first we got some wooden board and glued new paper to it. then we painted them different colours,
i chose Yellow, Maroon, Mint green, Peach and orange. we then took a picture of ourselves and printed them. after that we coloured the back of it with black pastel. after that we traced it with sharp pencils. 

then we painted the outlines with black paint witch made our awesome paintings. then we painted white backrounds but left shapes like diamonds, squares, cubes etc:

 

Lucy and ben

 Lucy & Ben

 One day in Scotland there was a girl named Lucy. Lucy was 3 years old and had blonde curly hair. One sunny Saturday her family went on a walk in the Highlands. It was really rocky and grassy there.

 As she was walking she stumbled across a Scottish highland cow. Her dad said she can hug it because they are known to be friendly. Lucy fell in love with him so she decided to name him Ben.

 Every day after school she would go to the highlands and feed Ben carrots and sugar beets. She would wonder why Ben couldn’t find the food. She then realized his hair was blocking his eyes. 

The next day Lucy asked her dad to buy her clippers. As soon as Lucy arrived home from school her dad went with her to Ben. They gave ben a fringe so he can see. Ben thanked Lucy by licking her.

8 years later…

Lucy’s family was moving to New Zealand. When Lucy was told, she was devastated because she didn’t know how to take Ben. She looked in her bank account for money to get ben shipped to New Zealand with her. Lucy had just enough money. Lucy and her dad went to court to ask for the ownership of max. They succeeded and flew to New Zealand.

My Journey

 My journey to Australia to see my mum

It started in 2019 when my aunt was pregnant and my nan needed to be there with her. But the only problem was that my nan was in New Zealand with me and my aunty was in Aussie. I asked my nan to secretly book me a flight with my savings with her but to go to another part of Aussie to see my mum as well. It was now time to go to the airport I had my luggage ready and I had my iPad so I could listen to music. We got on the plane and I was lucky enough to be next to the window.

 3 hours later we were descending on to the runway in the Gold Coast. We met my aunty outside the airport. I was so excited to see her I gave her a big hug and we drove back to her apartment. I played with her dog Charlie, he loved licking me. At night we drove back to the airport to drop me off so I could go to Perth by myself. We were disappointed to hear that I was underage. So we drove back home to book new flights. When we got home I went straight to sleep because I had to wake up at four in the morning and my flight was at six o’clock.

 At the airport, I kissed my nan and aunty goodbye and headed to my terminal. I met the kindest crew members who let me sit behind the pilot. We touched down at Perth at midnight. One of the crew members walked me out.

My other aunty who lived in Perth picked me up from the airport. We drove to my mum’s house and she started crying when she saw me at the door. I gave her a huge hug and then went inside to surprise my brother and sister. My brother was ecstatic when he saw me my sister yelled my name and gave me a hug as well.

I ended up staying with my mum for two weeks and it was probably the best two weeks I’ve had in my life. It was a Saturday I’m pretty sure when I had to go to the airport because it was time to go back to the Gold Coast. When it was time for me to board my plane I started getting emotional.

 When I walked on the plane i got to sit next to the pilot again but when we were at cruising altitude i had to go to my seat because i needed to sleep.  Tara, who is one of the crew members put me in my normal seat. Tara came back to wake me up just as we were about to land in Brisbane.

 I was picked up by my nan because my aunty was in the hospital with my newborn cousin whose name is meia. A few days later I and my nan left to go back to NZ. When we got back it was really cold because it was winter. My journey was very interesting I went through ups and downs but overall it was worth it.
