I went to kindergarten in Hong Kong. Three years ago, I moved to Australia and started primary school here. I love playing rugby and badminton but I don t play the piano or violin. I am in the school rugby team and I play rugby after school with my teammates every Tuesday and Thursday. I wanted to join the school badminton team last year but I was too busy. I have two puppies, Ray and Jay. They are twins. Ray is bigger than Jay but Jay is heavier than Ray. Also, Jay s tail is shorter than Ray s. They are full of mischief. They always bounce and pounce on my bed. It makes me mad. But when they wag their tail to welcome me home, it makes me laugh. I like going on picnics with Ray, Jay and Dad. We sometimes go with Trod too. It likes crawling slowly on the grass and eating mosquitoes. We usually have picnics near the river. Sometimes we fish in the river. We seldom fish in the sea. Mum is delighted when we catch some big fish. 1 I like playing computer games, surfing the Internet and blogging. I like reading magazines too.

She is a Super Mum! We do not have a helper. My mum works in the daytime and does the housework in the nighttime. She got a job when I was five. At first I was not happy because I had to do a lot of things by myself. But soon I became very independent. When I was five, I could not pack my school bag by myself but I can do it now. When I was eight, I could fold the clothes and make my bed. Now I am a big boy. I will be eleven years old next month. I can help more at home. On Mother s Day, Mum can take a break and enjoy my cooking. I will cook scrumptious food for her. Hansel Lam (Class 6C) My mum is the best mum in the world. She is good at cooking. Her dishes are more delicious than what we eat at restaurants. My favourite dish is spaghetti with meat sauce. Yummy! When I was five, I was very thin and weak.
