Article - Boy Who Blessed Homeless Man

In breaking news, there has been a little boy blessed a hungry homeless man, in an Alabama waffle house. Josiah Duncan a 5 year old boy entered the waffle house with his mother Ava Faulk. As Josiah was eating his meal he spotted a man sitting on the table with no food who looked hungry.

Five year old Josiah asked his mother some questions, “why is that man dirty? Why are his clothes ripped?, and why doesn't he have any food?”. His mother Ava Faulk explained to her son that “he might not have a place to stay, and that maybe he can't afford a meal”. Josiah was feeling sympathetic because he had something good to eat and the homeless man was just sitting at a bare table.

Josiah was really disappointed to hear that about a homeless man. He decided to ask his mother to buy the homeless man something to eat.  Josiah went over to the table and asked the man if he wanted something to eat.  With joy the homeless man was really grateful that he came over. Josiah said “you can't order food without a menu”, so Josiah went over and got a menu for the man.

The homeless man ordered a burger. As he  was ordering a burger he asked Josiah if he could have some bacon as well. Josiah was so kind he said “sure”. Customers and staff were really touched with how the little boy (Josiah) went  and got him something to eat as well as taking it over to him.

As the poor man was about to take his first bite of his burger Josiah wanted to sing a song to bless the food. Josiah started singing as loud as his little voice could go. Josiah blessed the food by singing and praying. WSFA 12 news reported, Josiah`s prayer was “God our father, god our father , we thank you, we thank you, for many blessings, for our many blessings, Amen, Amen. “The man cried, I cried, everybody cried”, Faulk admitted.

Once Josiah finished singing, the poor man ate his food and left with a full stomach, while Ava faulk left with happiness and she was proud of how he felt empathy of what he had displayed  .

Mr Burt`s - Korero

In the afternoon block, the year 8 and 7`s had a special visitor, from our own principal, Mr Burt. He was welcome to tell us about his history of his ancestors which was his grandfather. Mr Burt talked about his grandfather and how he took part the first world war one. He was talking about how our New Zealanders who fought for our country invented things that had been invented before.   


First he talked about is Technology, is it good or bad? The word he talked about was Militarism. Mr Burt said that Militarism is about when back in the olden days it's when people wanted to start fights for no reason at all.


Like shoving and pushing and arguing to make the fight happened. There were war between the British and the Germans. They were fighting over about how the New Zealanders made a battle ship by the name of Drednort.

Mr Burt told us about how his grandfather was the first man to have his own bicycle. His grandfather had a olden day bicycle. He said that there was no brakes on the bike so when you would go down a hill you will have to use your feet to stop yourself from going fast. Or With stopping the bike you could pick your legs off the ground and let your bike do all the work. It was really weird because wont you like fall off the bike when you going down the hill. Also girls could not ride bikes because back in the olden days girls wore dresses and if they would ride a bike there dress will lift up and it will show there underwear.


This battleship Dreadnought, was all over the newspaper in the olden days and then the Germans made there own battleship that was twice bigger than the New Zealand battleship. The New Zealanders and the Germans were all arguing about how they can crush their ships and how they can destroy it into pieces.


Our Principal also talked about how the soldiers went to dangerous places and how they got bad diseases and they went home and they gave their illness to their children and there wife. Therefore soldiers died due to their sickness from a place where you can get sick and died on that land.


It was really fascinating to see Mr Burt, come into our block and tell us all about his grandfather's journey in the war. Hearing about what New Zealand made and how soldiers died for our country, was really cool and sad.

But I think Mr Burt is happy that his grandfather fought for our country and all the other men who died for New Zealand . It must have been dreadful adventure to kill, bomb others, stab others and shooting them with bullets. But he was welcome to us telling us and hearing a story about how someone in real  life went to war.
