Holidays

In room 6, we are writing our own recounts about our holidays. I really enjoyed writing about my holidays beacuse I really enjoyed my holidays. Something I found hard was to not use the word "then" but I did. It was so hard. Next time, I could add in some Figurative Language e.g Similies.

Family Time

On the 18 of April, me and my family went to the Margaret Mahy Park. There was so many of us we had to take 2 vehicles. The weather was beautiful that day, not too hot but just right.The sun was so shiny and scorching. I love spending time with my family a lot. 

When we arrived at the park, the first thing we like to go to first is the wide slide. We raced to the slide and slid down then we would repeat probably 5 or more times. After we got tired of the wide slide, we went to the long green slide and slid down there too. We also like to play with the flying fox, jump on the trampolines and play with the water. It’s so fun! Then it’s time to go home (this is the hard part), finding all the kids. There’s 5 kids in total to look for, so me and my cousin went looking for them.

One was at the flying fox, another was at the trampolines, the other was at the wide slide and the other 2 were fighting over the circle swing. After finding all 5 kids, we got divided into twos and got into the cars and went back home to get ready for practice.

We had to go practice we had no choice, we were practicing for White Sunday (everyone’s not favourite time of the year). Our White Sunday teachers would give us paragraphs from the Bible to memorize. It was so hard. I was so lucky I got less cause my mother is my teacher for this year. We start our practice with a prayer,we begin from the little kids hymns. Next we have us older kids to do the Bible verses, after that we have our action songs to do. 

Later on, when we had completed everything. Our youth leader had requested if we wanted to do something, we wanted to go to the Park and he agreed. It was dark time, that’s the time when we like to go to the park. We all went home and got changed, then we all met at the park. Every parent comes with their own snacks to feed their own kids, we got pizza and frozen cokes. It had been 2 and half hours later and everyone was getting sick of playing, so we all went home.

It’s so fun spending so much time with my family, they just bring joy into me. My holidays were mostly spent with my whole family.
