Jesus washing his disciples feet

 white hat:

Jesus and his disciples, Jesus was washing his disciples feet, Thursday, he was washing their feet to prove  that every one should serve.

Yellow hat: 

The positive things about this is that Jesus showed that every one should be good and he loves others.

Black hat:

The negative part of the story is when Jesus knew that Judas would betray him.

Red hat: 

When I read this story I felt happy because Jesus is showing kindness and love to everyone.

Green hat:

Another way Jesus could have served his disciples was to maybe praise them.

Blue hat: 

To sum up the story Jesus washed his disciples feet and they did not believe that Jesus their leader should be doing a servants job but he convinced them that everyone should serve. Later Jesus realised that Judas would betray him.

Surfing

   SURFING

Hello people, on Wednesday the year seven and eights went surfing at New Brighton beach. 

We had to split into our 2 maths groups so I went with my friend Corina. 

First we waited to go into the changing rooms, me and my friends were waiting for people to come out of the changing rooms so that we could go in then we realized that one of the changing rooms was unlocked so we went in but it smelt disgusting so we waited until there was a free changing room. Once we got dressed we got a surfboard each and learnt how to surf. Finally we actually got in and it was so cool like Molly, although Molly didn't go because she was too busy doing cool stuff. The surf instructors said that if I stopped laughing I could stand up. I never stood up. It was very hard because everyone was in the way so I just ran them over like a cool kid. My favourite part of surfing was just gliding on the surfboard and not trying to stand up because I couldn't be bothered. 

Now here is a picture of all my friends kind of surfing:

By the way, Corina was there too but I can’t get a photo of her. (:

Can you surf?

What is the purpose of a blog?

Today me and my friend Elliott had to make a short comic strip to show the purpose of a blog and here it is. I also really enjoyed using the characters from a site called flat icon, you should go try it out!

Museum Thank you letter

Dear Museum Team, 

Thank you so much for showing us all of the old fashioned games!

I liked how we got a lot of free time to play with the games.

The games are so clever and it’s amazing how you have them at the museum because they really are interesting.You did a fantastic job of explaining the games and making sure we understand how they work. I had a lot of fun there and I wish to come back again.

From,

 Lily.

 

Mary's diary, Gabriel tells Mary

OH MY GOSH!! An angel just came up to me and told me I’m going to have a BABY!

I don’t know if I’m excited or scared.. I think both.

Well at least I know he wasn’t lying because he was sent by God.

I’m a virgin, how could I even have a baby?! 

The angel was called Gabriel and he told me to name my baby Jesus.

Am I actually ready for a baby? This is all so confusing but I’m also so happy, I’ll be a mother and that's like a dream  come true.

He’ll be loving I’m sure, he’ll be caring I’m sure, He’ll be kind I’m sure! He’ll be Jesus, God’s son why wouldn't he be all of those things?

Oh, and also he told me that my cousin Elizabeth is pregnant too! Wow how crazy is this?

Anyways, I better sit down and think about this miracle.

Persuasive letter about Charlie

                       WALT: Write a persuasive letter

Lily,
Room 2,
NBC.

Tuesday 1st August 2020.


Dear Miss Pownall,

I strongly believe that Room 2 should have a cute, playful dog in the class for the day.                            It will boost our mood, make not only us but the dog happier and we will learn by training Charlie.

First of all, everyone knows that dogs bring joy to the world. They are happy, cute, fluffy things of course they bring joy! When you’re mad they can lower your stress, when you're sad they can fill you up with happiness.An example is that when I used to have a dog he would start barking and playing if I was bored but when I was sad he sat on my lap and demanded for pats.
Studies have shown that even small interactions with a dog can make you feel better even if they nudge you or rub into you a bit, even one stroke!

Secondly, WE can make the dog happy! By taking it for walks and giving it attention.
Dogs love exercise and the fresh air, they like this because it gives them more energy.
You know when you see a dog sticking its head out the window or if you have a dog it probably does this too. Why they do this is exactly what I just said, they like fresh air for energy, they don't like being stuck in the car.
When you give a dog attention they feel safer and happier around you it makes them feel better because it shows them that you love them.

Finally, to train a dog you learn something.
You teach it to sit, shake, roll over. Did you know that some people have JOBS to train dogs and show the tricks to other people and obviously that starts off with training the dog.
So yeah! You can definitely learn from training a dog, also you get exercise going out with the dog so it will teach you mentaly and physically.

In conclusion I’m asking if we could please have Charlie in the class for a day because Charlie will help us with our learning and exercise.

Sincerely,

Lily M

Not ALL children should have pets

WALT: write a persuasive text
Not all children should have PTS

Now, I don’t know WHY people would think that all children should have pets.

Pets are fantastic and all but pets can change peoples lives! Children could have 

allergies, pets can be dangerous and they can cost a lot.

First of all, kids can have very bad allergies.

Usually it is cats but it could be any animal really.
If every kid had a pet then a few kids would have to visit the hospital because of their allergies.

Some kids can be so allergic to animals that they can't even be in the same room as the animal
that they are allergic to. An example of allergies is that my step dad can get a fever if he
doesn’t wash his hands after petting our cat.

Secondly, pets can be dangerous.

If pets aren’t trained they can bite you, especially young children.

I’ve heard of people who have died because of some vicious animals.

Of course it’s not every day that you get attacked by your pet but it has happened to some people.

Finally, pets can cost A LOT of money!

You might be thinking, “oh… it's only a bit to buy a pet…” But their food and beds
and toys can be very expensive, especially their food.

Some people have put their pet on the street because they are not doing well with their money for the pet,
which is not a good thing to do.

If you’re struggling then you should take your pet to an animal shelter. My mum doesn’t want a dog for
the money and a few other things but mostly the money. That’s why we have a cat because they are
less work
and money.

So, basically what I'm saying is that if all children had pets then lots of families would be

struggling
