Ash the Christmas Tree's HOLIDAY.

WALT: Merry Christmas

Ash lived in a shed until Christmas came. His family pulled him out but with no decorations. He was lonely because the family has gone. He heard  a car “it must be them he said”.  His family had decorations a put them on him. 2 o'clock in the morning Ash sneaked out and ran away because he was bored.

That day it was cold snowing Ash couldn’t feel a thing because he was just a tree. Until he started to have a holiday. He was walking in the cold with a Santa hat. On Christmas eve Ash saw a flying deer with a bright red nose and leading behind them Ash saw a big shiny red sled with boxes in it and in the front seat he saw a person and he looked closely and he couldn’t believe it because he saw SANTA! It was silent until he heard “HO HO HO merry Christmas everyone” yelled Santa.

Ash's eyes sparkled like crystals it was magnificent to see Santa. “Excuse me SANTA can I have a ride with you and help please” YELLED ASH! “MEET me on the top of the sky tower” said santa. “Oh YES YES I WILL BE THERE SOON” ASH replied. “Bye see you there” said Santa “Oh yes you to” said Ash. Ash ran into the elevator and he was on the 3rd level he went up the stair to get on the top. He was there Santa. “Oh come in hop in I do need some help” said Santa.

Ash was in Santa said “let’s go to the north pole I will show you around” said Santa. Ash couldn’t speak he was excited and he was even frozen until they got to the north pole. Ash saw a circle around Santa's sled and a ipad on a stand. Santa pushed this red button and said “OPEN UP” said Santa. “Stay in the sled tree” said Santa. “Oh my name is Ash by the way” said Ash while he was going down. Santa jumped in one spot and he got sucked down a tube it was extremely fast.

“WOW” said Ash while going down in the sled. He got to the bottom and just saw a bunch of elves wrapping presents making presents getting present all sort of stuff. Ash's eyes sparkled like crystals it was magnificent he was so surprised and he never knew Santa Claus and elves were real be cause normally in Christmas eve he is asleep and he thinks that family’s  buy presents for each other. But no he was wrong. “Oh Ash can you be my Christmas tree helper please I need you” said Santa.

Now that Ash saw Santa properly because he was frozen on their way to the north pole anyway he saw Santa's big thick white beard Santa's hat Santa's buckle with SC that stands for Santa Claus. “Wow” said Ash. “Hi Welcome to the north pole why don’t I show you around” said one of the elves. “My name is Creek I love Christmas because you get really cool presents from Santa everyone get’s a present in the world” Creek said. “What about you” Creek said to Ash. “Oh my name is Ash and because I am a Christmas tree I love watching people opening presents” Ash says.

As they were walking down the hallway Ash saw big present’s and they were like a kayak with a paddle and a few go karts and Ash said “can I get a present on Christmas day”. “Oh yeah sure I will tell Santa” said Creek. “Tell me 5 things you would like” Creek said. “What I only want 1” Ash said. “Oh no we will just choose one out of those five so you won’t know OK” said Creek “OHHHHH OK” replied Ash. “So tell me what you would like” said Creek. “Ummmmmmm” Ash said. “Oh we don’t have anything called ummmmmmm” Creek said “No I am thinking” said Ash. “Oh I know what about a go kart that is one and a ipad with ipad case and a laptop please” Ash said.

The next day Ash opened his eyes seeing a steering wheel 4 wheels on the ground and a seat. He opened his eyes wider to see what was he actually seeing. His eyes were opened wider and he saw a GO KART and he hoped in it and drove it away. Ash was never to be seen again.

Task Description: I wrote a Christmas story it is about a Christmas tree seeing Santa and his name is Ash. Ash is also having a holiday he went to the north pole why don't you go with him. He is having a lot of fun I suggest you see what he is up to.

