Look! There's A Huhu Beetle

Once upon a time there was a little huhu beetle. He climbed up a big tall pine tree. Up at the very top of the pine tree the little huhu found a hole in the tree trunk and went inside. It was slippery inside the hole. The little huhu slid down, down, down. He couldn't stop sliding. BANG! CRASH! Suddenly he hit the bottom of the tree trunk. He hurt his nono. The little huhu found his way out at the bottom of the trunk and slid home with his sore nono. The little huhu's mum said "You naughty huhu. You could have died." The little huhu decided never again to go climbing up tall pine trees ever again.

Huhu Grub In My Kitchen

Once upon a time there was a huhu grub who could fly. He was flying around outside my house. He then went through the kitchen window and into the cupboard. He saw some chippies. "Yummy." he said. The huhu grub ate five chippies. He flew around the house again to try and find a new home. There was a small hole by the door. He flew through it and escaped outside.

Swimming

Learning to Swim is Important

During my swimming lessons I had make sure to put my ear onto my shoulder so I could breathe every time I did a freestyle stroke. Making sure you kick properly is also important otherwise your arms can get very tired trying to pull your body through the water. I know that learning to swim is important so that if I am at the beach I can swim to save myself. After our lessons we ate at McDonald's. I played with Ata, and went to the $2 shop. I brought a pair of blue glasses. They looked really cool too.

McDonald's McMuffins - yuck or yum??

Yesterday when we went to town with our school for swimming. We all got sick when we stopped at McDonald's. We had breakfast there. I had a bacon and egg McMuffin. It was yuck! Whaea Gina offered me a roll and it had cheese and chicken with plum sauce. That tasted a lot better. Later when we got to the pools, Whaea told us what to do first. We used the flutter boards. We had to put our ears on our arms so that we could make the most of being buoyant on and through the water.
