THE FLOOD!!!

I wrote a narrative about the flood that happened in Gisborne. Even though it is not finished this I would Like for you to see it.

Dawn was breaking, I ran downstairs and switched on the T.V.

I was about to press the little green button when...

A deafening sound started rattling the windows. I sprinted to the curtains and yanked them open.

When I saw the Appearance I completely forgot about the T.V. Thundering down was a huge downpour, Each drop made the water level rise even more. Making the balls float around the soaking wet lawn lawn like bouys.

Just then I heard a loud crash, My other two triplets Ran out from our room, We decided that we would go investigate the crash we had just heard. 

   That is the end of it for now.I really hoped you enjoyed it and by the way it was made up.

MLH Speeches contest

MLH Speech contest!!!

It is getting closer. So close I could almost smell victory, And when I got in to the judging I was sure they were going to pick me to be in the finals. Then they would give me first, second and third.

Hi, I'm Bridie, And just to say I have been listening to someone say that over and over as soon as speeches got put out there as a challenge. I am not one of those people who Brags and is selfish. I am more one of those people who Celebrates people when they win.

I am so excited for MLH speeches this year. We only got Three weeks to plan, write and practise though, so mine is definitely not the best. What I like to keep in mind is that a lot of people are not comfortable sharing in front of 61 kids and two teachers so I like to cheer them on and make them believe that everyone is there to comfort them when they need help.

I hope that from this if you are getting near speeches when you see someone that has trouble sharing or gets stuck on one thing cheer them on and give them comfort so they believe in themselves to.  

Thanks  for reading.
