Anti-Bullying poem

You punch me,you kick me you call me names.

Why can't i join your games.

Why do you pick on me and just wait and see.

Shame on you i don't like you.

Why me stop bulling.

Please can we be friends i want this to end.

Why can't you share and please care.

I don't want to tear just share.

Easter Egg Hunt

Today it was Easter Sunday. We were so excited to find the yummy delicious chocolate Easter Eggs.

When we found all of them, one of them was missing. I found it outside in the green bush.

We had to have five each. I had six, so I had to give one of mine to an adult.

When we ate all of our Easter Eggs, we had a tummy ache, then we played on the Xbox. We played Halo. Aria, Jahnyva and I were bored so we watched Little Kids Saved the Day.

We watched it all day then Aria’s dad who took the movie out took it back to the DVD shop. We then walked into the sitting room. Our favourite movie was gone. Aria said, ‘’Where is the movie? We looked everywhere. When I looked under the wooden table, I found three Easter Eggs. I told Jahnyva and Aria to come to the table. We ate them quietly, then the boys came in the sitting room. We hid the colourful paper so that the boys couldn’t see it. They just saw us watching Tintin. We had put it on just so they would not know we had those three yummy delicious smooth chocolate Easter Eggs. When they went back in the room, we started to pick another movie. When I stood on the carpet, it felt like a soft fluffy white radiant pillow.We watched the Lego movie. Aria said the the movie was boring so we walked quietly like grey mice. When we were at the door, we scared the boys with a big huge ROAR! We roared like a grumpy lion. They screamed loud like a big green angry dinosaur. I told them that we girls had Easter Eggs. After we told them that we had Easter Eggs, we ran back into the sitting room. We ran into the kitchen, grabbed the cold ice and ate it. We had a brain freeze because we ate too much ice. OUCH! that was the best Easter Sunday.

Holy Thursday Liturgy

Holy Thursday Liturgy

It was now the time of Passover. Jesus’ followers came to Him and said, “We will go and prepare everything for the Passover Feast. Where do you want to eat the feast?” Jesus answered, “Go into the city. A man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him. He will go into a house. Tell the owner of the house, “The teacher wants you to prepare the room for the Passover meal.” So the followers left and went into the city and prepared the Passover Feast.

In the evening, Jesus went to that house with the twelve. While they were eating, Jesus took the bread and gave God thanks and praise. He broke the bread, gave it to his disciples, and said: “Take this, all of you, and eat it; this is my body which will be given up for you.”





  
When supper was ended, he took the cup. Again he gave God thanks and praise, gave the cup to his disciples, and said: “Take this, all of you, and drink from it; this is the cup of my blood, the blood of the new and everlasting covenant. It will be shed for you and for all so that sins may be forgiven. Do this in memory of me.”

After some time, Jesus got up from the table and went to a different part of the room.  He put a large towel around him, making himself look like a servant.  After that, he poured water into a large bowl and began to wash the disciples' feet.  He then dried them with the towel that was wrapped around Him.

When Jesus had finished washing all of the disciples’ feet, he returned to the table.  "Do you understand what I have done for you?"  Jesus asked them.
Jesus is like a King - but even greater than a king, He's the King of Kings!  By washing the disciples’ feet, He was doing something that only a servant would do.
This is an example of how you should treat others.  You don't have to actually wash other people's feet, but do kind things to others and act like a servant for Jesus.

Waka Races

Today, we walked to the riverbank to watch the Regatta waka races.

When we got to the riverbank, we sat down to watch the races. The water was sparkling and the crowd on the other side of the river was shading under tent tops. Some crews were getting into the waka to go up-river for their races.

Harrigan’s crew was racing next. We cheered for them. We were shouting as loudly as we could. We shouted, "GO, ST PAUL'S! GO, ST PAULS!’’ 

I had a big smile on my face. They were going as fast as they could.When they were going past, we called out, "GO ST PAULS! GO ST PAULS!’’ We were shouting as loudly as we could to make them paddle faster and faster to the finish line. The boys in the waka were paddling in the waka so they would win the race and make it to the finish line. We won.

Live Simply Day

Today is Live Simply Day.We live a Live Simply Day so that we can stand in solidarity with the poor people in our world. To live simply means to go without anything that isn't needed for us to survive, such as technology, and electrical devices like a toaster, a car, a bike and a scooter. It means to go without sweet food. Our school ate rice for lunch.
