Ana and Salote's Term 2 Poem

In term 2 we did a lot of things,
Writing and reading and we started to sing.

We dribbled the ball,
and we danced in the hall.

We ran around the school,
and we wrote lots, which was cool.

We cleaned up a little,
and we saw what we were on in levels.

Frank and Justin's Term 2 Poem

In term 2 we learned lots of things,

Writing and reading and learning to sing.

Orienteering was fun, we went outside,
Basketball and zumba all part of our life.

Just like Blue we looked for clues.
Next term we hope its all good news.

Ierei's Term 2 Poem

In term 2 I liked Zumba and learning about God.
We danced in the hall and I thought I looked odd.
 

We did lots of writing and all went to mass.
My writing was long but not very flash.
 

We learnt orienteering skills and some basketball
The teachers were great and we didn't all fall.
 

Our 3 way conferences are today.
I hope my mum won’t chase me away.

Frank's Imaginative Story

“Go and help your Dad in the gardens” shouted my Mum. I walked over to my Dad slowly and he shouted “I want you to dig a big hole until I tell you to stop, I’m going to make myself a coffee” “yes Dad” I whispered.

“I’m bored” I said to myself. But I have to do this so I dug and dug until I stepped in the wrong place and suddenly I fell and hit my head on a hard rock. I opened my eyes and I looked around and I saw small trees and very big grass all over the place and a volcano looking like it was going to erupt. I whispered to myself “where am I?” and a giant bee flew across my face. I was scared.

I saw a giant man and he had a big body with strong legs and arms, four arms and four eyes coming close to me. I got up and ran but suddenly I tripped on the rock that I had knocked my head on. The giant man picked me up and he whispered “who are you?” I whispered back “who are you?” and he answered “I’m Four Arms”. I answered back “I’m Robin, where am I?” “you're in the Mysteries Island?” Four Arms shouted. “where can I get out of this place?” I whispered to Four Arms and Four Arms yelled “here this is a golden compass”. The compass was shiny, golden and amazing. He threw me the compass and he said “where do you live, North or South?” I opened the compass and pointed the compass to North because we lived in North and suddenly my house appeared. I walked straight then I turned back to Four Arms and he yelled “goodbye” and I whispered back to Four Arms “goodbye”. I turned and I walked straight to my house.

As soon as I got back my dad came with his coffee and yelled “stop now you can have a rest, where did you get that compass?” and lied so I wouldn’t get in trouble and said “I found it over here” and sat down for a rest.
