Santa's day off

 Across the building on a beach lies a man in a costume. A Santa costume. What could Santa be doing here, has he stopped being Santa or did he get fired from being Santa? Ho ho ho said Santa.

Santa can feel the blazing hot sun all over his body. Santa can see the waves smash little kids in the water. Santa stands up and kneels down to feel the crispy sea shells clash on his hands. Santa stands up and takes a little walk on the beach.

Santa can hear the little Kids scream with joy. He can hear the music being blasted from cars driving past. He stops for a minute, is that cookies? It is. Santa runs to the family and asks politely for a few. A few led to a few more and a few more. Could you believe Santa is fat again.

The beach

 On the most sunny day of the week our parents decided to go on a trip to the beach. When we got there I stepped on the bridge with my sandals. 

I could see the waves crashing down one by one. I can also see the palm trees waving like a tube balloon. As I walked I could smell the sunscreen rubbed all over the people walking past.

I could smell the strong smell of salt water up my nose. Finding a spot to sit I could hear little kids voices playing wild animals. I could also hear the crackling sound from the trees.

I can feel the soft sand against my leg. I can feel the scaly seashells rubbing on my toes.

Getting out of there was seaweed all over me. I could taste the ungrateful taste of water. Lastly we went home and got warm.

Talent quest

 It was the day of our talent quest. I was so nervous that my hands were sweating. I got ready in the bathroom and wished the other girls good luck. I had a few practices in the hallway at school.

It was time for the first item then the next and the next and finally me. I got on stage and sang. I could hear myself through the speakers. I was so surprised that I could sing.

Continuing my singing I had turned off my mic and missed some of the words. By getting  nervous I forgot the words to the song but breathing in I sang the chorus and then the song ended.

A few items later it was time for the announcing for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd. We waited for the judges to announce the winner, “ The winner is Melepalu'' I was so happy and proud I know i will join next year.

Last day of holidays

Today is the very last day of the holidays for this term. We have had lots of fun at home. It was like lock down but way more fun. I have been able to have fun and do work at home which is a good thing. Today we have done lots of cleaning and shopping. We have broken lots of stuff that needs replacing. That is why we have done lots of shopping and we do cleaning because we like to have a clean house but mainly for my sister's birthday. We have also have been learning how to work out our new smart TV because there are lots of buttons that we can't figure out what they do other then that i have lots of fun at home but way more excited to return to school.

Last week of the holidays

 This week is the last week of holidays so i tried to have as much fun before we go back to school. First of all we have been getting stuff removed from the house for  my sisters 21st birthday. We removed clothes chairs and we even put off the pictures on the wall. Once we finished that we got a 72 inch smart TV for us to have, we then gave away our normal sized TV to my sister who is turning 21 for her to watch stuff in her room. My work is all done and now we can do homework for school.

GAMES DAY!!!!!!

On Wednesday 1st of july glenbrae school had a games day. I was late to school but luckily they had not started yet. Before the games day we were told to come in our house colours which are Rata, Kauri, Kowhai and Nikau. 

Rata is red and Kauri is green, Kowhai is yellow and Nikau is blue. In class we got separated into 2 groups in each house like nikau 1  and nikau 2 stuff like that. We also got it written on our hands so we can't forget.

A few moments later we went to the hall to get some information about the games. Then came the fun part, the actual GAMES!!!!!!!! Nikau 1 versus kowhai 1 in 3 legged race where you tie your legs together with your partner and race to the other side and come back. 

Sadly we lost all of our games and got 2 points for the team and we got 2nd place for capturing the flag, Rob the nest and ant farm. At the end of everything I had fun but we didn't win. We did chants for the winning team Kowhai. All though we didn't win we still had fun.

The princess and the giant

Hidden behind the maze of branches stood a minuscule, enchanted castle. It was so easy to miss among the towering trees. At the tipsy top of the castle sitting there was an elegant princess. She was singing but before she could finish her song a tree came crashing down like a glass breaking.

She screamed so loud that she almost made her own ears bleed. Just as she got tired of screaming she wondered how and who did it? The princess was getting more curious and more. She was terrified because it might come back. The princess didn't get that much sleep the next day  or after that day. It was like she was haunted or something.

The princess was a mess, her eyes were black and her hair was messed up. She looked nothing before the incident. Suddenly the floor started to rumble. Just after the shaking stopped the princess went to check it out. She stood outside speechless. HUMONGOUS MONSTER!!! Yelled the princess.

With no hesitation she ran inside. The giant also yelled but it was more like he was crying or something. The princess tried to offer some food for the giant to go. As soon as it was night the princess had ran out of stuff to offer, even offered her precious jewels but it wasn't enough.

Finally she pulled out her gigantic Bear that her father bought her for her birthday. She shoved it through the window. At last the giant was happy and would never be lonely. 

23 degrees and 5 minutes

In the north pole during a massive blizzard a man suddenly appeared. The man was covered in snow and he looked sick. What could he be doing in the storm? The man was then sent back to when he was younger. During the flashback there was a professor teaching in a university about science. Something about the states of matter which are solids, liquids and gases. A man then stood up to correct him about the states of matter. 

