Christmas 2012


“Merry Christmas”, I said to my family. Christmas is the day we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. Most people all around the world celebrate Christmas by having a family get together, and also by handing out presents to the younger ones. Christmas day is the best day of the year for me!


         As the day passed and everyone arrived at Mt Roskill (my grandparents house), the food was blessed and the day started. As my mouth watered, “Mmm, look at all this delicious food”  mumbled out of it. After I had finished serving my plate of scrumptious food I went to sit down and demolish it all.

         When it was time to open the presents all the little kids ran to the sitting room with excitement. Every kid had received at least one present or more. I was very happy with what I got.

         At the end of the day I had enjoyed spending my time celebrating Christmas with my family and all my cousins!

Netbook Reflection 2012

I have enjoyed having a Netbook. It helps me to teach myself in some ways like, not waiting for Mr Barks to tell me what to do. I can do what even I want, as long as it is work related.

I liked having my Netbook the very first time I got it, so I can’t imagine what it will be like without it. Working old fashion (Paper & Pencil) will be a nightmare for me because it takes me forever to write an acceptable piece of writing.

If I had the chance to make some changes on my Netbook I would only make the Internet work faster, and that’s it. My Netbook is awesome I will not change a thing. Beside the internet.

Sometimes having a Netbook can be annoying because if you take it home, you must remember to bring it back to school. But most of the time its cool having a Netbook. I LOVE MY NETBOOK!!!

Telecom Lighting the Christmas Tree Event



Kingston & Darius are going to a Lighting the Christmas Tree event ran by Telecom. Kingston and Darius are both twelve years old.

The two of them, and some others kids from Pt England went to Telecom in Town. When they arrived there, these two ladies From Telecom named Courtney and Karyn guided them to Victoria Park. That is where the event was going to take place.

As the night passed by Kingston began to feel hungry. He was starving because he didn't take any food to eat. He wasn't the only one that was hungry, His friend Darius was also hungry. They wondered how they were going to solve the problem.  
“Ok guys here are some bags of food for everyone to eat” The Two ladies from Telecom said.
Kingston and Darius were happy to hear the news from the two ladies. As soon as the two hungry boys received their bag of food they demolished all the food inside it, and sat for a while to rest their stomachs.

The Host said “ On three I want everyone to shout a big HO,HO,HO.” Everyone did but it was not loud enough so the tree only lit to half way then went back down again. The Host said “ come guys that wasn’t loud enough, so again he said on three shout a big HO,HO,HO.” Everyone did and the tree lit up to the top and it look so cool.

As the night came to an end everyone from Pt England had enjoyed their time and was ready to go back to school and get picked up. Kingston  had the time of his life and it was a night that he will never forget!

NARRATIVE WRITING

Kingston was so happy that it was Sports Day. Kingston Is a 12 year old boy who is not Athletic but he still enjoys his School Athletics Day. “ Oh man I cannot wait until  Athletics start.” Kingston said


“ OK, first the  12 year old boys will be going to  the 75 & 100 metre sprints along the side of the far end of the field.”  as Mr Jacobson said “Take your marks, get set, go!” I was thinking of how fast all the other competitors were . As soon as the 12 year old boys came to their last activity until lunchtime Kingston remembered something. It created a big Problem.

"Oh no I ate all my lunch at morning tea, so I am going to have to starve for the hole of lunchtime."As Kingston sat on the grass just waiting for the lunchtime bell to ring he heard a voice behind him. He had no idea who the mysterious person was, so he slowly turned around and guess who it was..... It was his Dad.

"Hey Kingston, do you have any lunch?" His dad asked. "No But can you please go and buy me some." Kingston replied. Kingston was so happy that his dad bought him some lunch, because he was terrified to experience being hungry for the hole lunchtime."Thanks dad." Kingston said as his dad left to go home.

Kingston had fun at his school Athletics and  enjoyed his lunch from his dad. Even though he is not an athletic person he did well in most of his activities.

Catch Of The Day (Kingston & Dillon) Buddy Writing

It was the perfect day to go out for fishing so Rex decided to pick his mates who are brothers, John and Cliff. “Yeeha, are you ready to go fishing boys?” “Yup!!! I sure am replied John.” Cliff said “ I'm not sure because this will be my first experience going fishing”.

“I think I got a big one boys, look at my line it looks like the fish is going to snap it” announced Cliff. “I don't think I can handle it and remember I'm only a beginner.” Cliff got pulled into the deep blue sea with the wild fish. “Don't panic” yelled Rex.

“Just stay in there and we'll send out a life ring to save you”. “ OK, but hurry” replied Cliff. Whoosh!!! and Rex sent out the life ring. The boys grabbed a hold of the rope and Rex counted to three “1 2 3 pull with all your strength. Since there were three boys fishing on the boat it was easier to pull Cliff in with the life ring.

The day was over and the boys were exhausted, so they rushed home and fell in there beds. Cliff had the catch of the day, they had the best breakfast ever.
