Fruit And Vegetables

My favourite fruit are apples, because they are colourful, juicy and crunchy.  My favourite vegetables are carrots, because they are also nice and crunchy.  Fruit and vegetables have vitamins in them which are good for our bodies.  Vitamins make you fit and strong, and they help our bodies to fight off germs and viruses.  You see, God made fuit and vegetables for us to eat because they make us healthy, they help to prevent us from getting sick.  I love my fruit and vegetables.

A Rainbow In The Sky

When I see a rainbow in the sky I feel so happy,
I want to sing about it.
I dance through the hallway
and then I go outside singing loudly.  
Not too loud, just like an inside voice.  
And later I go inside again
and I eat a rainbow cupcake that our mum made us. 
I love rainbows.

 

My Weekend

On the weekend, I read lots of books at home with my parents. And then my parents told me to read more books because it helps me in my knowledge. After I went in my room and read lots and lots of stories.

When I finished reading my stories, I write what I’m reading about in my stories. After when I finish reading and writing, I went with my friends at the backyard of my house. My weekend was so exciting and fun.

On Father's Day

On the weekend my family and I celebrated Father's Day.  We celebrated Father's Day at church.  It was held at my uncle's house. When we got to my uncle's house we waited untill the church service had started.  When got inside we sang the first song and after that Father said something.  Then we sang again.  After that we listened to the first Bible reading and the second Bible reading.  Then we listened to the Gospel which Father read.

When the Gospel reading had finished we had Holy Communion. This means that they give out the bread and the wine.  The adults have the bread and the wine and the kids get blessed.  Finally, Father went to the front and we said a prayer.  Later our church service was finished.  It was fun to sing to the Lord and listen to Bible readings.  Then we all went home and played outside.

The Church Strand

In Religious Studies we have been learning about the Church Strand.  We have learnt that for us the word church doesn't mean the building in which we go to worship God together. The word church refers to the people who are in our chuch community.  We can worship God anywhere because he is always with us and he always listens to us.  We don't have to be in a church building to talk and pray to God.  We have also learnt about Jesus being baptised by John the Baptist, who was his older cousin.  John said, "Here is the Lamb of God" who takes away the sin of the world (John 1:29).  John encouraged people to, "Come and see".  We talked abou how Jesus called the four fishermen to be his Disciples.  Then he called some more men to be his Apostles.  This was the beginning of our early church.  The church is, and always was, about the people who come together to worship God.  We liked learning about the early church and what it means for us today.

Father's Day

On Father's Day we went to Denny's restaurant.  There was my mum, dad, little brother and I.   We got some sourbread for my dad and he was happy.  We had other things to eat too.  I said, "You are the best dad".  My dad said, "Thank you Caylin".  I had a fun day!

Father's Day

On Father's Day I packed up my things.  Then I helped to tidy up the house.  When I had finsihed I had a shower and brushed my teeth.  Then I got ready for our Father's Day breakfast.  After breakfast I went and tidied up my room again because my older brother needed a pencil.  His name is Tautoua.  Then I finished tidying up the house.  After that I did my homework and some handwriting.  My mum and dad had gone shopping.

Later I played with my older brother on the playstation . The game we played was called Black Cups. Then we heard the sound of our car.  We knew that our mum and dad were back home from the shops.  We had all made our dad Father's Day Cards.  My dad liked his Father Day Cards and he said, Thank You".

After that we got ready to go to the beach.  First we put our things into the van.  My cousin, anutie, uncle and nana went in anther van.  Then we drove to the beach.  At the beach I put everything outside.  I went to change in the women's toilets and then I went for a swim in the sea.  I also played rugby with my uncle and dad.  After that we had something to eat and we played some more.  When we were all tired we drove back home.  I had a fun day on Father's Day with my family.
