Flight of the Kuaka

Did you know the kuaka's flight is 30,000 kilometers? Some people call them the marathon bird. 

Every year, the kuaka migrate from Alaska and Siberia, in the Northern Hemisphere to New Zealand in the Parengarenga harbour. The birds come in August and leave in September. Also, the kuaka do not come to breed only to feed.  They travel far just to feed on small crabs and marine worms in the harbour. The kuaka leave the elders behind as they will not make to journey back. The

kuaka fly in a V formation so they  can fly faster. When the kuaka fly to NZ, their feathers fall off so when they arive they need time to grow their feathers back. They collect enough food for a whole month. The birds fly 80kms an hour but soon drop down to 40km. 

The kuaka are an amazing bird.

That was....

                                         THAT WAS ROTORUA

Remember when we got out of the car and her gross smell reached for me? Remember how her soggy wet carpet leaked in my old smelly shoes? That was Rotorua. Remember how the stacks of warm pancakes waited for us on the fresh warm white plaits? Remember how the zorbe span round and round like a washing machine? That was Rotorua. Remember there was a big queue 
for the changing rooms at the zorbe? Do you remember How the car yelled at us well we turned the key? That was Rotorua.

THE GIRL AND HER NANA

  

THE GIRL AND HER NANA

In an old creaky house lived... Well its really just my Nana. I've never been to her house because my friends say weird things about it like ghosts were living in the dirty bathroom. At least if I went I would have my sister. Tomorrow My mum dad and sister are going to New York they are trying to arrange for me to go to a friends house but they're all busy. If not they have a plan B and thats for me to go to Nanas house. Its a nightmare come true. I mean how bad could it be. Next minute mum calls pack a bag and Nana said its OK for you to go so I did. when we arrived at Nana's I jumped out of the car and walk on the old tiles to the door. When I got to the door I open it. It seems that no one is there. Next minute I got pulled in by an old wrinkly hand. I suddenly screamed and my lungs popped "aah" Hi nana I said. Hi sweetie Nana said. As her yuck breath crawled to me I wispered yuck. Whats that Nan said oh your so sweet. Well its time to go to bed your room is down the hall then you make a right turn then a left and you'll be there. I made my way to the mysterious room as I walked in I breathed in the old musty smell. Well Ill try to get to sleep but I couldn't as nana's knitting needles where going click click click and as the fire in the lounge bubbled I fell asleep. The end.

5 things i would do if were to remain rich.

(1) If I were to remain rich I would pay of all the bills so there were to be no more FOREVER !!!

(2) If I were rich I would get my Dad a new car because his car is breaking to its bones AHHH !!!

(3) If I was as rich as the queen I would buy so many groceries that the cart would break and I would need 9 shop assistants to help clean it up .

(4) If I became rich I would get a mansion so we can have a lot of storage to store our treasure that we have picked up along our lives . 

(5) If I was rich I would give lots of money to hospitals  schools homeless and charity so others can live a nice live to just like us.
