Holly's holiday






DAY ONE: Today we woke up at 7.30 and we drove to Whangarei we saw dad start his race here. Then we went in the car to go to Dargaville to meet him there, because that was where he finished his race. Dad was very tired after his bike race.


Then we went to Bayly's beach where we stayed that night. It was very small, but that was ok. Then I helped Kath to do the dinner it was yum. After that Alex and I went on the swing, it went high. Then I got in to my pjs and we went outside to look at the stars. We saw six satellites in the sky there were so many stars we saw the Milky Way it looked awesome, I had never seen it before.




DAY TWO: Today we woke up at 6.30 I didnt sleep very well there were to many bugs biting me and every one. In the morning I had breakfast and then I brushed my teeth and we packed the car. 

Dad went to the start line for his next bike race. We went in the car and then started driving to Opononi to meet him at the finish line. On the way we went to see the Tane Mahuta tree. It looked huge, it was a 5min walk to get there, it was amazing, it must be over 100 years old. Then we went back to the car and kept on driving. When we got to the finish line there was a beach near the finish so we went and had a look. The water felt cold, then we walked back to the finish and dad arrived over the finish line.












DAY THERE: Today we woke up at 7.30 and then we packed the car and went to start to drive to Paihia. On the way there was a water fall so we went to have a look at it. It looked stunning. Then we went back to the car to drive to the finish to see dad come in.  Then we went to where we were going to stay. After that dad took us to the Waitangi treaty grounds. We got given sheets to fill out as we walked and had a look at the waka. It looked cool with all of its carvings on it. I had never been there before. After we looked at every thing we walked back to cheek our answers. Then we went back to the car and drove back where we were going to stay  



DAY FOUR: Today was raining so dad didn't do his bike race, so we went to the finish line and watched dad's friends come in. Then we went and got some lunch and went home sweet home.

Bubble story!

Pop!Pop! was the sound I heard when I blew my AWESOME bubbles.I took the most biggest breath and blew . Whoosh came a HUGE bubble nearly the same size as Me! I took a look at the city and went in the bubble. I tried rolling in it when suddenly,the bubble flowted up in the air and I was in it! ''Help,help'' I called as I drifted away.I was so scared I fainted. About 10 mins later I saw bright green grass and a shiny blue waterfall in front of me.I swam into the water. I gleamed at this magical place.Then I realized  it was getting dark and I closed my eyes and slept.
Who is this!''Whats that creature'' shouted very disgusting creatures. Just imagine, a small creature about 15cm tall,but NOT a baby, Head of a rhino and body of  bright pink branches. ''Um'' I said.''GET OUT OF HERE!'' one screamed.''STOP!'' screamed a tall evil looking lady.''move over'' she said. She looked at me angrily.''What do you think your doing'' she asked. ''I  was in a...'' I said until she said,Come to my office''. It was a tall building I starred at it amazed. In her office were only two colours red and black. She leaned on her desk and asked me what happened. I started to tell her what happend .She looked puzzled. She clapped slowly.She went to a closet and took out an photo album.'Open it''she said calmly. I opened it. There were heaps of BORING photos of her blowing bubbles and in 1 picture there was  her INSIDE A BUBBLE! I looked at her.''ha ha ha '' she laughed.''Tea time'' called one. ''Since your here would you like to join us for tea?''she asked.''sure I said.I sat down.They gave my this green and a bit of orange soup with plums sticking out.I didn't want to eat it.''Try it''Try it'' they chanted.''Okey'' I said and took a sip.''Yum'' I said. I was not lying.I spent 1 day with them and realized they were funny and very friendly.''Hi I am Wizard John and I have magic to make you go back to earth'' he said. ''This is a box that will make you able to visit any time you like,you put your hand in it and it will bring you here''. I took the box and waved to them and came bake to my real home.

