Wonderful Creatures - By Yesha

In New Zealand, they have many astonishing animals. One of the most special animals was the kiwi bird. A kiwi is a bird that doesn't have any wings and can not fly. The Author the Harry Potter books called " J.K Rowling " had written a new book about curious or incredible creatures called the " Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them ".

If I have a beast I will call her " Evil Moonlight ", because she is evil and at night her spectacular fur shines like the moon. Evil Moonlight has white smooth fur that glows in the dark, sharp white teeth, evil devil wings, shiny red eyes and dark black magic. Evil Moonlight will look like a beautiful beast girl. She smells like cotton candy. She sounds like she is bored and roars like a tiger.

Auckland is a extensive place to live with lots of amazing estates, beautiful waterways, gardens ( Botanical Garden and dazzling scenery for everyone to enjoy. It is also a hustling, vibrant city with many galleries, cafes, theatre and museum to visit. I feel happy to call Auckland my ‘hometown’ with my family, because I have lots of friendly friends.

The Meaning Behind Christmas Decorations - By Yesha


Learning Intention: We are learning the meanings of some Christmas decorations.
Success Criteria: I am successful when I can read and understand the meanings behind of some Christmas Decorations.

(Wreath) Just as there is no end to the wreath, God's love never ends.
(Christmas Tree) Evergreen trees stay green all year. They remind us that we can live forever with Jesus.
(Candy Cane) The candy cane is like the shapes of a shepherd's staff. A shepherd uses his staff to guide his sheep. The candy cane reminds us that Jesus is our guide as we follow Him.
(Lights and Stars) The lights and stars reminds us of the star the wise men followed to find Jesus. In the Bible, Jesus called Himself, " The light of the world."
(Gifts) Gifts remind us of the greatest gift ever given - God's gift of His Son, Jesus. Gifts also can remind us of the presents the wise men gave Jesus.
(Pointed Holly Leaves) The pointed holly leaves remind us of the crown of thorns Jesus wore as He hung on the cross. The red berries reminds us of His blood.
(Bell) Each sheep in a shepherd's  fold wore a bell so the shepherd could tell where it was, if the sheep wandered off. The bells remind us Jesus knows where we are and wants to save us.
