Homework-Happy 90th Jean

Jean our awesome librarian, at our school, is turning 90. Most 90 year olds have retired and many will be in retirement homes but not our Jean. She is amazing! She comes in to school extremely early every day. I see her walk to school.You would not think Jean is 90. 

In honour of Jean turning 90 our school put on a special birthday party. When I was walking around my school I could see heaps of teachers putting up ribbons and laying down an extra, extra, long red carpet. 

When I was in our school office, the office was packed, in fact we were squashed in like a can of sardines with people wanting to give Jean flowers. One person stayed up to one am in the in the morning putting a beautiful bunch of flowers together.

The whole school was sitting up on the grand stand waiting for Jean to come in, then she comes in on an extremely old car ( after she drove around in her all around town)

One girl in my class was so lucky. It was her birthday on the exact same day as Jean's birthday so she got to ride in the old vintage car. With a police in front of her, how more lucky can she get. Plus all the year 5/6's were right next door to were she came in near the gutter waving flags.

When she hoped out of her car Jean walked up to a nice chair on the red carpet. David gave a nice speech about her. Two girls that are year 6's gave a speech. Her whole family was sitting near her and they gave a speech, even her son.

My dream has been to be on TV or in an event. Now my dream is a reality because TVNZ Chanel 1 come film Jean as the  good sort of the week for their program. She is even more lucky as she got interviewed by the camera man. She was very shocked when she saw the camera I think.

Wait,wait,wait,wait can she get even more spoilt then this? You would think not but she can because she is Jean. You know  those movies when they have all that flash food and a very tidy room? Well in the staff room they had just that. Two whole tables full of food. Wow I hope someone does this for me when I am 90 years old.

Fireworks

On the news they say go to a public fireworks display.

 It is too dangerous to let fireworks off at home. 

But I mean it is only dangerous if you are silly around them. 

Once my mum told me  about a young boy who  brought fireworks from the 

Wharehouse. 

Some of the fireworks did not light so his mum put them in the bin. 

He got the fireworks back out and                                                   High Speed Chase

tried to relight them. 

He successfully got one to ignite but it burst into flames. 

His hair caught on fire and burnt his face. He is a grown man now but still has scares                              A massive high speed chase between                   police and four people from 

                                                                                                                                                                              this week. They were racing all around. 

                              It went on and on and on and on, but then finally it ended outside the 

Palmerston North Plaza. 

In my opinion it was not the best of places to end because of  the 

large number of  people that were there.

 They were in a lot of danger. Police say that two cars crashed and 

resulted in the end of the chase. Three of them were arrested at the scene             The Plazza was shut down because police thought that they                                                                                                                                                 might be in the plaza they called off the search as they could not find him. A few days later they 

found him in Feilding then arrested him. He is now awaiting trial.                     

on his face from those burns. But was he being silly or not? Yes he was being silly. 

If you are no

t silly around fireworks then you do not need go to a show.  

I think that either way you are still 

going to get pretty cool fireworks display. I like shows as 

much as home fireworks. 

I was doing fireworks with my friend  and his mum. 

It was so much fun. We took at least 4 steps back incase one

 of the fireworks miss fired. Y

Tis helped us to stay safe.

My favourite firework was the fire work that had heaps of

 sparks and crackles. It felt like we were on top of the clouds watching a 

firework display. 

SPEEDERS :+(.  not good.

I do not like speeders that race up and down the street pushing their poor cars to the limit. Have you 

ever smelt the terrible smell of their cars fumes?

 If you haven't then watch out it  is terrible. 

One time I was walking across the road with my friend Cam,  

we saw two cars all the way back at the end of a long street. We thought we would be safe crossing the road 

but we were wrong. It only took them about three seconds to get the end of the street where me and my friend were.

 They did not even slow down for me and my friend. 

That speeder nearly hit me. Where are the police when you need them? Leave speeding to the pros and 

if you really want to speed take it down to a racing track for example Manfield  Race Track.

The plants were just amazing one day they were looking very good then three days latter they are all just about dead. When we had gone for a walk we thought about watering times we thought about it then we we said in the morning because it would be colder, the Water would last longer. Then we thought again if we watered it in the middle of the day it would burn the roots so we have decided that we will water it in the morning
