adrenalin forest

Hello everyone thank you for looking at my blog today i'm talking about Adrenalin Forest. Adrenalin Forest courses feature over 100 fun filled challenges across six levels. Each level is harder than the last, with obstacles starting at 1.5 metres above the ground that are suitable for a wide range of ages and fitness levels. To conquer the whole course and claim your bragging rights, you’ll be climbing, jumping and swinging at least 20 metres up in the air.
This isn’t just a test of your physical skills - each obstacle can be conquered in different ways, so you’ll be stretching your brain as well. Challenges include the Indiana jump, crossed logs, barrels, wrecking balls, a commando flying fox and Tarzan jump.

Thank you for looking and reading if you enjoyed leave a comment.

Women in WW1

In hurumanu 1 I have been learning about women in ww1.

The early Polynesian navigaters

In science we have been learning about the polynesian navigaters


Early polynesion navigation: 


Would you be able to cross the pacific ocean without a GPS? The early polynesion wayfinders used clouds, water, stars,sun, birds, and fish to navigate the ocean.

They used clouds, water, stars, sun, birds and fish to navigate because they had nothing else to use to navigate.


They used clouds to reflect the lagoons and then they knew an island was close by.

Also big groups of clouds would be above a mountainous island. 


Birds could fly 190km from land. Also they would fly back to land eventually.


The polynesion navigators used the sun to travel east and west.  The sun would rise in the east. And set in the west.


In conclusion, the early polynesion wayfinders used clouds, water, stars, sun, birds, and fish to navigate the ocean.
