My Profile - by Zachary

Kamusta

My name is Zachary and I am from St Patrick's School in Panmure. I really like this school because I can play around with my friends.

My favourite sports are swimming and cricket. I like swimming and playing cricket because its fun and it makes me get fit. During my free time I like to play Minecraft. I like playing Minecraft because its fun and gets my mind off school work.  

I also like travelling with my family to collect interesting information about the place. My favourite pet is a guinea pig because its very cute.

I am very proud of my culture and very blessed to be part of a loving family and school.

Chicks at St Patrick's

 Last Tuesday Jo visited us and gave us some eggs. There were eleven eggs that we had to put into the incubator. They came on the 19th day and only two more days to wait until they hatch. Once they hatched we could not touch them at first because they were wet and weird but the next day we could touch them because they were not wet anymore and they had got stronger.

When I held my chick for the first time it felt very soft. There were two boy chicks and nine girl chicks. We had to sit down when we held them and be very careful because if they fell they could break their legs. 

Daniel got to have them for the weekend and he fed them and took care of them. He brought them back to class and we had them for another four days. I cried when Jo came to fetch them.

The word fairies give me a dictionary

 Yesterday the word fairies came to our school to give dictionaries  to the year four  students. They came  from  Pakuranga  rotary  club  They have been  coming  to our school  for ten years. When I received my dictionary I got a photo with one of them. I think her name was Carol. I felt very excited and very happy because  my dictionary will help me work out what new words mean. Thank you Pakuranga Rotary club.

The Best Day of My Life

 The Best Day of My Life


Last month I went  to the Philippines and I had my birthday there. We went to McDonald's which was very exciting but we had takeaways because we were going to a lake to have  a picnic.


While we were there there were lots of ducks that wanted to eat our bread. We let them have some. 


Later we went home and I was with my cousin and we played games. It was so hot and so my family and I drank cold C2 drinks.


At the end of the day I played with my big cousin who is ten years old. We played hide and seek and I was so clever to find the best hiding place next to a bed on the floor. She could not find me for ten minutes but then I started to giggle and she heard me. She found me and then it was my turn to find her.


I really enjoyed that day in the Philippines because we were together as a family and I hope one day I can go back there again.

My Whakapapa journey

My whakapapa  Journey


My Family is big and we live in two different countries, the  Philippines and New Zealand. I live in New Zealand with my mum

because my dad died. He is in heaven now. I’ve drawn my dad, my mum

and me on a purple line to show we are one family. On the other side  are my grandparents who have also died. In the middle are my pets ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
