the moral value

One lovely summer day, as usual, the ants were working hard  saving foods for the cold winter. There was a boss organising everything.
 Suddenly, a Giant Anteater who  had found the ants by his long nose,  he started to pull one of them towards him to eat it. After that, the commander gave a whistle for the ants to pay attention, then the rest of ants began application the plan against any surprise attack, so… the ants started to make a big circle like the football through the instructions was given by their commander, then, the ants ‘football rolled toward the Anteater , and it became in his nose, he couldn’t breathing ,he almost choked and then he fell down on the ground. And that was a big win for this attack and then they started laughing and they were very happy and proud about what they had done together.

the story gave us a message that we have to be a good organised team to achieve the desired  goal and the victory even we are a small.

My Biography

My name is Haifaa  Zaiter, I was born in Lebanon (March 1986) in Hadath Baalbak village, I lived there for 9 years  and then i moved out to live in Beirut, the capital of lebanon and left behind me the  most beautiful memories of childhood.

I have five sisters and three brothers, and i am the middle one of them, My father was a military in the army, the rank of sergeant first, and my mother was a housewife, and the rest of my family were students.

I was on a close relationship with my father, we were like friends and more, we used to quarrel and play together and he was the ideal person in my life.

I have finished the primary and  the high school, In this period, I was in love of Mr. Ali B. who was the brother of my twins friends in the school. Later, he left Lebanon and traveled to Austarlia to settle there with his father.

after that, what happened was not in the expection, it was a July war in Lebanon that launched by Israel, it was the worest period (33 days) in my life, I didn't have any weapon to defend on myself, i only had the prayer and the patience, but finally, it ended with victory that acheived by the Lebanes's resistance.

I went to the institue to contitue the study in childcare profession. but i didn't complete it, because i didn't like it, and after started working  as a cashier in shops for selling the stuffs like parfums, scarves, makeup......

I waited my husband Ali for 5 years, I  was only talk to him over the net and on the phone.

It is about time, he came back after a long time, we got married  and he took me to Australia.

Currently, I am studying English Language at TAFE. 

 Ramadan is the the greatest month in the whole year, so we have to fast for thirty day from the dawn to dask, so its the second year which spend ramadan without my parents, so i feel sad about that.

My husband came back at 12:00 am so we still awake till the morning, eating for souhour and reading in the sacred book and watching the arabic serial.

what i did in the holiday ?

I stayed at home this school holiday, i couldn't go out with my husband because he's working all the seven days and also, the weather was very bad for going out, the rains were heavy, so i stayed at home with my family in law, watching turkish serial, and sitting together next to the heater to be keep warm.

But only one day i went to the shopping center in hurstville to buy a present for my husband's birthday, and later we celebrated his birthday and we ate the cake, but it was a funny day, because all my sisters in law gave him a jacket.

Excursion to the zoo,

The student association in TAFE decided to do a free excursion on Thursday for all the AMEP classes to the zoo. We agreed to meet at the TAFE at 9:00 am.
 I’ve never been to the zoo before; I only watched animals on TV. So, I couldn't sleep well the whole night from the enthusiasm which I was felt about seeing the animals and going to the zoo.
I woke up early and I equipped my bags and all the stuff I’d need like my food and my camera. Then I went to TAFE and met my class mates there. When all the students arrived, we went up into the bus. The journey began...
We were all so excited, when we arrived each one of us accelerated down from the bus. We were all rushing and each one of us wanted to get out before the other. Finally we got there. We started to take pictures everywhere.
There was wonderful wildlife everywhere. We were given a map by our teacher to guide us around the zoo. First we went to see the peacocks as our teacher talked to us about each animal we visited. There were lots of beautiful animals like monkeys, ponies, and different kinds of birds, llamas, kangaroos, the lazy koalas and many more...
Half way there, a representative from the zoo talked to us about the history and lifestyles of koalas and snakes. They let us each touch a snake skin. This was a very exciting experience which I will be telling everyone I know.
After that we had lunch and then continued touring the zoo. I went to see the parrots there were many kinds and all of them kept saying “hello!” each time we walked past them.
Then I went to see the kangaroos where I played with them and fed them. There was another show about tigers where they put food inside a plastic cage and the tiger broke the cage to get the food and ate it. This show was very funny and shows how smart the tigers are.
 We took photos everywhere with everyone, and enjoyed this beautiful day out in the zoo.
On the way back home I kept thinking about the excursion and about how much fun I had. I sat o the bus and closed my eyes, and started to remember all the fun memories.
This was a generous idea from the student association and I’m very thankful that they allowed us to go on this excursion.

Health and Life Style Expo was held by student association. The TAFE active program has been designed by TAFE NSW Student Association in direct response to the decline in physical activity amongst the Australian populatio.

 It was yesterday June 4^th between 10:30 and 1:30.

In total, there were 25 exhibitions gave us lots of information and advice and there were also practical demonstrations. The some organisations were: natural way massage health centre, Asthma Australia, Cancer Council of NSW……

The student association arranged sample bags and they gave us which included T-shirt and health information flyers.

We were involved with the organisation of the TAFE active Health Expo and with another AMEP classes, we cooked healthy food for this day and donations were made for the food. The money raised from the donations went to “Aussie Helpers”.

All students and staff were given an evaluation form to complete. We had to see at least six of the agencies and get a stamp on our evaluation form. Then we had to fill in the evaluation form and put it in the entry box.

I was so excited in this event and I send big thanks for all the persons concerned who let us to participate in "Healthand Lifestyle Expo".
