Cultural Dances

These are cultural performances that we had to practice to show everyone.
The year 5s did the Samoan Sasa, the year 4 and 6 boys did the Maori Super Haka and the year 4 and year 6 girls did Ti Rakau.
They were all dances to our cultures and we are proud to have done them.
We really enjoyed learning about the dances and performing them, we hope you enjoy it aswell, here is the video and some pictures of it.








Volcano Presentation

W.A.L.T I am learning to summarise.
This is mine and Jolly Rose's presentation of volcano facts and a volcano eruption experiment.
First to make this we had to read facts from a book and then find facts on the internet to put into our own words.  After that we had to plan what we were going to say so we could actually make a volcano.  After that we had to make our volcano using tinfoil and newspaper.  One of us went to make homemade play dough to put it on, while the other made the shape of it.  When we were finished making the shape, we put the homemade play dough on.  After that we made a script we had to read and we couldn't have done it without Miss Bell and Mrs. Mclachlan.
It was hard to make it and plan everything.
We have worked really hard on it and we hope you enjoy.

My Journey To The Fantasy Land Story

W.A.L.T write a fantasy.

I'm proud of what I have written and I extremely hope you enjoy it because I think it's my greatest writing I have written. I am excited about people reading it because it has a lot of humour in it.

Warning!  Too Much Humour Up Ahead!

The Amazing Journey To Crazy-land!
Chapter 1:
The mountain dew menace.
So I’m at my friend's new house because they're having a party because it’s their new house.  And all of a sudden… “Eek!  I have to pee!” I run to the bathroom but the door is closed to go to the toilet!  I think I had too much mountain dew.  I shouldn’t have joined that chugging contest!  I open the door squinting my eyes and something has just caught my eye, wait WHAT!? I close the bathroom door and stare at a gleaming golden toilet!  I didn’t know that my friends were that rich!  My mind is telling me to look inside it, so I give it a go.  It.. It… It…. It’s AMAZING!  I see a toilet kingdom realm!  With a king toilet and a queen toilet.  They’re golden and shiny!  They’re sitting on two thrones and there’s an army of mini toilet peasants!  I want to go there!  The water that’s supposed to be in the toilet is a bubble, so it’s possible to jump in.  Well, I guess you could say it’s a “Portal”loo”.  Okay, here we go!  I’m jumping in, 3, 2, 1.
Chapter 2:
Attack of the Portaloo.
LLAMASWAGGERNESS.jpg
All I see is a black darkness with two evil eyes glowing in the darkness.  I get sucked into something that makes me feel like I’m morphing into something.  My arms feel like they’re getting bigger and my legs feel like they’re getting smaller!  My head feels woozy and I feel dizzy!  I see a mirror and all I see inside the mirror is… Is…. Is….. A LLAMA?  I’VE BEEN MORPHED INTO A LLAMA!  I can see inside the mirror that armour is being put on me and I get a spear, I look like a llama soldier.  I’m being sucked into another thing and now I get a hat that is shaped like a banana but it has a feather on top.  I’m getting pulled fast into a portal and my arms have fallen back.  I see a glimpse of a realm that’s different to  our earth.  It’s the one I saw before!  Except… It’s a wool castle with llama guards, there’s posters that say, we need you! For an army to destroy the toilets!  I can see inside a window there is a king llama and a queen llama.  They’re wearing capes and crowns with sparkling jewels on them!
Chapter 3:
Revenge of the public Toilets.
I see walls made of fur, bonfires with toilet flush buttons being burned, Toilets on the walls with dirt on them and words in graffiti written on them.  I see posters, Toilet servants and Llamas cooking potatoes.  It seems like potatoes are Llamas favourite food!  I hear some Llamas chanting
“ALL HAIL POTATOES!  ALL HAIL POTATOES! ALL HAIL POTATOES!”.   I called out
“Yeah! All hail potatoes!” Then I started secretly laughing, because it was funny.  I hear Llamas talking and humans sound like sheep, baby humans sound like they are throwing up and they have diarrhoea at the same time in the human petting zoo.  I smell a disgusting smell, it smells like someone farted (poo wee!)!  My armpits also smell disgusting!  All I taste in my mouth is Llama spit, well that explains why I can’t speak properly like everyone else!  I see another poster saying that they need me so I try to figure out why,  I find my room then I spend the rest of the day trying to figure out what it means.  I remember that when I was coming into this world I saw a poster through the portal that said they need me to destroy the toilets. That feels like a hint for something, but I found out what it meant!  I feel strong! Confident!  Confused! And weirded out.  It is now night time, I dream of getting home as a distant blob of blackness overcomes me. I felt tired, I am falling asleep.

I just wake up, I feel like I’m ready for the day!  (yawn.) Oh never mind.   I hear something crashing and the humans sound like they are crying for escape.  I run into the main room, then into the petting zoo.  I see toilets stealing humans and at the front of the kingdom I see Stars but the Llamas lost 2 stars!  Now less people want to come here!  I’ve only been here for a day but man it smells good here and it’s a good place here!  I’m terrified because the toilets shouldn’t be doing that!  What started the war anyway?  A wise old Llama heard me and he told me to go into his tent.  “OK.” I whispered.  So I walk over to his tent and go into it.   He tells me “If you want to get back to the real world, you would have to take my place and break the king and queen toilet”.  
“Of course I want revenge, but I don’t know if I want to break them.” I said.
“Well you can set us free if you do and it’s the only way you can get home.” Said the wise old Llama.  I wondered what he meant by ‘us’.  Well, It’s the only way to get home, so I have to.

Chapter 4:
The Last Goodbye.
I spend time inventing a wormhole device so I name it the Portaloo gun.  It can teleport anyone  anywhere but you have to be in a portaloo first.  Oh, I forgot to mention it can teleport portaloos anywhere as well!  I secretly go into a portaloo and teleport into the toilet kingdom vault, I summon a giant portaloo and I take all the gems and money.  I teleport back to the Llama kingdom and put all the gems and money in a giant bag, and show it all to the King and Queen, I bow and then tell them I stole it from the Toilet kingdom. They make me the leader of the army and I give them the portaloo device but I deactivate it first so they don’t mess with it.  They tell me that the army will be going out tomorrow so I better be ready.

That morning I woke up early and I decided to go for a work out to get stronger.  I spend 3 hours at the gym and then I walk to the king.  I say “I’m ready to fight!”.
“Okay then.  Go to the military camp and then lead everyone to the Toilet kingdom”. Says the king.
I walk down to the military camp and lead everyone to the Toilet kingdom.  We go inside and I use an invisibility device on everyone, we walk into the king and queen toilets room and I walk up to the queen to use a dagger to break her, next I break the king toilet aswell and I feel a strange light pulling me into the skies.  I get pulled into the Llama kingdom where everyone is waiting for me.  I say goodbye, knowing that I have to leave, there is a magical toilet portal waiting for me, behind me.
Chapter 5:
The Portaloo Strikes Back.
I jump into the magic toilet portal and all I know is that I get pulled into it and my body is in pain morphing back into a human.  I ended it all, I arrive into the real world in my friend's bathroom but the toilet is normal now, I still need to pee!  I quickly go to the toilet and when I finish I quickly wash my hands and head outside of the bathroom, luckily the party is still going on but I go outside and I go home.  


Chapter 6: Return Of The Wise Old Llama.
The next day I go for a walk and wonder if that was all a dream or real, it felt real but it looked like a dream.  I walk near the shops and I see a new store, I wonder what it’s selling.  I walk inside and… … … I SEE THE WISE OLD LLAMA!
DON DON DON!!!
Movie coming soon to a theatre near you!