After the class the professor looked through some exams. All papers had the wrong answer until he pulled one of the papers out with the answer 23 degrees and 5 minutes. Something started to happen and the professor started to see those numbers everywhere. 23rd of may and stuff like that. He made the person who got the answer 23:5 to be his assistant. He found a way to convince the man to be his assistant.

They did heaps  of research about the numbers. When they finally found that they had to search the north pole they were excited until the professor disappeared. As the years passed the man went to look for the professor in the north pole that comes until now. The man died as if he was dead. Before he took his last breath he looked up and saw the professor , he then laughed and talked for a little then he realised that the professor was in a Santa costume. Then 2 men pulled him out of the snow and took him back to the ship.I guess we never knew what happened to the professor.

The windmill farmer

There once was a farmer who planted a bunch of windmills by his house. He watered them everyday from spring to summer to autumn. It started to get big through the seasons. It was going to soon be winter so of course it was going to rain. It was getting pretty gloomy and it was gonna rain. The farmer ran outside to check on them but they slowly broke off one by one.

Each one was like tearing a piece of his heart. All the pieces flew off like an airplane crashing. The farmer turned glum. He sadly went inside with his head down then came the snow but something happened during that day. The leftover parts started to grow. It was a miracle.

Out came the farmer, still sad from the tragedy, sighing and went back inside. It was after winter when the farmer took a look outside. He suddenly fell into tears, there were windmills all over the hills. He jumped with excitement and cheered up. All of his sadness was cleared.

Winter writing

I can see the ice on the mountain slowly starting to melt. I can hear my legs struggling as I walk to the distance. I can feel the breeze clashing against my skin. I taste the ice on my tongue as it slowly turns into ice. I smell the dirt hiding in the bushes. I can also hear the birds chirping crazy. I see the water starting to clear out of the path. I can feel goosebumps running up to my face.

The tired I got the more I wanted to stop and lay on the floor. My lips slowly turned blue. I couldn't help but to slow down and warm up my lips. I started  to get warm enough that I decided to continue the hike. As I panted and  walked  I could smell something great. It was like a pot of cookies. what could it be? Looking left to right I found the smell. It was a bunch of flowers in the bushes. Ending my trip with a cup of hot cocoa by the fire and a nice big sleep.                                                                               

     

Winter poem

Winter season starts on the 1st of June
 Ice all over the green grass
Nice and warm inside by the heater
Toasting my feet by the hot fire
Eating some leftover food to keep my warm
Rolling on the floor pretending to its snow

Queens birthday

Last week on the queen's birthday my family and I pretty much did nothing but do our normal routine. At first we do our breakfast which is either pancakes, toast or cereal. Once we do that we have a little TV time. That's what we have for the morning.

Next we have some exercise and clean the backyard because we like to keep clean. Then we just want to have some fresh air so we have lots free time.

After all that we got cleaned and took a shower but since it was the queen's birthday we watched some documents of her which was very enjoyable.

Lastly we had dinner and today's dinner was some chicken soup yummy. We get tucked in and ready for school tomorrow. That's what I did for the queen’s birthday.

One bored polar bear

Over the cold mountain came a very lonely polar bear who was looking for some fish. The polar bear was standing and putting its head into a hole where he was trying to catch the fish but with his mouth

I was so freezing in the hole that when he came out( With three fish in his mouth) little bits of ice were on his white body hair. He then dropped the fish and went to the remote side of the arctic. Then came a breathtaking igloo. It was so beautiful the bear wanted to tear it down. As he was about to tear it down heavy snow started to come down. He knew it was gonna be very snowy so he walked back to his place.

It was so quiet at his place so he tried to entertain himself. The polar bear thought and thought about what he should do. It is very hard to think in the bitter and chilly snow so he couldn't think of anything. The polar bear suddenly felt snow fall from the roof he then realised that there was hole in the roof and the heavy snow was starting to come which is pretty dangerous. The polar bear quickly got some ice and put it into the hole and it was all gone and also his boredom.

The busy zoo

At the zoo where me and my class were on a trip. We were flying everywhere like noisy monkeys. The zoo was more busy than it was the last time I was there it was even crowded but that was the same from when I was here before. We walked by some of the wild lions and then came across the red butt monkey which I think is a baboon.

 We kept walking until we got to our station where we would eat and stuff. We got a map so we knew where we're going. We got to see a peacock. It was so beautiful and majestic which I loved. We got to our station and we found out some pretty facts about some animals like an alligator has a V shaped mouth and a crocodile has a U shaped mouth. It was so fascinating.

 As we explored we got a fright from one of the lions who was roaring all the way down in its pit. We had a chance to see a very dangerous tiger. It was wonderful.  We got our break and explored the places we haven't seen yet. We stopped at the monkeys who were in their cage. They were so enjoyable and funny. The giraffes were very entertaining they were so tall but yet they still ran fast. I had an exciting day and also interesting i felt very free this trip was very fantastic.  

Staying home

Well first of all I am not going to school. I am very sad that I am not going to school but I can still learn at home.

I am looking forward to keeping my chromebook for even longer than I was supposed to have it.

I am not looking forward to getting my chromebook taken off me when i go to school which is probably at level one or zero.

I am looking forward to still seeing my friends over the internet after their time at school.
