These are the gifts that God has given to me and how I use it.

Cathedral Trip - Writing

On a beautiful sunny day St Pius X School got an opportunity to go to a beautiful place called “ St Patrick’s Cathedral”. We drove to the Cathedral by bus. It was our first time going there. The reason why we went was because this year is the year of mercy.

Once we arrived at our destination we had to walk over to the Door of mercy which was at the other side of the big massive building. While we were walking we saw these really big buildings that were surrounding us. We had to wait a few minutes for the Parish Members to get ready for the mass. Then we entered the door of mercy with our soul friends. We got inside and had to dip our finger in the blessing water and and blessed us. We were seated in the front.

After 5 - 10 minutes we started our Mass. Father welcomed us and thanked us for coming before the mass started. Once he finished welcoming us we began our mass. Firstly a Guy came and read a reading. Then Father read his reading. After the readings we had the eucharists. We sang “ Bread Broken ” for the eucharists. When we sang that the other people went and got the bread and the Wine.

Then it was our turn to go and get our communion. At last we ended of with the sign of the cross. After we finished we took a whole school photo. Mrs tui and Viliami Aunty took our photos. Then we sat down and Fr Larry was talking about the church. After Fr Larry talked about the church we had Lunch at this place next to the Cathedral. We ate for like 15 mins while we were waiting for the bus then I and my friends played a game.

Finally we walked back to the bus and left the city and went back to school. It was an fun and happy day. I hope to go back there again.

Holy Spirit

This is about how the Holy Spirit works on me and others, also a prayer for the Holy Spirit to help me.

Science Raodshow

Room 7 and Room 5 went to Tamaki College to a Science Roadshow. The show was in the Tamaki Auditorium.  Parents helped with the transport. I went with Malia's mum.

The things I saw in the Auditorium was stations with scientific things on it. I firstly went to the Body parts where it’s like a puzzle and you have to fix it. In that station I leant how to place body parts correctly. My best station was the Changing Pendulum because  I got adjust it how fast and slow it can go. It was amazing. I also loved the colour words because it was funny when I said it and I got mistakes.

At the end they presented to us a presentation about Sounds. The first one was fast and pretty loud it gave me and Sammy a fright. The second experience was in a glass Jar with a balloon in it. When it popped we didn’t ever hear a loud sound all we heard was the glass sound. Finally it was time to go back. I went back in the same ride to School.

Letter to Author - Holiday Post

Dear Crystal Hubbard,

My name is Caroline, I live in Auckland, New Zealand.  I am 11 years old and go to a school called St Pius X Catholic School.

I am writing this letter because I wanted you to know what I think about your book..

I have been reading your book about Catching the Moon.  If I was to rate your book it would be a 5/5 because it's a true story not only a true story but it is also interesting and amazing.  What really interested me was how the boys in her team teased her by calling her names and teasing her. But at the end they Knew how great and awesome she was, so they wanted her in their team, because she could run and hit home runs.

I found your book very inspirational and fun to read. It was amazing because Marcenia had a big dream that she wanted to Base Ball player.
