One  September  morning  •a  piece  of  fog  touched  me.    As  I  looked  out  my  window  the  gold  leaves  driVed  out  of  the  tree    as  I  dragged  my  feet  down  the  stairs  to  breakfreast,  as  I  waited  for  the  school  bus  I  feel  puffs  of  wind  pick  up  my  hair  when  the  school  bus  came  I  slowley  walk  up  the  stairs  as  I  bundled  •  in  a  seat  as  I  went  down  the  steps  I  saw  birds  migraCng  south  as  if  leaves  followed  them    it  looked  like  they  were  air  dancing.•    -­‐Allyson,  gr.2

•  When  the  Autumn  wind  blows  it  makes  me  shiver.  It  really  makes  me  quiver.    The  wind  is  cold  and  really  bold,  it  feels  refreshing  on  my  face.    I  get  to  keep  my  own  pace.    My  hair  would  blow  I  can  be  slow,  I  walk  on  the  ground  I  don’t  have  a  frown,  it  feels  so  good  and  it  keeps  me  in  a  joyful  mood  it  keeps  me  happy  for  the  rest  of  the  day  and  I  want  to  play  and  play.    AVer  the  Autumn  wind  blows  on  my  face  it  is  really  cool,  it  almost  feels  as  cold  as  my  pool.            By  Samantha,  gr.3

–  Me  and  my  class  went  to  UBC,  and  into  the  Nitobe  Gardens  on  Jan.  16.    The  Garden  looks  nice,  and  everything  has  a  meaning.    The  more  red  there  is,  the  more  danger.    There  are  also  bridges  and  lanterns.    My  favorite  bridge  is  the    zig-­‐zag  bridge.    They  say  when  you  become  an  adult,  you  walk  past  it  so  the  devil  leaves  you.    They  believe  the  devil  can  only  walk  in  a  straight  line.    The  lanterns  also  have  meaning.    The  father  lantern,  mother  lantern.  They  are  all  stages  you  will  cross  in  life.    When  we  entered  the  Nitobe  Gardens,  we  walked  towards  the  right  because  it  is  the  side  of  the  moon.    There  are  also  benches,  just  like  Mr.  Weil  said.    You  sit  on  the  bench  to  look  at  the  garden  and  see  what  you  have  done  in  life.    There  is  a  bridge  in  the  begining  and  the  end.

•  When  you  enter  the  Nitobe  Memorial  Garden  you  turn  to  the  right.    The  Nitobe  Garden  was  built  in  the  memory  of  a  Japanese  man  named  Nitobe  who  wanted  to  be  the  bridge  between  Japan  and  Canada.    In  the  garden  you  follow  the  forest  path  of  “infancy”  and  pass  the  “father”  and  the  “mother”  lanterns.    You  can  choose  the  path  of  the  easygoing  child  or  the  path  of  the  struggling  child.    AVer  that  you  enter  the  wide  open  space  of  childhood.    There  is  a  pond  close  to  the  path  with  koi  fish  in  that  represent  virtues.    Soon  you  come  to  the  77  log  bridge  which  was  built  in  memory  of  Nitobe.

The  Zig-­‐Zag  Bridge  Walk  through  in  adulthood  The  Devil  will  leave  you  He  walks  in  straight  lines  So  he  cannot  follow  you.

The  zig-­‐zag  bridge.  The  Devil  will  leave  you
