Holiday Recounts

It's great to back in Room 20. In week 1 we all wrote about a holiday experience and published these as Wordles. Here are some of our experiences and photos of some of our Wordles too. Come and see all of them in the classroom.

THE BEACH

By Joseph S
 

‘’Not again’’ I moaned as dad packed us in the van to go to the blustery beach  for the second time in a row. Brum, brum, the van went as we trundled up the road to omaha beach.

Finally after 45 minutes in the van we reached our destination. WASP ALERT, WASP ALERT there were loads of wasps on the path, rephrase, there were millions of wasps on the wood leading towards the beach. Done the drive, got past the wasps, now what else oh yeah, the beach.

When dad went for a run, I dug a huge hole under the towel, so when he sat down he fell right in the hole!  “Is it time to go in the sea yet, “dad” I questioned dad, “yeah’’ squeaked my little sister Thea, ‘’Ok then’’ answered dad.

So here we are in the crisp cold sea , trying to get warm after about 10 minutes, I asked ‘’c-a-n-we-g-o -i-n-now’’ while my teeth vibrated. like i said COLD! Get warm, Get changed that's what I was only thinking at that time.

In the car I had a my Canterburys and a jumper on. when i got back in the house I got myself a milo and retreated to the couch and read a book. AH! 

The unexpected

By James E

It was the end of a delicious picnic feast at Red beach. Nana had just walked to the car to read her book. Lucy and I were playing in the soft wet cold sand. I decided to walk back to the car when... I fell into a deep hole and slid down deeper. 

Then I felt a tremendous terrifying pain like hail was falling on me. Lucy heard me scream, “Help!” She ran up and asked,“What are you doing in a hole?". Then she yelled out to nana "Nana, nana, James fell down a deep hole."

Nana was about to say get out of the hole, but Lucy replied that I was stuck and was crying. Nana walked over to the hole.  I managed to get a leg out carefully.  

Nana and Lucy pulled and I pushed. I came out eventually. I was relieved that I was out. I was glad that nana did not call the Fire Brigade or fall in on top of me.
