Labour Weekend Recount Writing!
We are working hard to make our stories more interesting by adding more detail and some 'wow' words that will 'capture the reader'. How do you think we are going?
My
Weekend
In
the amazing awesome Labour weekend I went to the park. I saw Leila and also my other friend. I went with my brother Lucan and my brother
Cohen and I came with my Dad.
First
I played with my friend’s puppy. We took
the puppy for a walk. I played on the
swings. It was fun because my Dad swung
me high.
After
that we left and we walked home and we ate dinner. It was a fun Labour weekend. My fun weekend
was just what I wanted!
Then
I went to bed. I felt so terrific that I
went to the park, only that it was a bit dark.
My
favourite was when I played with my friend’s dog. It was cute.
I like dogs because they are fluffy.

Labour
Weekend
A
windy, sunny, watery, playful weekend.
First
I went to an Asian shop. We were looking
for a medicine for my grandad.
Next
we went to Brighton. This is what we
did. We went to the park. We went up some steep stairs to go down a
long, slippery slide. We also had lunch
– it was sushi, a pear and feijoa drink.
We also played on the circle, black, two-person chair.
Next
we went to the beach. We didn’t have to
go far because the beach is connected to the park. I found heaps of shells.
Then
we went home. When we got home Tahlia
and I had an ice-block.
I
like my weekend because I have not been to Brighton beach for ages.

train.
First
I drove to amazing Toyworld. That was
where I got the train.
I
watched a movie called ‘Wall E’.
My
track goes around the wheelbarrow, then around the baseball bat, then around
the big shell, then to the stairs. I did
it with Sam. I had a wheat grass drink.

Yay! It is amazing, fantastic, wonderful Labour
weekend. My family and me went to
Woodhaugh gardens.
First we had a
walk. My Mum tricked us that a lion was
here but there was no gold maned lion.
So when my brother heard about it, he threw rocks at stuff just to
pretend. We took our dog because we do
not normally take her.
Next, we went to
the park at the Woodhaugh gardens with the whole family.
Then my Mum asked,
“do you want to go on the flying fox or in the pool?” and Emily and me said
“the pool!” So we went in the cold pool.
Lastly when we were
in the pool we had a water fight with Aiden and we got soggy and so wet that we
had to change our wet and sooooo soggy clothes to dry clothes.
I liked going to
Woodhaugh gardens because we got to go in the cold pool.

called Labour Day.
First my family and
I went to Portobello to have a picnic.
We had chips, sandwiches, and yummy raspberry buns. They were yum, yum, yummy.
Next I played
catches with Jack, Harry, Mummy and Daddy.
Mummy caught me lots of times.
Then we drove back
to our house and we stopped at the ice-cream shop. I got a boysenberry ice cream.
After that we were finally
home and we watched ‘Lego Friends’ and ‘Dinosaur Train.’ Lego Friends was about when it was
Stephanie’s surprise birthday party.
The next day, on
Monday, we decided that we would go to Moana Pool. Daddy, Jack and I went on the fast, zooming hydro
slide. We saw Kiana and her family so we
all went on the hydro slide. I raced my
Dad and Jack. I went on the hydro slide
with Kiana. We went by ourselves even
though Kiana is only four.
Later on we decided
to get out of the hydro slide. Dad said,
“We will come back,” we said “ok Dad.”
Then we had a race in the big water slide. I won the race!
Next we went back
on the hydro slide, Kiana and I still won the races.
Lastly all of us
went back to see Mummy and Harry in the learners pool. There was another big water slide. I went on it lots of times.
I loved my long
weekend because I got to have a picnic and I got to go on the amazing hydro
slide.

Sweet, we got an
extra day for the weekend.

Alex from 7pm till 9pm. We were going to
Grandma’s and Grandad’s.
The day after that,
we fed the dogs with Grandad. We fed
them biscuits and meat and Grandad ate one of the biscuits.
When we were coming
back I had a triathlon but no swim. I
was really fast because I got a medal – I came 3rd.
Once we were back
we went to the butterflies and heaps of them landed on me.
I felt proud of
myself because I came 3rd in my triathlon.

My Weekend
In the long weekend
my bedroom was moved into the spare room.
First Aimee needed
a space for work so Aimee used my bedroom.
Then we went to the
farm to meet some people to buy the farm.
Those people said it was too small for their horse.
After that we went
home to see my new bed. It had a
stretcher bed under my bed. My bed is
pink.
Later on a desk
came. I didn’t know what it was yet, but
when it was built I saw it was a desk. I
love it!
After that, we went
out for tea and we had seven things. I
had noodles with spaghetti and meatballs and some chips. Then I had an ice cream sundae.
I liked my weekend

Hooray, we get a
free day off school, it is called Labour Day.
In the extra holiday my family drove to Fern Gully.
First we hiked up
and up and up! On the way we crossed a
bridge, I pretended to be big Billy goat gruff.
Then we had a yummy
packet of biscuits and then we were off again.
Next we hiked down
the hill. That was quicker than going
up.
Finally we are at the
bottom of the hill.
Last we played at
the park, it was at the bottom of the hill.
At the park I went up and down on the swinging swing.
After that I went
down the pole.
I felt very proud
of myself because I walked up the hill.

to find the mayor and then find Planting Pete.
Then we had the

pancakes. We put chocolate buttons in
them.

My Weekend
Guess what? I got an extra day off in the weekend. Oh it was so fun.
My neighbours came
over for tea and dessert and my friends came too. All there was were boys. I asked Gracie, my big sister, if I could
play with her but she said “No!” So I
asked Leo, my little brother, if I could play with him but he said “No!” So I went into the shed and pretended to make
some soup.
One day later Rewa
came over. We watched a movie, we played
Mum’s and Dad’s, we played musical statues and we played lots more games.
The next day we
went to the museum. It was Josephine the
trains’ party. Don’t worry, she’s just
pretend. There was a big, big, big, big
caterpillar and we went though it.
“Ouch! My hip, I cut my hip while
I was going down the hill inside the caterpillar.”
We were allowed to
get our face painted and get a balloon but while we were lining up in the line
a lady came who owned the museum. She
was curling her hair. She said, “Where
are your parents?” We said, “Right
there.” “The one with the cap on, the
one with the bow?” “No, they are around
the corner.” “Oh sorry” she said, “the
face painters are going home now.” We
went, very sad, back to Mum and Dad so Dad painted our faces at home.
The next day we got
some lollies for Halloween. I picked
some jaffas, Gracie picked lollipops, Leo picked jaffas like me and Ollie
picked lollipops like Gracie. Mum and
Dad got some different lollies, some candy corn and lots of other lollies too.
I liked my weekend
because Mum and Dad took us to fun places.

In my awesome
Labour weekend I had a fun time.
First I went with
Dad to Jacob’s Ladder. We walked up lots
of stairs.
Next we took Doogie
for a walk on the beach.
Then my family and
my next-door neighbours went out for dinner.
For dinner we had some chips and salad and two ice chocolates.
Last Mia, Harry,
Luca and me went across the road and to the park. At the park we played on the grass.
Lastly we thought
to make a mixture of games. The games
that we played were hide and seek, rugby, dodge ball and octopus fall.
I felt good because
I got to go out for dinner.
