Welcome to our blog. We are a class of Year 6-8 students at Blaketown School in Greymouth, New Zealand. Our teacher is Miss Smith. Thanks for visiting!

At our school we are really into cycling as we are right beside the West Coast Wilderness Cycle Trail. This means we do lots of biking. Each Monday our class bikes to the local Aquatic Centre for swimming, this is part of our fitness. After swimming we have a vote about which route we will take back to school. One way involves going down a steep hill called Brewery Hill as its beside the Monteiths Brewery, this is probably our favourite as we can cruise down really fast. Our other favourite way is biking into town to the Grey River and getting on the Cycle Trail at The Warehouse, the biking around the harbour, fishing boats and down to the Tip Head (river mouth) to see if there are any fishing boats coming in then back to school. The third way we often choose is to bike past our local aerodrome (on the cycle trail) and stop at the local BMX track to play. The longest trip we have done was at the end of term one and as our last day treat we went on a bus and biked 42km along the trail back to school. It was an awesome day with lots of laughter. Some people learnt more about resilience on the hills and as they got tired in the hot sun.

ReplyDeleteHi Room 2,
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a fun day out! I have a question to: Where was the start of your 42km ride? I think that I would love to do that 42km ride.

Hi Griffin, we started at Kawaka and biked all the way back to our school in Blaketown. It was a challenge getting here but we all made it.
