Last term Pukeokahu school went to Whakatane. On the first day we went to the sea. The best 3 things I liked about the sea was how it moved me. It looked funny. I loved it when the waves were big because they would push me away. On the last day there were big waves. After that we went on a boat with Ken & Bev. Then we put on life jackets on and off we went. Then we stop to go fishing and got out the kayaks and went kayaking with an adult. They would drop us of at the other side of the shore. Then a person would come and pick us up. When I got picked up I noticed in the kayaks that there was this thing that you could look through but it was under us. Next we went to the Mataatua Marae. The first thing that we did was all all of the girl’s had to watch a movie. The movie was about the Mataatua Marae moving around the world. It was interesting. After we finished watching the movie it was the boy’s turn. Then we had to do a hongi. After that we went inside the mataatua marae. It was cool. Then we had to sit down and watch this shadow movie it was about the the carvings when we were finished watching the movie I took some photos. Then we had to say our pepeha. After we finished saying our pepeha we went in side this place and we ate food. When went to our cabins we had a swim in the pool. There were hydroslides. It was fun and funny

When we go to Whakatane for camp I expect to find a crab I want to see it clap with its pincer. But I hope it doesn’t pincer my feet. I wounder what colour it would be may be red. Did you know that when crabs grow to big for there shells then they grow another shell. I want to look for shells and take them home to listen to the sea when we go there we should say a to the sea then the sea will look after us. my dad said. At school we are getting stuff ready for camp. I would love to see a dog fish because Ive never seen one before and I wounder why they are called dog fish may be they are light brown I can’t wait. I would like to see a jelly fish sting a little fish it would be funny. but I might not beabel to see one because there in the deep part bye the rip.

The Aorangi is a mountain it is big and up the top it is flat like a table. It looks like a table but its kind of dark purple. I think that it is beautiful. I love swimming in the river because its got lots of room and lots of people can swim at the same time. Did you know that in Maori we call our river rangitikei. I think that name in Maori is a very cool name. I live in the country which is far away but in the country there is no noise. You still can hear the sheep but thats ok. I live on the farm because I love going on the motorbike with Dad. Our school is special because we do reading) writing) and we do spelling. I all so have lots of friends. pukeokahu.

The girl fed the yoghurt to the cat but the girl tricked it. The cat thought that it had yoghurt on his nose. When the cat found out there was nothing on his nose he was angry. But then the girl gave the yoghurt to the cat.
“Finally” said the cat.
