My Trip to Rangitoto Island

On Wednesday the 15th of November 2017,room 9, room 10 and some of room 8 and room 7 went on a trip to Rangitoto Island to learn how Rangitoto Island was formed from  a series of volcanic eruptions under the sea.

First we went on the bus.On the bus we all sang lots of songs and played lots of games,We did a million jokes and we all laughed like we were silly clowns. It was a fantastic and amazing time on the bus.

Next we went on the ferry. Pitara, Mena, Mason, Jodacei,Penelope and I were  in a group,so we had to set together on one table. We had a elated time because we played I spy,we slept on each other and we saw Kelly Tarltons and One Tree hill. When I was on the ferry, I felt like I had know fear of going  on ferry anymore.

Then we arrived at Rangitoto Island, we went on the bridge. It was so terrifying when I walked on  it. My legs were wobbling like spaghetti and my arms froze into 2 cubes.

After the bridge,we went to the shelter. We took a quick snack and on we went to reach the top of the mountain. When me and my group member Mason reached  half way we were so tired that we were going to faint. Mason and I took a 50 seconds break and we carried on walking. When I got on the rock stairs I tripped and hurt my leg hitting the pointy part of it and Mason disappeared. I lied on the stairs and waited until he came back but he didn’t. Only 1 person came to me and it was my friend Kestrel.When I was lying on the stairs he started shouting out “HELP SOANE’S DEAD!!!”

When Kestrel was still shouting, my captain Mrs Lavender came and helped me. She gave me water  to drink and I felt better,then I carried on walking. When I stood up I just ran like I was a cheetah and reached the summit. When I reached the summit I quickly got my lunch and ate it all.

After we had lunch we went back down the hill and went on the ferry.

I would like to go to Rangitoto Island again.THE END
