My Holiday.By Kate

Year 5 — Tue, 12 Jun 2012 11:36:51 +0000

On the 25th of May , me and my family went to Walt Disney World Florida. We were staying at Fairfield Inn. It took us 8 hrs to get there by plane but the entertainment was great. There were around 35 movies to choose from. I watched Johnny English Reborn , War Horse and Twilight Breaking Dawn. There were about 20 albums to choose from. I listened to One Direction, JLS and Demi Lovato. There were about 25 TV shows and 15 channels to choose from. There was a section to call someone on the plane and you just typed in their seat number and you could speak through the remote. When we got off another plane had landed so it took an hour to get through passport control. After that , there was a fire on the road so we had to wait another hour and it took us fifteen minutes to get to our hotel. When we got there they had us booked for one room instead of two connecting rooms so we got two separate rooms but one was being clean so it was 10 pm before we got our rooms.

On the second day we went to Magic Kingdom. It was a 15 minute bus ride there and then we had to take a 5 minute monorail to the actual park. We first fast passed what we wanted to go on but we queued for Splash Mountain. My sister and I got very wet on it. Our favourite ride , Big Thunder Mountain, was closed. We queued up for Space Mountain as well and my sister loved it.

On the third day we went to Epcot. We first got a fast pass for Soarin. Then we went on Mission Space. It is a simulator that takes you to Mars. We then went on Soarin and it is a very good simulator. We watched shows and went around the different countries. We also went on Space Ship Earth. It takes you around a building that tells you about what has happened since the earth started , then it takes your photo, you answer some questions and then it puts you into the future.

On the fourth day we went to Animal Kingdom. We all went on Expedition Everest and my sister loved it. We went on a safari trip and saw a lot of different animals. We also got a fast pass for Kali River Rapids but because of the tropical storm it was shut.

On the fifth day we went to Aquatica and we went on big scary slides. They were called dolphin plunge, omacka rocka, whanau way, walhalla wave, tassie twister, hooroo run, tauma racer and the river rapids. It was raining so there was hardly anyone there and we went on the slides about five times. We went in a pool and every fifteen minutes the lifeguard would say surfs up and big waves would appear and everyone got soaked.

On the sixth day we went to Hollywood Studios. It was my sister’s first time on rock n roller coaster and she loved it. We watched Muppet Vision, Disney Channel Rocks and Beauty and the Beast. We met quite a few characters. We went on tower of terror and it was great. They were our main two rides.

On the seventh day we went to Magic Kingdom again and met a lot of characters. We got a fast pass for Big Thunder Mountain and then went on it. Splash Mountain was closed but it then opened and I got soaked.We queued up to see Merida from Brave. We also queued up to see two characters from Tinkerbell. I queued up for an hour to go on Space Mountain with Dad and Grace.

On the eighth day we went to Animal Kingdom and did all the things we love. We managed to get on the river rapids. We went home half way through the day and it was chucking it down.

On the ninth day it was our rest day in the pool. I met a friend and we both got very sunburnt. My Dad didn’t put any cream on his face because at golf it is sunny so he is used to it. At the end of the day he had a tomato face.

On the tenth day we went to Epcot and we did what was best. We did a character meeting and we queued up for 40 minutes.There was an innoventions place and we did a piggy bank video. You did challenges to earn money for something. There was also a weather game were you decided what you needed in a storm and if they had that object you had to place it in the right place. My favourite was the build your own roller coaster simulator. You got to choose three steps and then you got into a robotic arm and it moves side to side and up and down.

On the eleventh day we went to Seaworld and for the first time I went on Manta and Kraken.This is Manta.

This is Kraken.

We went on to Journey to Atlantis and I got soaked. We went to the sting rays and me and my sister touched them all. We all watched a 3D show called Turtle Trek. My favourite show was the whales and the dolphins show. I wasn’t allowed to sit in the splash zone at the Shamu show. My favourite rides were Manta and Kraken. I got to feed the dolphins and I loved it. Sea world is my favourite park.

