Labour Weekend

On Labour weekend we were allowed to stay at home on Monday as well. In  Labour Weekend I got to go see my Aunty and Uncle with their two sons Nesi and Liam.We went to their house and played on the trampoline for a little while and then we watched

some TV. A few hours later we left and we actually told them to come to our house to have a BBQ. We were having lots of fun playing tag and hide and seek.

When we finished playing it was time to eat our dinner so we went to the shop to buy some yummy drinks to have with our dinner. We ate our delicious dinner and then me and my sisters did our chores so we could watch a cool movie. We watched shark tale and we ended up laughing through nearly half of it because it was a pretty funny movie.We wanted to watch another movie so my mum put in another DVD called Tangled. It was really entertaining with all of the songs and funny bits. A few minutes later my cousins fell asleep so we fell asleep too so that was pretty much saturday.

The next day my cousins went back to their house and it was cleanup day! We cleaned every room in the house and every single wall in the house. When we finished we felt so hungry and so thirsty and so hot so my dad organised a trip to the sunny beach!

We packed our stuff and our food and drinks then left to bucklands

bay. We played on the playground and had fun and then we had sandwiches and fizzy drinks for lunch. We then hopped in our togs

and ran into the nice cold water. It felt amazing! We were in the

water for over an hour and then we went back to the car for a snack because we ran out of energy. We ate some almonds and some Juice and then we were set to even more fun! We stayed in the water until sunset and then we went back home to have a shower and

relax. We watched an episode of KUWTK (known as Keeping up with the Kardashians), and then we ate some Ice cream and fruit salad.

And that was the end of Sunday.

The next day was the best day because we went to the pools for the whole day and we went out for lunch at a fancy restaurant. We got to go on the big slide and then we jumped off the side of the pool into the really deep water. We grabbed our inflatable pizzas from the car and then we filled them up with up with air so we could relax on the nice water. I almost fell asleep because it was so comfortable! After the pools we went to a fancy restaurant and we

ate some delicious food! After that we went back home feeling very very tired!

Writing assessment: I heard a whisper but no one was there

I was walking in a cold cold alley. My fingers were suddenly turning blue and purple.My face felt like it was in a ice cube and my feet felt the pain of pins and needles but I knew that I would be back home in no time. I reached half way out of the alley when I suddenly heard a whisper. It was so quiet that I couldn’t hear what it said. I decided to ignore it and continued walking. I then heard it again and felt shivers go down my neck.That’s when I knew I wasn’t alone.

I started to walk a lot faster until I heard the whisper again.My guts told me that I couldn’t take it no

more and to just look back but my brain told me to not look back. I didn’t know what to do so I looked back but no one was there.It felt frightening because I knew that the whisper wasn’t my imagination it was something or someone.I started looking in the bushes to see if I found any luck.I only ended up finding a few two dollar coins and a small rock but I was determined to find out what that noise was. The temperature started dropping so I started to look faster.

As I was looking, for the fourth time I heard the whisper. I was getting sick of it so I looked back but there was still no one behind me! My heart was beating a lot faster than usual! I knew that my legs were not very determined but my mind was still telling me to go. I started to look in the trees and by the logs but there was still no sign of anything. My eyes suddenly started to see blurry and things were coming out of my mind. I shaked my head a lot and things became more clearer. Then I decided to give up.

When I gave up I was nearly there when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I screamed and ran into the bushes until the person walked past. It had been about twenty minutes since I saw no one walk past. I walked carefully out of the bush and checked both ways.There was no sign of anyone.My spine felt as if it was frozen. I saw a dim light coming from the hills so I started to go down  to see if anyone was there and surprisingly I saw a small house. I quietly invited myself in and for  once it felt nice and warm and I smelt a delicious supper. I had to find who lives here. I checked all the rooms but they were all empty. The last three rooms left were the living room, the dining room and the kitchen.My stomach felt tight and my brain felt scared. I opened the door and found a surprise.

There were four fairies sitting on the table eating some yummy chicken soup! I then asked them,

“Was it one of you guys that whispered to me while I was walking?”

“Yes it was me I’m sorry if I scared you!” said the blue fairy.

