Strange Times 

Going to school

Makes me very cool 

Learning new stuff

Is never enough 

I will do my best

I won’t give any less

Writing my work must be neat

It is such a pleasure to complete

Maths and sums are such a bore

But it just keeps on getting more

Having a best friend 

Makes my heart feel good at the end 

Playing outside 

Where no one ever hides 

Eating my lunch

You can hear me munch 

Doing Jump Jam is so much fun 

It is for everyone 

Hearing the bell ring at the end of the day

Makes me wish that I can stay

But now we are stuck at home

With no teacher, so alone

But mum jumped in to teach

Now life is a peach

Having her help me

Makes me want to be more of an amazing me

But still doing maths is such a bore

I want to close my door

Baking stuff everyday

Makes the missing go away

Playing games here and there

Where’s my card? Where where where?

Not going out is strange

But I have many toys,  quite a range

Readings my books at night

Makes me dream that I am a knight

I do miss my friends

Luckily Virtual meetings never ends

I wonder when school will start

I think I’m getting really smart

Wash your hands often, stay clean

You know what I mean

But for now I will stay home and I’ll stay safe

So that Corona virus will not make a wave.

My new skill is , How to bake cupcakes 🐩🐎🐺🐬

Letter about lock down 😍😊🐆🐕🐴🐎🐼🐩🐺💕🐬

To Teacher I love the lockdown because I get to spend time with my family . I like being at home, but it is sad because I can’t spend time with my friends, but my mum and dad had so many activities planned for us, so it made up for me not seeing my friends. We baked a lot. We baked a delicious chocolate cake and it was so much fun. Me and my two sisters had a sausage sizzle for my dad and mum. My dad showed us how to start the fire by ourselves. We also barbequed the sausages by ourself. Dad and mum were so proud of us. Some days we played outside till dawn. Some day we played some Uno, Jenga, Rammi, Pictionary and some awesome puzzles. I was looking forward to seeing the Easter Bunny the whole time. But the PM said that the Easter Bunny might not come to everyone's houses. I felt sad. But on Friday morning the 10th of April, mum helped me, Mienke and Lianka get dressed as little Easter Bunnies. We looked so cute. Mum even drawed a little nose and whiskers on our face. Suddenly Mienke spotted easter eggs through mum’s bedroom window, and me,Lianka and mum were surprised. We quickly got our Easter bags and ran outside. The hunting was so much fun. There were eggs everywhere. It was so much fun. I even got to make my special chocolate nest with mini chocolate eggs recipe. Everybody loves my chocolate nests. Being with my family is best. I haven’t been on technology during the holidays. Just some movies when it was raining. I have been playing a lot and I enjoyed reading my chapter book, The Thea Stilton and the journey to Atlantis. When I did get a chance to watch movies, I really enjoyed Frozen 2 and the Abominable. Being at home all the time is so much fun because we bbq a lot, even during the week.
