100 years time....

100 YEARS LATER! Every town on earth was white green and blue, there were tall buildings and lots of different technology. It was a really interesting world and people could read other people's mind it is amazing how scientist do it.


The world has changed and getting bigger and bigger, the islands were the same and stayed beautiful. The Cook Islands, Tonga, Fiji and the other Islands didn’t have any special technology and that’s the way the islanders liked it. Nothing changed in the islands.


The world had a weird world and it wasn’t normal like back in 2017. Schools were boring and children had to do adult learning. Kids hated school but only smart kids enjoy hard learning. It was a funky world.


Everybody had their very own robot the robots were made to do anything. People were made to breathe any type of air only if they get a special injection they could hold their breath for almost two hours. People could also breathe any air on any planet outer space it was incredible.


Every waste rubbish got burnt in a big room and the rubbish will turn into ashes or go away after the people wet the rubbish, that is how the world didn’t get polluted. Cameras are everywhere spying on people so they don’t drop a single piece of rubbish. If someone spot’s someone dropping rubbish they get punished.

There were flying hover boards and flying cars everywhere. Towns had underwater travel trains to
get to other countries. There were luxury planes, trains and spa’s.

Task Description: This is just a free writing, I came up with random ideas and came up with this story. I had fun writing this story. I hope you enjoyed it.

On Week five the week of year six camp all year sixes went to Kawau Island. We first traveled on a bus then ate morning tea then jumped on a fairy boat it was fun. I was lucky because I got to sit on the top of the boat.

We arrived at Kawau Island we first cleared the boat and took all the big bags off then we got into our lines getting ready to do our hike. I was so unprepared and so not ready. I was nervous I was thinking ohh this is gonna be hard. Nick Minute my legs were exhausted and tired I just wanted to fall.  I still made it after the big hike we had a nice cool relaxing swim and jumped off the wharf.

My Timetable Certificate


Immersion Assembly - Recount.

Walt: use adjectives to improve our descriptive writing
WALT: use exciting language in a recount
Have you ever had a Immersion Assembly before? Well today at school we had Immersion Assembly, and this term our topic is Musical Madness. I am looking forward to this term.

Our school theme is all about music and creating different types of music. Suddenly it was time for Team 1 to come up the stage the teacher’s played cards and when they got sad, happy, angry and bored the music would match their feelings. Team 2 is creating instruments. Team 3
Used some lyrics from each song and the teachers talked to each other using the lyrics in their movie. I like Team 5 because it as funny and Mr Wiseman was throwing the popcorn around, and they played different songs using the lion king movie.

Team 4 created a movie the teachers were relaxing in the vehicle and driving at a smooth speed. This term we will be creating different types of instruments and creating cool music. I am really excited.

I would like to learn how to make all sorts of instruments. I also hope to learn how to create music. I hope we don’t have to perform.

I am really excited and really looking forward to this term and I cannot wait. I think the theme is cool interesting and fun. I can’t wait to create songs and instruments.
Task Description: This is my recount about Immersion Assembly. Me and my class did a paragraph at a time to get it perfect. We are practicing to write recounts for our test.

Inline image 1
On Tuesday the 19th of September the 5&6 extension class had a Paideia Seminar after lunch.

Stardome PMI

Walt: We are learning to do a PMI.
Task Description: This is my PMI about our trip to Stardome. A PMI stands for Positive paragraph, M stands for something you didn't enjoy or like, I stands for something interesting that happened. 

Stardome Trip!

Walt include a variety of sentence types in our writing

On Thursday September the 14th half of room 8 and 7 went to Stardome at One Tree Hill. We went to Stardome to learn more about space because our theme for Term 3 is Guardians of the Galaxy.  Have you ever been to Stardome before?

When we arrived at CornWall Park Mr Goodwin gave us 20 minutes to play on the park. It was fun and had a mini train. Everyone was playing on everything. I just tried to have lots of fun and tried to get on everything but unfortunately I couldn't. I went on this slide that I wish was longer but I still had lots of fun.

After our little fun we went entered Stardome. We had to go in this little room where this man talks to us about the 8 planets in the Solar System.  The man that was taking us taught us about Gas Giants. The Gas Giants planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune. Those 4 planets have only Gas it the planet and no rocks at all so it is not possible to stand on. We had a quiz and my group of girls got the answers right and fast.   

On our way to the next room I saw laid down chairs that looked comfy as. I was so excited to watch the little clip. After the movie clip I went straight to sleep while the man was showing space and the stars. I wanted to look but I was too tired and kept sleeping.

I learnt about Gas Giants and Other planets. I had fun and I would like to go to Stardome again it is cool and I learnt lot’s. Next time I go I will be excited to watch a new movie clip again then go to sleep, just like I did on Thursday.

Task Description: This is my recount about our trip to Stardome. Before we wrote our recount we thought of some vocabulary for our story to make it interesting. After that we wrote our story and went hard, then we check our punctuation and make sure that it made sense.

X-Country

Walt: structure a recount

Last week on Friday we had our cross country running race. It was really hot, but really muddy and wet. Have you ever done cross country before?

Before the year 6 girls raced we played games and chatted a lot. I was really nervous, but excited at the same time. I watched some of the little kid’s racing and it was interesting. I enjoyed playing hand games with my friends. I was happy seeing my Mum my aunty my nana and my sister coming to support me. Suddenly Mrs Nua  came and called the year 6 girls to follow her to the start line. On Your Marks….. Get Set…... GO! The clapper went CLAP!

