Room 8's Fishing Trip

Sau's Fishing Recount - The Fishing Day

On Thursday Room 8 went to the wharf.  It was the first time I'd been there.  I was amazed because I felt that I was going to get a fish, but I didn't.

Next I went to get more bait because the fish ate my bait.

Then I felt a fish on my hook, but when I pulled my fishing rod up my bait was gone. 

After that, I smelt my hands.  They smelt like toxic gas.  I said to myself "After this, I'm going to have a bath."  I HAD FUN!  I also saw lots of fishing rods and bait catchers.

Richmond's Fishing Recount - An Exciting Fishing Day!

The day we went fishing, I felt happy.  I thought I might catch a fish.  When we started to walk to the wharf I felt excited... but when I started to fish, I felt bored.  I waited and waited and I didn't catch a fish.  So I was sad.

After that, Mr Lintott ordered the people with no fishing rods to go away and let the fishermen have their time (people with no line or rods went away).

Then we were ordered to go into our classroom lines.  After that we came back to T.P.S.  I felt normal.  I felt pretty okay.

Sam's Fishing Recount - Fishing for Kaimoana

On Thursday the senior syndicate went fishing.  When the senior syndicate got to the Panmure wharf, they were excited to fish.  After that, we threw our fishing rods and bait catchers into the salty sea.  While I was waiting for fish to come by, I heard seagulls squawking around and eating our kaimoana.  After that, we walked back bored and sleepy to school.  On the way to school I was hungry and tired.  Finally we were at school.  I wish we could do that experience again.

Mehi's Fishing Recount - Senior Fishing Trip

On Thursday at 1:00PM we went fishing with the whole senior syndicate.  It was fun.  Charday and I got out our fishing supplies.  Next we got some bait and attached it onto our fishing hook.  After that, we dipped our fishing hooks into the sea salted water.  Then we waited for a long time.  I checked my fishing hook to see if my bait dropped off, but it didn't, so I dropped it back in.  Later on I saw a man in a kayak, kayaking past as we were laughing with joy.  I did not catch any fish so we had to pack up our fishing tools.  Finally we walked back to school.  I felt amazed.

Sione's Fishing Recount

Yesterday the whole senior syndicate marched to go fishing.  I felt surprised and amazed all the parents came to help us.  I saw the sea moving across the rocks and I saw a bridge that kept us safe.  When I could not find my fishing rod, Miss Hansell told me to share with Darwin.  Then me and Darwin were bored waiting.  We marched back to school and walked past Dunkirk.  I enjoyed going fishing.

Muatau's Fishing Recount - Going Fishing.

Before we went fishing, we had a little feast with delicious fish and chips.  We had a safety talk about hitting people with hooks because hooks are very sharp.  When I went to the wharf, I saw people panicking because their bait catchers sailed away.  I heard people moaning and I heard splashes.  I was so furious from fishing because I caught nothing and my bait catcher floated away.  Then I felt happy again by watching people fishing.  I smelt a disgusting smell from the bait.  It smelt like rotten socks.  I couldn't believe that I was going fishing for the first time.  I was blasted with excitement.  When we got back to school, I felt happy because that was the first time I went fishing.
