Mission Day

On Friday we celebrated Mission Day with our friends and our whanau.  On Mission Day we raised money for the orphans in India.  We are able to wear any clothes to school on Mission Day.  I wore a black dress, black shoes and a black jacket.  

First we went to church.  We sang and people read from the Bible.  Next we went to the new area of our school.  Then we sat down on the floor.  I saw Father Matthew and he blessed our new area. 

After Father Matthew blessed the new area we had a normal morning tea.  During morning tea time we waited for the bell to ring so that we could spend our money.  

I was so happy when the bell rang.  Ellma and I had an idea!  We shared our money so we went to eat popsicles.  Ellma's popsicle was traffic lights, and my popsicle was lemon flavoured.

Then I bought some candy from Sister Evalesi.  I saw my brother, he said, "Go to Room 7", because he wanted me to spend my money in his classroom.  So I did.  There was dancing, but I didn't play that activity.  Next I went outside.  I went to Room 8 because I wanted to have my face painted.  But there were lots of people so I went outside again and bought a drink.  

The bell rang and we went to Room 2 with Miss Craig and watched a movie.  The movie was called The Cat In A Hat.  While we watched the movie we bought and ate some popcorn.  It tasted good.  

After watching the movie we went to the new area to draw the raffles.  Cheska won the two balls and the buzzy bee on the first raffle.  She won everything on that raffle.  Next it was the raffle for Lego.  My friend Matthew wanted the Lego but he didn't get one.  So it was the next raffle and I had my fingers crossed for Ellma to win but it was not Ellma.  It was someone else.    

Then I saw my Mum and I said, "Hi" and she said that it was time to go home.  So I went to my Mum and said, "My favourite activity was the face painting even though I didn't have a chance to get my face painted.  Maybe next year I will get my face painted.  I love Mission Day because there are lots of things to do and to buy that will help the poor orphans India.

Going To The Museum

In the holidays I went to the museum with my family.  We went in our family car.  At the museum I saw a mummy and my mum said that it was real.  It was scary and I tried to wake it up.  Then we went to a house that was pretending to shake as if it was in an earthquake.  Then when the house finished shaking I said, "Well that was short".  Next we went to the shop.  I had a drink of sprite and it was great.  I also had some chips and they were good too.  

Then we went back to our house and we were very tired so I had a sleep. After sleeping I saw a rainbow when I opened the door.  The rainbow had every colour in it and it was cool.   I love the holidays.

Jamie's Birthday Party

During the weekend I went to Burger King with my family.  We went inside Burger King and then I ordered the Bomb Burger and a soda.  Bomb Burger and the soda tasted good.  It was a little bit noisy but we could still talk and hear each other. 

After that we went home and we watched the video Boss Baby on TV.  It was fun and the Boss Baby was funny because he slapped the boy's face and they both drank the milk.  It was the Boss Baby's world and his job.  My brother and I laughed.  I had a fun weekend with my family.

Father's Day

On Father's Day I baked a banana cake for my dad at my house.  I baked it with my brother Alizzandro  and my Mum, Wing.  While my Mum and my brother were baking I made a Father's Day card for my Dad.  

When my Mum looked at my card she said that my card was good and I said, "okay".  When I had finished making my Father's Day card I helped with baking the banana cake.  

First I put all of the ingredients listed in the recipe into the mixing bowl.  Then I mixed the ingredients and my brother helped me.  Next my Mum put the mixture into the cake time and then put it into the oven.  

Later my Dad looked at my card and he said, "I love your card so much Angelina, thank you".  My Dad gave me a hug.  My brother didn't have a Father's Day card but my Dad said that it was okay.  

Finally the banana cake was ready and my Mum took it out of the oven.  The cake was hot and it smelt of banana.  My Dad ate some of the cake and he said that it was delicious, and then we all ate some too.  It was the best Father's Day ever.  My Dad said, "I had the best day ever!"

