The Seven Stars

On a pitch black night, there lived seven little girls whose names were Kruz, Lavinia, Makayla, Mischa, Olivia, Holly and Piper. Those seven girls loved to argue with each other.

Three of them liked to do lots of tricks. The kind of tricks they did were eating tricks, sitting tricks, tripping tricks and sleeping tricks. 

Early in the morning, all the girls settled down and fell asleep but one of them was still awake. 

Olivia looked from out of the window and saw three trees whispering to each other. 

"Hey!" said Olivia. "There is a man on our front lawn." 

That man was a wizard. The rest of the girls woke up and went outside to catch the man but, by the time they went outside, they got lifted up and went flying in the night and they turned into stars. The Wizard was the wizard of the seven girls fighting. If they fought a lot, there would be some star punishment. Less fighting and more staying away from each other. 

You will see them in early June at Matariki.

A Girls' Holiday

Lavinia and Kruz were best friends. They lived in the alley of a forest. Both of them loved to go down through the forest to have a picnic. Lavinia had two big sisters named Tyarne and Jahnyva. Kruz had a little sister named Rhys

On a trumbling sunny hot saturday Lavinia and Kruz went down into the forest and they wanted to have a gentle, silent walk. Both of them were looking at different sides and a bluey grey butterfly showed up. Lavinias butterfly looked like a greeny pink butterfly. So Lavinia and Kruz tried to chase after it and they lost each other. "Ahhh where is Kruz" asked Lavinia. They tried to find a way out of the forest but when they turned around it felt like their name was getting called out. When the noise stopped they found a way out and went to Kruz's house for a hot chocolate. "what a releif lets not go into that spookey forest again that creaped me out" said kruz.

Where is Harry?

Suddenly, Tom had an idea about his green, slippery, slimy snake. He gathered up some equipment from the classroom. He picked up some scissors, cords, glue, paper and the teacher's lunch. He glued some sheets of paper together and put some cords on the paper to tie the paper together. Tom put the teacher's ham sandwich in the middle. Harry slithered to it while all of the kids in the classroom climbed up on their chairs so the snake couldn't bite their toes off. 
Tom grabbed onto Harry and put him back in his bag. 
"What a relief! Never bring a snake to school," said Mrs Anderson.
Well done, Lavinia. 
- You have described the snake well - green, 
   slippery and slimy. 
- You have used commas between the things you 
   listed.

To all the children of St. Paul's primary school, greetings from the Himalayas.

I know you have been following John and our journey to the to roof of the world. I hope you learned something about our mountains and culture.

I invite you all to join me one day to visit our part of the world.

Hi Jamling this is lavinia and i just want to say that i like your comments about you and John climbing on to the top of Mount Everest. My favourite part of all of that amazing writing you did is when you went around talking to people and making friends on the way to base camp. I think that those funny, impressive photos were awesome. Your so lucky because you got to climb up Mount Everest with John.

Jamling Tenzing Hi Lavinia, thank you for your nice comments. I am glad you enjoyed the writing and the photos.

Mount Everest

Jonathon usher/ El Gregoe

"Wow! look at his wallet it's on fire "wow!"
We all signed "oh, wow!" as Jonathon opened his fingers to reveal a 10$ note Where a 5$ note had been just a couple of seconds earlier. 
The whole school was sitting in our school hall and waved our hands in the air saying, "Hi, Jonathon." We were going to watch two amazing magic shows. 
Jonathon's tricks were so clever and, whenever he talks, he made us giggle and laugh. 
A few minutes later, he asked for a volunteer so I reached my hand up and I was the one to be chosen. He asked me to hold a plastic bag so I held on to it while he got a bottle of ketchup and put it into the plastic bag. Jonathon gave me a wand and, by the time I touched it, it broke into pieces, so he gave me a whiteboard marker and I had to say, "Boom!" then the bottle disappeared. 

Our second show was El Gregoe. El Gregoe was welcoming himself to everyone and did a really clever trick. 

Pentecost

The church is people spreading the Good News about Jesus. 
The disciples were hiding because they were scared that they might die, like Jesus. 
The Holy Spirit came with fire and wind. The Holy Spirit gave them gifts. One of the gifts was courage to go out and spread the Good News about Jesus.
When the followers went out and started spreading the Good News, that was the beginning of the Church - Pentecost.

My mum and I

In the holidays, my sisters, Nan, my mum and I went to Waterworld.
At first, my mum and I went to go to my Nannys.
