Sherbet Experiment.

Today we made sherbet. The ingredients we used to make the sherbet were baking soda, icing sugar, citric acid and tartaric acid. We also used wooden  Popsicle sticks to eat the sherbet. I was in a group of four. We had measured the amount of ingredients we needed to use. Our recipe was two scoops of icing sugar, 1 scoop of tartaric acid, one scoop of citric acid and one scoop of baking soda. Our sherbet was a success and was not to sweet and not to bitter. It was a really fun experiment and was awesome learning how to make sherbet.

Weetbix tryathlon

On Wednesday I went to the Weetbix Tryathlon. It is held in south Auckland. My event was first. Ready set GO! I swam as fast as I could. During the swim everyone pushed and shoved. After I ran to my bike and put my gear on and I was of. After the bike was the run. The run felt short and easy. Before I new it I could see the finish. Gina and Frankie were waiting at the end for me. I crossed the line and my medal got awarded to me. I got given an apple and a cup of water. Then I got my photo taken and headed back to the tent. I supported the other racers until prizegiving. I didn't win anything. What a fun day. I can't wait for next year.
