Yellow Poem

This term we have been writing a variety of poems.  This week we are writing poems about different colours.

Today we wrote a poem together about the colour yellow.

What is Yellow?

Yellow is sweet nectar collected from flowers.
Yellow is a happy, joyful, smiling face.
Sometimes it's a sunset depending on the light.
Yellow is a frothy, banana milkshake.
Yellow is when daisies spread across the meadow.
It is the delightful taste of butterscotch lollies.
Yellow is lightning flashing in the dark sky.
It could be a cheeky monkey swinging in the trees.
Yellow is proud, no doubt about it
But could you imagine living without it?

St Albans Oaks basketball game

On Thursday the St Albans Oaks played Papanui Power. We lost 15-9.  Jaia scored 1 goal. I think we played well for our first game.
