Ice-Skating

When I woke up it was light. I whispered "Madi" she was silent. So I called out louder "Madi" I jumped down my ladder and woke her up. "Madi we're going skating today remember?" We ran to my dad's and my stepmums room. We knocked on the door. Kerri said" come in". So we opened the door and BAM up jumps Floyd my puppy. "Down Floyd" I said. We went in and sat down on the couch and talked and talked and talked. They got ready and we did as well.Then we jumped in the car and drove to Paradice Ice skating. " Are we there yet?" I asked jumping up and down in my seat. It was Madi's and mine 9th birthdays. Finally we arrived. "YAY" I screamed..." But is it open?" My step mum asked. Dad went to check. He came back and said "yep Its open." So we all hopped out of the car and went to get our skates to hire. We found a seat and we put our skates on. It was slippery. later on I got the hang of it. I spun around and around. It was FUN! A while later the Ice got cleaned. After that there was a boys race and a girls race. I did not enter. The boys won STINK! I got back on the ice. I fell over but it did not hurt. We stayed there for a while longer then daddys friend Richard came ice-skating. I taught him how to ice-skate. He fell over and it was funny. It was FUN! I want to do that again. by FW. c: c:

Kelly Sports

We had a great morning playing different sports with the people from Kelly Sports. We did some Rugby skills, some soccer skills, and some games. The games we played was a target game where we had to roll tennis balls into a hoop. It looked easy at first but it was harder than we thought. We also had to pay a catch game with nets. Our partner had to throw tennis balls and then we had to catch it with the nets. It was heaps of fun.

Going to Graces party

''HAPPY BIRTHDAY '' yelled Madison, Emma, Alison, Charlotte, Catherine and I. "Hi!" screamed Grace. Lets go slide on the stairs with our sleeping bags. . We where full of beans, well more like screaming beans. ''Lunch time every one '' yelled Bronnie. We bowled up stairs to eat our lunch. "Can we go bowling now please?" "ok." "Time to bowl." "yay" We had heaps of turns at bowling. Crash went the pins. Finally we got to the end. It was time to go play on the game machines but before that I needed to get our tickets. After we played on the games we went back to Graces house. While we were at Graces house we played some more and watched a movie called "Baribe and the fashion fairies" Then we had dinner and watched the rest of the movie . Then we went to bed. We had a pillow fight and a farting contest. Then we fell asleep. Catherine's alarm went of it was like the middle of the night. Then we fell back asleep. When we woke up I was on top of Emma "Get off my face! Your like an elephant on my face." Then we woke up and had another pillow fight. We had breakfast and played Rapunsal then we got picked up and went.

Linda Strachan

On Wednesday 16 February we had a very special guest come and talk to us about her books. Yes, it was an author. Linda is from Scotland and she has written lots of books. Linda writes a lot of stories about a character called Hamish McHaggis. Hamish always wear a hat so nobody knows if Hamish has any ears. Linda talked about some of her books and she even read 2 of her books to us.
One was called "What colour is love?" We found out that the colour of love is EVERY single colour. The other book that we read was called "Hamish McHaggis and the Lost Prince" Hamish's friend Rupert (who was a Hedgehog) thought the Prince was a real prince but the prince in this story was a deer prince.
In all of the Hamish McHaggis stories there is a little creature that is on the front cover of the story. You have to find this creature on each page of the book.
We learnt some words from Scotland.
A bosie is a hug or a cuddle.
Coorie Doon means to snuggle.
At the end of Linda's talk some of the Room 12 children got up and said "Thank you Linda for coming and sharing your writing with us!"
We all enjoyed listening to Linda.
