Holy Week

On Palm Sunday, Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey  that had never been ridden before.
When he got to Jerusalem, the people laid their cloaks on the ground and shouted, "Hosanna to the king!!!"
Next, he had a feast with his friends. He sent his disciples to a man carrying a jar of water"Follow him and he will take you to a house.
Tell the owner of the house the teacher wants you to prepare the passover feast," so the disciples went to prepare the feast.
Holy Thursday
Jesus said, "Take this all of you and eat it. This is my Body which has been given up for you." When supper was ended, he took the cup. Again he gave God thanks and praise, gave it to his disciples and said, "Take this all of you and drink from it. This is my cup of blood, the blood of new and everlasting covenant. It will be shed for all so that all sins may be forgiven. Do this in memory of me." When Jesus had finished eating, he got up from the table and went to a different part of the room and wrapped a large towel around him then poured some water into a bowl then began to wash the disciples feet.
Good Friday
After Jesus was finished, he went to the garden but one of his disciples told  the solders where he was, then they made Jesus carry the huge cross up a big big big hill.When they got up the hill, the solders put nails in his his hands and feet on the cross.
Holy Saturday
Jesus got put into a tomb.
Easter Sunday
Jesus rose from the dead.

Callis Went Crazy

Last week I went to Marni's house and Amia almost had a terrible accident!
We were all outside but... uh oh! Callis (5 years old) had too much coke and went crazy like a chimp that got shot by a crazy arrow. First of all he grabbed his dads phone,went on the middle of the road and danced to gaman style!!
Then he pushed Amrani off her bike like a wrestler!
Next he threw Amia on the tramp and it looked like she fell off a cliff.
After that I put him on my shoulder and I tried to take him to his mum but he kept on biting me like a angry penguin that was biting me as hard as it could.
But soon I finally got him to his mum  and he got in huge trouble.  After a while his mum decided to ground him for a 2 weeks but at the end of the day I had some fun.  But I did have a bite mark on my shoulder.

The Adult Race

Yesterday, the school went to swimming sports at the Ngaruawahia.
After lunch, was the ball race. First, the house captain put us into groups, then the race started. Piper jumped into the pool and ran as fast as a tiger. She got to the other side. She passed the ball to Cody then Cody ran and passed the ball to Antony. Antony ran through the water like a cheetah and he passed it to me. It was like the water was saying to me, "Hop in, hop in.: 

I hopped in and I felt like I was trapped in a freezer. I held onto the ball and kicked as fast as I could. My tummy had more butterflies than ever. My heart was pounding because I didn't want to let my team down. I finally got to the end and I passed it to River.
After the last relay, my brother was on the diving board because he was in the adult race. I could see that he was nervous because he stood behind everyone and he was shaking, then the whistle blew, “Oooooooo.” My brother was off. I was cheering as loudly as I could. My heart was pumping very fast. Molly told me that my brother looked liked a giant and I giggled and giggled and giggled.
After a while, I realised that she was right, then Morgan tagged Guy, then Guy tagged the wall and the adults finally won.  In all those years, they won only one, because my brother was on their team.

Proper Nouns

This morning, we learned about Proper Nouns. Proper Nouns are special names given to ordinary names. Proper Nouns are words starting with capital letters.
Here are some  examples.
My dog's name is ... Spot
My cat's name is ... Baby
My brother's name is ... Morgan
My mum's name is ... Sonia
My dad's name is ... Paul
My cow's name is ... Roisy and morg
My street's name is ... Old Taupiri road 
My town's name is ... Ngaruawahia
Today's day is ... Tuesday
Today's month is ... March
There are some examples if you dont know what I mean. Some times people in our class forget to start Proper Nouns with capital letters. I like learning about Nouns because you get to learn how to write properly.