Phillipines Buwan ng wika Celebration

On the weekend I went to the Philippines celebration of Buwan ng wika.  We celebrated our language.  I went with my Mum and Dad. My two brothers stayed at home and did other things.  I saw Jamie, Frances and Johanna.  We played tag and pop the balloon with our Mum or Dad.  After playing we watched a story and it was about a green turtle and a brown monkey.  The turtle was good but the monkey was bad.  Then we got a vegetarian pizza.  I said, "Yum!". Then Jamie, Frances, Johanna and I draw the naughty monkey and the green turtle.  The my Mum said that it was time to go home.  I said, "Yes Mum".  I loved my weekend.

Visiting My Family In The Country

On the weekend I went to my cousin's house.  My cousins' house is big.  I went with my Mum, my Dad and my brother.  My brothers ' names are Alizzandor and Paulo.  Alizzandor is ten years old, so he is older than me.  Paulo is fourteen years old, so he is older than me too.  We went to visit my cousins house because they invited us to see their new house.  Their house is far away and we had a long ride in our little car.  We took a long time to get to their house.  

When we got to their house it was already night time so we ate dinner.  We were all very hungry after our long drive.  After dinner we played games which required us to guess the character, and my brother won.  Then we went to bed. We were all very tired.

The next morning we had breakfast with my cousins, aunt and uncle.  After breakfast we went to see the cows.  There were 400 cows and they were in paddocks with big gates.  I said, 'Hi', out loud to the cows as they walked along the path and they stared at me.  My Dad said for me to keep walking because I was distracting the cows and they were going to eat some grass.

Later we said goodbye to my cousins, my aunt and uncle, and I said goodbye to the cows.  The cows continued to eat the grass.  I liked visiting my family in the country and I hope that we can visit them again soon!

In The Holidays

In the holidays I went to the Panmure Swimming Pools with my brother and my mum.  Before we went there we changed into my swimming togs and we wore our clothes over the top.

When we got to the pools we went to the inside pool.  My brother wanted us to have a race but we needed to hold hands.  This means that we could only paddle with one hand. It is like we were one person.  My brother won the race.  

After we had swum for a while my mum called us to tell that it was time to go home.  So my brother and I went and had a shower.  I went first and then my brother.  After we had had a shower we changed into our clothes.  Then we went home.  I like going to the Panmure Swimming Pools.  I went there Thursday and Friday.

Friday Playtime

At playtime I watched Faith playing basketball.  I was with my friends Ellma and Lupe.  We cheered for the girls team.  We called out their names and we clapped and cheered when they scored a goal.  The girls got two shots and we yelled hooray.  The Year 8 girls are very good at basketball and we like watching them!  

Lent

During Lent I am going to be kind to other people.  For example I am going to help my friends and also other people. 
When someone falls down I will help them to get up.  Also when people are mean and having difficulty making the right choices I am going to stand up to them,  talk to them and suggest that they do the right thing. 

Saint Patrick's Day

On Friday it was Saint Patrick's Day so it was our school's feast day.  We had a busy day.  First we went to church.  At church we knelt and prayed to God.  

When church was over we went back to school.  We played because it was morning tea time.  After morning tea we had games and activities.  First I went to Room 5L with my team. Room 5L is also called Room 6.  In Room 5L we made Irish book marks with Mrs Dines.  We coloured them in and decorated them.  

Then we went to the oak tree where Mrs Twomy was.  We played crab walk and spider walk, and we raced each other. Next we went to Room 1 where Miss Craig was.  At Room 1 we made, shaped and coloured aeroplanes for Irish Airways.  After that we went to Room 2 with Sister Evalesi.  At Room 2 we painted and made a rainbows and a bowl of gold.  Then we went to Miss Chao who was outside.  We played 'Steal the Emerald and the Gold".  We needed to steal the gold. 

Next we went to the tree and we all lined up in our teams and ate ice blocks.  It was yum.  After that it was lunchtime and we had lunch.  I ate pizza and then we played. Later it was home time.  At home we played the same games and activities that we had played at school.  It was a terrific day!

The Weekend

On the weekend I played with my brother and my friend Tristan.  We played shark tag and Tristan was in.  Then everyone in our house went outside in the yard and my mum and dad played with us.  Tristan's mum and dad played with us too. I had fun!
