Camp Edmund Rice


In the holidays I went in my van and we drove to church and we went inside and we got in a group. My sister was in the blue team and my brother was in the red team. I was in the green team. 


I went to camp because it was fun and it was cool. My leader's name was Marcus and we got in a circle and we all said our name.

Next we got in our groups and we had to remember everyones names. I stayed there for 1 day and I did lots of activities like bull rush. Then we went outside, went on the bus and went to church and we went home. I had I lot of fun.

Mothers Day


On mothers day I made my mum breakfast. I made scrambled eggs, bacon, toast and coffee. She loved it! During the weekend I went to the pools with my Mum as well. My Mum came to see my rugby game and we won. She was happy that I won my game. It was fun and we went back home and we played games. Then we went to exercise at a gym in Mangere. My mum was tired but it was fun and she was happy.
