Mission Day

On Friday we had Mission Day at St Patrick's school.  We had Mission Day at School to help raise money for an Orphanage School in India.  An orphanage is a place that looks after children who do not have parents.  

First we went to church and then we went back to school where Father Matthew blessed our new learning area.  After playtime there were activities and things to buy.  I bought a necklace and a bracelet from Phillamena's box.  They were white and they sparkled.  I also bought a drink.  In Room 8 I had my face painted.  I got a black and yellow butterfly painted on my face and I looked pretty.  After that I got an ice block and some lollies.  My ice block was red, green and orange.  It's called a traffic light ice block and it tasted delicious.  

At lunchtime I ate a sausage sizzle and then later we watched a movie with Sister Evalesi and Miss Craig.  Before we went home we did the raffle draw.  I did not win the prize but I had a good day.

Butterfly Creek

In the holidays I went to Butterfly Creek with my family.  My auntie had said for sometime that she would take me there.  At Butterfly Creek we saw some animals and insects.  I saw a crocodile, some spiders, monkeys and a big elephant with a baby elephant.  The man fed the crocodile and there were lots of people looking at the crocodile.  

Next I went to the butterfly enclosure.  Inside there were all sorts of different coloured butterflies.  One butterfly sat on my head.  It was black and yellow.  It felt soft.  I love Butterfly Creek and I wish that I could stay at Butterfly Creek forever.  

My Favourite Pet Fantasy

One day my friend, Lea, bought me a puppy.  It was a girl puppy. I named my puppy Lana.  She is black and white, and she is small. Lana is my friend and she lives at my house.  I have given her my poppy and she sleeps on my bed.   Lana and I play on my laptop together.  She eats healthy dog biscuits and meat, and she needs water to drink.  I love my puppy.  

Singing Practice

This morning Mrs Dines from Room 8 came to find me.  She said, "Go and ask Miss Craig if you can come with me to Room 8 to practice our song".  Miss Craig said, "Yes, and listen carefully to Mrs Dines".  

When I got to Room 8 there were other students from different classes.  There was Mika from Room 2, a boy from Room 5L, Oliver and a girl with beautiful black hair from Room 7, and Launoa, Rosary, and Philemena from Room 8.  

We sang and practiced moving the globe together and we turned around.  Mrs Dines said, Good job everybody!"  When we had finished practicing we went back to our classes.  

Going To The Warehouse

On the weekend I went to the Warehouse with my Mum and my Dad.  We went in our car to the Sylvia Park Warehouse.  At the Warehouse my Mum and Dad bought me an laptop.  My laptop can do the same things that my iPad can do at school.

When I got home I went onto Reading Eggs and read some books and I played some learning games.  On Reading Eggs I read the book called, "I Like My Puppies" and the book called, "Orange".  I like reading these books.  My Nana said, "Great Desiree and now you can go onto the learning games"!  After that I went onto Xtramaths and I practiced my Maths.   I really like working on my new laptop.  Thanks Mum and Dad for my laptop!

My Sister's Birthday

On the weekend my little sister Madelyn turned one year old.  She likes banana cake, so my mum bought her a strawberry flavoured banana cake.  We all had a piece of the cake.  We tasted the strawberry and the cream on the cake.  We sang Happy Birthday to Madelyn.  I gave Madelyn a present for her birthday.  I gave her a big pink bike.  After that we went to The Warehouse.  We bought a black and red barbeque.  We had a great day.

In the Holiday

In the holidays I went to the ice skating and then to Rainbows End with my big mum and dad, and my cousins Azzaaliyah and Maiya. I like going ice skating because I am good at ice skating.  

First when we got to the ice skating place we put on the special boots that help us to glide on the ice.  Next I skated with my cousins while my mum and dad watched us.  Then we had dinner.  I had hot Milo, a biscuit, chippies and a sandwich.  They all tasted good.
After that we went to Rainbows End.  At Rainbows End we played ball inside and we also went on a slide. I went down fast on the slide. I had fun.  

On The Weekend

On the weekend I went to the swimming pools with my mum, my big brother and my little sister.  My big brother's name is Cyros and my little sister's name is Madeline. 

At the pools I swam with my brother and my little sister.  The water was nice and warm.  After I had finished swimming I had a shower and got into my clothes.

Next we went to the park.  At the park we played on the slide and ran around.  I played with Bryson (my toy cow) and Tyrose, and with my little sister and my big brother.  Tyrose is my mum.  I had a fun time.

Going to School on the Weekend

On the weekend I went to school with Johanna, Frances and Jamie.  My mum came with us.  We played tag.  I had fun.

Whanau

On Monday I went to the pools with my mum and dad.  After that we went home and then we went to the park.  I took my toy cow with me.  Her name is Bryson.  I also went to school.
