Dr Ben Carson By Asmah
Hooray! We are going to see Dr Ben Carson at the Telstra Clear Manukau Events Centre. We arrived in a bendy bus. When we arrived everyone was surprised about how many schools there were at the Telstra Clear Manukau Events Centre. After that we were sitting on the grass and waited about 45 minutes. The security guard led us into the theatre. The theatre was huge! After that we sat on chairs and listened to a man named Henry. He started his speech with amazing expression. He told his story about when he discovered a book. When he went to the library he thought a book that he wanted to borrow was a DVD. Henry was in love with the librarian. Henry described
her as having big fat lips, big eyes and long black hair. Then he introduced Dr Ben Carson to us. He talked about when he was young and that he grew up in a very poor family in America. When he finished high school he went to medical school. Ben was a Neuro surgeon, (a brain surgeon). He told us, to think big mean and it meant
T- Talented
H- Honest
I- Intelligent
N- Nice
K- Knowledge
B- Books
I- Interactive
G- God
After that we went out and had a free apple and free drink. I felt fantastic after having a drink and apple. I enjoyed my time listening to Dr Ben Carson.

My Fantastic Time At Eastern Beach.
When I reached room 5, I was amazed that I was early. I hung my bag and sat down on the carpet. Soon Miss Paton did the roll. After Miss Paton did the roll she took out a clip board from her bag. Soon everybody lined outside.
Next the whole school was waiting at the drive way for the bus. The bus took forever, then a few minutes we saw a bus but that was not the school bus . I felt like the bus would never arrive. Finally the bus came, when I got up my legs were in pain.
Soon we reached Eastern beach. Then Ms Kirkpatrick and Mr Johnston told whole school where we were allowed and how far we are allowed in the water. Ms Kirkpatrick also told us that there is another school here.
After Ms Kirkpatrick and Mr Johnston finished talking we had our morning tea. Next rooms 1, 2,3 and 4 went in the water first for a swim. Then Mr Johnston said “Room 5 time to do life jackets with Mr Nepia”. The water was so cold that it felt like ice blocks. My brother and I was not allowed to swim in the water.
When we finished doing the life jackets we went swimming. It was Room 6`s turn. Mr Johnston got in a kayak and went in the water so the students wouldn’t go too far. Mr Johnston explained how to put on the life jackets on.
Soon it was lunch time, I had a healthy burger. Next I played volley ball with Nicky and Katareana. Then I played on the trees and then I played bob it with Dallas, Nicky, Katareana and my little brother.
Soon it was time to go back to school. I had a fantastic time at Eastern beach with my friends and my little brother.
