Turangi's The Place To Be I Reckon

Sunday afternoon my Mum and I travelled to Turangi with my Aunty, Uncle and little cousin Janie. We arrived at Turangi just before dark and my cousin Justice was waiting at the door. We unpacked our bags and headed inside. The next day we baked a chocolate cake . It was very delicious. On Tuesday we went to a trout place just out of Turangi. There were millions of trout. On Wednesday we played tennis at the tennis court which is by the park near Aunty's house. After arriving back from the trout place we played on the x-box, and that was fun. Thursday was an exciting day because we travelled to Taupo. In Taupo Justice and I went to the movies to see Fast And The Furious 5. It was awesome. I reckon Taupo is a cool place to be. Afterward we travelled to every Hokohoko shop in Taupo. I brought a pink shirt and jeans. In The Warehouse we brought one big bunny easter rabbit and a egg for Janie. On returning to Turangi we stopped at a shop to buy an ice cream. On Saturday we travelled by bus to Turangi Power Station. This station was the second power station to be built in New Zealand. Sunday night mum and I returned to Tahaaroa and spent the rest of the holiday here.

The Magnificent Swimming Pool

There was a beautiful swimming pool that everyone wanted to swim in and dive in. This swimming pool is very deep,but at the other end it is shallow. One day someone was going for a swim and suddenly he slipped over. He was hurtful and he was crying his eyes out. This swimming pool was by a mansion in a huge city. One sunny hot day someone also slipped over, but she slipped on the diving board and did a back flip which was funny. This mansion is a a hotel where anyone can stay as long as they want. The swimming was very magnificent,fun, and awesome. I wish I can go there one day.

Technicraft Days Are Fun

During our Technicraft lesson on Wednesday we were kept very busy. Hemi and I made cord bags, while the other kids made beanies. I reckon making cord bags was pretty easy. Cord bags are used for putting your toiletries in. My last time at Technicraft I broke the needle on the sewing machine which I wasn't meant to do. I wonder if Mrs Melville ever found out! Shush! Don't tell... Sorry Mrs Melville...

It Always Rains When We Want To Play Rugby!

Friday afternoon and Kurt from KCRFU strolls into our school to teach us rugby skills. We're ready to start and so does the rain. Putting the ripper rugby belts on was easy. Our first game was Hunters and Deers. Hunters have to try and rip tags off and Deers try to run away. The second game is Rats and Rabbits. Lining up in straight lines, Kurt calls either Rats or Rabbits. Lucky last game is Ripper Rush which is exciting and enjoyable. Ripper Rush is just like Bull-Rush. I thought the afternoon was awesome and I can't wait to learn more rugby skills next term.
