My Scary Doll Story


     The girl that gets turned into a doll.
One day a little girl was skipping down a snowy footpath, she made it to her favorite doll shop. She wrote her name onto the blackboard Alma perfect her name is Alma.

She looked behind her because there was a sound of cogs. And there was a doll that looked like Alma. Wanted that doll so she walked to the door and tried to open it.


The door wasn't opening then she walked away and threw a snowball at the door window. Then the door opened then she walked into the shop slowly and the doll that looked like her went on the shelf Alma bumped into a doll that was on a bike. It looked like it was trying to escape out of the shop until the door closed.

The doll on the bike with rusty chains, smacked its head onto the wooden door over and over again in desperation.


When Alma looked up again, her doll that looked like her had disappeared somewhere. She was looking around where the doll had last been seen but it wasn't there. When Alma looked up to a shelf filled with dolls she saw the doll she was looking for then started to climb up to the doll.

She saw two girl dolls moving their eyes looking at her. Alma had found what she was looking for. The doll that looked like Alma wasn’t moving its eyes and Alma was still trying to get the doll by climbing on the shelves filled with dolls.

The doll that looked like her kept on disappearing from one shelf to another. But Alma didn’t care she was careless in that doll shop.


Alma finally climbed up to the top shelf she touched the doll’s chest then suddenly Alma turned into a doll she couldn’t move at all, all she could do is move her eyes side to side.

THE END!!!

Part of Charlie and the chocolate factory rettel


There was a boy called Charlie one day he was walking home back from school. While he was walking home something shiny caught his eye. It was a $1 coin he picked it up carefully then he flung all of the dirt off it.


After cleaning the coin he went into a shop. He walked to the counter then the shopkeeper asked what chocolate bar charlie wanted then charlie carefully picked. He picked willy wonkas scrumdidlyumptious.


After he ripped the wrapper off quickly then he gave the coin to the man at the counter. When he ate the chocolate the man at the counter gave Charlie some change. Charlie just had enough money for a regular wonka chocolate bar.
Charlie said “I’ll buy a regular wonka bar this time for my grandpa Joe” “Ok” the shop keeper said. Charlie gave the rest of his change to the Shopkeeper then left. When charlie left he saw a swarm of people at the newspaper cart. One of the people at the newspaper cart was talking about the guy who

had a fake golden ticket.

When Charlie heard the man who was talking about the guy who had the fake golden ticket he said nothing. Charlie walked away and carefully took off the wrapper and saw a glimpse of gold. He closed the wrapper he was over excited then he ripped the silver wrapper off and dropped the bar of chocolate and got the last golden ticket out. When he pulled out the last golden ticket out a greedy old lady grabbed him by the arm and shouted out “Hey this kid found the ticket he found the last golden ticket”, every crowded around him and some man told him to run all the way home and not stop and Charlie ran out and ran all the way home.

Along time ago in New Mexico there was a flood, a lot of kids were playing in a flood causing trouble amongst houses and splashing water onto clothes.
There was a kid whose name was Jamain. He climbed up to the very top because his friend dared him to do it. so he jumped off the roof because he wanted to be the man.
He landed on his stomach he tried to get up but he couldn't.  Water was covering his face. His upper body was pounding with pain and couldn't breath that much. A random friend reached out to his hand and took him to his brother Steven Fox

Steven Fox took him to the hospital because he had been injured. When he opened his eye his mum was so enthusiastic because Jamain was still alive that was good thing.
When they got back  stevens back side was red as superman's cape. After that the flood dried up everyone took the stuff down and put them back where they were. All the kids were bored without a  water anywhere to be seen.

Jamain came back home he was pleased to see his friends and family. his friends
ran and up to jamain and hugged him to heaven.

Tyrone and Brandon Paragraph 1 Aldora's Cross Country


Today we practiced re-crafting a peace of writing. The first paragraph belongs to Aldora and the second is mine.


