St. Patrick's Day

Yesterday there was the St. Patrick's Day in Irland.
Patrick is the patron of Irland. He was born in Britain 387. He studied to become a priest and later to be a bishop. He told people about god and showed them shamrocks for the trinity of god. He died with 46 year on the 17th March where he built his first church.

On the 17th March the people in Irland celebrate Patrick. They wear green clothes and make parades.
The first parade was in New York City 1762. The traditional food are corned beef, cabbage, potatoes, and soda bread. If you catch a leprechaun, it is a symbol for luck and you get his gold.

   

Archery

For centuries archery was necessary for survive. Nowadays it is a trendy sport.

For equipment you need an arc, a bracer, a simmer and some arrows.

Archery is an outdoor sport. For that there are different kinds of parkours, for example 3-D-Animal-Pakours or Target shooting. Archery is independent on seasons. Everybody who is interested in it can do it. For nature interested people it is an adventure to see animals in the wood. It is a healthy sport in the fresh air and you become fit. You can do this sport for competition or just for fun.

The most important thing is that nobody is standing in the danger zone. That means you must not stand in front of the archer. The equipment mustn't be damaged. You have to search for worn out arrows.

For the 3-D-Animal-Parkour you have to follow to some facts: Mostly there are three difficulties, one for beginners, one for experienced and one for specialists. For every target shooting there are three arrows available. If you hit the first arrow in kill you get 20 points, if you only hit the body of the animal you get 16 points...)

For the Target shooting you need some other rules: You can train on fields or in the hall for competitions. There are different age groups, where you can take part, from students to seniors. The distance is different from 19 metres to 90 metres. The further you hit the middle, the more points you reach.

I did archery the first time when I was eight years old. In my hometown Dorfstetten there is a very famous animal-parkour. It’s a big areal in the wood which is 14 hectares. I like the hobby because I can meet friends and have fun outdoor.

How many arrows are available for one target shooting?

What is the most important rule of archery?

Is Archery independent on a season?

 

The School of my dreams

Students are allowed to eat during the lessons. Students may go home at 12:40 am every day.

Teachers have to give no homework. They aren't allowed to ask a student a question only if students point out.
Parents mustn't sign tests. Parents aren't allowed to say you must learn.

Table manners

Let me tell you something about table manners in Austria and elsewhere.
Indicate you have finished eating by laying your knife and fork parallel on your plate.
Finish everything on your plate.
The host or hostess makes the first toast. Everyone lifts and clinks glasses, looks at the person making the toast and says, "Prost!".

Typical table manners in America:
Don’t start eating until the host tells you, also make sure that everyone have their food on their plates.
Once the meal is completed, place the napkin loosely beside your plate. Make sure you do not crumple or fold it.
Last, but not the least, once you have enjoyed the meal and returned home, make sure you thank the hosts for having invited you.

Reach your Goal

Dear Sir or Madam.
I would like to inform you about my project.
My name is Anna Kastenhofer and I am 14 years old. I live in Dorfstetten and I attended the Business College in Perg. I enjoy to draw and shape different pictures. At the moment I haven't  a part-time job. One of my hobbies is sport climbing.
For the future I will get a different job with some creativity. One ambition for me is to make the next course of climbing.
My dream is to spray a big graffiti in New York on a special place. I want to support you with my sketchy I have made at home. You can find it at the attachment.
Absolutely a good friend of me must get involved in my dream project. The graffiti will be a motive with different colours and it should have meanings. The area must be very big because we have got lots of ideas. My friend and I want to get more new draw techniques with this chance. We want to make a graffiti in New York because to inspire other people to make their dreams true.

Respectfully,
Anna
