Every Tuesday a man called John Dinning comes into our class and teaches us how to use this cool app called soundtrap. In soundtrap you make music and can share it with your friends so they can listen as well. We have been doing it for about four weeks. It is so fun and we are all enjoying learning about different types of music.

This is a song I made on soundtrap. I hope you enjoy 🙂

On the 10th of December 2025 Moniaive Primary had their Christmas jumper day and Christmas lunch. Everyone turned up in their santa hats, reindeer antlers and different unique Christmas jumpers.  For the Christmas lunch we had turkey, sausages, sprouts, potatoes and carrots. For the desert we had vanilla ice cream and brownie.  It was so cool to see everyone’s Christmas jumpers and Christmas accessories.

At the weekend me, yulia and our friends Aarni, Unti and Yulias sister Maya all went to a festival called Eden. It is very well known and located near Moffat. This years theme was space and there was a lot of people dressed quite strangely. Some of the events that happened where Madame Jo-mamas drag show, The lost disco, the spangled cabaret and the paint fight.  On Saturday it was vey stormy and when me and yulia and aarni were sitting in aarni’s van we saw lightning strike.  On Saturday evening we all went to Madame Jo-mamas drag show. It was a drag show that had five drag queens and one drag king. Overall Eden was so much fun and I really enjoyed it. I hope I can go again next year but its super expensive.

On the 1st of May 2025 Primary 5-7 went to the community garden. We were there with a community helper called Katie.  While we were there we made our own compost,  we planted carrots, we planted strawberries and we just generally helped out. It was so fun and a benefit was that it was a gorgeous sunny day!  We learnt about how to make compost and we are basically all experts now…   Of course we had a teacher with us but we were all very independent and we worked in pairs to build up our teamwork skills while making the compost. We also planted our own plants of any seed in little containers and got to take them all. It was a very fun experience and we all enjoyed it very much! Thank you to all the helpers who helped organise it  🙂 

Over the holiday I learnt how to do a front walkover on my air-mat at home. I got really good and now I just need to stick the landing.
