Fun Day

When the day came to go to the Waikanae pools it was pouring. Instead we had a fun day.

We could choose out of Miss Ward's class or Miss Nuttridge's class and Miss Fothergill's.

Here are some things we could do in the classes: painting; landscape cards; stop animation; computers or choosing.

Then we watched Hotel for Dogs. Some people watched Scooby Doo and Monsters Inc.

It was a fun day.

Fun Day In

Yesterday we were going to the pools then it got cancelled. I was quite annoyed. Then we had a fun day in. 


We got split up. I chose Room 10 and Luke came too. We did craft. I didn’t finsh mine neither did Luke and we both went back later in the day. We played on the computers in Room 9, then went back to Room 10 to watch Miss Nuttridge feed the axolotls. 


Then we watched Hotel for dogs at the end of the day.

Fun Day!

On 23 of March, Tuesday, I could not go to sleep because the next day we were going to the
Waikanae Pools. Finally I fell asleep.

6.30 am Wednesday morning. It was raining. There was not a chance we were going to the pools. After a long morning we arrived at school. Dad dropped me off in the corridoor and then I raced down the hall way (do not try this at your school). I avoided teachers, kids and parents.

Then came the bad news. In front of the class was a sign. It said - well I forgot what it said but I remember the most tragic bits - "...has been postponed to term 4!" Term 4 was such a long way away. To my friends I kept saying "TERM 4!"

Then the bell rang. But it was fun day. The classes I went to were art, craft and technology. At craft they had a wierd fish things called axolotls. I watched them being fed.

What a cool day!
