SUNSET

The darkness hugs the sun like a weed covering a plant.
The day turns into night.
It's like entering a new world.
The light trys to push the night away.
Witch creates a sunset. It hovers over the ground catching others eyes.

Water fight !

''Splash'', Keira just hit me with a colourful water balloon then Ruby and Jackson joined in. ''This means war I said'' Boom! Splat! Whizz! Bang! Crash! There was water balloons every where, it was like a crazy tornado... 

Earlier that day we prepared three bags off colourful bunch a balloons. I made my own  hiding space so Ruby,Jackson and Keira would not find me. ''Here is one coming your way'' said Jackson, ''ow that hit my shoulder'' I said.

''This means double war'' I  say. I had even hid some balloons earlier so I went and grabbed them and started water balloon fight two. I walked over too the bucket off balloons but there was none left! ''There is none more left'' I said. ''clean up time'' keira said. So me, Keria and Ruby cleaned up. But what we didn't know was that Jackson had some water balloons behind his back and he smashed then into our faces.

We had decided to say sorry to each other, other wise we may have gotten into trouble.

Ally cat

In the middle of an alley way with lots of shops lives a ginger cat called Oliver. This cat claims the veggie shop as its home.  

Often the cat looks as playful as a monkey, as hungry as a hippo, as happy as a fat lion and last of all, as sleepy as an old elephant.  Now, have we got all that? OK.

Oliver jumps on the shelves stacked with vegetables and has a sleep right at the back of the tomatoes. The ally cat also welcomes and plays with costumers and does much more. Also, the alley cat looks like ginger bread. 

Elections 2017

Cross Country

When I stood on the starting line I heard a HONK! I felt my feet lift from the ground while I ran my booming heart out. The first obstacle was running past the crowd, for me this was the scariest bit because the crowd cheered my name witch made me nervous. Next we had to run down a steep hill. I felt like a little flying fairy runing down the hill. Eventually I saw the muddy river now here comes the funny part, I said ''this is to slow you down right'' as I face planted

 into the gross mud (I mean cow poo) I eventually got up and ran to the next obstacle. The next challenge was zooming through a little rocky creek and yes you probable guessed what the next course was it was running on rocks ''man I thought these people really know how to scare us kids'' I tried to ignore my stitch as I jogged over to the steep hill, there were some tyres we had to jump to get to the horrible hill. Nearly to the end I thought as I jogged up the hill I could see the finish line yay , as I ran past the finish line yippe no more cross country.

        

Whistleless

Whistless could not whistle He felt miserable and left out. as all the people in the city could , so Whistles set of to find his whistle.                      

Whistless passed by a silly looking banana man. He pulled Whistless into a shower by his back feathers. However the man had an amazing whistle that made Whistless sad as he flew away leaving the man all alone.

Meanwhile, Whistless found himself in the middle of the city by a police man who has a little red whistle.  He encourages Whistless to try to whistle. Nah didn't happen keep trying whistles. He then comes across a little girl who put Whistless on a swing that looked like a donut but again she was also whistling!

After that Whistles came across a hungry tiger. that tried to eat poor Whistless! so Whistless scrammed of.                                                                                                                             Eventually the bird gets her friend to help her whistle and from that day on whistles learnt to whistle.

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.

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.

Maui the Hero

Up a hill, if you turn right, then left you will come to the place where the Maori pa stands. In the village stands strong, intelligent Maui and his special whanau.


A beautiful pounamu lay on Maui's cocoa coloured chest. Maui wore his brown, curly hair in a topknot. In addition, Maui wore a piupiu that spun like a carnival ride.

Maui was the leader of the tribe. In the beginning, he was the one who came up with the idea of slowing down the sun because days and nights were too fast. There was only time to sleep wake up then go back to sleep. When he slowed down the sun  people could finish all of thier work.

Maui was confident, courageous and a great leader. Some people think Maui is the reason we're alive today. 

i am

I am from a closet with clothing

From small teddy lion and little shrek

I am from a nice house with a blinding veiw

And big windows i ran into

I am from my tree hut i feel out of

whose goes the big leaves

from Jodi Osborne and Mark Osborne

I am from pizza and pasta

I am from the gate i sat on and said it was my swing

I am from those moments in my pool that i loved.

the three princesses

Today we read a story about the three princesses and we had to do a recount about it so lets go. Today is the what day said the princesses the day you find your lane said father. So they listent and made healthy lunches. The first princess could swim like a champion. the second princess could sing like a bird. the third princess had rock solid feet. So they set off, they all had a teckneck to find a lane.The first princess closed her eyes and spun her arms to find a lane but that didn't work.The second princess chucked a pebble to see what lane it landed on but it flew into the lake. the third princess climed a tree to find the lanes and that worked. There were three lanes the first was a lane by a lake that's the one for me said the first princess and off she went. The second princesses lane was a singing lane so of she went. And of course the last princess went to a lane with loads of smelly mud.
