The Aquarium and the Sydney Wildlife World.

Last Thursday (19th of July) My cousins and I went to the aquarium.

I been to the aquarium 4 times now!

We had an awesome time.

We went and saw some penguins, fish, (Durr...) seals, sharks, stingrays, eels, turtles, and more.

I even got to pat a Port Jackson shark.

The seals put on a show for us, and even came up to the glass wall for a close up view.

We got to see Nemo, Marlin, Dory and the gang.

After the Aquarium we went to the Sydney wildlife world.

I have never been there before, so it was a new experience for me.

First we got to see some butterflies in a enclosed area. Then we saw some spiders, bugs, stick insects, and the worlds biggest cockroach!

Then we went into the reptiles area, we saw snakes, snakes, and some more snakes. We got to see the worlds two most dangerous snakes.

We also got to see some lizards, like a two headed lizard, Frilled Neck Lizard, Blue tongue Lizard, The Thorny Devil, Bearded Dragon and more.

Then we saw some birds, nocturnal animals, Semi- Arid Grasslands and Koalas.

We then went and learnt some stuff about aboriginals, like what boomerangs were for,tools they used, then we heard a story about a hitchhiker on the didgeridoo. We also heard are names on the didgeridoo, it was pretty funny.

Then we went up into the butterfly habitat. One butterfly kept landing on everyone but me, until I put on my cousins multi-colour jumper, then landed on my shoulder.

That day was a very fun day, and i can't wait to go again!

Judges 7:7 Camp

In the first week of the school holidays I attended the Children's Prayer Network Judges 7:7 Camp at Meroo.

I was part of a team from my church; The Church of the Good Shepherd that included, Pastor Ann Hornshaw, Jessica Bird, Josh Thorley, Lucie D'Silva and myself.

Daphne Kirk was the main speaker. The other speakers included, Brian Pickering, Di McRae, Bev Tuddenham, Sister Elpida and Donny McGreggor.

Daphne's message to us was about being prepared for the end times. She spoke a lot about the signs in the bible to do with end times. God really wants us to be ready for it.

She also did team building, there were 14 teams/groups and everyday we did an activity to try and build up our team. My team's leader was Pastor Ann.

Daphne also spoke about the enemy stealing the next generation, through abortion, war, youth suicide, excessive computer/video game useage, drugs, and music that influences people's lives for the worst.

I really enjoyed Sister Elpida's friend who spoke. It showed me how Jesus can change people's lives from the worst to the best.

All the speakers had a good message and I really enjoyed all of them.

The Judge's 7:7 camp is one of the best things I have ever been too and I will never forget it.
