The Forest Friends

Cole and Daryl were best friends. They loved to go to the forest that was only a three minute walk away. On sunny days, they hated being inside the hot, hot house.

One great autumn afternoon, Cole and Daryl decided  that they would go into the forest to explore.a Rosella and a dove were resting on a tree branch when they got there. They wanted to see what they were going to do.
 Instead of staying on the path they were in an unrecognisable place. Owls cooing filled the air with echoes then they herd a totally different sound fill the air. It was a happy hopping bunny family and then Cole and Daryl started to follow them. At first they thought the bunnies were leading them in circles, but then they saw the tree where the kite got stuck.
They yelled out, "Mum, Dad"hopefully  then they heard,'' yes,yes where are you ''
There mum had come looking while dad was still snoring his head off.

''we're over where our kite got stuck'' called the boys.

Magic Show


We were all on the floor of our hall watching the first magic show of the day. The magician's name was Jonathan Usher.

We all sighed, "Oh, wow!'' as Jonathan crushed the can, then the can re-opened and it poured out the drink again. 
The most exciting trick was when Jonathon got a piece of rope and took the ends off, and he was left with a circle piece rope, then he put the ends back on and it was back to normal.
Jonathan's tricks were so clever, we laughed in class.

Next, it was the second magic show of the day. It was familiar. It was  the El Gregoe show and it came with a message. It was to have a bully-free school combined with magic. We were learning as well as laughing at the same time. It was interesting and funny at the same time. 

The coolest and dangerous trick was when  Sue, El Gregoe's assistant, performed the floating man trick. We all gasped in excitement.

Pentecost

The Church is people spreading the Good News about Jesus.
Before Pentecost, the followers of Jesus locked themselves in a room because they were scared that they would get killed like Jesus. 
All of a sudden, the Holy Spirit appeared in the form of fire and wind. The Holy Spirit gave them courage. They were now brave enough to go out and begin spreading the Good News. This day was called Pentecost. It was the birth of the Church.

Home

In the holidays, my mum and I went to the movies.
When we got there, it was 6 o'clock. We had to buy our tickets. It was so hard, because there were so many movies to choose from, but we knew not to pick 'The Hunt for the Wilder people' without Dad.
We finally came to a decision and got tickets to see the movie, 'Home.' As we stepped into the theatre, it was as black as the sky at midnight, without the stars in the sky and we saw these comfy soft chairs. 
As we sat down, it was very peaceful. The main character was a little purple alien called Oh and sometimes during the movie, Oh had makeup on which made Mum laugh.
It was really fun to watch the movie with my mum. My mum is the best in the world. I would have no other mum but her.
