Dear Dairy

 I am really angry about how dad and mum have separated. I am also sad that mum spends more time with Becca and now I feel left out. I hated when Becca and Brian moved in because Becca got to have my bedroom.   I only like Becca because I make her do my homework.  

I don’t like it when my dad hurts  me because I get bruises. I’m sad when dad and mum argue  about me. I don’t really like talking to mum because she never listens to me.    

She always says to go to talk to dad. I only like him when he comes to my basketball training because I get to spend more time with him.  When dad ask for me mum says, “No.”

I am really happy when I’m with Jack because I give him alcohol and he drinks it and I look out if someone is heading our way.  Jack is the only person I can tell my secrets to because he is the only one who listens to me.  

I’m happy to write this down because I get it out of my mind.      

I’m as angry as a tiger.

EVERY CHILD HAS HOPES AND DREAMS

Life Of A Gallipoli Soldier

                                     Life  Of A Gallipoli Soldier

     

 On the twenty fifth  of April we landed in Gallipoli. When we landed the Turkish soldiers were shooting with their guns and   firing their bombs. None of us were hurt.  

We hopped  out of the ship  and grabbed our  guns and bombs. There were a lot of Turkish soldiers standing on the mountain shooting down at  us. We had to run to find a place to hide. We found a good place to hide in the trenches where the soldiers already dug them out before.

It was justed midday. It was the first World War and we were fighting for New Zealand and  The British Empire. We shot some of the Turkish soldiers . Jonah was a really good shooter  who aimed and killed  ten soldiers in a row.  

Next,  Private  Ronnie brought  Anzac biscuits for the New Zealand soldiers.  We all received   two Anzac  biscuits. because Ronnie brought four packets of biscuits.  

Private  Junior was really thirsty so our Captain said that we were only allowed a little sip.  Junior was really glad he  was allowed to drink.   It was time for them to go again  when they walked out and I saw some  soldiers  dead on the ground.  Luckily Privates  Ronnie, Jonah and Junior were  alive.

Later on we were really happy that none of them  passed  away. We were also proud to represent our country.   

As Proud as a soldier.

I received my certificate for being an Independent learner. I have been trying my hardest to work independently. I have noticed that if you work by yourself you get more work completed. Estah

World's Largest Sandcastle.

(Summary)

The World’s Largest Sandcastle was built on a Brazilian beach with a view of Rio De Janeiro in the distance. The sandcastle was created  only with sand and water and the Guinness World Record team travelled to Brazil to measure the sandcastle.

(Opinion)

I think the world’s largest sandcastle looks really cool. I think there should be a sandcastle built like this in NZ.  I wish I could build a sandcastle like this.