Fiji festivals are amazing
In Fiji we have coconuts but we
Just visit Fiji and spend time with my family
It's a tropical country

The 7 Types Of Sea Turtles


The favourite part of me

"Hi my name is M.m.t and my prized part of my body is my brain because it helps me think,The way I think is quite weird, and it feels a bit funny. What I think about is when I think when I think it does sound weird but what it means is why do we think? Why do we get into these big discussions whether it's in a speech or what I'm writing to you about right now. Ok, just think you got rid of your brain you'll be as dumb as a nut and we wouldn't have electronics like we have today and we wouldn't have the amazing structures like we have today. You wouldn't have any delicious food. The world itself wouldn't be the same. Now lets get out of that. Lets talk about what
would happen if we kept our brain, we will have a future we will keep what we have and will have a life to live in these conditions and that's why I think our brain is more important than any thing in the world".

Tiara's Crown

Once upon a time there was a girl called Tiara she had a mum and dad and a older sister called Maria. Tiara was ten years old and her sister was eighteen years old they both had their own room. Tiara had a chest but she doesn't open it because her grandma said that when she is eleven years old she could open it and Tiara's Birthday was tomorrow. Tiara had two friends called Vanessa and Victoria they had been friends since Preschool. Tiara and her mum went shopping while Maria was at University and dad went to work everyday. When Tiara and her mum came back from shopping mum was going to make dinner and Tiara was chatting to Vanessa and Victoria on skype. In a hour Maria came home and she was stressed out. She went to her room and went to sleep. Mum asked Tiara ''could have a family pet'', Tiara was jumping up and down so mum put a note for Maria and they went to the pet store. Mum asked ''we could have a cat'' Tiara didn't want a cat they are too lazy. Tiara replied '' can we have a puppy'' mum decided '' ok puppy it is ''. Tiara was so excited! they arrived at the store there were heaps of puppies Tiara chose a fox terrier. ,''what should we name her'' asked mum, Tiara thought for a while and then she answered ''How about Sparkles'' and mum smiled. After they came home Tiara fed Sparkles then she went on the phone and called her friends. When Victoria and Vanessa came to Tiara's house they saw Sparkles and they said ''aww this puppy is so cute'', Tiara giggled. After her friends left Tiara gave Sparkles her dinner and Maria had her dinner and so did Tiara and everyone went to bed. The next morning Tiara woke up late she went to the kitchen and then ''surprise!'' everyone said. Tiara danced happily. Mum,dad,Maria and Sparkles made Tiara a special breakfast it was Tiara's favourite waffles and a scoop of ice cream. When Tiara finished eating she got ready for her party before they left Tiara opened her chest she found a note inside, it said ''Happy Birthday Tiara your gift is inside the box, love from Granny'' Tiara found the box she opened it her eyes were sparkling like the stars shining. her gift was a crown! But it was not a playing crown it was a real crown. When Tiara put on her crown she imagine that she became a Queen in a kingdom. As she was looking around she saw a pool,a beautiful garden,a bed room and a big city then Tiara saw a lady and she said ''hello your majesty would you like a swim in the pool?'' and Tiara asked '' are you talking to me?'' '' yes your majesty'' replied the lady '' um im ok'' mumbled Tiara she took off her crown. It was time for them to go to the party. After the party everyone was tired so they got ready for bed and went to sleep. The next morning Tiara and Maria got ready for school, Tiara fed Sparkles they went to school. At school Tiara told her friends about the dream she had her friends said ''we will come to your place''. After school Tiara's friends came over and they went to Tiara's room. Tiara put on her crown then she touched her pencil and the pencil froze, Victoria said ''looks like your Queen dream was really a dream'' '' wow I have powers cool! cried Tiara. When Tiara's friends left she was trying her powers '' Im flying!'' Tiara giggled Sparkles was confused just then the door bell rang when Tiara opened the door it was her enemy Sarah Williams and she had dark powers. '' Hi Tiara guess what, I've got the answer sheet for the test tomorrow so ill pass and you will fail hahahaha'' sneered Sarah '' You can't do that your cheating!'' shouted Tiara, but Sarah ran then flew away '' Oh no! she can't cheat'' thought Tiara she put on her crown and followed Sarah '' Stop!'' yelled Tiara. Sarah flew faster but Tiara used her fire power then Sarah fell ''Ouch!'' scremed Sarah. '' I won't allow you to cheat'' demanded Tiara. Sarah went home with a grumpy face. Tiara put the answer sheet in the classroom and went home. Next morning Tiara got ready for school and Maria and Tiara went to school. At school she was doing her test and finished her test just in time. It was morning tea, she saw her teacher put up the results. She ran and found her name '' Tiara Hudgens 100/100 YAY! I passed'' shouted Tiara and even her friends passed they were so happy and they had the best day ever!

