My Bunnies Journey

My Bunnies Journey

Normally, people get their bunnies/Rabbits from pet shops, or sometimes private breeders. But We got my bunny a whole different way. It started off when I looked out of my window, and looked down at my two does. Flash! It was too quick for me to see properly, and I wasn't really unnerved by it. But even though I needed to check if my bunnies were safe, so I went down to check on them. Everything seemed normal, Apart from the fact that Patch, my white dominant bunny, was moving so fast I could barely see. She was after something, but I couldn't tell what.
It looked brown at first, but then it seemed more ginger. But whatever Patch was after, It was unsettling her so I needed to get It out. I opened the hutch that she shared with her sister, Pepper, to see if it had taken any food or water. I looked down. Flash! The ball of ginger darted through my legs. I just closed my legs in time for Patch to nearly run full speed into them! Graceful, I thought.
I still didn't quite know what Patch was chasing, but it was the same size as her, and as fast, too. I opened the top of the hutch. Nothing. Then, Huddled in the back of their bed, was a skinny, terrified lop. I immediately felt pity for the poor rabbit, and took it back up to our house. I considered letting it go wild, but if it had escaped from someone's backyard, then I wasn't going to leave it for the dogs.
You should have seen the look on my mums face when I brought the terrified bunny up! It was a mixture of "Where did you get THAT?", and "Im practicing my double chin"! We started putting posters up, and asking everyone we knew if they had lost a brown nosed ginger lop. Nobody. We eventually bought a hutch for him (Yes, I checked), and when we got up back to the house, we had a message left on the phone.
"Hello, Yes, Is this the right number? I do believe you have my neighbours sons rabbit. Rockstar, I believe. He often escapes onto my lawn to eat the only grass, and has no running room or company. If it was me who came to you before them, then you might be able to keep him, as I don't know if I approve of their caring methods for him. You can meet them at house _ _ on ____ _____ Rd the left driveway with the red letterbox.
The message ended.
 In the morning, we drove down the road to the red-letterbox-house. I stayed in the car, but my mum went out. They weren't home, luckily. There were cans of coca cola and sprite everywhere. It looked like they have had a party. She also saw his hutch, which was broken down and abandoned. So that was it, he was staying with us. 

Of course There was a lot more things included in this, but I couldn't include it all.
Also: We named him PJ

FRENCH !!!!

French

LI: To be able to know your basic words fluently.

Before French:

What I love about french is that you can learn to say things like "Hello"! and "Hi"! It is a few minutes form morning tea, and after that we go straight to french. Me and my friends who are in french always try to get the front seats so we have to rush in quickly!

After French: 

We learnt how to have a debait about junk food! Interesting, yes. It kind of went like this:

Hello _______
Im Hungry                                                                      
Do you want to go to mac donalds?
No! I don't like Mac donalds!
What about Burger king then?
Image result for french flagNo! I don't like Buger king either!
What about Pizza hut?
No! I don't like Pizza Hut either!
Oh Goodness! You choose then!
I like subway
Ok then, Lets go!
We learnt how to say that in french! I may have forgotten a bit though....
Normally at the end we get bonbons, but this time we didn't. People were going "Awwwwwwwww!" and stuff, But you can't expect a lolly every time! We should be grateful that we get bonbons (French for lollies/sweets) At all! I don't think everyone else thought of it like that though unfoutnately.

Piano lessons

Piano lessons!

I have been doing piano lessons at this school since I was six years old. The thing I love about it Is just how you can do about anything with the instrument. You can play your own song, or just strum out random notes. You can go really loud or really soft or just play in the middle. 

What are some of the piano notes?

Well, like most instruments, there are 8 notes. A, B, C, D, E, F and G. Eight notes, makes and octave. An octave is like a series of 8 notes with all of the notes in it. Going loud and soft is called Dynamics and going really fast and jumpy is called staccato. (I don't know if I am spelling it right! St-car-to) 

What are some of my songs i played at assembly?

1. Fandango
2. Can can
3. Blue scales
4. Malegenua
Light and blue is a song I am learning now. Not including fandango I think it might be my best song so far!

The reasoning for this post is because I often get pulled out of things to go. I decided It was about time I made a post about it, Right?

Peer Mediation / Saint doms chat

Peer Mediation!!!

Today (Before Morning tea on the 4th of march) We were called in to the hall to talk about mediation, how they work and what our job is. At the end me and Lara were buddies- For the whole year! (Lily was litirally ready to kill me!!!) We also got into groups and talked about what mediation means. We were told examples of problems and we were talked through by Ms Coles of how to solve them. Examples of things she taught us about:

* If it involves any violence we were told to just go and get a duty teacher.

* You need to ask wether they want you to help them or not.

* That you Help them solve the problem, not just you by yourself.

* That you need to introduce yourself, Explain the rules, and slowly help them with their problem.

Next week we are going to be out on the playground! Im so exited. I feel like that session with Ms Coles really covered a lot of the things we need to know to be a peer meditor.

On the same day as peer mediation, the yr six girls got taken into the music room for our saint doms chat. They talked to us about their school, and even better! Stella A and Mackenzie from 2018 were there, talking about their school. They did SOOOO many sports, apparently.
*Water polo
*Netball
*Soccer
So many more! The only reason I included water polo is because it stood out in the school book thingie against all of the other sports. Their isn't much to include about the saint doms chat, just that Mackenzie and Stella were there.
