The Story Of My Blog

This is my sutori for what I think the top 10 history events in New Zealand are

Today was our school's (Southwell's) Birthday. Southwell has turned 106 year's old today. Even though I have only been at Southwell for 2 years but it was a very entertaining with the Conga's, Line Dancing and the Rock Band's performing. 

As the white and green firework rocketed up into the black night sky, we celebrated Guy Fawkes. A loud explosion emerged as the sparks lit up the dull night sky. While down here on earth, the vicious and bright flame enveloped the black charred wood. A poof of smoke shot out as the rocket flies, magically swimming up and up. The sky goes a deep red as it explodes. As the last of the fireworks fly into the sky. The sky turns into a patchwork of colours slowly vanishing soon after. As the night ends and turns to day. Tomorrow has arrived.

It lays on my shelf, surrounded by a cluster of stones. As you look closer it shines brightly, brightly in the cluster of items.  It shines as bright as a golden trophy. Standing proudly on the shelf. Commemorating the moment, the greatest moment of my life, my greatest achievement. Although it looks plain from a strangers eyes, it's not.Basking in the sun from morning to night. It truly is like a knight in shining armor. Like an otherworldly item. Different from all the rest. Unable to compare to anything else.

Today on October 17 a young man ,Chandra Ardiccioni stuck upside down in a recently frozen lake was found. Stuck in the debris only his legs emerged. As he woke up he presented his story to us. Everything was blurry at the time, loud cackles echoed behind me. I briefly looked back, then a devilish smile emerged. I kept running, into a tripwire and fell into this lake. “This man has been really lucky to survive, He is now in the London hospital recovering from has multiple minor injuries.’ The reporter proclaims

Yesterday we presented our P.E fitness program to 2 other groups(4 people). This is our P.E training program which mainly focuses on agility.

We glance above, Staring for a brief moment, the deafening whistle hurts our ears as a cloud of smoke emerges from the once high-rise but now just crumbs of debris. As we stride over rocks of all shapes and sizes we see objects rolling around. Stashes of yellow, blue, pink and green jewelry. We look around frantically searching people watching us. We were in the clear. We grab as much as we can stuffing it down our shirts and in our pockets everywhere we can.. They drool out creating a trail as we run away, further and further forever. This week we did another 100-word challenge on this photo

      100 Word Challenge Today we had to write a 100 word challenge using the prompt (So what lies ahead) So, what lies ahead? I glare at him. He looks back at me, shaking, terrified. Our oil lamp flickers making a buzzing sound, echoing around this hollow lifeless cave. We’re stuck, stuck in a cave- a dangerous lifeless cave. With our oil lamp barely lighting up the way we take another step. Rocks crumble and shatter beneath us. We squirm backwards until we hit a wall. My hand grips something round. I keep feeling it, turning my head slowly i realise it was a skull. I scream but nothing comes out. Closing my eyes, I drift into an endless sleep.

Consideration and what it means to me.  Saying Good morning/afternoon to teachers  Listening with courtesy  Opening the door for others  Looking after others  Putting your hand up to talk  Clean up after yourself Saying please and thank you.

This week we had to write a narritive about the refugees fleeing from Syria. Here is mine. Deafening screams fill my ears. Bombs blowing up around us,the huge horde of people running away,away from the dreadful war. I grab my son,frantically running ,running away hoping that we’ll survive. Buildings crumbling around us,thousands of people dying all around me, but there’s nothing that I can do,nothing apart from run,further and further away. In the far distance I make out a point, a tiny point. The refugee camp. The place where we can start a new life. Away from the danger,the hike to freedom begins. As we approach the refugee camp, we see only three colours. The grounds brown,the tents white and the sky’s blue. Occasionally a big black cloud of smoke. The dull life of a refugee begins. Everyday the same ol’ routine. Months went by but it felt like years. As we leave the camp with thousand of other refugees. Without any sense of direction we can only follow the herd of people,...

Yesterday we were learing about show not tell I decided to do a show not tell on this picture. We trail slowly between the fields, the patchwork fields withering away. We are like an endless train plowing through the fields.

This week for my self evaluation I'll recount some of my highlights for the week. 1. Didn't have to do cross country this year because I had my interview for St Peters. 2. I got accepted to St Peters 3. A guy called Maroro Barton came to talk to us about disabled people and how they should have the same rights and he had a quote. "don't think bout the disabilities think about the possibilities. 4. We also had ICAS maths today which is a test with 40 questions which is taken by children around the world.

For my self evaluation this week I'll be  telling you some things that happened: 1.  We learnt about the salvation army and how we can help them/support them. 2. World vision came to talk to us about the Syrian refugees and how we can help. 3. Finished my draft of my speech which we have to present next week. 4. We've been talking about change in class 5. Parent teacher interviews which we had to lead went well.