The Warrior Princess

Rangi’s tough heart pounded after hearing the stomping noise. She looked around fearlessly as she quietly took a step towards the bush. Suddenly a giant bird came out of nowhere from behind the tall trees. Gloria had been hunting for food but as soon as the moa came out, another ten appeared. What was she going to do?

Hustling and bustling through them she jumped into a space ready to fight. ‘Zoom zoom’ her taiaha went round and round and round. Up she jumped while the pointy part of her taiaha went straight into a bird. It squawked loudly before dying. She only dragged one bird down the barky rough forest floor for dinner. She got her fire ready and cooked the bird. She ripped it open wide, grabbed a slimy piece and opened her mouth wide. A big "mmmmm'' entered Rangi's head.

Suddenly she saw a dark person in the green bushes. She wasn’t sure who it was. As he stepped out she could see that it was a warrior just like her. He was hunting for food as well, but he looked evil. Rangi quietly picked up her taiaha and silently approached him. Then she quickly stood up  and aimed the pointy part of her taiaha toward him. The man came running out.  "Argh!" yelled Rangi as she ran towards him. She felt like she was going die, but instead the man did as her taiaha pierced his heart. “Take that” Rangi said before she walked away.

She didn't get far when she saw more and more men who were warrior’s. Boom! Bam! Ka-pow! With one swoop of her powerful taiaha all the men fell to the ground groaning in pain. Rangi proved that she was the strongest warrior in all of the land.

Fiafia Night.

Walt: organise my ideas into paragraphs and link them together.
Pt England had Fiafia have you ever been to one? It was cool and really exciting but shivering cold and some kids were nervous and scared. It was cool watching the performances that we had practiced.

 Our entire school has fiafia on April the 7th 2016. Fiafia is when we are performing our culture groups in front of the school and our parents. We had got a big stage set up for us out on our school field it was big and it had bright lights to shine on us when we perform.

 I had chosen cook Island because my dad is cook island that is my culture to. Cook Island had drums so the dancers can dance to the beat. My costume colors were light blue lava lava yellow flower necklace and a hair flower to go in my hair bun. My group was last it was cold and I got so tired.

 There was one group that I was really excited for and waiting for it was the hip hop group from the year 4s to 6s. I liked this group the most because the hip hop kids were dancing to a song that matches to their dance it was so cool this was my number one group and the songs even changed. I knew all the songs they danced to. I have been practicing every Thursday and 5 or 6 weeks.

 Fiafia was cool watching all performances I liked the culture dances it was amazing. Some of them went hard and tried their best. I was just excited of watching the performances and couldn't wait for my group to jump on the stage it was the exciting coolest night ever I had fun.

Task Description: We had to write about our school fiafia. I had told you that how long we been practicing and what fiafia is. Here is a photo for a example.

My fun Camp Experience.

Walt: organize my ideas into paragraphs and link them together
 Last Week year 5 & 6 went on camp. Mr Sommerville told us where we need to go and what to do. We went on a school camp we were there for 3 days. Camp has been running for 26 years now.

 The camp is on the field all students meet in our big tent when eat or we switch rotations. In room 7, 6, and 8 the big space we did camp practice. Camp practice is when we dance to a song for our camp concert.

 My first highlight was when we were playing in the hall in the hall was all thought of things. My number 1 thing I liked playing in the hall was rollerblading around in the hall it was fun. I was also going up and down the breeze. I liked it because it is just fun rollerblading.

 My 2nd Highlight was the concert night. The concert was on Wednesday night. I liked it because we got water guns and we got to shoot all the other teams it was funny. At the end we just found out that the Kind legends won the concert.

 I am a year 5 so yay I am going to camp next year can't wait because camp is fun. I think that camp is fun because you get to wear mufti and also do fun activities. I recommend you to talk to your school because camping is so fun but you may not sleep through the night but it is so fun I am recommending you to go on a camp 2 or even more days.

Task Description: I have wrote of what I did at camp and this is about camp. It has my favorite things that I did at camp and stuff like that. Hope you enjoy.
