Japan


There was aether decider in Japan. It was off the coast off Japan,they had a Earthquake and tsunami,the tsunami coast losts of damage . All the houses were engulfed by water,the force of nature washed Japan away . I woneder if some people are self,if I had been thire I’ll be sad.




The earthquake didn’t really c that much damage in Japan. But it cos a lot of pepole daied, but it is the tsunami that cost the most damgae. The tsunami came running donw really fast,it looked really big and strog. It is so powerfl than the earthquake.



I have been looking at some research and hared that the tsunami was 8.9 high. I also been looking at some pitchers,they looked very sad and I hope that the people that are alive are self. The buildings have been badly damage and heaps of people have past away. This is bigger than the Christchurch one. They have made a big buildings so people can go to the top and stand on it,because they always have earthquakes in Japan.

Cricket


Every Thursday’s room 17’n go out and learn how to play cricket . Last week we went to cricket,we always start with a practice. We have to have four people in our group,we do that to learn how to bat and play. When we have finished we start to play the real game. Every time it is my turn I feels scary.



When I got to bat I felt sacred,then after a while I didn’t. Hermit is always the bowler,he throws the ball then I whack it. I start to run when you run you have to touch the wickets so I can get points for my group. It is a very cool game to play.


Today we went to cricket. We learned how to bowl,we first learn how to hold the ball. Then we play a game were you have to have a pannier and a cone in the meddle and one ball. To play your pannier has to be on a side and you also have to be on a side too. You have to aim to the cone.

Holiday Highlight


My favourite holiday event was going to Mission bay. I went with my big sister my little brother and mum. We went there at night time, all of us thought the water was dirty there. After that we had some fish and chips. Once we had finished our meal and had rested we went to swim on the aether said because it was clean. I really liked it there because I got to play on the sand and play in the water. In the water I got to felt cold but I stilll played in the water. When we were on our way home my mum said, “do you want to go to the water fountain?’’ We said yes! So after that we went there and me and my little brother Suli jumped into the water. Water from the fountain came splashing down on me. Suli was trying to catch the water. After a while we had to finally get out and go home.