On the last day we went to hollywood studios for a bit and went on rock n roller coaster and tower of terror again. We then went to downtown disney and had an ice cream. We then went to our hotel and collected our luggage. We then got a taxi to the airport and had our tea. When we got on the plane I looked at the entertainment and it was terrible. It was eight am before we got back. We drove back to my house and unfortunately my fish was dead. We then went to sleep for 3 hours.

I loved my holiday and we are going there again just not in that hotel.

Tuesday … AGAIN

Year 5 — Tue, 15 May 2012 15:29:20 +0000

As the sun goes down and the moon is rising something else is rising as well.. Mice squeak a the floor falls further away. Out of the window they flew.

Above the puny houses,they flew, in search with on thing on their mind.CHEESE! Luckily there was a cheese factory near by. The mice swam taking big gulps of the cheese while doing the mousey paddle. After nearly exploding there little (but now fat) bodies they thought a nice rest would do them good.

Do you remember the old ladywhom had met the frogs? Well she was in for a even bigger suprise! They floated slowly into the house and sat on her lap , drank her coco and wachted “How to make the perfect cheese”. Soon the mice left leaving cheese on her remote!

“My Witness Interview” By Alice

Year 5 — Tue, 01 May 2012 11:50:58 +0000

My task was to write a witness interview with the police. I hope you enjoy it and could you comment on my post to tell me if I could improve anything, thanks

Sitting alone in my ancient living room, I was watching my favourite tv show ‘Deal or No Deal’ (I do love that Noel Edmonds, don’t you?) when I presumably dosed off at around half pat eight.

It must’ve been an hour later at half nine when I was woken up by a large BANG! I could not believe it! My favourite lamp I got when it was my wedding day in the summer of 1927 had been smashed to pieces! Now, I know you may think I’ve gone nuts when I say this but I swear I saw one hundred ugly toads swarming around me! Slowly rising from my beautiful arm chair, I travelled to the kitchen to grab a broom. Consequently, because I had taken too long to get the broom, the toads had vanished.

There were a couple of things I noticed that had changed since I fell asleep. Firstly, my beloved Deal or No Deal had been changed to MTV on the tele, and someone called Nicki Minaj (what a silly name) was singing about ‘Starships’, I have to say she wasn’t very good either! Also, my remote had been sprayed with sticky goo and had spread into the battery compartment so I couldn’t change the channel as you can’t do it on the TV. That reseolved in me having to watch MTV all night.

All in all, I have come to hate toads as well as MTV too. So has Tibbles (the cat). Life’s not fair soemtimes, I suppose you just need to get on with it.

Mrs Bailey’s statement to the police by Aaminah

Year 5 — Tue, 01 May 2012 11:48:31 +0000

Sitting alone in my ancient green arm chair, I was watching my favourite show (which only comes on,on Tuesday)on my cheap TV.Suddenly I dozed off for about an hour or more and when i woke up and saw dozens of green spots I squinted my eyes thinking that it would make it more clearer.However,no luck,I could still see dozens of huge spots.

Taking my glasses off, I now saw more spots but now it looked like toads I was petrified I couldn’t believe my eyes.I blinked several times but nothing happened.They were watching a horror film so I went in front of them and they all started to stare at me.It was like they were hypnotized they didn’t even blink.

At 10:30 this all happened.Despite the fact I was 69 years old, I still frantically ran to the kitchen but unfourtunately on the way I slipped on a slimy lily pads I fell on my back and I probaly have several bruises.Eventually I got up and carried on going to the kitchen.I grabbed my broom from the corner of the room.However,when I got back the disgusting toads were gone leaving their lily pads and slime all over the remote control.My cat,called Sweety,had been underneath the table all this time.

Joke

Imagine your on an island. Your lost and scared. Then you come upon a lake which has sharks in it and is very dirty. You need to go across the lake and you try to think of a way. What do you do?
