Willy wonka story

Meeting Mr Willy Wonka

As I walk into this mystical  solitude of greatness I am greeted  with a peculiar man named Mr Willy Wonka. Wonka has  remarkable  colours on his pants top and everywhere else,  It was as if he had a wedding on and there was a brief, it was to be colourful. Wonka has been thinking very hard over the last few exciting  days.

I take 10 steps of wobbly confidence and I have come into the room of endless glory. I look upon this room, as if  it was heaven. I’m so happy with these smells that I have inhaled, rosemary, ginger, chocolate, caramel and  hazel.

The pounding of the Oompa Lumpas as they work fill’s my ears. I taste the tempting chocolate  sucking up all the room my taste buds can taste.When Willy Wonka lets me dip my hand in the  4.6 foot tall container I feel the divine   and sensational chocolate. The next adventure awaits in the inventing room.

Chapter one The arrival. Phaf!!!!!!!!! My spaceships main function  has  gone beserk  and I crash landed on an island that  has all the the places the exotic ones, the cold ones  and  now I have to survive how long I can. First of all I need to get wood. There are wild cannibals around here I need to get my defenses up quick (Mr howls idea not mine).Chapter two The crew. Now that I have  got wood I will check the wreckage of my ship, to see if there is any survivors or helpful items there.URRRRGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Oh no I hear the cannibals actually no it’s not the cannibals its my crew. Mc  candyman,professor  snape. Come on guys search the ship find  normal but valuable items and that’s an order!! Chapter three Empire. Have we found anything yet? “Yes”said Mc candyman. “What did you find candy”? I found all the food.”Good” What did you find professer snape”? “I have found all the knives forks all the kitchen appliances mam”. I have found clothes sleeping bags all the house materials and bedroom, bathroom and lounge and outdoor materials.”We need to start small and build a big empire but first we are going to start with a house  and build an empire slowly”! Said Mrs May.” Any questions”?”No”!!!! They all say. Chapter four The build. Bang bang bang  “Now  that we have got all the walls up and all the doors and windows, cut out and ready to put in”. UUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! “ I think that might be the cannibals  urr uuuuummmm I don’t know what to do now” I say.Chapter five Preparing.” People people before we get carried away with the house we need weapons”. I say.  After the conversation we get prepared with armour and weapons. I have got a platnium sword and armour and everyone  as well. As we head into battle I get hungry, hot, thirsty and all the things that you, need to help you stay alive. Luckily I have my trusty old backpack with suncream, food and water. Chapter six The clashes. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!! The sound of armour clashing swords with their own tune of music are filling my ears as I look for Elgero the cannibals leader. Once I catch a glimpse of Elgero in his cabin on his rocking chair I rush towards him and when he sees me, gives me a sharp look  of hatrid and anger. Chapter seven The boss fight. As soon as I make my way into the room something different appears on him instead of ragged old clothes he’s wearing a crown, gold armour and a steel club. Before we fight I hear him talking to me saying things. “Yuuno you should’ve never arrived, here in the first place because you dont want to get slaughtered do you. Elgero says. “ I wouldn't particularly want that no” I say. “ so how you wanna settle this huh” I say. “I’d like to settle like old fashioned charge eh”. Elgero anxiously says. I go first it didn't take long to eliminate him, I just had to charge and the sword went through the wood and Elgero was pinned to the wall forever. Chapter eight The unexpected visitors. As we head back home to finish it off We hear a helicopter hovering over us. “You’re OK guys well reil you in”. The person talking into the megaphone yells. A ladder comes down and we all climb up up there waiting for us is sleeping bags, porridge and a hot cup of milo. Then we head back to dunedin airport to go home. Chapter nine Home sweet home. When I get home I am greeted with my family It's a lovely family that I have. George is there greg, mum, dad, siblings and children.Then we have a good dinner With all of our family. It was delicious. Chapter ten Not again. When the next week  I go to work and when I get to the  lobby and astronauts were everywhere in the long room. Someone told me to get in ship  ZU 43. I’m guessing you know whats gonna happen by the name of the chapter. It happened again!!!!!!!RRRRRRRRRRGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!The end

House on fire

House on fire

I have just been woken up by this horrendous inferno. I rush to the door, not caring to be cautious, and I open it fast.

When I get to the lounge there is an inferno in the corner. I go to the nearest window and open it then open up all of them. This remarkable blaze has turned into a wild fire.

I pack up all of my belongings  and Mac my pet German Shepherd. I yell Fire!!! Fire!!!

The rubbish bin looks like a marshmallow. Pop!! All of the windows smash. Bang!!!

I got blown across the room and on impact I died.

Tree planting in Waitahuna

Tree planting at Waitahuna. On Tuesday room 7 and room 4 went to the Murrays farm and went tree planting and electric fishing. We left school about 9:30 am and came back at 12:30. Everyone went by car and came back by car. While we were with Keiran and Angus showed us an eel that he had in a net overnight. He also showed electric fishing, which is where using an electric current to stun the fish, so they can catch them and look at them more closely. Lamprey eels are very rare, and it was the first one Keiran had ever seen. They are ancient fish, sometimes called a sucker eel  because they don’t have a jaw and they just suck. He told us that the bigger the fish, the more effective the electric shock would have on them.

House on fire

House on Fire. I am a firefighter watching as the fire consumes the house. The flames are crackling as I stand  on the ground. The flames are climbing like a spider. The smoke is blowing like leaves in the wind. Some firefighters are keeping the fire  under control by squirting with the hose.THUD!!!! The roof caves in. They’re spraying again.   Crumble!!! Now the wall falls down. Imagine being in there. It’s just melting like chocolate. Now it  has fallen over Now the firefighter’s are just spraying until there’s nothing just a messy bedroom.

Modigliani Self Portrait

This is my  Modigliani self portrait .

This is me as you can see.

My blue shirt is my  school T-shirt.

Modigliani's have long necks, also they are very skinny as if someone has stretched them out.

Modigliani  uses big blocks of bold colours.

Swimming at school 2017

This term we did some swimming. We did photos on the side of the pool, and we were doing freestyle, backstroke and breaststroke. In the little pool we had a special swimming instructor and we learned how to breathe easier. We are getting ready to do lengths in the school swimming sports.

Athletics Day

Last Friday we had Athletics day. My favorite sport was  high jump. The sausage sizzle was really good and the water was refreshing. The obstacles were terrific, sprints great, discus superb, shot put super and long jump fantastic. I had a great day.