“Cross country, Cross country” is the worst event ever. I would never dream about cross country. Today is cross country and I am not feeling good. But I  just want to support my team TE ARAWA.  “GO TE ARAWA” I said quietly to myself.



Cross country “why me?” I sat nervously. I didn’t know if I could win or if I might fall in the mud. I took a big breath and remembered the race from last year. I then knew what my goals were I just hope I would win.

I got up then hopped away into a tunnel then some people said I was going the wrong way I said I am retired, then he went to the last hurdle and kissed it.


After I kissed it some people from a different team came to help me. That was the olympic spirit my leg was sore that I couldn't walk on it any more.

Cross Country 2012


Jogging down to the reserve we all walked to the starting line at the reserve. The 10 and 9 year old boys were ready to sprint all the way to tamaki college and all the way back to Pt -England. As Mr Burt said on your marks get set GO as I ran towards the bridge I was hoping I would came first in the finals. If I did come first I will be proud of myself but I didn't and I felt disappointed about my self.


As I was running through the bushes I was going to fall down. On slippery bridge and into the water. Well I was running down the bush it felt really exhausted. I was almost at the finished line and I felt so tired!!! Finally I crossed the finished line and everyone was cheering me on.


We were washing our legs because our legs were dirty because of the mud. Looking at all that water made me so thirsty. When I was done wishing the mud off my legs I quickly had the biggest drink of water ever.Then we sat down on the ground and watch every one that had to race and after that we went to room 17 because Miss King was still doing the cross country then she came and the we went home.

The Olympic Torch



The olympic flame started at the ancient olympics in Greece. The flame was ignited from the sun and burned until the closing of the games.


In Olympia women in ancient style robes who are holding the olympic torch ignite it in a curved mirror. Next it gets put on fire by the sun this a tradition for the Greeks. The torch is then passed from person to person as it travels from Olympia to london.

The most important event at the opening ceremony is the lighting of the torch. It burns for two weeks until the game have finished.

About Term 2


I enjoyed swimming and painting. I didn’t enjoy doing reflections because they are too easy! I learnt about Kandinsky who was born in moscow, Russia.


Overall I felt happy. I found most interesting painting colours. I could have listened more to Miss King because she knew more than me about Art.

Snow Day



Snow Day from Team 4 Pes on Vimeo.
Light snowflakes drift downwards blanketing the city. Transforming the landscape into a magical winter wonderland. Delicate flakes float, tumbling like a feather, dissolving slowly as they sprinkle on your tongue.

The cars went skidding and sliding, school’s now over for the day due to dangerous conditions. Slip and slide, there are broken trees that fell over from the wind last night. Plunging temperatures  and power cuts, people freeze in the severe storm.

Composition IV


Composition four is a swirling mix of colour and soaring lines.



   The painting is divided strongly down the centre with thick,black, vertical lines. On
                 left hand side violent motion is expressed by sharp jagged tangled lines. On the right
       hand side and calm emotions using sweeped forms and colour on top.




The dividing lines are really two swords held by red-hatted cossacks. Next to them a third
white-bearded cossack leans against the puple sword they stand before a blue mouintan with a castle on top.



In the lower left two boats are depicted and a rainbow. In the lower right two people lie on a hill while two priests are watching them.

Tyrone melted crayon


Our topic for term 2 is art alive YAY! Were going to learn about different types of art and their artists. Yesterday my class and I made melted crayons. First we got a canvas.

Next Miss King gave us some crayons. There were a lot of colorful crayons, Iisa told us to take the paper off the crayons. We had to use Miss King’s crayons because our cause didn’t glue onto the cardboard. We cut the stencil out of cardboard and made a word at the bottom of the canvas using black paint.

We got the hair dryer and melted the crayons, the gravity made it drip down and it got hard fast. It looked like a pig sty.

After that we made a movie of the artwork with the flip vid, we worked in groups.  l was happy with the artwork it looked cool.