I sprinted my way around the first cone it was muddy and went all over my legs, SPLAT! I ran on the bike track and out of the gate we went. It was so muddy I thought my shorts were covered in mud. I found it hard running in the mud because my feet kept getting stuck. I was tired and exhausted I didn’t want to stop at all so I continued.

Near the finish line my friend Amelia was in front of me I wanted to gas her before we finish the race. I sprinted my hardest and boom I just got past and came 6th, Amelia came 7th. I was so happy because I completed the race. I went straight to the water station because I was thirsty,and then went to my mum and sister and said hi, they said that they were very proud of me.

I learnt that I should not sprint in the start and jog then sprint the other half. I will do that next time or I will just practice more and sprint the whole way next year. I will also try harder so I can get closer to the person that’s in the lead.

Task Description: This is my recount about Pt England Cross Country. Room 7 had to make our writing interesting. Please Leave a positive comment below.

Bunny 1 and Bunny 2 had their big rocket just for 2. It’s black and blue ready for blast off. 5,4,3,2,1 BLAST OFF!

Landing on a rocky planet this is not the right planet. Bunny 1 and Bunny 2 felt the heat go right through. Mercury the smallest and nearest planet to the sun. Bunny 1 and Bunny 2 can’t breathe without their suit. Off they went to planet 2.

On planet 2 Bunny 1 and Bunny 2 landed on VENUS! Bunny 1 sat down to have a rest, AWWWWW! My BUM BUM. Bunny 2 said “We can’t breathe with out our suit, off we go to planet 2 the 2nd planet from the sun”.

BOOM! “What a crash at least our rocket is still healed” said Bunny 1. “Mars the 3rd planet from th e sun” yelled Bunny 2.  Bunny 1 said “I am pretty sure this is the 4th planet from the sun. Bunny 2 said “not this planet it is pretty plain and we can’t breathe without our suit off we go to planet 5.

Bunny 1 said “we are on the largest planet wee pee we have had a very long travel”. Bunny 1 and Bunny 2 both said “I miss Earth let’s go to 3 more planet’s and go home. “Off we go to planet 6” they said happily.

“Wow look at the ring’s the rings are made out of rocks this book says” said Bunny 2. They hopped and yelped playing tag on Saturn’s Rings. Suddenly they some how landed in their rocket “OFF WE GO TO PLANET 7” they said together.

“Wow look at this pretty blue planet” said Bunny 1. “Cold Cold Cold” said Bunny 2. “OK off we go to planet 8” said Bunny 1.

“Wow look at us we have discovered all these 8 planets” said Bunny 2. “Yea i’m really hungry let’s head back to earth” said Bunny 1. They both said together “off we go to planet 3”.

“Earth yay home I am so hungry” said Bunny 1.  “Yeah I agree” said Bunny 2.  “Wow Earth look’s so bright from here” said Bunny 1, “Yeah” Bunny 2 said. Boom the rocket safely crashed into the crash pit.

Space Adventure.

Walt: structure a narrative piece of writing.
It is 4017 and my creative spaceship is finished I am going on a trip to a new planet for everyone in the world. I am going with my buddy the Talking Tiger. He is smart and acts like a human. My smart buddy Talking Tiger created most of this rocket ship it is big enough for 2 people. Me and Talking Tiger is looking for a new planet for people on earth. People are being disrespectful to the earth so we will find another planet immediately.

It has been weeks and we still haven't found the right planet. My plan is to find a planet half facing towards the sun and the other half towards the moon. We are about to go through some massive rocks and I will have to fly gently through them. The spaceship was small enough to fit through the small gaps. Suddenly…... BOOM! What a crash me and Talking Tiger hopped out and I also had a planet book in my pocket. Suddenly I saw some weird ALIENS!

Me and Talking Tiger heard an extreme yell “AHHHHHHHHHH”! It was squeaky and one of the alien yelled “HUMAN HUMAN HUMAN HUMAN” Talking Tiger said “i’m not a human I am a Tiger”. I said “it is alright we won’t hurt you at least you won’t hurt us lets just be friends and make peace PLEASE”. “Fine but don’t bring your evil weapons” the aliens said all together. I said “but we don’t have any" I replied. The aliens were too scared so they still locked us up.

“Ok I will make you a deal if the humans on earth can take your planet I can find you another planet…………ummmmm what about the Jupiter I will fly all of you there” I said. The Alien leader answered “Ok we could make that a deal but if it does not happen and you dont take us we will let you suffer without your astronaut mask” I replied “I promise it will happen”. The last problem is we need to fit all of you in the space ship it’s only big enough for two. “Me and Talking Tiger will go back home and make a massive space shipbig enough for the world and for all of you’s”. “Ok” the Alien said. “But Me and Talking Tiger will just need time we will also repay you snacks” I said. “Deal Deal Deal” the Alien said with excitement.


Arriving in the backyard it took two years to create another space ship. It was huge four times bigger than an elephant. Talking Tiger and I made our way back to the alien planet we got all the aliens evacuated and safely to the Jupiter planet. Then we made our way to the earth and got everything, we needed packed clothes and also traveled safely "back to the Alien planet" me and Talking Tiger said.
                                                             The End



Task Description: This is my future story 20 more years later. It is about me in the future and my pet smart Talking Tiger. If your reading this story try be clean do not disrespect earth be kind. Treat the earth the way you want to be treated. Because the world is dying and you could even die save the world. Please Leave a Positive Comment Below, Thank You.

4. Sky tower, have you ever been up the Auckland sky tower before? Well I have been up the top of the sky tower inside and it was scary but i'm not even scared of height but I was excited.
