greymain cup.

On the first day of the term, we did the Greymain cup. We all split up into team that play in the rugby world cup, and competed in different games. There was a game of Rippa rugby, Duck duck goose, A netball rugby competition game and many more. I was the captain of South Africa, and our team did well, we didn't place but we all enjoyed it.

Current Events: Storm Area 51, They Can't Stop All of Us.

Storm Area 51, They Can't Stop All of Us!

That is the title of the Facebook page that started it all. Over 2 Million people have signed up to attempt to raid the highest protected military base in America. The airspace over area 51 has been closed so that no drones can be flown to "Spot Aliens".
Area 51 is in Nevada, America. Nevada has a population of just over 3 million and is a state of America.
People planning to raid are apparently making strategies to get in, whether people flank in through the sides, or rush up the middle, that will be decided on September 20th, or the 21st for New Zealand.

72,843 (News)

Did you know that the Amazon rain forest is on fire? You probably know, but it hasn't been in the news very much. Already this year, there have been 72,843 fires recorded. The worst bit about it is that the isolated tribes, that live in the heart of the amazon, might die!! All of the tribes will have to escape from the flame, and run to safety through all of the fire, and hot spots. That would not be easy. All of the smoke would make it so hard to see, let alone run. I think that everyone should donate a bit of money so that the "Earths Lungs" Can live to breathe another day.
