This week the students are off school. Hopefully they are spending time out in the fresh air... and not on the computer haha!
Last Thursday we did something that was quite different. 20 students and 2 teachers all met up at 6.30 pm at Vitlycke museum. We started with hot chocholate and a cheese roll in the restaurant and then we went out to look at the rock carvings in in the dark. Our guide had a large torch -and the carvings showed up really well. Hopefully we can upload some photos as one of the girls managed to take some nice shots.

Autumn Poems
Autumn
The different colours
The trees which drop their leaves
The sun which has stopped to shine
Everything gets dark
Nothing is great anymore
The autumn’s here!
Raindrops
The rain is falling against the ground
No one prevents it to happen
No one wants, no one cares
No one cares about the raindrops
They think that it’s something usual
But the tears,
which rolls down the girl’s cheek,
Comes from deep inside…
//Ida K

What did everybody else do when year 9 was in Stockholm?
During the whole week there were different activities - and few lessons:
One day we were on Ranebo.It was two classes there at the same time. First one class stayed and did cooperation exercises. We were going to come over ropes and balance on a log at the same time you changed places. The other class were going to a large look out tower called Amundshatt. When we had finished the exercise and had come back from the walk and we had lunch.

We’ve looked at a movie called Hip Hip Hora. (known as The Ketchup Effect in most English-speaking countries)
Most of puppils have already seen that movie, but they still like it. ! J
The movie is about three girls called Emma,Sofie and Amanda which have begun 7th grade.They are very interested in some boys called Maouse, Jens and Sebbe. During a party, Sofie becomes far too drunk and is unconscious, and Mouse and Jens take humiliating photos of her. Almost the entire school see the photos and everything collapses for Sofie.Sofie loses her friends, and she wants to kill herself. During another party she jumps out of a window. She is taken to hospital, and after she have come back to school, everybody is very kind to her. At the end of the movie, Sebbe says sorry and ask her out for dinner

The second of October year eight had information about high school, as we start when we leave Ninth grade.
Åke (the man who speaks about high school) said that there are many kinds of programs that you can chose what ever you want.
We have around 20 different courses, for example the community program; there you can read history, religion and geography, the Vehicle Engineering Programme; where you learn about cars and stuff, the Child Recreation Programme; where you go if you want to be a nursery-school teacher. We learn a lot during the information. J

She had all of her outfit carried on her belt, pepper spray, gun, night stick, flashlight, radio, handcuffs, car keys, mobile and ammunition.
She talked about how you can become a police and what you do. What different kinds of police characters you can be. Dog police, horse police, criminal police, patrol police and many other kinds of police.

CPR
One of the activities was learning CPR.
We had a doll called little Ann. Everyone had a doll. The first we did was to give the doll cardiac compression. After that we learned how to give the mouth-to-mouth method.
The dolls ribcage rose up when you were blowing right.
Then we learned how to do when somebody is out of breath. First of all you will thump the person on the back. If it doesn’t work you have to push under the chest.
Films
We saw two films, called “Ondskan” which means “the evilness” and “Brandstegen” or “the fire ladder”
They are two Swedish films.
“Ondskan” is about a boy called Erik. He starts at a new school, with strange rules. The pupils are bringing up each other. And Erik gets into trouble. The film took place in the fifties, in Sweden.
“Brandstegen” is about drugs. It shows how bad it is to take drugs. The film was made by some pupils near Gothenburg, which is Sweden’s second biggest city.

We also learnt about how to handle a fire extinctioner and what to do if someone catches fire. We practised with the local fire brigade!
Chanterelles
Chanterelle is a delicates in Sweden. It is a mushroom which you can do many things with. You can have it on sandwich, in soup or in a sauce. Chanterelles are growing in very wet pleaces. It grows in the forest during fall. Sometimes they can be very hard to find, but when you find them there is always a lot of them. To grow they need rain at least one time every week. You can preserve them by using the freezer or you dry them. There are two sorts of Chanterelle the yellow and brown. What you see on the picture is the brown one.

Year 9 are back from Stockholm
So now have all 9 graders returned from Stockholm. We had a nice time with a lot of laughter and a few tears.
The bus for Stockholm left Tanum around 9 o’clock on Monday morning.
We stopped for Burger King after some time. We looked on some movies for example Sleepy Hollow in Italian I think the movie’s name was Il Mistero di Sleepy Hollow.
Our trip continued and around 6pm we arrived to Stockholm and Af Chapman the hostel we were going to live in. Every one started with a walk to Old Town which is a district in Stockholm. On our way we walked past the Royal Castle and its many guards we stood an looked at one specific guard a little too long because he called for backup and soon 4-5 other guards came and told us to keep moving.
After that we could move freely and almost everyone started looking for a restaurant were we could eat dinner. Me and my friends found a Mexican fast food restaurant and almost everyone eat Tacos or Burrito.
Next day we went to Djurgården an area in Stockholm were many Museums and Grönalund is. Grönalund is an amusement park.
I visited Skansen a big Zoo with Both Swedish animals and some exotic animals inside.
Then on the afternoon we could go shopping and do almost what ever we wanted.
We eat on nice restaurants and bought clothes, shoes & jewellery.
Next day we Visited the Government and parliament it wasn’t so fun that we thought it should be as the man how guided us was boring. Lars Tysklind was his name.
On that afternoon we also visited the Army Museum there we saw some tanks, different weapons and stuff like that mostly things for the war geek.
We shopped that evening and sat on cafés talking about that these days had gone fast and that we wanted to stay longer. We stayed up almost the whole night because the teachers couldn’t punish us by sending us home because we were going home the nest day anyway. But I think they had very much fun chasing us around Af Chapman but they kept it a secret.
The bus trip home was so unbelievable boring we saw the same movie and stopped for food on the same place as we were going up. Almost everyone were sleeping and complained that they had a headache.
We came home around 7 o’clock the same evening.

We went home on Thursday morning.

Moose in the Garden!
There many moose in Sweden. They just walk around in our gardens and eat apples, when they eat apples they sometimes get drunk!
The moose live in the deep deep forest. They say that there is only ONE white moose in the hole Sweden.
Each year they can only have 2 calves.
Every January- February the male looses its horns.
The males are larger than the female and weights much more. The photo shows a moose with two calves. The photo is shot by our teacher in her garden!
