Adventure In The Horse Riding Place

3 weeks ago my mum dad and I went to a beautiful horse riding place. I had received an invitation from my dad for Christmas.

I got into the car and went to the horse place.There was a girl who helped us to find helmet and boots. I got black shoes and a white helmet. Then I got my beautiful horse. My horse looked like dark chocolate, the mane and tail was like licorice. My mom’s horse looked like a peanut, its mane and tail were the same colour. Next I jumped on my horse.

But there was an angry horse who tried to bite my horse! That was scary so I steered away my horse. Then we started to ride. The horses were REALLY thirsty. So I gave my horse water in a big bucket. We came to a beautiful forest. My mom took a photo of me and my horse.

We rode on a small sunny track that went past the forest. There were pretty hills covered in lush green grass. We came to a paddock! My mom was riding gallop but it was a really weird gallop! It looked like a spider who played hockey! My mom said it was a weird gallop too. I was jumping over branches on the ground. We started to return to the stable. We jumped off our horses and gave them carrots. We took off our helmet and boots. Then we went home again.. :(

Nikolai, Deon, Shami and Ethan recount a fabulous game of water bombing

On Monday we played with water bombs and it was lots of fun. Ethan, Shami, Nikolai, Deon, Dillon and Mrs Goodall threw balloons in the shady hard tech area ......

                                                                        .........

First we threw one bomb to the closest friend. Next we have two bombs to throw. In the end we were throwing three bombs. Then we went to the ESOL classroom.
What a great game! I very much enjoyed the game.

By Deon

First we threw one balloon. Next we threw two balloons and I was afraid that Shami threw the balloon at me but luckily that didn't happen. I wish I could play it in my home.

By Ethan

First we threw one balloon. Next we threw two balloons. In the end we threw three balloons. After that we went back to the ESOL classroom. I felt happy and awesome at the same time as my friends.

Hikari's recount about using your words

Yesterday at lunchtime I was playing tag with Devrux and Lochlan. But suddenly another friend came to me and he said, "Can I have your food now?"
I answered, "No!" So he punched me. BOOM!

Next I asked him, "Don't do that!" He said, "Okay!" We played tag together - nicely and friendly. It was fun. I was not angry anymore.
