Duatholon

On the 30th of March we had a Duatholon. We could bring our scooter or bike to ride around the court. I ran the whole way. Next week we have cross country and I am going to jog at the start. Unlike what I did on Thursday I had to run around the court and field twice before I could finish. I came 5th. But out of all the people who were running the whole thing I came first. There where no pictures of me so take look of some of my friends.

• The opening statement is followed by sentences that describe the event; what you saw, what you did, how you felt, what you learnt.
• Each paragraph focuses on a different aspect of the topic; travelling, the beach, the lagoon walk, playground.
• A general statement about the topic usually rounds off the report.

Last week on Friday Ako Ngatahi went to Spencer Park, we went for a long walk we split into groups I was group 1e. There was about 150 people who went, we had an adventure on Friday, we went to the beach and we played on the playground.

I went to the lagoon walk first we saw all different birds there was a Tui. We stopped and had snack  there were horses there was a brown and white horse. We went up in the bird house I could see lots of birds and there were little huts in the lagoon.

Then my group went to the playground and South Hornby School. Was there and I saw some people who were in my netball team last year I went down the blue slide, and I went on the flying fox and climbed the red tower, it was so hot.

On the beach it was even hotter then the play ground the sand felt like fire we collect items I collected shells and some drift wood but we made a sand castle and I put all my items on it and then I left them.

Finally we went back to the playground and had lunch it was YUM! Then we had some fruit and we played and played and played until it was time to go. I went in Nature’s car with Lasa and Aisa and we listened to some music, then we got back to school. I was so tired.

The Present

The Present

It was the weekend which means my mum would go on a shopping spree, she was wearing a white T-shirt and some jeans she looked very lovely. She went out when she was gone all I did was

play video games on my xbox 360 at home. Then my Mum came home she had a box I thought to myself “Could it be a xbox one for me?” She opened the blinds, it was so bright.

“Mum, shut the blinds it hurts my eyes and I am trying to play my game”.

Then the box moved and a puppy jumped out. It was cute, he was blonde. But there was one thing that let me down he only had three legs. He wanted to play with me but I rejected him. “I can’t believe mum brought me a puppy with one leg missing just because I have one leg missing too”. I went back to playing my Xbox.

Wait, look at him, he is so cute. No, remember he only has three legs. Wait, look at him being silly and being clumsy, he keeps falling over his three legs and we do have something in common we both have a leg missing

“I accept you because I am like you too we are going to be great friends” I said. I hope I will be a great owner and we can stay best friends forever,

so he grabbed a red ball and I got my crutches and we played outside. I said “I will call you Mischief, my twin”.
