My Weekend

In the weekend Bridgitte and Elena came over to play.
 First we played with the barbies. They went to a  pink glamour party and to school. We talked and played some Singstar.
After that we were really hungry and it was time to have Morning Tea. "Mmmm yum chocolate cupcakes!" we all said together.
Bridgitte and Elena taught  my sister and I  how to play lots and lots of fun games. My favourite game was Wars, when we had two teams and we had to throw balls at each other and battle on the battlefield. We had lunch and then decided to go down to the swamp.
After walking through the paddock and over the fence we made some huts and bridges. The swamp was right beside the road so we saw Bridgitte and Elena's mum go past. "It's time to back!" shouted Elena. "Ok." We all replied.
When we got  back we had to hose off  all the mud from the swamp. Bridgitte and Elena's mum was there looking around our garden. We quickly played the card game Egg before it was time for them to go. "Time to go!" Shouted Bridgitte and Elena's mum.
After that they were off. I hope that they can come again and maybe stay the night.

Cluster Athletics

Last Wednesday ages eight and up got to go to the Cluster Athletics at the YMCA. We were split into six groups, junior, intermediate and senior boys and girls. The events were as same as usual, but one event I had never heard of before and I got third in it! It was standing long jump. I was in the final for the fifty metre final and the two hundred metre final which I got third in. My favorite part of the day was doing high jump because I got third when I expected to get seventh.  The day was fun, exciting and better organized then the Athletics at Cooks Gardens. I hope that next year they will have the Cluster Athletics at the YMCA again!

Did You Know?

Did you know that cattle are the only mammals that pee backwards!
Wow!
I bet that you didn't know that!
Have a look at my blog next week to see another amazing fact!

My Alien

A few weeks ago we made aliens out of play-dough. Then we had to write a story about them and film them. Here is my story.

Today NASA  received information that there are life forms on Saturn. Lauren P,  space explorer reported back via satellite that she had found a new life form. This life is reported as being skinny as if it was only skin and bones. Lauren found it sleeping in her hair when she woke up yesterday morning. She reported back that it blended in with Saturn because it was yellow, pink and cream coloured and that it looks cute, but actually it is very dangerous, 'cause it nests in your hair and sucks your blood,  that's what happened to Lauren. The strange creature made some beeping noises as if it was trying to talk to Lauren. It was reported as 10cm tall, but it jumps 89cm high. It's an amazing creature, but apparently it rears up all the time! It has green hair and swirly ruby horns. It also has pink polka dots. Lauren has named this life form the Phillipa.

  

Mathex

Last week it was Mathex. I was in the year five Mathex. We had to try and answer twenty questions. If a question was too hard you could pass, but my team didn't pass and we got up to question twenty and answered nineteen questions correctly!

 In the end my team came first but we didn't stop the clock. Maybe next year my team might stop the clock.

The Jabberwocky

Have you heard of the Jabberwocky, the Jubjub bird or the Bandersnatch?
Well it was in a poem written by Lewis Carroll. Lewis made up words and then put them into his poem. Then it was turned into a play.
At school we are putting on the play the Jabberwocky. I am playing the role of the mean Mayoress. I can't wait!
