Fun Day at Cricket by Matthew

On Thursday we went to Parnell to play cricket. I went with the class.
 There were other people to help us. Nikhil and kyi-kyaw were in my group.
We did throwing first. I did very well.
 Next thing was hit the ball and run.I did a big hit to the bush.
The last thing was catching the ball. It was fun throwing the ball high and catching it

(Matthew wrote this story with a staff member. He was able to recall the event)

The Maori Tiki by Nikhil

 What does it mean?

This symbol is unique to New Zealand specially.

It is usually made from Pounamu and is worn green stone around the neck as a good luck charm.

The Tiki is very popular and means the creation of new life.

It helps to clear their mind and learn.

My Long Holiday by Mina

On the summer holiday, I went to Maratai Beach with my family.

My sister, brother, niece, nephew and I went swimming. Than we all ate bbq and potato salad.
My older sister, older brothers and my dad were  having a chat and I started  taking photos for my mum to see.

Then it was my mum's birthday.
So we all want to see her. My 13 and 11 year old nieces also came with us to see her.
My mum was so happy to see my nieces.

I had an awesome and great long holiday.
