Dear Mr Des Forges

I hope you had an EXCELLENT egg eating time because I had a great time. Our  family  didn’t  go away, we decided to stay here in Auckland. My favourite day in the holiday  was  Easter Sunday so I might tell you about that! When I woke up  I felt really excited  because it was  Easter and come  o what 8 year old girl  dosn’t like easter  and the  thought of all those eggs!

 In the morning when in the kitchen I saw there LARGE! eggs on the table. 2 shaped as a bunny and 1 HUGE egg shaped as a pig (IT WAS 1 KG!!)  and 2 small  sized eggs for me and George because our eggs weren’t as big.

Later on that morning Mum went outside and saw the Easter bunny had visited. Georgina, Leo and I started hunting for Easter treats (like we always do).  I found about 20 chocolates and when I looked in the mailbox I found 1 egg and three letters. Then we all ran to mum and dad and opened the letters.  WOW $40 and a card each.  Of course it was from our Grandma she always trys to suprise us. We then all decided that today was going to be a family day so we would see no Friends or use computers or phones.

After that we went into the lounge and talked. I wasn’t really talking I was to busy looking at all my eggs! Later on we all decided to go for a long walk. My sister was slow on the walk because she didn’t want to ruin her brand new, clean tramping boots (Leo & George only got new tramping boots because they are going on a 7 hour tramp and I can’t come).  After the walk we were all really, really hot so we decided to go for a swim in our friends pool.

About half an hour later we went home,had showers then headed out to parnell where we had lunch at Non Solo Pizza we ate so much that we were sooooo full. We went for a walk around the old village where we found a chocolate shop we couldn’t help our selves so we went inside and feasted on more chocolate! On the way home we went into the video shop to get some DVDs. Where were so full from lunch, so we decided not to have dinner. Then it was time for bed. I felt soo sad… no more chocolate eggs for me until next year.

Best wishes

Bees sing Bees sting
They like to use their wings
[CHORUS] Buzz Buzz Buzz Buzz Buzzzzzzzz
They eat honey that makes them go all funny
They fly up high in the to beautiful sky
And cry when their friends are about to die
Bye bye from bees who live in the hive.

Room Six has been learning about Hints and Tips. Here are some about caring for your pet:

• Feed it everyday so it stays healthy
• Don’t get other animals that it will chase or hurt
• Give it snuggles and play with it
• Let it inside when it is raining
• If your pet is sick take it to the vet
• Don’t pick up your pet too much
• Let it do what it wants to do
• Get it all the things it needs
• If you are going to buy a pet make sure you can make enough time to care, feed and play with it.
• Groom it everyday
• Take it for walks if it is a dog

I WILL KILL THEM WITH A ROCKET

Dear Diary,

Pardon my language but at noon I attacked ‘the pigs’. I got booby trapped from the fire under me. I felt exhausted, hot tempered & angry at losing to the pigs after the medication I had. Five injections, seven stitches and EXTRA MEAT! The pigs will pay - definitely. I do hope they’re not playing another trick but I’m armed!

This means I cannot be fooled!
No one can stop me.
Whoa ho ha ha ha haaaa
