"What is Respect?"



Respect is ...
Respect is like a golden waterfall blowing the manners out. It feels like polite, kind, caring and considerate.
It sounds like pretty flowing voices in my ears. I use my manners everywhere like please and thank you, pardon me and good words too.
Phoebe

Respect means to me is when I show very good manners, by saying thank you and please or by being a good friend.
I can share my manners here and there, and probably everywhere. They flash out of my mouth as calm as the bright blue sea.

Our Great School Auction and Gala


Wow! On Sunday 27th of March 2011 it was the great Brightwater School Auction and Gala. There were so many tings to do!
Up the back there was a bouncy slide, Mechanical bull and this bungy rope thing that was made out of black tyre tubes that were tied together. I saw some of my friends there. Lucy and Milly where watching me when I went on the terrifying Mechanical Bull. When I first went on it I was literally shaking, BOOM, then it started moving up and down, up and down. It was like a real bull but much slower.
Then I went on the black bungy rope! It was much easier than the Mechanical bull. What you had to do is, you had to get inside the hoop on the bungy rope. Second you had to get a run up from the goal post and at the end there was a cone with a fizzy drink on the top. You had to knock down the fizzy drink three times. I got them down three times and I won an ami drink bottle.
After I went to the candyfloss and lucky dip stand and I bought one bag of candyfloss and two lucky dips. The candyfloss was as puffy as a cloud. In the lucky dip there was a lolly pop, lolly bracelet , one silly band and tattoos.
It was the best day ever.
