KAYAKING By rory q

Last weekend,at 6 :15 ing the morning, me, my Dad and his friend Jon went kayaking all the

way around the jumierah palm (which is 14km!) We woke up at 5:30 on friday morning and drove

down to the palm were we met Jon my dads friend. His friend had a house on frond B and

he Kept his kayaks there. at 6 :15 we began!



The kayak took us 2 hours and 30 minuites including brakes and was extremly tireing .

Even my dad, who goes kayaking every day thought it was challenging. On the way around

we saw fish, crabs, Barakuda and even 2 rays !

the whole experience was amazing and I wish I could do it again altough afterwards I

Kings' Year 6 link up with Little Harrowden School (Mr Rees' school)

I'm sure that many of Year 6 who have been at Kings' for a long time will fondly remember Mr Rees.

 Mr Rees and I worked together for the almost the first 2 years of Kings' being open, when you guys were in year 1 and 2. Mr Rees taught in year 6 and Year 4 as well as being part of the School Leadership team.

Mr Rees and I have remained friends ever since. (Mr Watson still misses his good banter, staffroom games and his funky bass playing!)

Mr Rees is now a succesful headteacher at Little Harrowdeen, in the UK. Why don;t you find out more about his school by visiting their brilliant website:

http://littleharrowden.nthink.net/

http://www.littleharrowden.northants.sch.uk/

I have shared our blog with Mr Rees and Ms Foo,  Year 6 Teacher. The children of Littel Harrowden will be checking out oiur blog to see what we get up to.

The plan is we will be doing some great collobartive work between the 2 schools once  we have finished SATs. Watch this space for more information.
