  Swimming

On Friday we went to the pool for a swim because stinking hot and we were exhausted. Everyone jumped in and it was really refreshing. The pool all of a sudden turned into waves. All of the juniors and some of the seniors were there. Most of the classes went to the end of the pool to the deep end and did manu and staples into the pool. There was so much yelling involved. If you wanted to talk to someone you had to yell at the top on your lungs. We were in the cold pool for one hour. 















How to make fluffy slime and regular slime.

What you will need

  • Glue (PVA)
  • Food colouring 
  • Shaving cream (more shaving cream more fluffier)
  • Borax (1 teaspoon at a time)
  • Bowl
How to make it

You get your bowl and glue out then pour as much glue you want into your bowl. Once you have done that put 1 teaspoon of food colouring in the bowl and mix it till your glue is the colour you want. Then add your shaving cream (the more shaving cream the fluffier it will be). Mix it well till the are all combined. Then get your borax and hot water and get 1 teaspoon of borax and mix till you can't see the borax. Once you have done that get 1 teaspoon of borax and put it in your bowl and mix till it is all sticking together. You can add more borax if it isn't sticking together. 



How to make regular slime
What you will need:


  • 1 teaspoon of borax 
  • white PVA glue
  • 1 cup of warm water
  • food colouring (optional)
  • glitter (optional)

Add your borax to a cup of warm water and mix until dissolved. Put as much PVA glue into your bowl as you want (as much glue you have is how much slime you have). Add food colouring and mix. Add little bits of activator at a time (dissolved borax) and mix until it all sticks together. Tap your finger on your slime if comes off clean then take it out and knead it and play with it. It will get more stretchy the more you play with it.
