The Big Bang.

It was a stormy cold night.   There was a big bang that came from the living room downstairs.   I got out of bed and crept down the stairs slowly to see what was making the noise.   BANG it went again it came from the kitchen this time. I crept slowly towards the kitchen.

My feet felt so cold walking on the cold hard wooden floor walking towards the mysterious noise.  I felt my heart beat going faster and faster, as I got closer and closer to the mysterious noise.   I was scared because I didn’t know what I was going to find.  The lightning struck I saw a shadow next to the window, I was so scared.

It was so dark so I slowly walked to the light, shaking inside. Scared for what I was going to see.  All of a sudden I hit the light switch and what did I find........ A possum sitting there staring at me. He had jumped through the window trying to get some food and that was what made the big BANG sound.  I grabbed a stick because I didn’t know what to do so I threw the stick at the possum and it ran back out the window.
I felt relieved that I had found out what the noise was and had got rid of it. I went back to bed and had a good night sleep.

My First Basketball Experience.

It was a Tuesday morning and Room 7 went out to play and learn new skills about basketball. As we lined up outside our classroom waiting for Mrs Tui to instruct us to go to the court. As we walked to the center of the courts, we met a man named Coach Bruce.

Coach Bruce asked us to line up on the yellow line and Mrs Tui sorted us into our teams,there were five groups.Bruce  handed out a basket ball to each team,we had to dribble the ball around the cone and back and pass it to the other person that was next in line. Bounce bounce bounce as we dribbled the ball back and forth,next we played a game. We had to run to the center of the court and run across the base line and run towards the hoop and shoot it.It was a fun game.

Soon it was time, Coach Bruce blew the whistle he told us all to come sit down,It was time for us to leave so room 6 can have their turn. I can’t wait until the next time we have kiwi sports as I thought when I walked back to class.

RETREAT

29th of March was the day that the year 8 went to retreat. It was time for us to leave. As we drove up the driveway of St Francis retreat centre we were amazed how big the place was,Brother Phillip awaited us as we drove up.

We all got out of the car we went in and brother Phillip told us the instruction and rules,Then we went in to the waiting room and waited for him. He then instructed us to enter the chapel and he handed us a notebook for writing a prayer or talking to god,we also had a quiet time and time to think. Next we had to go and put our bags into our room.
Later we went in to the meeting room and played a game.
After that we went outside and invented our own little ark but me Siu and Sione koula teamed up and we built an ark 3 time bigger than the normal one. we worked very hard on it, then we went to the back of the building and placed our arks in the pond filled with goldfish. We all got a rock that represented a animal, Our’s floated like Zeph’s and Lavinia’s. Soon it was time for the Year 8 students to go into the chapel and write in our notebook. also we all got a chance to light a candle,it was a special time.soon it was time to go to sleep.

The next day was a bit boring because we had to return back to school.
