New Zealand is an island in the pacific ocean that has one of the highest fatal drowning rates in the OECD (dpnz.org,nz).  It is important to learn how to swim because if your boat capsizes you can save yourself from drowning and from drifting away from your boat.

What makes a good friend

 What makes a good friend

Wednesday, 2 September 2020

Good friends are loyal and accept you for who you are during the good and bad times. Good friends are also honest — honest enough to tell you when you're not being a good friend yourself. ... Along with good friends who are present, loyal, and honest, most people want friends who are trustworthy.

I think a good friend shows respect by listening to you and helping you when you need help and also making sure that you are not getting bullied at school.

I think that a good friend walks home with you after school and they make sure that you are getting home safe and  walking home safely as well.

A good friend is someone you can tell your secrets to and  also let them know what is happening in your daily life and you can also tell them about how you day went and about your personal information. A good trustworthy friend is someone who is reliable and has a kind heart.

MY best friend / cousin is sumurre she is funny kind and she is trustworthy she makes me feel happy and she is the best friend i have ever had in my life she is loving and caring she doesn't make you feel guilty about anything she make you laugh and if u dont have food she will give you some and she is 

Really really the best person ever.

Title:  Mademoiselle Jacobs scary Luminos Circus    -    Date:Friday,26, June.

Characters:  Rebekah, Kyah, Quin and Malachai. -   By Rosie

The night of the circus 
The kids hopped on the bus to get to their campsite. They left all their stuff there they hopped back in the bus and Rebekah asked Malachai if they were nearly there and Malachai said no we still have two hours left. When they arrived the kids were really scared because there was cut dolls heads and sharp knives in the wall there was lots of blood and lots of random things and hardly any light Malachai,Rebekah,kyah and Quin were really really scared they were shivering and they didn't have warm clothes on. When the Circus started they were so scared but then it was not as scary as they  thought but the they started to throw the knives and used sharp sticks to throw at the crowd and every one was trying to escape but they looked the dors and the mc said welcome to the killing circus they tricked all of the people that came to the luminos circus . The circus team were getting ready and Malachai and Quin {aka the oldest} were trying to get Rebekah and Kyah attention but they  didn't so they crawled over to them and then they grabbed them and took them right at the Big Top.

They tried to escape but were caught by the circus owner. He started to throw bigger knifes at them. Rebekah was trying to run away when a knife lodged in her ankle vertically and made a huge gouge. Her sisters dragged her away while she screamed in agony. Malachai got hit in the middle of the forehead and died on impact. The rest of them got out. They were dragging a screaming Rebekah and a dead Malachai with them. Once they were outside the circus Big Top, they hopped in their car, but at the least second, a hand grabbed Quin’s arm and dragged her back. Rebekah took the knife out of her ankle, covered it with her shirt and rushed to go save her little sister. Rebekah took the knife with her and raised it above her head, and plunged it into his eye socket. They grabbed Quin and left the circus as quickly as they could before something else can happen.

Back at the campsite, Quin called for a paramedic to stitch Rebekah’s ankle  back together and to take away Malachai’s corpse. Rebekah and Quin went in one ambulance, and Kyah and Malachai’s corpse went in the other. They went back home, told their parents their story and never went anywhere without their parents ever again.

For the 1th time I use honey in my cooking.And for the 1th time Rosie use honey in the cooking.Cooking is something that calms me down.

It was kinda hard to add the honey as it was sticky.

We had the good idea to melt our chocolate instead of just putting in it the mixture, so then Kelly melted it for us and we drizzled it ontop.
