This year will be really cool for me! The exciting and awesome things that will be happening this year are: I get a new teacher, a new art teacher, I will be in year 7, I will get a year 7 t-shirt and jumper with my name on it and it will  my last year of primary school! I can’t wait!

It is the end of the school year for us at Hawthorndene Primary School. We end school at 2:30 on the 16th of December. We often leave school at 3:15 but because it is the last day of the term we leave 2:30. So after Friday we have 1 week until Christmas. YEAH!

In class we are doing projects on “Is water more precious than gold?” and one of our tasks we can do is write a poem. I made a poem about water being more precious than gold. Do you think water is more precious than gold or do you think against it?
I hope you enjoy my poem.

Is Water More Precious Than Gold?

Gold is expensively sold,
But what is more precious than gold,
Water is, it gives all creatures life,
But without it we would all be in strife.

Without water there would be no plants,
And there would be no animals doing chants,
Without either of these alive,
We wouldn’t be able to survive.

Answer the question and be bold,
What is more precious than gold,
Correct water is, now give me a high-five,
Because water keeps us alive.

The past couple of weeks we have been talking about heroes and what makes them a hero. After that we had to choose a hero and write a report card about them and do a speach that is 2-3 minutes long. I choose John Flynn. He helped people in the outback that had n0 doctor close by. So he invented the Royal Flying Doctors Service. Examples of other heroes people did: Dian Fossy, Raoul Wallenberg, Nelson Mandala.

Who’s your hero?

How COLD has it been????? It’s FREEZING! I don’t really like winter. Why? Because it’s so COLD! But the thing I do like about winter is that you can stand by an indoor fire and keep warm.

I prefer Spring or Autumn because it’s not too hot or too cold.

What season is your favourite?

This term (term 2) we have the year 6/7 plays. It’s were all the year 6/7 classes in the school perform a play. I’m in Pam’s class and were performing a play called Cinders which is like Cinderella but it has a twist to it. I am also performing in Mr. Mac’s play because they did not have enough people in there class. In Mr. Mac’s play I’m Lady Muck (a lady in waiting) and in Pam’s play I’m Shifters assistance ( a person that brings on weird things e.g. a beanstalk,

dwarfs ect.).

This week we had to do a 100 word challenge. In our story we had to include ….

Everyone clapped and cheered apart from ….

My stories about Lizzy the Ladybug that goes to a bug jumping comp.

Here’s my story. I hope you enjoy it.

One summer day Lizzy the lady bug was eating a leaf. Then suddenly Gray the grasshopper jumped out and landed right in front of Lizzy. Gray was the bug bully. Then Gray said something “I’m going against Criky the cricket in a jumping comp, tomorrow.You better be there.” “Ok.” So the next day Lizzy went to see Gray in the jumping comp. Gray and Criky started jumping, and everyone clapped and cheered apart from Lizzy because she thought it was boring. In the end Gray won. After the comp Lizzy went home after a boring day to eat her leaf.

I love holidays. For me holidays are … going to the beach, jumping in the pool, relaxing, camping, catching up with friends, having sleep overs and I could put lots and lots more things in there but I’m not going to. In the holidays I often go down to a shack at Carrickalinga that my family has and we often stay down there in the holidays for about a week.

Is there something you do often in the holidays?

On the 11th of March 2011 the Japanese Tsunami hit. An earthquake struck in the sea then this terrifying tsunami hit the shores of Japan and went in land. To give you an idea of how strong the wave was, is impossible but I have got one. Japan had a wall to stop tsunami’s but this great wave were so strong it broke through that. I have seen pictures in the papers and that still gives me the shivers each time I see them.
I have made three different poems about the Japanese Tsunami.

Hope you enjoy them.
