Inter ct Art Festivel By Joel

On Thursday I went to the InterAct Art Festival in Henderson with my class and the two other classes. First of all, we travelled in three cars to get to the base school. I went into Val's car. Next, we went onto a bus to get to the festival. When we got there we went inside and I first painted a picture with a lot of patterns on it. Then I went and made a hat. I made a dog hat. After that, we all went and watched some performers. Matthew, Kyi Kyaw and Kaine took part in the wearable arts parade. Next, we had lunch and us to the top sidewalk to try and get a bus to take us back to school, but our bus got cancelled so we had to wait on the grass for another bus to come. Finally, when the new bus came we went onto it and it took us back to the base school where the taxi picked me up. I had a really awesome time at the arts festival.

My Dream Trip To Japan by Julia

During my  October holiday, I went to Japan with my mum, dad and brother.  We first went to the Airport. I was wearing an Ariana Grande t-shirt and a pair of jeans.  My brother kept me busy by showing me some tricks.  We waited for our plane to come.  We had something to eat.  Then we went inside the aeroplane. I was watching  The Big Bang Theory and I was listening to  Charlie Puth.  In  Japan, we went to the wax museum. My mum took a  photo of me

and  Justin Biber and Michael  Jackson. I also saw a wax statue of Tom Cruise who was on a bike. We rode on a bullet train in Japan. It went very fast.  I had a great time.          

Fun School Holiday by Matthew

On Friday I went to the gym to play Basketball. After the game, I went home and walked straight into my room to sleep.The next Morning I did my chores and went to my Cousin’s house to spend the night there.  I was very active this holiday. I ran, played basketball, and swam at the beach.  This was good because I lost 8 kg and I feel great.
