Hi I’m Wilson I’m year six and I go to Enrich. This is my fourth and final year at Enrich. My favourite of the four cornerstones (mental edge, concept curriculum, talent development/passion time and affective domain) is mental edge because you get to play chess.

As we left Enrich I wondered what pictures I might find of patterns. And as soon as we had stepped out of the building I saw Zillions of patterns "Man." I told myself this is going to be a long day. First stop the libary. As I was walking down the road to the library we were stopping nearly every five steps because there where so many patterns. When we got to the library the amount of patterns was amazing. I had never realised that there where so many patterns. As we walked around I was snapping all the patterns I could see. This was awesome. Then just down the road was our next stop Wachner Place. One of the parents said "Hey look at" She was looking at something through her sun glasses that no-one else could see. I had a look and I though it was pretty cool so I put the camera up to her sun glasses and took a photo. Next stop Countdown. When we finally got to Countdown we had to put our cameras away because we weren't allowed to take photos inside the store. When that was done Max and I had taken at lest a hundred photos! Next stop, Enrich for a snack and to get our lunch boxes so that we could got to Queens Park for lunch. It was so cool there. We went to the Japanese garden, the cactus garden and the museum and now back here. What a day!

"Yes!" I told myself. Finally I thought of my topic for my documentary...... THE MARMITE DROUGHT!!! Great I can get started. So I began the documentary on THE MARMITE DROUGHT!!!!!! Drag, drop and type was my pattern and boy that pattern was effective. I now have 19 seconds of movie and most of my storyboard done. Now what to do next? "Check!"
"Not now." Oh no Jayden has killed my bishop I must avenge it. Yes I have his Queen. "Checkmate Jayden. Good game." "You too Wilson." Yes I had bet Jayden at chess and moved 4 spots against my arch rival Max.
"Blue, Red, Green,Yellow, Purple and Magenta, Yes I had earnt my colour and that was cerise! The aim of this game is first you have 4-5 people standing up the front, and they have a colour on their back, (it is just a sticky note with a colour written on it). The people up the front stand in a line, and say their colour, and then everyone else has to close their eyes and the people up the front with the colours on their back swap places. The audience then has a turn at guessing the order of the colours. If they guess correctly, they get a colour, and they get added to the list of colours to remember! Can't wait for next week to come.

Done!!!! Finally I had finished my passion time proposal, Now time to go show a teacher. I slowly headed over to Katie to get it checked but Oh no she was with someone else.
Oh well I will just have to wait a minute, then, let down again! All of a sudden I saw the five or six person line in front of me then inside I could hear myself crying NNNNNOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Five minutes later the line moved forward, then two minutes later I was upside down chatting away to everyone possible. Finally it was my turn, a couple of minutes later I had to start again - oh well. At least I know what I want to do now, I'm going to film a documentary and enter this years MADE awards.
At the start of the morning we watched a movie call Caine's arcade, about a 9 year old boy who made an arcade out of cardboard! If you want to watch this video click the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=faIFNkdq96U
After that we played a Wilson game where there are four hoops and 4 bean bags and you have to chuck beanbags into the hoop within a 3 minute time limit. You need 2 - 4 teams each with an even amount of players. You can play the game in many ways like - Get them in in order or with each hoop having an amount of points.

The day of adventures
Finally I'm back from my many adventures. Last week I was up in sunny Christchurch and the week before that I was at year six camp and the week before that I didn't get my post done so this is my first post in ages. The morning started with debatable truths and we had a recap on what we knew about patterns and then we moved onto the Wilson game, Piccadilly Circus, the record was 28 seconds by the Wednesday group and our time was.....................31 seconds so close !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Next we had a discussion about the Polyfest competitions. Topics were T-shirt design, Art exhibition and Community Lei design. Well thats all folks, for now ....