“I was flying in the reserve to get some wood for the fireplace when I saw you. I whispered hello

then tapped your shoulder for attention! I’m sorry”

“It’s ok” I said and then they offered me some soup. I was thankful but I knew that my parents

were expecting me to be home any minute so I passed. I thanked the fairies then continued my journey back home.

Get to know me!

Hi my name is Alicia Malupo. I go to Glen Innes school which I think has the approximate of 200 students.I think school is pretty amazing besides the bullies and the bossy girls and boys. My favourite sport this year would probably have to be touch because it requires teamwork and ability to have strength. But what I really love about it is that at the end of the day we are all a team and that we support each other throughout the game. Oh I also have 3

sisters . You might remember one of them, Petuana who is a year 8,Jenascia who is year 7 and Neomi who is still a preschooler.When I have free time I like to go outside for some fresh air and I like to sit on a chair and read some books. My favorite series so far is Geronimo stilton and Thea stilton chapter books.I think my attitude towards work would have to be the average of a year 6 student but a bit higher like 99% of 100. I always look forward to learning

new things!I think my teacher Mr.Beel is pretty funny and cool but sometimes to be honest I think that it gets boring when it's quiet and I have to admit, I play a little game because this is how boring it is! I don't really think that he needs to improve because he is pretty much fine!

I hope that you learned some things about me!

The dinosaur

One day it was 11:30 am in kentucky texas where there was a girl named Emma and

A boy named Jack. They came all the way from Australia for a holiday and they were

going on a tour bus to see all around the America.

When they went through the forests and over the lakes suddenly the couple spotted a

Massive creature. It wasn’t any creature, it was in the shape of a dinosaur! Wait. could

That be a dinosaur? No it couldn’t be! Dinosaurs had extinct millions of years ago so

why would it be one? As the couple walked towards the big creature to approach it

and suddenly they looked at the creature in disbelief. It was a T-rex dinosaur!

Jack nearly fell to the ground but lucky Emma caught him just in time so they could run into the tour bus and move as fast as they could ! But wait. What if they get the whole city in trouble? They tried hard to think what to do and the first thing that came up with doing is calling the army to bring massive guns,tanks  and to also bring protection for their safety.

As soon as they reached the town they let everyone know that a huge dinosaur was coming but they just laughed. They laughed and laughed until they heard the biggest roar!!! They all dropped their buckets and ran for their lives! As soon as they reached the breaking point they wanted to go faster and faster! They weren’t giving up on their lives!

When they went to a very safe place they all received water and food until their plane arrived.

They all went inside the plane and flew far away to another state. They all felt sad that they had to leave their hometown but it was worth not being eaten by a dinosaur! They all were

becoming happy and soon the whole country felt safe and they lived happily ever after!

My fractions math.

 Today Room11 did fractions with different denominators and this is what I did. I feel very proud of myself that I did all of the equations and I got all of them right.

Elstree park

This report shows what children and adults might want in the new park in Eastview that will be rebuilt in the near future. Here are some of the class suggestions.

Since the adults will take their kids to the park they might want to have a rest so the first thing that they can build is some seats so the parents don't have to stand up all the time to watch their children.

Our second suggestion is that If the adults want to exercise while

their children are playing in the playground then there could be a little fitness area in the playground. This is good so that they don't have to run out of their kids sight because they might lose their kids which could cause more trouble.

What if the children get hungry though? If the parents forgot to bring lunch for their kids then there could be a food facility with plenty of people making healthy lunches for the children so that they can fill their stomachs up with food so that they don't go hungry.  The park could have gas barbeque stations.  or/and places for food trucks to park and sell their goods.

Eating food means toilets.  There needs to be at least a few toilets to take care of the visitors.

There also needs to be fountains for both drinking water and decoration.

Thinking about the fun things now.

• There could be a flying fox for the kids so they can have lots of fun zooming up and down the line without being bored just playing on a normal slide.
• There must be a playground with soft landing for the children.
• A big slide for the big kids.
• A skatepark for the skaters.
• Basketball hoops to shoot balls.

A circuit to walk or run around the park.  With mini gyms at different points.

A stage or covered area (Fale) for people to sit, or perform.
