Tamaki College

On Thursday the year eight students from Pt England school went to Tamaki College, we were split into three groups and each group either went to Music, English or Science.My group started off at Music where we had to come up with a rap, after we had morning tea and got a sausage and a Just Juice drink.Then we made our way to the B block of the school to an English class room.

In English we read a poem about a Lion then made our own I made one about a dragon with a heavy tail,huge wings,sharp teeth and blue eye’s.When we were finished we recorded our poem on a Mac computer.Then we moved on to science were we were made into groups.In my group was Kobe, Kevin and me next we made Hokey Pokey with golden syrup, sugar and baking soda.Next we had a competition with a helicopter powered by a balloon we lost.

Then we all met in the library with the deen Mrs George, then we made our way back to school but it was raining so we took the Tamaki College vans just in time for lunch.We had a great day and it will be fun to go there next year.

My Poem

     NZ

Where I am from I see birds soar in the sky
Where I am from I touch the fur of my dog
Where I am from I hear kids laugh and dogs barking
Where I am from I taste fish and chips
Where I am from I smell the fresh air in the meadows
Where I am from I feel tired having to wake at 6:00 o’clock every day.

The Abandoned Barn

It was Halloween, the sky was pitch black, the moon had risen suddenly lightning bolts were thundered down.Leon, Mari, Greg and Noah were a bunch of teens as soon as they saw the lightning they ran for cover under a tree.Then they saw a barn in the distance.

“Yozza Greg you know this area right” Noah said with swagger.
”oh yeah this place is really run down,but word on the street is that that barn is the scariest place in the world.”
“How do you know this, do your science nerds live in this area.”
“Were called Zoltan and yes Ned lives around here.”
“Isn't that he that person that peed his pants”Mari said.
“Hey who cares let’s just go over there and have some fun” Leon said with anger .

 Mari started to get goose bumps and Greg’s teeth were chattering and Noah tried to hide his fear, while Leon led the way.Clump clump the sound of their steps in the mud “OMG my heels are muddy now, thanks a lot Leon” “ you're welcome Mari.” he said sarcastically

They had gotten to the door and Leon pushed it open then entered, then suddenly a gust of wind slammed the door shut, but they remained calm.The whole barn was a mess there was rubble,rats, and dead cows all over the place.Suddenly Mari saw a sheet on the ground move,so she went to go and check it out.Suddenly a swarm of Black Widows scurried and hid under the floorboards “AHHHHHHH!!!”Mari screamed with fear.

“Look” Greg said the spiders came out and went into the cow's mouth then moments later they ran out then the cows eyes opened and all you could hear is a loud MOO “holy shiznit the cows alive”Naoh said then he had picked up some rubble and throw it at its head then nothing happened then Naoh touched it “NOOOO!!!” Then a thing came out of the cows mouth and ate him with a huge gulp

“AAAAHHHHH!!!” Mari screamed once again “It ate Noah” Mri said
“Go run” Leon said then he grabbed a nearby pipe and hit it with one blow.They ran into the other room and locked the door.MOO!! “ahhh” Greg said
“Shhh Mari” Leon said
“That was Greg” Mari said
“Oh” Leon said

BANG!BANG!BANG! the cow was ramming into the door the ”The hinges are going to let out at any minute” Greg said. It went silent They armed themselves Leon opened the door and the cow laid dead again on the rubble. “What just happened ?” Leon said They walked Leon lead the way with Mari at the back there was a. Bang everyone turned then something snatched Mari they ran for the door but the cow was in the way MOO.They ran for the back door but the spiders were there “Theres no way out” Greg said then he tripped over a handle “Look its a hatch” Greg said.They ran into it and closed the hatch behind them, they were in a abandoned  wine cellar there was an exit on the far side of the room.

They ran for it when suddenly the cow rammed through the hatch and the spider followed “Oh no” Greg said as they ran as fast as they could “We won’t make it” Greg said

“We can make it” Leon said they ran and Leon rammed the door smashing it into pieces.The sun rose and as soon as the cow got into the sunlight it vanished into dust and so did the spider then, the wind blew it away and what was left was Mari and Noah.


THE END OR IS IT?????

Bush Story

It was a sunny when me and my friend Kobe went camping in the damp forest we found the perfect place to set up camp it only took us 10 minutes to set up the tent so we thought we should go exploring in the forest.  

We ventured into the forest and we came across a sign that said “Danger Do NOT Proceed” we ignored the sign and continued anyway.The sun started to set and a shroud of fog surrounded us and we started to go back the way we came back soon we got lost but we remained calm.We tried to use our phones but there was no signal we tried to find help but it failed we had enough food and water to last only one day.

We made a fire with some wood and a bed with the surrounding materials.Using our fire we cooked some fish we caught.We tried to go to sleep but it was impossible with all the bug climbing on us we hoped that the fog would have cleared by the morning we woke up in the morning the sun was shining and the fog has cleared.

We saw a cabin in the distance we went to it and knocked on the door a man opened the door.We asked him “can you help us”

“Yes”he said I knew we were saved he took us to our campsites.I said to Kobe “this is an experience I am never going to forget”
