Badminton

On a rainy day Room 5 had Badminton. First we had to get our gear ready. We met a guy named Robbie. He told everyone “Good afternoon I am Robbie” Mr Gaffney told us to say “Good afternoon” so we did. We use shuttlecocks and rackets. He told everyone to go in one line to get a racket and shuttlecock. I was last because I told the people at the back to go in front of me. Then he told everyone to space out because someone might get hit with the rackets. We were using back hand grip. Mr Gaffney told me “stretch your arm so it will be much easier.” So I tried it and it worked. He said “You are doing well keep it up.” I hit him with the racket and I said “So sorry”. Robbie called us to “come and sit down.” He told us to partner up. I went with Pio because nobody picked him.

He was first to serve. It was so funny because when Pio served he missed it. Then it was my turn and I did a perfect one because it flew in to the air and hit his head. We were laughing like there was no tomorrow.

When our lesson was finished Robbie said “We are going to use nets.” Then we had to go in two lines so we can eat our yummy lunch.”

Fredrick's Birthday

After school we went home and had a little rest until the birthday had started because the birthday boy was gone. While he was gone the kids were blowing up the balloons and decorating the house.A while later the birthday boy was here. He brought lollies home and started to play with them. My mum wrapped a present for Fredrick. It was Nike shoes but my mum said “Don’t tell him!” I replied “OK!” She told me to go and guard the house and if he comes then tell him to go inside. “Okay” I said. A while later……… He came! And I had to go and distract him and say “Go inside and play with Peti and Kalo.” So he went off.
 Finally we sang the birthday song while Ella brings the cake and my mum got the present. After that we had dinner. They were serving us Chicken, salad and sausages. Next we had our yummy desert which was Ice-cream and the yummy cake.
 A while later we played with the balloons. Jelsma chucked a pink balloon on my face. I said “Ha ha very funny I will get you back very soon.” I quickly chucked a blue balloon on his face. Fredrick was busy watching his favourite singer MattyB. It was the best birthday of my life.

My Wonderful Holiday

On a wonderful night we went to the movies. We invited my brothers friend Jelsma. But first we had to go to Pak'n'Save to get our lollies and drinks so we do not have to get it from Hoyts Sylivia Park movie theatre. We were about to watch Despicable Me 2 but it was full so we had to watch Man of Steel. The bad guy killed the father but he did not tell the son of the other father.

When it had finished we thought that we were locked up so the man told us to push the button. My brother and I went where the stairs were and Jelsma and my mum went on the other stairs.

My mum asked if we were hungry and they said "yes!" with excitement. So we went to McDonalds but the one in G.I was closed so we went to the one near us. It was funny because Viliami farted while we were eating. We all started to laugh.

We dropped Jelsma off at his house so that he could wake up early and go to church. It was a fun day!

Swimming Day

On a lovely hot day Room 5 had swimming. I was so excited because it was our first time swimming for the week! We met a kind lady called Gillian. She is a lovely lady.

The first thing we had to do was change into our swimming gear. Mostly the girls wore togs and the boys wore shorts and no shirt or t-shirts.

The first lesson she taught us was to float. I had to be last because at that time I did not know how to swim or float.

Gillian said "Ok, now can you please be like a starfish? I will hold you and I wont let go!" I said "Ok." She was holding me less so I could learn how to float. After a while we had free time, I was very busy learning how to swim. That was fun. I am looking forward to swimming again.
