Forest

Crunch, yummy nuts. Ow I wonder where I can sunbathe.Oh look lovely warm sun. I can smell the fresh air. Ahh that hits the spot. Speaking about hits, why is there a big bear next to me ? That looks like he's going to hit me. "Boo," said the bear. "That's why you should never go near that very spot, ever. Okay, you hear me, never go there.

The Haunted House

Whoosh whoosh the curtain blew furiously. Oooooh,I think there are ghosts in here. Phew it was just the wind howling outside. This spooky mansion gives me the creeps. I'm out of here. This place even looks spooky from the outside.

RUN RUN RUN as fast as you can!

I have butterflies in my tummy! Because I do not want to come last.

The Lovely Pond

Quietly sitting on the straight grapevine, was one beautiful, bright green frog. Slowly but steadily she hung on with all her might. Nervously she dragged one of her long legs onto a pink and green flowery lilipad , wondering if she will get gobbled up.

Performance Day

On Monday the 30th of April we went to a performance called 'The first day of school'. It was about a boy named Winston who had a new phone and he got bullied by Denis because his phone was BIG. I enjoyed watching the show because it was funny and other children should watch it.

Performance

Yesterday we ran around the field then we walked to a performance in the hall on the stage. The show was about this boy on his first day of high school and his name is Winston. His phone is bigger than him. And his phone number 02 love Bieber " ha ha! ". The message was not to bully anyone. by Riley

First day of school

On Monday the 30th of April, some classes went to a performance called The First Day of School. The performance meant that if you bully other people it comes back to you. A little boy named Winston had a mum and dad who said he looked like Justin Bieber. They gave him a phone that was TALLER than him. One day the phone came alive! So Winston became cool so he had a contest on whose phone was best and Winston WON!!!

Performance Day

On Monday the 30th of April we went to a performance called 'The first day of school'. It was about not being mean to people because it will always come back to you and always be grateful on what you get. The actors were very funny, mean and cool. The Mum and Dad were very funny and weird as they kept on going on about Justin Bieber. The characters names were Amy, Winston and Mr Waipata :)

Cane Toads

We are reading a book called Toad Rage and we got an idea to make and stuff a cane toad.It is a really good book.We are enjoying it too.

Our classroom has changed!

On the first day of school we walked into the class and wow what a big change! It looks amazing. Everyone was going the wrong way to their tote tray like Lily and I, we were going the wrong way to the other side. All mums and Dads are welcome to come in and see.

The lego

At the beginning of the term a few people created lego cars and boats. Most people made boats. Only two children made a car. The lego looks so great.

Elephant in the Shower

Water trickled down my smooth spine, and it felt as soft as a marshmallow melting in my hot mouth. Water thundered through my rough trunk as I snorted and sneezed. I could sit here for ever with how hot it is in the boiling sun.

The beach

Swish swish help I'm stuck in a bottle. Danana danana a shark. I can save you, I'm super monkey. Gulp that was not pretty. Ah finally I made it to the beach 20 minutes later and now totally relaxing.
