<span style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Dear Master Chicken.

<span style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">My name is Karl Jones, I am one of the students from our Tauranga Intermediate school Amazing Race and I had the job of cooking the fish and chips for my group, and we got to eat it as fast as we could. Thank you for helping me make the batter to go on the fish and helping me cook the chips. It was interesting to watch when you put the fish in the tub and just see it turn into battered fish. It was hard when we had to wait for ages to get in the shop to actually make our fish and chips. I enjoyed it when we got to try and eat the fish and chips as fast as we could and then cleaning the news paper. It was funny when we were all so full that all of our stomachs ached and we all wanted more! <span style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Thanks again.

<span style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Yours sincerely <span style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Karl

<span style="font: normal normal normal 16px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">My group and I are very thankful that you could take your time off work just to drive us to our destinations on the three days of the Amazing Race so I am writing to thank you for being there for us and helping us get from 10th place to 7th place! It was kind of you to help us when we were stuck in KatiKati with one of the mural questions and you gave us a bit of a shove to get us back in the race. It was very funny when you were not here and we went to Blokart Heaven. One of the activities we did there was that Thomas had to eat a whole Kiwifruit and he spat half of it out on the ground because he couldn’t swallow it, that was funny alright! It was kind of you to buy me an ice cream with your own money at the end of the first day while we had a look at some of the really cool hot rods and fancy cars at Waihi gold mine. An activity I truly enjoyed was after the fish had been filleted I got to cook it and make the chips, then eating them as fast as we could was pretty enjoyable as well (and yum of course) but the only down side to that was that I was really full after polishing that newspaper till it was spotless! I think that it was challenging when we were coming last and we had to try and catch up to the other teams that were already leaving the activity we were still trying to achieve. Something important that I learnt was that team work will really help you with anything you do in the Amazing Race. I hope you enjoyed it as much as we all did. Thanks again.

<span style="font: normal normal normal 16px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px;">Yours sincerely,

<span style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">My name is Karl Jones, I am one of the people from our school Amazing Race and I had the job of cooking the fish and chips for my group and I to eat as fast as we could. Thank you for helping me make the batter to go on the fish and helping me cook the chips. It was interesting to watch when you put the fish in the tub and just see it turn into battered fish. It was hard when we had to wait for ages to get in the shop to actually make our fish and chips. I enjoyed it when we got to try and eat the fish and chips as fast as we could and then cleaning the news paper. It was funny when we were all so full that all of our stomachs ached and we all wanted more! <span style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; letter-spacing: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Thanks again.

An activity I really enjoyed was making the fish & chips and then eating them. Now that was fun (and yum of course)! I think that it was difficult when we were coming last and we had to try and catch up to the other teams that were ahead of us. Something I learnt was that team work is really important for anything in the Amazing Race.
