Decorating our class





"Paper here paper there"! I think in my hard tired mind. every bodys shouting and trying to find out what there going to do next. We have been making Christmas decarations for our class. So far it's looking very colourful and bright. Our whole class has used percistince in trying to make it look good. We made a christmas tree and covered alot of boxes with paper to make Presants and put them under the tree. Miss Grant's voice slowly booms across the room "time to pack up!", she cried. we all slowly started picking every thing off the floor and we are all proud of our new colourful class room. made pleanty of new things from our class like the hut behind our door and the mery christmas sight on the roof also Anna and Rebecca made some realy cool decarations. Every one tried real hard.

I dash the tray into the hot burning fire blasting towards me. Slowly the soft yellow and brown sponges rise tall. Immmm the smell ligers through the breezy beachy air. If your good you're good tomorrow you just might get to taste one :) !!!!!!!!!!!!!


From Miss Grant and Rach






  1. Zooming in close to the arkward picture of a flower. Lying face flate on the wet grass watching the beanstorks grow. A gust of wind swoops to the green ground below and swaying plants drop. shivering bugs scuttlearound looking for their prey. "SNAP"cries the camera."Beautiful", a picture of an ugly, black, beetle. Flash the bright light shines its light and takes a pretty photo. Beautiful pictures of nature flying through the camera. "Downloading" shouts the laptop.

The end!

By Eden Paki.






"$20 off for talking" Miss Grant Screeched harshly in our ears. "WHAT"! Another $20 off please! Soon you will be banked rupt is the words we hear each day in our colourful class. In our class we have this money called decition dollers we earn them when we are well behaved and nice to the teacher. When we give Miss Grant CHOCLATE she gives us $100 decition dollers. We can go into groups and join our money together and make lots of money. At the end of the year we are going to get one of these PRIZES for first seconed and thired. "$20 dollers for Stephanie Georgia and Kelly". "Thank you Miss G!!!"

The camera flashed a white bright light as it uploaded this new thing the photographer had just taken to the data storage place. we took pictures here and there and here and there and there again. We took amazing detailed pictures of anything and everything. Floating flowers, patterened tree trunks and wooden kiwis. Amazing, wonderfully cool. Thank you to

Rachel for helping us out and missgrant for using the camera. The end

Preserving food was so fun smelling the lovely sweet sence of ripe apples
can any 1 cut apples with a knife only a few people rasied there hands and guess what i wasnt 1 of them i will show you the method
first you put the jars in the oven to heat them up at 120 degrees so you can get rid of the micro organisms witch are germs then we peal the apples with a sharp knife but watch out dont cut yourself after that we cut the apples into quarters so they are in small chucks the we put them in a pot fill of water and cook them
half an hour later they where ready

Preserving Food with Mrs, Miss Grant and Rach


Preserving apples was fun and exciting. The children got to peel and chop the apples.

Rach Mrs Grant and Miss Grant's Trip up north!








buzzzzzzzzz, whooo home time. Rach, Mum and I departed for the mighty Paihia. Rach complained about the muggy weather and her head hitting the window in the back seat as I zipped along in my black Juno. Bump, bang, jolt. I'm sure she was over exaggerating.
We stroll briskly towards the bright coloured pillars on the uneven surfaced floor. Prickly, green and gold wildlife perch on the roof. Wow look at the bottles on the mud like walls, I loved the way the sun was shining through them.
pooooohhhhh whats that smell.

I bolted up towards the colourful gate. Running off in our groups. The first ride we hop on was the Cork Screw. I patiently lined up. Finally it was time. My tummy nervously shaking with fear. I pulled down the handle bar down ahhhh. The roller coaster started to move only for a little while we were slowly m oving up the elevator there was no way out of this. Ahhhh we unluckly reached the top of the roller coaster i was breathless i was screaming at the top of my voice up and down around corners i started to feel sick yah! it was the end.

Night of the Notables


Look at the intelligent Robbie at the night of the Notables

Night Of the Notables

The deafening bagpipes playing as we march into the otp library.
Dressed as tony hawk and with a skateboard can you guess who I am?
We march back outside and got ready for our grand papparatzi opening.
Here comes ...........my name.......... shouted one of the M.C.s. I skate in flip up my board and walk off to my stand. The playstation is packed with people wanting to play Tony Hawk ProSkater 4.
I master jumping a ruler sized ledge without bracking my neck, well, any bones as a matter of fact. I showed people how to ollie & ride the skateboard. Bradley showed me a trick he could do when he had both feat on the edge of the board and moved his feat up an down rapidly to make the board move up an down . THE END
