My Lenten Backpack

In my Lenten backpack I have packed what I need for the next forty days. I am going to fast from Playing Fortnite. The coins and the hands with the heart cookies are for almsgiving for the poor. The Bible and the Cross stand for prayer and service.

Peter’s Perspective

 

 

 

Dear Diary,

People packing their things not knowing where to go. Trails of footsteps in the mud. People crying while the fire disappears into the distance as we walk.
 

People start to shiver with hope that they would make it to the next day. People praying and crying that other families got out. Little kids started to cover their faces not knowing what to do. I felt very scared. Voices echoing in my thoughts to go back.

I had no choice,I had to sleep on the ground. I feel very safe next to my dad.  When I hugged my dad I felt warm and safe but I was still paralyzed from the echo of the bombs.  

The Haast Eagle

 

Haast eagles lived in New Zealand almost 700 yrs ago. A Haast eagle could live for up to 20 yrs. The Haast Eagles became Extinct in 1445. The Maori used to call it Hokioi or Pouakai. The Haast eagles ate ducks, swans, geese, rails and were one of the largest predators in NZ.

The Rippa Tournament

On Wednesday  28th of August we had a Rippa tournament,before we went My teacher told me to do a quick Karakia. We couldn’t take the bus Because why take the bus when you have legs?When we got there My legs were steaming hot,[seriously take the bus] then we had a little rest then we started training.My teams first game was 10:40.But we were too busy cheering my  cousins school[Panmure Bridge].

 

When our game started we were versing Panmure District. It was kind of hard and not gonna lie, they were good but  we still lost.

 

But it was good that they were good sport.After we lost we went to go watch the yr 5 and 6’s game because our game was at 11:00 when they scored a last try they won their lucky that they won. 

 

The Rippa tournament was very fun. I hope we can do it again.  

My Dragon Ball story

Yamcha  was scared of girls his age because his dad said to him that girls his age are going to grow up and boss you around and scream at you.

 

But he was right because he had a friend named Launch and let me tell you a secret, when Launch sneezes her hair turns blond she is always mad. When she sneezes again her hair goes dark blue but she will be gentle and kind, They’re only friends because Yamcha  has a little thing for her.

 

Then Yamcha started making something. It looked like a knife. Yamcha wanted to kill Goku but Goku stopped thinking of fighting  and started to think of friendship and asked Yamcha to be his friend. Yamcha started crying because he thought that Launch was going to be his only friend. His other friend Puar was getting jealous so they joined Goku’s journey to find the great Dragon Balls.

 

I did this because My teacher Mr Bell read us books about Goku’s journey and we started to make DLO ‘s about the characters and we started to make our own stories in the Dragon Ball world.

I enjoyed this so much I Wish we could do it again.
