My Hero at Home

My Family Hero

By Reuben

 My hero is my Uncle Grant. When he was a teenager he dived in to water that he thought was much deeper than it was and he broke his neck.

He is now disabled and in a wheelchair but this hasn’t stopped him from doing incredible things.

Special qualities he has are he is really good at art and is a Paralympian. He does shooting for the New Zealand Paralympic air rifle team.
I look up to him because he is doing amazing things that are inspiring me. I would like to be a shooter or artist like him.
He makes me feel safe and cared for. He makes me feel proud because of his effort.

He has influenced me  he because has survived breaking his neck.

Tough times he has had were recovering from breaking his neck and learning to shoot and paint with a brush in his mouth.

People who have helped him are my Grandma because it must have been hard for my Grandma to look after my uncle. 

A special message I have for him is don’t give up on your dreams.

My hero at home

My hero is Trixey. She is my dog.

Special qualities she has is she is loyal.

I look up to her. She is fast.

She makes me feel safe.

A tough time she has had was when we left her in Tekapo by mistake.

People who have helped her and looked after are Mum Dad and me.

A special message I have made for her is thank you for keeping me company and being my special friend.
