<span style="font: normal normal normal 13px/normal Chalkduster; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">Dear Mr Gilmour

<span style="font: normal normal normal 13px/normal Chalkduster; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">Thank you for taking me around the Amazing Race on Wednesday and Thursday. I liked it when you helped us figure out the Red Woods activity, although we didn’t manage to complete it, it was nice that they let us carry on.

<span style="font: normal normal normal 13px/normal Chalkduster; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">It was funny when we tried to complete the activity at the Waihi Gold Mine and didn’t get any questions right except one. It was kind of you to drive us around everywhere and especially Rotorua. I liked it when you brought us an ice-cream at Memorial park, we all really appreciated you doing that for us.

<span style="font: normal normal normal 13px/normal Chalkduster; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">An activity that I really enjoyed was the tunnel walk on Wednesday (even though my shoes got extremely muddy and I knew I would get in trouble). It was difficult when we got to the Red Woods on Thursday because we couldn’t figure out how to do it. But then at the end we got the hang of it and moved on to Te Puia.

<span style="font: normal normal normal 13px/normal Chalkduster; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">Something I learnt was to always work as a team. Sadly we missed the last day because we were at swimming. It sounds like they had fun getting fish and chips and fizzy drinks. That would of been extremely yum!

<span style="font: normal normal normal 13px/normal Chalkduster; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">Your sincerely, <span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Andale Mono'; font-size: 13px; font: normal normal normal 13px/normal Chalkduster; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">Kata Brill

<span style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">Thank you for letting us use the maze for our Rimu Amazing Race.I liked it when we got there because we started cheering because we knew we were coming last.It was funny <span style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">when we tried to lift Hamish and tried to see were the next door was unfortunately Hamish couldn’t see anything.It was kind of you for letting us use the maze.It was difficult when we got inside the maze because everyone had finished the maze and we couldn’t find the middle. Something I learnt was to always stick as a team and practice going through the maze once, before trying to do it again. <span style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">Your sincerely <span style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">Kata Brill
