The Photo

It’s Saturday,
I’m so happy,
Gonna get up,
Gonna get myself ready.

It’s a big day
I’m gonna walk down that aisle
Holding some flowers
Being the best flowergirl of them all.

It’s time to take a photo
Show a big smile,
Look pretty for the camera.

Big nice hair,
Nice dress too
Taking the photo
1, 2, 3 cheese!


Thank you Chanel.

Harmful Second Hand Smoking


Second hand smoking is really bad for people, especially around kids. You may not know this, but second hand smoking causes death in kids.  Children around the world suffer from second hand smoking because of the children’s senses of smells, which means that kids could sniff up the air of the stinky smoke.

I think that we should make the right choices, of not smoking around kids or even simply, QUIT. Smoking not our future!

Dangers Of Smoking


Smoking is really bad for people. In my argument I will be talking about the chances of people catching a disease and the influences of second hand smoking.

Heart disease and lung cancer are caused by smoking, and those kind of diseases are very dangerous to the human body. Stroke, is very painful and dangerous. It means that the brain has lost functioning due to the disturbance in the blood supply to the brain.

There are chances of people dying when smoking. You are 2 to 4 times more likely to get heart disease, and 2 to 4 times more likely to have a stroke.

Smoking shouldn’t be done around children because they could get sick from it and they could be influenced to smoke.  Second hand smoking can cause chest infections, glue ear, childhood asthma and death in kids. I have found that parents who smoke around their children will influence them to pick up the habit themselves.

I have shown that smoking can harm your body and smoking around children can influence them to start smoking themselves.

London Olympics



For the last couple of weeks, competitors all around the world have travelled all the way to London, to compete in the Olympics. The Olympics have been on for the past two weeks and it is now finished.

During the whole week at the Olympics, there were two stand out athletes that inspired me and their names were Yohan Blake and Usain Bolt. Usain Bolt and Yohan Blake, became my favourite athletes, because I thought that they were very competitive in the sprints.

Yohan Blake has won two silver medals and one gold medal, and Usain Bolt has won three gold medals at the London Olympics. Through all the other sprints that they have been competing in, at some other events, Usain Bolt has won thirty eight medals and Yohan blake has won twenty medals for their country. Blake and Bolt represented Jamaica at the Olympics. They represented their country very well and they also knew what they wanted to accomplish.

Jamaica is very proud of Usain Bolt and Yohan Blake. The country is very excited that they will be bringing medals back to Jamaica.


Thank you Kevin

What Makes A Good Athlete





What makes a good athlete? Well my opinion would be, that a good athlete takes natural ability and hard work. To be a good athlete takes dedication, determination and desire, as well as ‘good’ genes.

Take Jesse Owens as an example. He broke the world record when he competed in the Olympics in 1936, but how did he become a champion? Jesse Owens was spotted by a coach while playing at the school playground. Even though there were a lot of kids playing there, Jesse Owens was a standout. This coach’s name was Charles Riley. Because Charles Riley spotted Owens, he took him onto the tracks and trained him until he got older, then he competed in the Olympics because Riley had faith in him!

There are a lot of champions around! All of them I believe have worked hard and used their own natural abilities. Champions have faith in themselves, know what they want to achieve and have people who believe in them. Champions never give up!
