My Awesome Holiday
This holiday was very awesome. We did a lot of fun things like played sport, learnt how to construct my very own garden and also hang out with my friends.
During the very first week of the holidays I went to my Nana's house in Glenn Innes to go and have a hangi(A Maori feast) . There was not that much people there and that was very cool because there was going to be more for me to eat.
I really enjoyed it there because I had saw my papa and uncle and I hadn't seen them in a very long time. But my aunty was not there because she was at the Auckland hospital due to some unpleasant news. I was really sad when I heard what happened and I really hope that she will get better soon.
Anyway my papa asked me to go put on his gumboots, to go and help my uncles pull up the hangi. So I put on his gumboots and went over and I grabbed a shovel and I just stood there because I didn't know what to do. Then my papa told me to put down the shovel and pick up all the hot burning rags and chuck them on to the fence to cool down. I was really scared because you could see the hot air rising out of the hangi. Then when I grabbed it I dropped it straight away because it was hot. When everything cooled down I grabbed all of the rags chuck them on the fence. I was really eager to finish so I could run my hands underneath some cold fresh water.
But it was really worth it. The food was awesome and in the end I felt happy.

Hi Toko,
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your aunty. I like how you used describing words. Next time when you are proof-reading your work to edit it.
