My mother is the best in the World




Do you have someone who looks after you? I do. My mum is trying to be the best mother she can be for my sisters, brother and I. My mum has red hair, a tan face and brown eyes. She is the best mum in the world because she was the manager of my rugby team. But now she is secretary of our team. On Saturdays my mum takes me to my rugby game. My mum laughs at me when she scores a goal in the goal post. My mother takes me to the chipmunks or to the zoo, even McDonalds. Every second Tuesday we go into town at night because it is my mum’s payday. Sometimes we go to the video shop and hire DVDs. My mum is the best in the world because she bought me a play station 2. When my mum goes out shopping she buys my sisters, my brother and I lots of things. Once my mum bought me a skateboard. My sisters and brother got a scooter. My mum also buys me some clothes or games. She buys me some toys but sometimes I don’t like it because it is plastic. When it is my birthday we go to the movies and mum gives me $50 to play arcade games.
My mother is the best mother she can be for us. I know my mum is the best in the world.

Duffy Award - Caught Being a Good Grandparent




At this morning's school assembly, Eruera's grandmother, Teone, received the Duffy Book Award for "Caught being a Good Grandparent". The book she got was called "Paradise" which is a photographic journey through amazing New Zealand. Teone was overjoyed and almost in tears to receive the award. I chose Teone because she supports Eruera and Room 12 with our school activities. She accompanied Room 12 on our field trip to Sky Tower and Motat this year. On Thursday 8th November Teone helped Room 12 to cook a boil-up for the Whanau Evening's fundraiser. This morning she surprised the Staff of Kelvin Road School with a scrumptious cake that she baked herself. Teone really deserves the award for being a good grandma - we all could do with a grandmother like Teone.
Thank you Teone :-)
