Dear Rotary Club

Thank you for being kind and loving to us by giving us beautiful dictionaries to use and read. We now be able to correct the word we spelt wrong. I will enjoy looking up new and amazing words to use in my writing. I also like the pictures in the dictionary. I will use my new dictionary with care and I will treasure it forever.

Love Moana

My mum

My mums name is Phyllis. She is forty one years old. She lives with my sister Stephanie ,my brother Tyson and I.

Her hair is nice, it has the colour Brown and Purple. She also has brown eyes that sparkle.

The things that she likes to do is to be with my sister and I. She loves my sister and I soooo much.

My mum is always at her best and always makes sure that we have food, shelter, and love. She always takes us to church because she wants us to be good people when we grow up.

I love my mother because she always wants the best for me and the family.

Why I love school?

Today I am going to tell you why I love school. There are many reasons why I love school so lets get started!

I love school because every week we have exercise in the hall which helps keep us fit. Exercise in the hall is also very fun when doing it with friends.

Another reason is its good learning about Jesus. I like learning about how Jesus  suffered for us on the cross. I also love reading the Bible, because I can learn how to follow in Jesus' footsteps and learn about how he lived.

I love school because we get to make Butter and Jelly. It is good to learn to make food because one day I can cook for my family without getting hurt by the stove or hot water.

I love school because I can be with my friends and I can make new friends. They are real blessing to me. My friends always help me when I feel sad and they share their lunch with me when I have nothing to eat.

I like learning about the world and the stages I am going to be in life. The best part about school is learning. I love school.

My Wonderful Holiday - Moana

In the holiday I went to Rainbows End. We went there on my Uncles bus. I went with my mum, nana, two sisters and my friend. 

There were so many rides at Rainbows End. The first ride that I went on was the "Pirate Ship". Next ride we went on was the "Fearfall" it was scary.

The last ride we went on was the bumper boats. My friend and I kept on bumping into each other.

After Rainbows End we went home. On our way home my mum said that we could have McDonald's at the beach. My nana didn't want to come to the beach because she was tired after Rainbows End.

When we got to the beach we ate and made sandcastles. It was fun

Gymnastics - Moana

On a beautiful Tuesday morning my friends and I were buzzing with excitement. We were excited because we were gonna be learning Gymnastics. 

After morning tea we had five minutes to get changed into our P.E clothes. After getting our P.E clothes on we were off to the Saint Pius hall. 

First we met our new coach, Mr Flaminio. Mr Flaminio sounds Italian but he is Brazilian. He is a nice coach but he wasn't happy with  our behavior, too many of the students in room 3 were not listening to his instructions. When everyone started listening, Mr Flaminio got us to get into groups. When we were in groups we had to stand in a line from tallest to shortest.

In our groups we had to go to exercise stations. In the first station we had to roll onto our back, get up and hop side to side. The second station had a plank. We had to walk on the plank, it was fun. When we swapped stations we got muddled up in our groups, we were bumping into each other. Bumping into each other hurt but it was funny.

When we finished all the stations we were tired. Before we left we thanked Mr Flaminio for teaching us new skills. I like Gymnastics because it helps keep me fit.

How does Grass become Milk?

1. Each Cow eats about 70 kilograms of Grass.


2. The Grass gets digested (broken down) in the first two stomachs.


3. Then the Grass is squashed into a Ball  Cud.


4. The Cud is burped back into the mouth chewed for about a minute.


5. Then the Grass goes into the next 2 stomachs.


6. It then enters the bloodstream and is turned into Nutrients.


7. Then it enter the Udders as Milk.

Saint Pius Feast Day

                              

It was a mild sunny day. Today was St Pius Feast day.

First we had lined up outside the classes and had said our school prayer.

When we had finished we all put our hands together for Church. Then we started to walk to our school Church.

To start off with we listened to what Father had to say. Next we had some readings from the bible. Following this, we sang some songs that was very comforting to some people who love those kind of songs.

At the final point the Mass was just about to finish.

Finally we did the bread and wine. Some people did not take the bread and wine and some people did.

The best thing I liked about Mass was that we all got together.

Swimming

Did you know I love swimming? I go swimming three times a week. My mum and sister always go with me. We go to Glen Innes Aqua Centre in New Zealand.

Most days I learn and play but my sister just comes to learn how to swim. The she shows our mum the tricks that she learnt in her special swimming class, that she has been going to for two months. It would be better if we could be in the same class but she is in the development and I am in swimmers class.

My mum does not even go swimming. She just goes to the spa and doesn't worry about anything, only about the lovely hot water.

My mum, my sister and I always go on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. We start swimming classes at 4:35pm and it ends at 5:00pm.

When we go we take our togs, goggles and our caps to keep our hair dry and our fringes out of our face. We also can concentrate better on our swimming lessons.

When we go I feel really sad when we go because all the fun has to end when we leave.