My favourite part of my body...

Hello my favourite part of my body is my legs. My legs are awesome and when I am swimming they help me to kick. I use them when i'm walking and running. They help me when i'm running because they sometimes help me to win Cross Country races. I like my legs because they are quite useful for me. I can also use them by dancing because they help me to wobble. My legs go everywhere with me, so that means that if i go to Australia, they will come with me. They help me to win different races such as swimming races, bike races and much more. My legs also make me jump. I like them because they do everything for me. I love my legs!

My Remote Control

Well, hello everybody my name is Hayley and I have just invented a new remote control and the name I have chosen for this unbelievable thing that could just be our future is the "Zoomagi." Cool right? Now I must tell you something extremely important. So are you ready for the news, "yes" I can hear you all saying. Well the news is that the Zoomigi is mine and mine only. Ah now that I've told you that news I should get on to telling you how the "Zoomigi" works. Well how this spectacular thing works is when you press a country or a place you're automatically going to be there. For an example if i just wanted a small break I could choose from the 9 beautiful places on my remote Disney Land, Hawai'i, Fiji, Rarotonga, Gold Coast, Perth, Croatia, Paris and Auckland also known as home. Well ok folks I'm sorry to say but that's all the I have for today, so make sure you remember me and my special remote.

Remote writing

My remote is made of clear glass and it is the size of my palm! This remote is revolutionary in charging, it has four solar panels that can soak up sun and moonlight. I have invented this remote to make my life easier. I mean have you ever wanted to watch TV and you just can't find the remote? That's happened to me as well, but now I have this remote so that just makes life easier. I just pull it out of my pocket, press a button and then the TV turns on, no more loosing remotes! This remote can also control minds! And also if you've got a computer and you want to present something without going back and forth to get to your computer well this remote can do it, just pull it out of your pocket, press a button and you can control your computer, easy as that! Also another feature is teleportation now you may think I'm crazy but I'm not. Transportation is for when you want to get somewhere but you don't have any way of getting there and kids this is for you, is your dad or mum always late to pick you up? Mine are, well you just activate the transportation function and say where you want to go and the next thing you know your at your destination! So easy way to sum it up is the remote is solar powered, has a electronics control function, a mind control function and a teleportation function.

My favourite part of my body is my birthmark. I like my birthmark because when I look at photos with my family we can tell its me! My birthmark is under my left eye.

Fairy falls


Yesterday the year 5 and 6 went to Fairy Falls.  We got there we had to find our parents. Then we went off in the forest. 

See:
We saw leaves and trees and lots of other classes. The best thing we saw was the waterfall. It was going down. There was another waterfall and another one and then it ended by the stream. We tried to go across the stream with the help of our parents. 

A spider was on Maceo's hat. We put it down on a leaf and the spider went away. It was so funny. 

Heard:
We heard leaves blowing from the trees and we heard some water run down the fairly falls.I heard lots of people talking.I also heard bird in the tree chirping.

My Favourite Part Of My Body

Well, my name is Sky, Annelise's blue eyes. I'm her favourite part of her body! Why you ask? Well...  the first reason why is because I help her see. Seeing is a very useful skill. Secondly Annelise's favourite colour is blue. When Annelise wears blue people notice me more. The last reason why is because I'm unique. Most people have plain brown eyes but I am interesting. If you look extremely close you can see light swirls. I am slimy so NO ONE wants to touch me. I am constantly being used because if she didn't use me she would be very sore from constantly walking into poles. (she is very clumsy you know). I am also very easy to use. Annelise just opens her eye lids and I do the rest of the work. Now I'm feeling quite tired from explaining how amazing I am. Time to shut down. Good night.
