Tasty Yummy Insects

I am learning to persuade my audience using persuasive writing and emotive words

Have you run out of dinner ideas and your mum can't be bothered making dinner? Then you should try insects, but too much people judge a bug by it's looks even though they have never tried bugs and when they do, they actually like them. There are loads of reasons why we should eat insects in our diet like how bugs are low in fat, and healthy, tasty yummy treats and you be creative with recipes from all over the world.

Everyone has a sweet tooth when they see something yummy in there life, so then you should try insects for dessert one day and see if you like it. So why shouldn't you have a bug or two sometimes? You could try a scorpion lollipop,w chocolate cockroach, wax worm taco, your choice. And it even shows that 80% of people around the world like bugs. Insects taste nutty, especially crickets. Not only is cooking with insects a tasty treat but you can also cook and eat bugs without the guilt because they are really healthy and a good option. 

There are healthy benefits to eating bugs like how they are healthy and high in protein. Like how caterpillars are rich in minerals, Vitamins, Zinc, phosphorus, and iron. Grasshoppers and crickets are rich in protein plus there are around 900 species of crickets and 11,000 known species of grasshoppers. As well as knowing how healthy they are you need to know how to cook them and get creative with them.

What is another type of fries and is finger licking good? If you said french fries from your local fish and chips store sounds nice but you're definitely wrong, Meal worm fries now that's probably a new word to you. Mouth watering food like chocolate covered crickets, scorpion lollipops, wax worm tacos are all healthy so you can eat them without getting heavier because it's low in calories and plus there are thousands of recipes from all over the world like Thailand, Australia, Mexico, China and Brazil, so that's why you should eat insects.

As you can see these are the reasons why you should eat insects because you can taste meals that taste like it was made by a famous chef like Gordon Ramsay, but like I said not only does it taste like it was made by a pro chef it also has healthy benefits like how many minerals and vitamins are in them. Plus you can taste insects like they were made in different countries. So in conclusion I believe that you, yes you should at least try an insect.

Kapa Haka

Mana, power and pride would be a few words to describe the feeling as the Good Shepherd School Kapa Haka group took the stage. During the weekend a large group of year 5 and 6 students took to the stage to perform at the Eden Albert Cultural Festival. There were a few nerves before we started but once we were underway the excitement of performing kicked in. We felt proud as a team to perform for so many people. Kia Kaha! The highlight of Kapa Haka for me was the Haka and when the leader couldn't even catch up with us

Athletics

The harder the battle the sweeter the victory!
All of Good Shepherd School piled into buses as we headed to Three Kings Fields for the annual Athletics Day event. We had been training for weeks and we were ready to take on our peers and to compete for a placing. The events were running, long jump, high jump, discus and shot put. My favorite event was

Saint Anthony Of Padua

Praying

During R.E we have been learning about the living, purgatory and heaven about how they all connect and how people that are living pray to people in heaven and purgatory, purgatory pray to heaven and living, and heaven pray to the people in purgatory and the living and heres what we did...
