St Patricks Day

 WHAT IS ST PATRICK'S DAY

Saint Patrick's Day, or the Feast of Saint Patrick… The day commemorates Saint Patrick and the arrival of Christianity in Ireland, and celebrates the heritage and culture of the Irish in general.

Leprechauns are actually one reason you're supposed to wear green on St. Patrick's Day or risk getting pinched! The tradition is tied to folklore that says wearing green makes you invisible to leprechauns, which like to pinch anyone they can see.

Dork Diary 

She lost her diary and now she can’t find it anywhere she has looked for it but it just can’t be seen anywhere she gets people to help find it, but the problem is that it has fallen out of her front pocket of her bag, so she is thinking someone else has picked it up and has got it somewhere else so that she can’t find it and she doesn’t know who has picked it up. By the sounds of it, she thinks she knows who has her book she has searched for it far and low she thinks Mackenzie has it for when she went into the toilet to cry she bumped into her and she said that she will search for her diary far and low. Because Mackenzie knew that her diary was missing, But here this is what Mackenzie said ‘’I’M GOING TO SEARCH THIS ENTIRE SCHOOL UNTIL I FIND YOUR DIARY. AND WHEN I DO YOU WILL BE SORRY.’’ The 3 girls have gone into the boy’s locker room while they are training for football and they went searching for a particular bag and they found it inside the boy’s locker room so they went through it to see if that bag has her diary in it but when one of the girls put her hand in the bag they thought it was in there but it was another book. Finally, I have finished the book and they finally found her diary and guess who had it her little sister took it to school for show and tell and her little sister said that all the kids loved the funny pictures in her diary.

Weekend

Today i am going to be talking about my weekend and the fun things i had done in the weekend hope you enjoy...

In the weekend I stayed at my friends from Friday, and on Sunday💥 Tamara and I and also her dad had gone to timezone, Margaret Mahy park and also we went to mini golf just across the road from the park... But that was just for fun, some of the games like the parts of mini golf was a bit hard to do, but it was alot of fun... After we had been at Margaret Mahy Park, and mini golf we went to this swing area which was also across the road and around the corner.  I also took a couple photos when i had gone to timezone, but once was quite blurry and hard to see, But I didn't take to many photos because I

was trying to have fun and not spend that day on my phone...

Here is a photo i took of me doing the bowling game at timezone, it was fun got strikes like about 7 times in a row and then it went to the pro round with about 100 white things to knock down and the most i knocked down was about 94 on my second shot...

The other games i played was basketball, i had about 5 games of that and the shop person gave me a free game to play, we got to spend about 70 bucks at timezone, it was major fun there with my friend and her dad... I was real grateful to be able to have that opportunity to go to timezone... 

Here's a photo of the Margaret Mahy Park i had went to with my mate, i mostly went on one of the swings but i got sore things on it, because i think its made for kids a little bit younger then me... 

So then once we finished playing around at the big park we then walked across the road to here, Mini Golf and there were 8 levels to play and some got harder and some were sort of easy to do... a couple of them i got 2 hits and then it went in the hole and the most one took about 5 hits till i got it in...

Here's a photo of what it looked like

I hope you enjoyed listening to what i had to say about my weekend, hope yous all have a wonderful day. Keep safe out there and be positive... Kakite

Market Day - Oozy Oobleck

Yesterday in B - E My Group made Oobleck, at the start we had only sold 1 but like after a hour, and a half it started to sell out when the primary school kids started coming to our school... Our Oobleck colour was blue but it was spost to be green but we decided we would make it a different colour... Before market day came we all had to name our groups sort out what we was doing... and also last thing we had to make our product for the day... Here is a couple photos of the amount of kids that had made stuff for this amazing day... For our market we were selling oobleck for 2 dollars but since they weren't selling out we started selling them for 1 dollar or 2 for the price of one just to get money in for our market... Our group dont really know how much we had made to be honest. People in our group were Tennessee, Jessica, Lily and lucky last which was me the CEO...

Yesterday was a super hot day, and after most or everyone had sold out everybody started to feel like they either couldn't be bothered doing anything or some of them wanted to go home... The day was super fall on and a lot of people wanted to get wet because of the heat that occurred yesterday...

I Am Poem

I AM – Abbagale 

First Stanza

I am a funny kind and caring friend

I wonder why people like to bully others or try to act tough

I hear chatter from everyone in the class

I see kids walking around the class

I want to live a happy life and never feel depressed or upset always happy

I am a funny kind and caring friend

Second Stanza

I pretend that i'm happy

I feel the clouds slowly evaporating 

I touch the cute animals across the hall

I worry that i'll never get my trust fully back

I cry thinking of my mum each night

I am a funny kind and caring friend

Third Stanza

I understand (something I know is true)

I say that im the worst person

I dream about my mum coming back alive

I try my best to be good even when times get hard

I hope to be happy for a long time (IDK)

I am a funny kind and caring friend
