Vampire Hotel

Vampire Hotel




On one cold night in the school holidays, Bella, Morgana, Alice and Emma went out to the movies. They went to see movies called vampire hotel. They were all screaming at each other because it was not scary at all, so they were trying to scare people. Then when they were leaving someone pushed them into a room and locked it. They were so scared Alice was making funny jokes. Bella was crying, Morgana was bleeding. Emma was looking for a way out. Alice and Morgana were talking about what they were going to do when they got out. While Everyone else was looking for a way out.




Then while they were looking some blood thirsty vampire came in and then they grabbed Alice and dragged her into a locked room. They were screaming and trying to get her out. They could hear her being bitten. They were all freaking out and did not know what to do. So they just sat waiting for her to come out. But she didn't so now they knew she would not come out and she was dead. But then about six months later all the girls hungry and feel like every day that passes they are dying.




Then Alice came out of the room looking horrible all pale and then she started to bite Morgana. Then she came out, then Morgana started to turn Bella into a vampire. Once all of them were fed and not hungry it was Bella’s turn to turn Emma into a vampire. So once they were all turned into vamps. They started to look for a way out then they were free.

My Poem

The Wind

I feel the crisp wind hitting my  face

As I walk through the damp forest,

My thoughts so loud

My head is pounding 

The wind is freezing 

Like a tunnel of cold air

As I walk, fear filling up inside me

I feel so close yet I am so far away,

It will be dark soon,

I need to find my way back

Or I will be lost out here forever

I am beginning to feel alone

It’s like I'm sinking into a world full of tears,

My eyes feel so heavy

Amazing Race

Amazing Race

We went to the amazing race on Wednesday the 16 of November. We were put into groups and then we were given a team leader from the high school. They did an amazing job. I was in a team with billy Lachlan and kyah. We all made a wrap,chant our one was kiwis kiwis we are kiwis yay. Our country was New Zealand.The activities were all different. There was a haka one we had to get the poses in the right order. Then there was a chop stick lolly race were you had to hole a lolly with chopsticks and run while doing an obstacle course. The we did bowls you had get your colour closest to the jack. We had to kick balls at the fence and try to hit targets that had points on it. The next one was a fruit bowl it had fruit in it and then we used a towel to hold it on our heads and run through the obstacle. My Favourite one was the lolly one because we got lollies at the end. My team got second place.

Rat Eradication

We had made rat traps and then we set them out. Thank you to the year thirteens from the high school for helping us. We are trying to get rid of all rats so we don't have a rat problem.

Duffy Books

Today we got Duffy books. we got given two Duffy books from yesterday because we were not at the Duffy show We get a magazine every term and we have to chose four books and we get the two top ones and then if they don't have them we get the other choices. We are so lucky to get Duffy books because we are a Duffy school. The are free for us. Every year we have a Duffy show and we get them every term. People all around New Zealand get 12 million plus Duffy books. They are given to over 100,000 new Zealand children three times a year. The books I received were Liars by Jack Heath Jurassic World The Evolution Of Claire By Tess Sharpe.

My Space Argument

Space Exploration

( My Argument )

We are spending 25.4 billion dollars in today's money that is 135 billion dollars on space exploration and the suits are costing 12 million each. I think that we should be spending money on Space exploration.

Because even though people say that we are trashing our own planet and that we should be spending the money on helping the people in our planet and fixing it by spending that money on cleaning. But do you really think that everyone is going to stop littering and they are going to look after our world. We have plastic floating Island in our sea we are not going to be able to get rid of all of it. We have lots of rubbish we need to sort it out. So that is one reason why I think we should keep spending money on space exploration.

We need to keep space exploration going so that we can search for another planet in case this one is destroyed and if we keep going at the rate we are it is going to be destroyed, anyway if we can find a planet that has oxygen, water and plant life and food and everything we need to live. As earth's population is increasing by the day. There is even a law going in that people can’t have anymore babies.Because pretty much everyday there is a new child in this world and every year it is increasingly 82 million our current population is 7.7 billion. That is my second reason why we should keep spending the money.

Humans are explorers, we are explorers we need to keep exploring planets so that we can try and find a new planet and space is helping with all of our technology and help make new ting and discovering new materials. Space had very useful objects and materials just floating around. So as we keep discovering new things the old ways are slipping away and things are getting easier. We all like an adventure every once and awhile well I certainly do. This was my third reason why we should spend money on it.

Space mining, people are begging to do space mining witch is when are combing space and digging out all of the useful material out of asteroids, meteors and other. All of that is used for our technology and discovering new things and making new things. They are finding allfirent kind of metal and even new types. They are mining for natural resources. There is thought to be at least $700 billion worth of metals and materials.

Space exploration help our earth by taking pictures and videos so that we can find out what is happening in our planets and the weather and temperatures that are coming our way. Every time we go to space we find out more about it and what is up there. It is also helping connect all of the nations so we can all come together and find a solution for our small world that we are in.We all live in that same world it's not fair to the people that want to fix it up and the ones who just trash it that is my fifth reason why we should spend the money.

So that Is why I think we should keep spending the money on it. We have too much rubbish and I don’t think that everyone will help fix that is why climate change and global warming is happening. We are going to end up destroying this planet we keep going how we are now. Our population is increasing by the day. We are explorers we all need adventures. There is space mining so that we can have more materials to work with when we are making things. It also helps tell the weather and our temperatures.
