THE BUSH

The Bush Walk its say on the Camp Brochure, A few weeks later we arrive at the camp struggling for air waiting to turn the engine off and to take the journey of our lives, survival Piha. Hungrily waiting for the adventures we paid for, camping though the  night, making tents made out of different kinds of natural plants and trees, and the two hour walk to the top of Piha mountain., shaking the the excitement of my bones. The camp grounds had brightly mode green grass, cabins that smelt like air freshener, the beds had a cotton sniff to to the sheets, all you could taste was the sand baking on the tips of your tongue, “Our journey Had Just Began” I thought , The morning sun Rosie the heat reflected from my outside window burning the layers of my skin, walking slowly down the stairs and gaping tightly onto the handles a gasp of wind flew my way, goosebumps when slipping down my spine.

We jumped straight into our jumpsuits and running gear. packed lunch and all the supplies we need to survive.. Back to back we walked, birds chirping and peoples laughter harmonising through the distances running over rocks and skipping over three parts, then I stopped with a ‘BANG” I didn't think it was really important so I linked hands with my buddy and we........, I Opened my eyes I saw darkness i felt nothing but sharp rock poking me on the backside I tried to move I only felt the pain ranging from chest, i had nothing to lose but it was just too painful, i tried to yell but all I heard was the ecow it trailed behind. My muscles were weak I had no Idea how i could get out of this sticking situation, Hour went past I grabbed a hold of my backpack, I yell out again but the rain was blocking the sound. and then I remembered Julian my buddy she was trapped my searched around around me I thought their was no hope until The sun struck me it was like a blanket I felt warm for a few minutes.

I Heard A thump and a few seconds another thump, I thought to myself am i saved is there someone that will hear me I yelled as loudly as I could it hurt me a bit and the thump stopped something blocked to the sun was this a dream it said “Hello” I had no voice i searched my pockets for something like a weasel had a pocket full of breath I closed my lips closely tightly on to the end of the weasel and blew. “Are you In Any Danger” and Blew Again And Again”, He tighten the rope on to a tree and slightly slid down holding on to me and pulling me up, i Know I was Saved, Until I remembered Julian It was too late. I Died The Next Year.

There were two distinct issue of the New Zealand Medal for the second Maori Wars, Beginning. Calling “ Listen In a demanding voice” all of the tribe members looked at the specker.  it Mumbled out loud ” New Zealand lands have been strake by our enemies from different countries, they have been disgusting towards of country and have been  how they can destroy our lands and making our land animals extinct,We all huddled together and made a plan.

After the war had died down a bit, they found out some interesting news, there had been other countries, have been piloting our oceans and seas, we didn’t imagine this much damage people would make to your country, but the maori chef made a statement and

mention the word “War” and they feel they got strake by a bowling ball, when they decided to put on their armor and walk with their pet dragons and dinosaurs. Feeling the rocky path under our raff and cold feet rushing through the burning hot sand throwing our weapon towards the range full of people fire booms blasting through the air, I swapped into grabbed a  and dump him into a falling rainbow, they sprain though the disaster and had no more breath to last much longer, so they all thought about what their next plan was and then they all focused on getting out before any more of their soldiers vanish,  

Retreating into their formal tribes they made their way with their dragons and dinosaurs, thats when I came into this tragedy I swapped in from behind the three different tribes and blowed a big amount of fire though my nose and mouth also behind me was a great group of bats and on the other side walking talking goblins we tried making fire pistols but they were nearly unstoppable, we fought our way fought this battle like real man's, flesh and blood was all over the place had patches of goblins heads and bones and other things we didn’t know it existed.

Writing Practic

We stormed thought the big packs of crowds, crash and boom,  we didn’t realise the sounds were coming from the sky, looking down at the marks of peoples shoe prints and steering our bodys side to side trying to find our way out, sparkles of glitter was exploding through the air we all tumbled on the side of the pathway, I stood up and glanced at the site ahead boom the fireworks erupted into the black cloudy night. I sprinted through a couple of american people, they catched me on the corner of their eye, I sniffed to get some more fresh air and instead I smelt a bit of rat dropping, rubbing my nose and nearly running out of breath, I could feel that I was going to die of exhaustion and I could still taste the lifted over sandwich crummies dancing on my teeth

Term 2 Learning Goals

These are my goals for Term 2 and also I tell you about my personal goal as well.

Ancestral Poem.

I am a Maori Goddess,My culture is the centre of my knowledge that I know the most of.I am a strong, independent young wahine because of the strength, beauty, 

fierceness and warm heart that was passed down to me by my beautiful ancestors who protect me, they care for me and have helped me to be successful.

Even though their tombstones represent their passing, I still feel as if they are still alive in me.

You all are with me, guiding and protecting me  to reach my hopes and dreams.

The work of my ancestors, their struggles and their accomplishments illustrate my identity and who I am today - an intelligent Maori queen.

