holiday at jellie park

My Holiday at Jellie Park
I went swimming at jellie park every day in the second half of the holidays. I was having swimming lessons and they were very fun. I learnt how to do freestyle properly. I learnt how to play the mushroom game. How the mushroom game works is that you go like a ball under water and hold your breath for as long as you can. The person who can stay underwater the longest is the winner. I always won in my swimming class. I'm very good at holding my breath under water. I love swimming. I can't wait for our school pool to be open again. 

Daffodils by Evelyn MacDonald

Their petals look like the sunshine,
They tell me the days are warm and fine.
I know it's now spring,
The birds start to sing.
Baby bunnies come out to play,
The sun stays up, it's a longer day.
The daffodils look more beautiful than ever,
They start a new season, it seems so clever.
They're the first to bloom in the new sun.
Spring is here and it's such fun.

My Great Aunt's house in Auckland.

When I arrived in Auckland and we hired our car, I was so excited to be a toy tester. I was also excited to see were I was staying and meet my great aunt Evelyn. when I was there I met Evelyn and her house. I had my own room. Her house was nice and big, I liked it a lot. In her garden there were baby ferns and big ferns. Ferns are my second favourite plant. My favourite plant is a daffodil flower. 

On the morning of my photoshoot Evelyn came with us. The photoshoot was fun. I wasn't nervous at all, I was very excited instead. Here is a small video of part of my photoshoot. It was very noisy, lots of people were helping to make the photos happen.

Winter Fun Day

On Friday I went snowboarding.  When I arrived at Mt Hutt my first lesson was how to put on my snowboard. I learnt how to pick up speed, stop when you are going fast and I learnt to do a jump trick. I really wanted to go on the chair lifts and go down the mountain but I was not good enough. I really liked going on the magic carpet instead. I had a spectacular day and want to snowboard again very soon.

Holiday in Auckland

Last week I went on a small holiday to Auckland because I won the Warehouse toy tester competition and we were having our first photo shoot.
On the last day we went to Butterfly Creek. At Butterfly Creek the first thing I went to was to see the butterflies. My favourite butterfly was the Peacock Swallowtail. We also saw the crocodiles being fed. The crocodile they were feeding was called Goldie. Goldie had the strongest bite of all the crocodiles at Butterfly Creek.
We saw robot dinosaurs from the train that went around the dinosaur area.
I also got two pretty necklaces from the shop at Butterfly Creek.
 
We flew there and back on a plane.
