Principal's Challenge
In my last post I told you how I achieved high standards in a maths and science test getting into a an extension program in my future high school. Now I will tell you about something else I aced. It is term 3's Principal Challenge. Every term the years 6 and 7 have principals challenge while the younger years a luckier and get year level challenge. Principals Challenge is a big test but the hook is instead of being tested by your teacher or having it on paper our principal actually comes and does it herself. In the test there are 20 multiplication questions, 20 mixed operation maths questions, 20 spelling words (we have a study sheet of 85 words to study with) and 10 general knowledge questions (we also get a study sheet for that as it is on a different topic every time). The aim in the first term is to get 100% or be in the top 20 ( principals challenge) or top 5 (year level challenge) in the second, third and forth term the aim is 100%, top 20 or top 20 most improved. Last term (term 3) I got a visit from one of the year 6-7 teachers. They had come to get me to change a letter in and answer I had accidentally spelt wrong in the general knowledge, instead of Tae Kwon Do I had put Kae Kwon Do but my teacher and our principal had agreed that it was close enough but they were going to get me to change it so they didn't get confused and mark it wrong. The only reason they had gotten me to do that was because had they not let me do that I would have only gotten 99% but they said I deserved 100% so they let me change it so I could get 100% and not be so annoyed at myself because of that stupid mistake. Either that or they wanted to see if I could keep up that standard for the next 5 principals challenges I will have to got through. So this time round I got 100% in the top 20 and I think I might get most improved. So good luck to me for this coming term!
Mathematics, Science + LEAP
Last term (term 3) all the year 6's had a big science and mathematics test. The test was also and entrance test for something at the high school Kieran goes to and that I will be going to called LEAP.
LEAP (Lesmurdie Extension and Acceleration Program) is the extension maths and science class. After completing the test at a high standard mum had to fill in some forms about me or something and my teacher had to also fill in a form about my behavior level homework standard and other things. after all that got through mum received a letter from Lesmurdie high school for my acception in to the LEAP class. 3 others from my class also got into LEAP. So I can't wait to start high school not only because I have gotten into that extension class but because there are still more extension classes to get into that Kieran has not yet gotten into and because many of my friends will be going to that school as well.

Horses
Hey, I told you 2 things, well more than that but only 2 things really count in this one.
Anyway, I told you that I have planned 17 posts to write and that I would write about horses well this is a post about horses. And with the 17 post thing I will bore you later. But for now HORSES FOR THE GO!!!
As you may or may not know I collect horses. Not real ones of course because if I did then I wouldn't have any. I collect horse figurines of the brand name 'Schleich' and at the moment I own 58 horses which takes up 3 shelves on my book shelf- A BIG PAIN!!!!! Because it means I now only have 3 shelves to fit my books on, and if you know me than you'll know that that is very little space for my books.
Yeah. yeah I know SO many horse I have hey. AND there are still so many more I wish to get (and might be getting for my incoming birthday in about 3 months time. Here are the horses I have (But just the names) Enjoy...
