Otaki Forks

We went to Otaki Forks and we played in the river and did other stuff, like go over the bridge.

I tried to skip them. I did not do that. I used round stones for that.

Chooky the chick

At Tawa Montessori Preschool a chook called Chooky ran away. It is now 5 weeks old. It ran under the fence. One of my the teachers saved it. Chooky ran away and we don’t want it to do that again. It is always lonely and always lost. It has three brothers and sisters. It tries to find his mother. His brothers and sisters keep on pushing him back because it is younger that its brothers and sisters. It is smaller then the others.
