Weekend Recount

On Thursday I played a game of hockey, We versed the Vikings and won 9-0. On Saturday we went over to Christchurch to watch Shaun play rugby, they lost 54-24 (I think thats the right score). After Shaun's rugby we went out for lunch and we had one of Hamish's friends coming back with us to stay the night. On Sunday I went into town to do West Coast hockey, and good thing it didn't rain while we were training, it rained right after we had finished training. For the first bit of my training mum was at the Rec centre to watch her friends daughter play netball. After hockey we came home and mum fed the calves.

Weekend Recount

In the weekend on Saturday I played a game of leauge, we lost by 2 points but techinacley we won because the ref said held, then not held which gave them the win, and the other ref was from Cobden. In the under 12's we lost that game but I got a try, because of Tylar's amazing chip kick over the other players then I dived and got the try. In the under 12's game one of the Cobden players randomly bowled me over, (I think there should have been some penalty there). When Hamish played his game of leauge he got his first try in 5 years. Dad was over in Christchurch to watch Shaun, and they smashed the other team.

On Sunday I had a hockey trial for the West Coast B team, there was 7 people there so Im pretty sure we all might of got into the team. At the trial we just did some drills and passing.

Before I went to my hockey trial Hamish and I played on the Wii.We didnt really do anything else in the weekend.

Hockey Recount

On Wensday our class went to a hockey tourtament. There were 4 different pools, both of the lake brunner teams were in different pools. In the tourtament the team I was in, which was the lakebrunner reds came 6th out of 8, but we had to verse the much harder teams that had lots of people who played west coast hockey. The Lake Brunner Blues came 2nd out of 8. It was good that we were aloud to go to that hockey tourtament and it was a good experience for the people who had never played hockey before. Some of the not so good things was that the wind kept in blowing and it had a cold breeze, but it was still all right to play in. It was good also that we had enough transport to go there. I think that it was great and we should enter the tourtament next time they have one because there will be other people and I think they will enjoy it to.

After that we didn't really do much and that was my weekend.

Demon  Dentist  book  review

Demon Dentist by David Walliams is a book about a young brave boy called Alfie who has never been to the dentist and has disgusting rotten teeth. He lives in a small town with his dad. One day when Alfie goes to school the new dentist comes to visit. Alfie and his friend Gabz notice something suspicious about the new dentist Miss Root. Alfie and Gabz find out someone is taking teeth from underneath childrens pillows at night. The children are expecting a pleasant present from the tooth fairy but find ghastly things instead.

Demon Dentist is a great intriguing book that will make you want to keep reading until the end.

Demon Dentist is a great book with lots of missions and adventures. One of the missions I really like is when Alfie, Raj and Gabz are in Alfie’s room. Alfie puts his tooth underneath his pillow and he finds a moving eyeball. They also have another mission when they find out who is leaving the present’s, read the book to find out more about the missions.

What I like about Demon Dentist is how crazy,funny and controlled.  One of the crazy and funny parts in Demon Dentist is when Winne drives her moped inside the school and up the stairs chasing Alfie because he doesn’t want to go to the dentist (Miss Root). Another crazy part is when Miss Root and her cat jump out of a pot of acid and come out as skeletons.

Demon Dentist is a really intriguing book. One of the intriguing parts in Demon Dentist is about the mysterious person taking the teeth, that children leave and get horrible ghastly presents, it is intriguing because you want to find out who it is.  Another intriguing thing is the title it will make you want to read it because most people are afraid of dentists and this book and reading it will be totally worth it.

Overall I think Demon Dentist is a great book and will leave you on the edge of your seat.

I think Demon Dentist is suitable for all ages and people who like fun adventuros books. If you like Demon Dentist you should probably read his other books here's a link to the website with more of David Walliams amazing books LINK.

Weekend Recount

On Friday my hockey game was canceled due to the weather and I got my hair cut a bit shorter. On Saturday we went over to Christchurch and watched my brother play a game of rugby, Shaun's team won and we went out for lunch after Shaun's game. My leauge game got canceled I was kind of glad because I wasn't going to be there but that means I still get to play next week. On Sunday we didn't really do much but we moved the cows down the road and Hamish and I played lots of games of ping pong. We found out for the school holidays we are going to have a lot of family and friends visit in the middle week. We also might be going up to Westport for a bit of a holiday.
