This week our task for R.E was to study a saint. My saint to study was Saint Peter Chanel. I learnt where he was canonised and who canonised him. I also learnt what canonisation was. I really enjoyed this task because I learn lots about saints. Do you know who Saint Peter Chanel is?
We are a year 7 & 8 class from Pompallier Catholic School. My teacher is Whaea Danni.

Outdoor Fun
During the first week of the holidays I had my 13th birthday.
Me and
my family planned to go spend the day over the coast diving,
fishing and spending time together. When we arrived at my nan's
house we geared up all our stuff onto the motorbikes because
the truck wouldn't make it up the maunga.
When we got over the hill me,
my dad and cousin grabbed the fishing rods and walked
over to the ledge of the rocks.
30 minutes later my dad got two big snappers, and sadly
I got nothing.
After 1 hour of fishing my dad and I geared up and went
for a kina and
paua dive. While my dad and I were in the water my mum,
aunty and cousin
were roasting marshmallows and cooking food for our dinner
since it was
5:00pm. After a long burning day in the sun we make our long
journey back
to nans. We got back to our house at 8:20pm, and as soon
as we walked in
the house we all sat on the couch and rested.
On a wet dark Friday morning me and my family all went up
to the Great
Expedition fishing competition for the weekend.
As we drove into the area we see
heaps of cars, trucks and motorbikes all over the grassy field.
After being
told the rules of the competition we headed out to the
beach, little did we
know the sea was roaring and rough. We fished from
5:00pm to 1:00am.
When we left to go up to the prize giving there was a
huge line of cars and
trucks. It took 15 minutes to get through to the grounds.
Prize giving took
5 hours due to the amount of prizes and people there.
I really enjoyed my holidays.
