Coding with Swift

Hi guys!  This is swift-playground, a coding app that can really teach you some skill.  It makes you think to overcome some of the puzzles or chapters.  I have learnt in this puzzle that you can’t  just cheat your way into everything because this app doesn’t give you all the hints. You have to sit, think and use what you have learnt to finish the chapter. Here is my favorite puzzle because it took me 5 minutes to finish, at the end, I learned what really swift is about, CODING.  See you next time!

A day in the life and home of a child in an informal settlement

Hi, I’m Xhico This isn’t any ordinary blog about how your doing or you just feel like you want to express yourself to people. I’m writing this blog because I care about the environment and how you guys can help us solve our informal settlement style of living. Before I tell you what you can help on, I'm going to tell you HOW I’m  living here so far. First, we have trash EVERYWHERE! But we take the trash to the swap shop twice a day to get things we need like stationary and we can be healthy and not get germs or let other animals eat the trash and get very sick. We have steel houses that get caught on fire a lot and I mean A LOT!, and our fathers had to look for a job everyday so they can afford food for us. Now I can tell you how you can help so first, you guys can help our community by helping us build fireproof houses and power in a bottle and solar power and stuff like that and also help us by coming up with more things to help our environment. Oops,I'm late for school. I

More like the Scary Singing Inspector

Hi, I’m Jesse I’m here to tell you of one of the worst days at school. Do you know why? I’ll tell you why. One of the Inspectors came to school today and his name is Mr Raymond. He said he wanted everyone in the big hall for singing. This particular inspector wore big knickerbockers and tight stockings with shiny shoes. He had big blueberry eyes with a red, round face. A green hat and a brown jacket. He was the meanest inspector I had ever seen and he was very rude. First, he called Benny and Charles up. Poor boys, they didn’t know a single song! Definitely not Blue bells of Scotland or minstrel boy. Mr R loudly screamed,”Do you know a single song?!” “ We know Pretty Polly” said Charles and then Mr R said” THEN SING IT”. He was a very noisy man as well. Benny sang a high squeaky voice because he was very scared and Charles sang in an low voice and it was terrible. Next he called me, I sang a beautiful song on the modelater then it was Gladys Armstrong and Iris Vaughan. They didn’t

Hi Everyone Today I’m going to talk or “text” about High Africa, a camp I went on.Its was good but a lot of drama and I don’t know what to say except it was crazy, full of activities, the leap of faith, rock climbing,  And swimming in the lake everyone thought they where snake on the tiny islands in the lake. Everting was so cool, we had fun with the team leaders and when we ended our first day there, I was so glad because my arms where like rubber and I was so tiered I tried to sleep and I did eventually.😴 It was so much fun o blob:https://www.blogger.com/edf2132a-f6be-4184-bcd0-9ccf3c6a940f n the bus ride there but B oring when we both fell asleep!  So we when we got there, we settled in and when we unpacked- wait, did I tell who was in my cabin?

Hi everyone! Just wanted to tell you guys my life in grade 5 is going so far, and I hope everyone is doing well. So I wanted to say was... Grade 5 is AMAZING! I have so many new friends and and so many new outings. Bukho and I visited the little side  so many times!I can't remember the last time we stayed on our side until the bell rang. Then one day(Also today the 28th-02-2019) I went with Chris and Bukho, Bukho had to go to Choir so Chris and I we're left until Lene came and she went with us back to the little side.Chris found a frozen grasshopper and it was dead. Poor thing! We then noticed an old car and I threw it on the roof of the sandpit, then for the next 5 minutes Lene and Chris tried to get it down and Chris got it and then I threw it in the baby pool and left it there in the sight of the dead grasshopper being eaten alive.  2 Weeks ago, we went on an outing to Kirstenbos and learned all about fynbos and birds and at the end, we went and rolled down the hill an
