Our Rainbows End Trip.

Yesterday we year 7’s went to Rainbows End for our end of year trip. But first we started the day off with team assembly, voting for 2020 leaders, and the roll. So after all of that we waited for our buses to arrive and then we were off.

Finally it was time to go in to Rainbows but before that we had to do a security check, and they would come around and give you a purple wristband. The security check was to see if any of us had any spray, pencil cases, or sharp things. Then it was time to go and do heaps of fun things, but we had to stick with our little group for the whole day. I was in a group with Egen (our parent helper) and some of the year 7 girls in our home class.

We all went off and started to go the rides around Rainbows End, our first ride was the Log Flume, and then the Invader. It was the last ride before morning tea and it was a Roller Coaster, and there was a long line but a short time on it. Morning tea was in our bags so we went to go and sit down and eat our food together. 

The next rides were the stratosphere and the gold rush because we wanted to go and buy food from the shop, so we only rode on 2. The stratosphere was the scariest because it our first time for some of us going on the extreme one. We bought hot chip and donuts from the shop and that was our lunch, also some food from our bag.

An hour went pass and it was nearly time to go so we all went to go and watch some other kids from our school on the bumper boats. It was time to go and we all packed up and went to the entrance of Rainbows End. Our teachers checked the role and called our names if we were all here again, then we went on the bus making our back to school.

Keyhole Narrative.

Keyhole Narrative-

It all began when I was at school and let me tell you this, I've never been so frightened before just because of this that doesn’t mean I was so scared (but was I). 

It was about 8:30 am and I was at school getting ready for the first block of the day which was Literacy/reading and writing. Then I noticed that I forgot to get my books at home this morning so I asked my teacher Miss Charlotte if I could go to the library. But then she actually needed to go too and so did my friend Mary, so we popped out of class for a bit and went off. As we got there, my other friend (Nevaeh) she was reading a book and so we went to go and sit next to her and talk while our teacher was talking the library lady too. When we sat next to her Mary and I looked at the book she was reading and it was this big brown weird looking book with a magic map on it and other things, so we asked what it was about but she was too focused on it. Anyway as went looking for the books that we needed, but something strange was going on at the same time.

We looked around and everything was just quite, then we ran back to Nevaeh and she read up to this page that was actually a spell and we didn’t think that it would be real. Suddenly the page that she was on was the spell bit and everything was changing and it went pitch black all of a sudden.

Everyone was on this small island and it was floating around, me and my friends, plus Miss Charlotte was so scared and confused at the same time. We looked at eachother and we made our way into this cave thing. After that we had a map, the map that was on the front page of the book, I got up and started to look around. It looked like we were in this other world, because we've never seen anything like this before in our lives. Now we looked at the map and started to read what it said, it says that we have to try and get the keep that was with in a keyhole if we wanted to get out of this world.

Okay, we have to do this we all said together, and then we took the map and went off further into the cave. Finally we could see some clues on the map because we’ve accomplished the first stage and we were so happy to see that we were working together as a team. But then that wasn’t all because it was the only stage and when we saw the keyhole all of us started jumping happily because we all wanted to go home. So then we got closer and closer to the keyhole and we did it!.

The End.

Minaiakalani Film Festavil 2019.

Today we went to Sylvia Park Cinemas to have the 12 annual Manaiakalani Film Festavil Day, but we year 7, 8, and 6's went for an hour. In the morning we left school like about 9:30 am, we hopped on the bus and drove off to Sylvia Park.

Once we arrived there all of us started walking towards the colourful poles and then we could start up our 2 lines. As we walked into the mall we all saw some other schools that are part of the Manaiakalani films, and after we came up from the stairs we entered the Cinemas and it was packed in there. But when we went further into the movies we had to line up and wait for the other schools to go in the cinema rooms. Finally we walked into the room and we were combined with St Pius X Catholic School, everyone sat on a seat and waited for a bit.

Until it was time the movies began and the presenters started to go on stage, once a team of presenters have been finished talking their movie would come up and show what they have talked about in their speech. After the movie everyone would clap and cheer for the when each movie has been done.

Now it was time to go back to school and it then have morning tea, but we didn't go outside because we got back to school like after 11:30 am ( the normal time we finish morning tea). So we all headed out of the cinemas and started going onto the bus, the bus that me and some other students from other classes went in this nice cool bus. Because Mrs Ilaoa asked the one of the bus drivers if we could go on because it was empty, so we made our on and start driving to school. It was a fun journey travelling to Sylvia Park and back, also it was fun to see different kind of movies, even from other schools.

We arrived at school and it was time to start eating our morning tea, then once we have finished we could start waiting for the other half of Team 5 to get back from Sylvia Park. After the wonderful time at the cinemas we have spent the rest of the day blog commenting on other movies and also from other schools, but not only that but also writing about the day we have had.

Narrative Writing - My Sister Big Day.

My Sisters Big Day-

It was a Sunday morning and Milly was so excited, she was so hyped that she came jumping on me like a wild bull. This happened all because she was going to have her first recital with her new ballet group, ever since she had joined the group she loved it. But I am not the person for those kind of things I like doing other things, and there we go again another crazy morning with her rushing everywhere. Me and Milly raced down stairs because we could smell pancakes for breakfast, we both sat on the table eating up everything. We were stuffed so Milly and I went back up stairs to get ready for Milly’s big day. 

Finally we hopped in the car and dad drove us to school, where the recital was. When we arrived there, my sister went sprinting like a cheetah all the way to the hall, where the rest of the group was getting ready. She was talking with her teacher after me and dad came out of the car, and even her friends were so happy to see her too. The group came out and there were a lot of other ballet groups in too, because they are going to have a competition against each other.

After the group finished getting ready, Milly came out in a stunning outfit that was pink, just like the rest. It was time to take our seats so dad and I got a seat right in front of the stage. Up first was this cute ballet group with blue sparkly outfits and I think the captain of the group was wearing a white sparkly outfit. For a while we have seen 3 groups and they were all great, but Milly’s team was saved the best for last and so they didn’t go on until 3 more groups were done.

Me and dad was so surprised for all the groups but also waiting to see the best group ever, Milly’s group. It was like 10 o’clock and we were so thirsty that we got a drink at the vending machine near the toilets. Then we came back to our seats and sat down watching a group with pretty purple feathery outfits all around. Up next was Milly’s group and they are the last group to be seen out of all 7 groups, so dad got out his phone and started to take videos and pictures.

But before they went on stage Milly realised something, she didn’t have any ballet shoes and if she didn’t have them she wouldn’t be able to dance. She rushed to her bag and checked if they were in there, but there only had been her pink nike sports shoes. The time was ticking and everyone was waiting, I went into the changing rooms and there she was crying because she had left her ballet shoes at home. It would take some time to drive all the way back home, so I had a talk with her and said that she could be herself and dance in the shoes that she had got there already. I told her that if anyone laughs at my little sister that it’s okay because I'll be there for her watching how well she can dance. After a little bit we hugged and she raced back to the group to get ready to dance, they went up and they all danced beautifully even my sister Milly.
