Summer

Summer is laughter and scraped knees.

Summer is kicking balls into goals.

Summer is turning on the nice, cool ventilation.

Summer looks like yellow and red flags flailing on the beach.

Summer looks like people cramming items into their car.

Summer feels like sunscreen sloshing around on your skin.

Summer feels like cold, refreshing water splashing over your face.

Summer sounds like seagulls squawking from up above.

Summer sounds like joyful laughter oscillating from everyone.

Summer tastes like huge, juicy strawberries.

Summer tastes like cold ice-cream freezing my brain.

Summer smells like stifling air surrounding every tree and living thing.

Summer smells like flowers blooming in the sunlight.

Summer is the sun frying your brain.

Summer is happiness.

Summer is eating red juicy strawberries.

Summer looks like red pohutukawa trees blooming.

Summer looks like waves crashing past the sand.

Summer feels like burning sand warming up my cold feet.

Summer feels like sweat dripping down my neck.

Summer smells like roasting hot steak cooking on the BBQ.

Summer smells like salty sea air in a summer.

Summer tastes like sweet cold smoothies.

Summer tastes like freezing ice cream dripping down my shirt.

Summer sounds like birds birds chirping in the trees.

Summer sounds like seagulls squawking at the beach.

Summer is the time to have fun with families and friends.

A Day I'll Never Forget Stories

 A Day I'll Never Forget Stories

A Day I’ll Never Forget!

I was so scared to go up the sky tower. My Nana and I were in the elevator waiting to go up I felt like Willy Wonka going up and up.

Finally we got to the top of the sky tower. First we got a milkshake each, I had a chocolate milkshake and my Nana had a strawberry milkshake, the milkshakes were good!  

Next my Nana and I went to the viewing area. I was scared like there was no glass but I was fine I was just  little scared by the way the view is beautiful so nice!

After that my Nana and I went down the elevator to the shops. At the shops we brought apples, pineapples and grapes. Finally my Nana and I left the sky tower. I was sad to leave!

The Day I’ll Never Forget

One day me and my mum flew back to China. I was 18 months old when I flew back. I always cried whenever the people who served the food came.

When we landed in the airport, my Grandpa and Grandma came to pick us up, I thought my Grandparents were kidnappers because I thought my Grandparents were trying to stuff me in the van, I started crying because my mum left me but it turned out she just went to return the trolley back to the airport.

After when my mum came back from the airport we headed to my Grandparents house but I was still sad until I saw an amusement park. So we parked our car and I glanced right through the front entrance. I was super happy when I rode all the rides. Then by the time we got to the house it was four-storeys high!(including the roof).

Afterwards we drove to the cake shop to buy a small Durian cake to eat because it was my first time eating cake.Then we went shopping and I got a huge new Lego set also we shopped for fancy new clothes.

A Day I’ll Never Forget

A long time ago I was going to a birthday party and while I was getting ready, I saw a  car pull up in our driveway.

“Look, it’s Levi,  Caysen and Aunty Mel.”

I was all ready and so Mum said “You can go play them until we have to go.” So I went and played with them on the driveway, riding back and forth on our scooters and bikes. For our fourth time riding on our driveway. “Ready set go!” We all said. Levi went, then me Pippa and then Caysen. Suddenly CRASH! BANG! “Arrr!”  I screamed, flipping as I  went over my handels bars.  My Mum and Aunty Mel came running out of the house. My Mum picked me up and took me inside, then cleaned me. She put me up on the couch because I had grazed knees and blood dripping was down my arms. Then my Nanny came over and she told me to do some things, but I  can't do them so she said “It looks like your wrists broken.” So my mum drove me to the hospital and the lady took an x-ray of my arm. She said “It looks like it’s is broken” I was told to go to the cast room where they put a white cast on my wrist and I had to have a cast on for six weeks! It was certainly painful.That is a day I will never forget.

Geckos

Geckos on the wall.

We were learning to blend colors using pastels. We decided whether to use hot or cold colors for the back ground for our lizard.

We also had to think carefully about space and design.
