Minigolf Blogpost. - 2016 - LJ


Today , On Tuesday we headed out again for mini golf in the hot sun  . For my partners it was  Me ( LJ ) , Azure , Fine , Eve and M.J . With our teacher Ms Morrison . Everyone else was sectioned off with other adults or teachers  . In minigolf there were two parts to it . So a set of groups had their own course to themselves down below where the moving monkey statue was and further down . But where me and my team were heading was up where the other set of courses were . Some going high and low . We first started on the course where it looked like a ' Key ' Course  . We took turns where all of our shots were rebounding of the concrete edge  on the course because without the concrete walls the shots would be going anywhere . But each course had their own section depending on how big the course but it was small enough for my teammates to fit in and we were told to stay off the green or else we would interrupt the others shots . I was close to interrupting Eve's shot but I dodged it by jumping above the ball , that small , small ball . Don't know why I jumped . I could have just gone wide and let it go through me . Heading onto the next course it was a shot that goes up but comes back down to go for the goal!. We were told  " You want to get the least to win " by our teacher Ms Morrison so I tried but I mostly got more so don't know if I lost or so because getting more would mostly mean you would lose but on some I got the least , Heading on there were many courses but we had to take a break soon enough right ? But we didn't know we had to leave early .With being told to eat and after we eat we have to go on the bus because the bus already arrived before we ate . Finishing our food , we head onto the bus with someone we never knew but heading back home we talked and never sang anything . But On the way back we mistakenly sang twinkle twinkle little star . Heading back we finished or reflections.

Celebrating Ourselves - LJ

Today we had learn't why it is very important to embrace our achievements and our own uniqueness ( me )


I am worthy to be celebrated because I found out what and why people like us and I also gain a sense of self value because if you think other people are special why not about yourself?.

My fellow classmates had described me as a person who makes others laugh , a good and nice person , a very active type of person and a weird person which I will probably take as a compliment and finally a trustworthy person also a intelligent person.

It is important to recognise value in yourself because I am special because I am part of a family who had mastered tattoos being passed down generation from generation , artist to artist .Although I can't do that myself ( mastering the art of tattoos ) but I have a different idea of what I might do for the future.

Where would you live - Timote and LJ

Where would you live

With humans evolving they have learned to live in a technologically world.They were presented  with great choices on where to live . They now have extensive choices  but people today still share the same fundamental and survival needs as their cave-dwelling ancestors with food and water , shelter from the elements and the protection from threats.

In 2011 , Archaeologists had discovered the oldest evidence of a cave used 77,000 years ago.From inside the Sibudu cave in South Africa . The investigations of the ancient beds revealed medicinal leaves , stems and grass in sediment then measuring about three metres of thick.


Caves had provided a natural ,convenient source of shelter . Along with protection from predators . Speleologists people who study caves and their features . Archeologists long have been aware of signs in early life in caves such as the remains of fires.


Early christians and other refugees who lived in what is now a region of Cappadocia had created entire cities over 3,500 years ago. To keep themselves safe from a prosecution and the underground city of Derinkuyu , was home to about 3,000 people and it had a few entrances that had easily could been blocked off. And it was of course defended.

The City had about 5 separate floors of caves and was inhabited to the depth of 60 metres. Caves had formed on the hillsides of Cappadocia .They had provided shelter for communities until the early part of the 20th century. Cave entrances can be visible or hidden . The historically Significant Skocjan caves   in Slovenia had some entrances .
