Our visit to The Good Shepherd Home

Our class went on an outing to The Good Shepherd Home.
To me it was like a mission because we all had something very hard to manage.
We had a very nice time and I performed a song called on the Good Ship Lollipop sung by Sherlie Temple.
After that we all went around to people giving them gifts and telling them about our selves and what we do at Christmas.
I loved going to The Good Shepherd Home and having the chance to perform.
I felt proud to be part of the the Townsville Grammar Junior School

Haiku poetry

I have been recently writing and learning about Haiku Poetry. Haiku poetry is from the Japanese culture. Using words, you need to paint a picture and I have tried my best to write this Haiku poem on tap dancing. I have used onomatopoeia in my writing of this poem. The syllables for Haiku poetry have five syllables in the first line, seven syllables in the second line and another five syllables in the third line.

TAP DANCING

Tap, tap, tap goes me.
"Good, good, good" says my teacher
Tap, goes me again.
