We might be worried about missing our favourite show on this big black box; other people are worried about losing their child in war or about their house being bombed. 

Some kids don’t even get the opportunity to go to school and have an education which really doesn’t give them a go at having a LIFE!Some children do get to go but have to get up when the sun rises and trek out to the unknown for 3 hours until they get to school and then their brains don’t grasp the opportunity because they haven’t eaten in the morning and they can’t use this opportunity in life.They also need education for a JOB! You need a job to succeed in life and to start a family and live a happy, healthy life!Education is important for the students as they will all go through a lot of obstacles through their lives. And it’s very important that even though are not the most fortunate people in this world, that they appreciate what they already have. 

And you probably don’t even think of these poor, poor people that are not as lucky as you to have this wonderful opportunity. It also helps you get a grip on life. It helps you to understand life and understand that life isn’t a simple, smooth ride, life does have its up and downs and school helps you learn about these situations so that you will be prepared when it happens to you! 

They even have to face not having a safe home. Some have had terrible tragedies hit them such as; their Mum and Dad died in a Bombing and you have to live with your Grandma that has a hard enough problems with looking after her.

Their lives can be helped just by you!

This week is Anti-Poverty Week from the 12th-18th October 2008. We are also doing a campaign called Blog Action Day. On the 15th October people with a blog write about poverty to raise awarness about it. The Blog Action Day started over 2 years ago and is trying to raise concern about really important issues that are affecting our world TODAY. This year they are trying to get people to be aware about poverty and to get people to actually do something about the problem.

With your support hopefully in a couple of years poverty will be a thing of the past. And we can all live happily together since we all deserve a happy life. So please, give all your support and help STOP poverty FOREVER! Leave a comment to show your wonderful support.

Wer’e all in this together!

        

 

Ready, Set, GO! The competitors shot of like a thousand bullets through a cloud of blue water. Mario, Yoshi and Shadow were head to head at the most anticipated event of history in
China. 

The pool wasn’t just an ordinary swimming pool now instead of water it was more filled with determination and pride. The amazing ability was gob-smacking, these Olympians had trained for 4 years and they were now showing there country that they picked the right person to make them proud. 

Yoshi was in the lead of the 100 lap race. 100 laps! Many people thought that NOBODY could ever accomplish that but Yoshi wanted to prove people wrong.

The quiet, foggy and dirty clouds got darker as each puff of smoke forced it’s way out of the branch-like chimney.

I found myself hanging helplessely and swaying like a bunch of trees in a raging windstorm.

Tumbling through the dirty, polluted clouds my ship suddenly falls and I find myself in the unknown.

These are my sentences, What do you think? If you have an opinion please leave a comment!!!

Animal Cruelty 

Animal Cruelty is when people or things abuse an animal for no purpose, usually just self-entertainment. Some forms of abuse could be killing the animal or just wounding it but which of both are cruel and harmful. People often show Cruelty to animals for money. Some people skin animals and then leave the body on the ground and go sell the fur for money. But they only do this to become rich and wealthy not for the wellbeing of the animal. 

This makes me ashamed and upset. Ashamed because these people could get entertainment out of animals many other ways. By being nice and caring to animals you would get more entertainment then bashing them and abusing them. The affect Animal Cruelty has on our earth is disastrous to nature. By Animal Cruelty most of our animals are becoming endangered and some even extinct which has a huge impact on us. Whales are being killed for food in
Japan. If
Japan would stop killing these poor animals we would have enough left. 

We can help by being nice to animals and enjoy being in their presence. Making animals happy would simply make you happy too!I think that Animal Cruelty is cruel and ha

When we got there we went to our campsite called Rathane. Then we went to the hall and we we’re told  what number cabin we we’re in and who we we’re with. I was in cabin 15 with Julia, Carmen, Nancy and me.

Then, We went to our cabin and unpacked before the bell rung and we did our first….ACTIVITY! My first activity was the River Ride.

For the River ride we had to wear clothes that can get wet and shoes that can also get wet.We met up in the courtyard and found our instructors. Our instructors were Angelo, Rachael, Tim Tam and Earl.

We boarded  the boat and of we WENT! When we started i got a little sared becaus the boat was shaking but then i got used to it. On the way the instructors explained to us that the river had things called JellyBlubbers that we could pick up and hold. I was to short to pick up the JellyB (for short) so i asked the teacher to do it for me. When i got one they were sooooo slippery and  slimy! 

I write more in another post because if i kep on witing this will go on forever and ever!

There is no pictures of the River Ride but there is of camp altogether!

Yesterday everyone in my class had to choose an endangered animal and find out information about them on the computer. My animal was the Red wolf.

General description: The Red wolf is classified as a member of the order Carnivores and is a member of the family Canidae. The red wolf is classified as a dangerous species due to the estimation that its population consists of less than 50 mature red wolves.

Weight: 40 to 80 pounds.

Length: 4.5 to 5.5 feet long.

Gestation period:   six months to nine

months.

Baby facts: Are usually only 50 centimetres when born.

Past and present population:40 thousand (past) 249 (now)

Diet: Red wolves prefer to eat white tailed deer and Raccoon,but will eat any available small animals.

Behaviour: Mostly aggressive but when in captivity and tamed may be nice.

The endandered problem: Habitat being destroyed , being killed for fur and Red wolves mating with Coyotes so their not full breed.

Habitat:Forests,Wetlands,Mountains and Coastal areas.
