Englands Haka / Hakarena

This Video is about England's Haka/Hakarena. This video made me laugh out loud and so will you. England's attempt to do the Haka transformed into the hakarena. This dance is part Haka part Magdalena. This video started off serious and then turned into a surprisingly funny dance the Magdalena. I give this video a thumbs up.

Coke should not be an everyday drink for children

Dear coke inventors

I strongly disagree with coke being an everyday drink for children. Here are my reasons why.

Firstly coke is very unhealthy for children. It could cause heart problems and you  could get obese. It may cause all sorts problems like these.

Secondly it is full of lots of bad things like caffeine, sugar and other things. Caffeine can keep you up all night and stop you from learning the next day. It is also a drug. YUCKY!!!

Also coke has no fibre so your liver can't process it.

Finally coke is very bad for your teeth. It can rot your teeth and cause cavities or even worse fillings. Then all of the kids with end up at the dentist and they can lose their teeth and get false teeth.

So that's why coke is not an everyday drink for children.

Highlight of my summer

My summer highlight is camping with my mum, my little brother, Liam, my aunty and cousin. on the first day we set up everything at the camp site and then we went down to a river that was near by. We swam in the river for a while and then we went back up.  We had dinner and went to sleep. We stayed there for two nights. On the last night we saw a possum at our friends camp and then we went back to our camp and then we saw a possum at our camp! Then we heard a More pork in the tree that was next to our tent. We tried to find it, but it was hiding. We lay awake for a while and then we heard it move to a tree on the other side of the camp site. It was very exciting for my cousin Mackenzie, Because she had never seen a More pork before.
                                                                   It was fun camping.

Why cats are the best pet

Cats are the best pet

Lots of people have pets and I think Cats are the very best pet. Some people will hate cats because they scratch your curtains, but Cats are very entertaining, amazing, and easy to look after. I am sure after you read this you will think Cats are amazing too.

Cats are very funny and entertaining. They are very smart and intelligent, so you can teach them tricks. For example, my Cat Rico can stand on his hind legs and jump up onto our fence. But  you should never tease a cat. Teaching a cat tricks can sometimes lead to teasing. You can play with them as well. You can get cat toys and use them to teach your cat tricks or just play a little game with them.

Cats are very amazing. For instance, Cats can climb trees. Most animals can’t climb trees. And another reason is, that if a cat jumped off a high place, it would always land on its feet! It can jump really high and it can sense if someone was coming up to your front door.

Finally, Cats are very easy to take care of. Unlike dogs, you don’t need to clean a cat because cats clean themselves. You don’t need to get a cage or kennel, because cats always come back home if you keep them in the house for two weeks. Dog’s need company, but cats don’t. So you don’t need to worry about your cat when you go to work every day. And if you're got a rat problem, your cat would eat them, so you don’t really need to feed them much if they eat rats. Another reason is you don’t need a backyard or big section to have a cat. You could just have it inside your house all day and if you have a apartment, you can fit a cat in there. Sometimes you don’t need to buy them a bed! they will sleep on the end of your bed most of the time.

some people might think cats are bad because they have claws, but you can get their claws removed.

Now you know why cats are amazing. They are the best pet for you. So go down to your nearest pet shop and get one now ( unless they're sold out )

Me and my sailing buddy made this poster on Optimist yachting safety rules. We used colored pencils and used pencil to write the words.
