My Life - by Caleb

My friends are Preston, Harry, Javarhn and Isaack. My friend Isaack has two buggies, one has two seats one has one seat.  His dad built them and a monster truck.  We got to ride them at our school fair:



I went to Preston's house, he has a lot of guns and two walkie talkies that me and him can talk through. Javarhn and me like to play scooters sometimes. We have races, that's how you play. Harry likes to play monster trucks with me and Preston. We go into the sand pit and play there. If it is too wet we play at the top field. This all happens at school, except when I go to Preston's house. At Preston's house we played on the iPad and Preston played with the X-Box.

Last week I went on a trip down to the bakery in town. Me and dad's cousins and my mom and my brother went to Te Papa (a museum) but not my dad and my sister, because my sister was sick and dad needed to take care of her.  We saw some different kinds of dresses and a motor cycle and a long long Maori boat. We also saw an old plane. One of the dresses was made out of wood. It was very thorny.

I learned how to use a saw in the basement of our house. And I chop up wood for the fireplace in our house. Its very warm.  We can see a lot from our house. Here we are at the beach near our house last month when it was warmer.  My dad doesn't like the sun.




It is raining a lot here and we had a rugby game in the rain and I really wanted to score a try. 

We had a big tournament with all the teams from our club.  My dad is my coach and he said that this day was one of the best days of his life!


My brother Jonny plays in the nursery group:

After that, we went to a fair. There were lots of stuff that were free at the fair. We ate candies (lollies) and I saw one of my friends at the fair. There was a jumping castle that was free (no money) and there was nobody to say how many people were allowed at once. I jumped into the walls on the jumping castle and my sister did too. After that we had lunch and then me and Jon had a nap. When we woke up we went to a park very near our house on a street called Tuna Terrace. I rode my bike there, my brother went with his bare feet, my sister just brought her shoes. 

When we came back from the park, we played a little rugby game just to teach us what we are allowed to do. Then it was time for dinner. After dinner Camille and Jonny were shouting through a little cardboard tube.

We are very excited to see our family that is in Canada in seven days. They are going to come to New Zealand. We hope you stay safe in Canada when the cold weather comes.
