My English Blog

On my holidays I went to the movies with my family and friends. When I went with my family I saw The Shaggy Dog and The Pink Panther. When I went with my friends I Saw Yours, Mine and Ours and we went shopping. I also went to Healsville Sanctury and learnt about reptiles and koalas.

Amy’s Journey started when she left New Zealand to go and live with her dad in Canada. When she left New Zealand she had to leave all her friends and school to make new friends and go to a new school. She experienced the difference between living with her dad and living with her mum. When she lived with her mum she spent a lot of time with her and got a long with her very well and living with her dad was different because she did not have much in common with him and did not get along with him.

On the 23rd of Febuary half of the year eights went to Victoria Market. I loved going there, we got to shop in groups of four without any teachers. I bought a little glass bear with my birth month and birth stone on it, a neclace with the first letter of my name and a pretty flower ring. The bear was only $15, the neclace was $5 but I only paid $3 and the ring cost $3. I got some really great bargins. We got to buy our own lunch as well. It was a fun day. Each group was given a task to do and $5 to spend. Our group had to buy pecils and texters. Everyone also had to fill in a sheet of questions about different types of cheese and the difference between organic and non organic food.  

8 alive is a program that year eights do to learn about themselves and the world around them. In the weeks that we have 8 alive we get to wear casual clothes. In our first week of 8 alive we decorated and wrote in our journals, we learnt about M power girl, who is a girl you cares about other peoples feelings and doesn’t let anything put her down. We made brochures on why we should eat healthly and went to Queen Victoria Market.