If I could see my ancestors I would thank them for giving me their strength and mana.

Description Writing.

WALT - plan a piece of Descriptive writing using our 5 senses:

See:  What is this boy looking at?  Who or what is looking at him?  What can you see?

Hear:  What might this boy be able to hear?

Smell:  What might this boy be able to smell?  What does the tree smell like?  What does the air smell like?  What does the boy smell like?

Taste:  What might this boy be able to taste?

Feel:  What does the tree feel like underneath his fingertips?  How does the ground feel underneath his feet?  What does the air feel like?  How is he feeling on the inside?

WALT - craft a piece of descriptive writing using our plans.

Begin crafting your description here:

All I could hear was the birds sing songs behind me, the children laughter was like they were getting chased by a one headed man. But hearing all of the laughter made me feel more lonely because i thought that they were chasing me but they just wanted me to hid so they could run away

The sun was beaming as the clouds were fading away, I couldn't stop glancing at the bunch of different coloured butterflies flapping their wings. All I could see was the frozen on the rough bark on the tree against my wrinkly  face, seeing all of the children getting big eyes trying to find me, Then suddenly I saw them running away and say “lets ditch him”

I could taste the trouble lunch overpowering my mouth with i was ready to spew holding it trying not blab and just want to cry but my little sisters come by and find me crying, she gave me a big hug and comfort me will i wiped my tears away, me and my sister were holding hands engaging to get a rugby ball and seeing all of the parents with their husbands with big smiles and seeing their children.

Writing Sample Test.

It was the strangest thing I’ve have ever seen.....

With no worry I walked down the street with my two best friends Ngatookz and Caprice rocking with our leather chuck taylors Blue,Red and Yellow, walking past a bunch of bushy plants and flowers, but when we tried to walk together we saw something move in these mysterious bushies we didn‘t know what they were flipping our hair out of the way and coming  it back to see, with in second this thing was gone know where to be see but it just flow out of our minds after that hour, so we just kept walking with our swag and good looks, when we were heading back into the street next to the one where the accented happened,we worried a bit because we thought is something going to go wrong or is something is going to happen to one of us,

Thinking curiously but didn’t want to think horrible we didn’t want to enter this situation again so we just turned the corner, heading back Ngatookz house because that was the nearest house,

“Can we run but not mess up our hair” Ngatookz thought,

“and make sure we don’t get mud on my new pairs of shoes I mean Our” yelled Caprice,

“hahaha sure we can but not too fast because I run out of breathe fast when I run you guys know that” Ngatookz buffed,

So we run not to fast and not slow turning the edge of that street it looked darker than before and suddenly I tripped up on this rock well it looked like a rock or a Snell and I had just enter that part of the darkness and It was the Strangest thing I've ever seen so I closed my eyes to see if this part of my life was just a dream and it was, right beside my two best friends Ngatookz and Caprice.

Even knowing that it was a dream I looked outside the window and I saw that street it was 8:00 o'clock in the morning it looked pitch black and something made me remember that this place reminded me of a place we had seen not so long ago but made me remember what kind of place this is with the bushy plants and the colourful flowers hiding away, even know I wanted to freak and try and escape I couldn't because there was no door and just one window that had be covered with jail bars so I just sat back on the bed and fell back to sleep into a deep sleep. In a few hours I woke up and acted liked nothing had happened.

The English Lesson

It was Tuesday morning and I’d just walked down the stairs. “Have you done your homework?” asked my Nan? “Oh no, “I forgot!” I said.

I felt worried because I knew that my teacher, Mrs Williams, wasn’t going to be very happy with me and might shout. When I arrived at school I went to first lesson. “What’s wrong with you Tyler?” my friend asked.”I forgot to do my homework last night and Mrs Williams is going to be cross,” I said

After break I walked into my English classroom. Mrs Williams was waiting. “What’s the matter Tyler”? You look upset.” she said. “I’m very sorry Miss,” I said “But I haven’t done my homework.” “Why Tyler?” she asked. “I don’t know Miss, I just forgot,” “Well at least you’re honest Tyler and not telling lies!” Mrs Williams said. “If you finish it by tomorrow you won’t have a detention.” I felt much better!! “Why did I worry in the beginning?”

“What’s that?” Gasped Raj.

“What?” Asked Sara following his finger pointing.

“I can’t see anything!” Her eyes were not yet used to the darkness.  

“That look! There’s something moving by the greenhouse.” Hissed Raj. Something glided silently past the panes of glass which shone in the moonlight.  

“Yes! I can see it now.” Whispered Sara.”  

“It’s fox Raj.” Whispered Sarah.

“ No I don’t think so! It’s too tall. It’s more like a small person, perhaps a child.”  Raj looked towards the greenhouse.   He breathed.

 “There it is again! Did you see it Sara?” Sara could not believe her eyes.

“I saw it and I could see through it she said.”  Raj nodded his head

“A ghost!” They both whispered.
