On Saturday Me Brandon , Keyana, Uncle david and da and dad . Da and dad planned a day to go hotwater beach it took for ever, all of us saw nice American cars  it was fun because every time we went to around the corner we would see new car. Afterwards we played a game called cricket, this is how you play it.  When you see 2 white cars then it starts and you see how many cars you can get before you see a red car then you’re out. My uncle got 35 i got 21 and keyana 20 and Brandon 30, that means uncle won the game.  We were in the coromandel it was high off the ground it looked scary as if we would tip off the end of the road, and it had dodgy corners, so we had to go slow, so we don’t fall off the corner.   We went to the beach for a little while, we had to get some shovels  to dig a hole in the sand, the water was hot when we dug in the ground, so we laid in it, and it was like a bath but we didn’t have to put water in them like a bath, it just came from the ground.  We had a picnic at a different beach, it was not better hotwater beach but we got some pipi”s and mussel’s. Then me and brandon saw an eagle ray in the water, we rode the waves they were big we went back up the hills and saw more nice cars behind us, then we saw a accident, we thought it was a car that had being going fast but it was a bike that had crash over and went it off the road and it looked bad and then we went home the end.

shelford Why should use your knife and fork

Why should we use a knife and fork to eat our dinner?

Have you ever used your hands to eat your dinner?  If you have your hands will get very sticky and if you touch something with them then that will get sticky as well. That’s why it’s good to use a knife and fork.


Cleanliness/Hygiene
Using a knife and fork will keep your hands clean. If you don’t use a knife and fork then germs could get on your food and make you sick because you didn’t wash your hands after playing outside.  If you use a knife and fork you can also cut your food up to make it easier to eat and you won’t have to use your hands to make the food smaller.


Edible Pieces
It’s much easier to cut your food when you have a knife and fork. You can cut food into edible pieces  so you will not choke on it and you don’t end up going to the hospital. Smaller pieces of food are much easier to eat.
Manners
When you use a knife and fork you are showing good manners. Sometimes you need to use your hands to eat some food but first you need to wash your hands. We also use our knife and fork incase someone else wants to try our food and we won’t be sharing germs as well !.




Why should we use a knife and fork to eat ? Because it is good manners to do so and very unhygienic to use your hands because they might be dirty and you also can get sick and probably will end up in hospital but some foods you can use your hands but remember to wash them before you eat and touch  food with your hands.
