And this is my finished copy, do you like it? I've only just started and I think it's going good. Do you?

Bok Choy

 Jacob was busy stacking firewood to put on the fire. When his mum's delivery of bok choy arrived. When William Jacob's neighbour pulled the ugliest face Jacob had ever seen on a human. William was not being nice at all, all Jacob wanted was to go fishing and get away from the jerk. So Jacob got all of the equipment and went to the river.  And maybe just maybe he would catch a fish, how cool would that be in that time of life. So young you know. 

He was already at the river when, wooh he slipped and fell into the water that felt like a freezer in process he couldn't breath. He felt like he was going to die.  When he sees a rock down the river, he swam to the side that the rock was on. Jacob closed in to that side as soon as he got to the side that the rock was on he smashed into it and hard. He had been knocked out from his own doing.

Next he awoke in a small cramped space. When he sitted up he saw a man."I have been saved" Jacob said weakly, "Yes indeed you have" Jacob heard a voice say, "I am Ah Sum" the same voice said. "H-hi my name is J-jacob", is there anyone else in this room? "Maybe even my mum" said Jacob with now a worried tone in his voice, his beautiful voice. Ah Sum said "There would be, my family members here but there still in china, so I'm lonely most of the time but I still have the village" "Oh sorry" said Jacob"It's all right" "sorry to ask again but when is my mum gonna get here" "Right now" said Ah Sum. "MUM!!!" shouted Jacob in a much better tone than before. "Lets go home honey,come around for a fix up if you want" "No, no money thanks I don't deserve it that much, it's all in days of work." "Now be careful young Jacob" said Ah Sum. "Ok let's go shall we" "Yes mum, thank you so much Ah Sum", Jacob said with his mum. Jacob and his mum go home to find their annoying neighbours still there. "Oh please say your not cooking that tonight." "To bad we are, AND I'M SICK OF YOU AND YOUR SONS ATTITUDE, and ah KEEP YOUR SON AWAY FROM MINE!!!!!!!!!!!! Jacob and his mum walk straight past their neighbours their mouths wide open. THE END. Hope you enjoyed this story about Bok Choy.

Cross Country and ICE CREAM!!!

 Today we were going to do cross country and we were getting ready to go to the dunes and do cross country. We were getting ready by taking our jerseys off and getting ready to line up and start. Next thing I know Koka Sue was already counting down... 3... 2... 1... GO!!!

 My heart was beating the fastest it has in years, I was running as fast as my legs could carry. I was past the first teacher and I was right behind Tre, Tre was much faster than me so was incredible and amazing for me. I was really trying my best but Tre was faster and past me in a flash my goal was to beat Troy, because he was faster than me like Tre. I was getting so close to my second lap than I hear the year 4 and 5's cheer me on. I was thinking Wow and How at the same time Oska was catching up and fast, "I have to beat Oska, I have to beat Oska, I HAVE TO BEAT OSKA" I keep saying to myself. I BEAT HIM I ACTUALLY BEAT OSKA, finally we can go back to school.

We get back to school and we all want to get are ice cream, when we got back to class the teacher told us that we would get are ice cream at lunch. When the kids thought we would get it straight after cross country but it turns out we have to wait for the juniors to finish their race. We all were so gutted to hear that news, but we got over it later when we went to morning tea. Yummy I hear the kids say it turned out I didn't actually get an ice cream but i'm happy for the other kids.

Lockdown

 I know you may not think this is actually me but I kind of want to go to school, to see all of my friends face to face do you know what it feels like not to talk to all your friends alone. It makes you feels weird not going to school every day you don't know how lonely I feel, because I can't talk to anyone because they are so busy. But today I found out when I was doing some soccer practice the ball went passed my sisters window, and I found out one of them was watching a program not doing work, like the other one who was doing her work or even on a meeting. 

Rewinding to the morning when I decided to try and build a fort made out of blankets. It wouldn't be any good if you were in war. But yeah check down to the bottom of this blog if you want see a couple photos of the inside of the fort. But anyway I had some pretty cool plans but I didn't have good enough structures to the really cool plans including a hammock to lie and relax on, and really that's the only monster idea that I had. Quick tip: you need a lot of perseverance to make one on your own.

Today I was working on my school bee label a lot of kids have already finished their's and are making another one, I think Lola a girl in my class has done five and is already starting another one so that she will have a higher chance of winning. The crazy thing is that i've only done one draft for the bee label and the problem is that we don't have the right paper so we need to measure it to bee perfect and that's turned out to be the hardest bet of it all. Look down at bottom to see a photo of my draft and comment if you like it? I would love to see my friends face to face again would you, well if you don't mind and you like not seeing your friends face to face like we all used to, when there was no delta cases then I don't know who you really are. I would love to see my friends I think we all do. I mean if we've got through this once we surely can get through it again. I just want delta to go back from where it came from AUSTRALIA is were the source of this came from. I wonder how they would feel if they just got ride of covid, and we took them delta an even worse variant, I bet you they would not be happy comment if you think they would be happy?

Here are some photos I was talking about and also some little descriptions about what is.

So where the computer is siting in this photo is in the relaxing room, and further down you may see a bed and that is were I am going to sleep.


So this is my draft copy of my bee label it has got a person holding up some honey comb some bees flying around.

Mangaone Station

This week was a crazy and fun week, yesterday the government assumed  that they had found a case of delta in NZ!!! After the case corisbonded positive, the prime minister Jacinda Ardern had put the whole of NZ in level 4 after midnight!!! She had said specifically that she doesn´t want NZ to go through what Sydney had. The delta case had been tested in positive in Auckland, so Auckland will probably be in level 4 for longer than the rest of the country. 

But otherwise MLH and I went to Mangaone Station, we were lining up to go. And then Koka Rozie did a role to know if everyone was here, next we were told who was driving us. My cars driver was Bef Finn Emerre's mum, in my car I have Harry G, Harry M, Troy, Jandre, and last but not least Finn, When we got there the teachers told us what we would be doing and also put us into two groups, ¨the first thing that we are going to participate in today is¨ started Koka Rozie, ¨the activities that we are going to start doing is planting and mulching¨.

Once Koka Rozie had told us all what we were doing we got stuck in. I thought mulching would be disgusting but it was actually fine, I kind of enjoyed it actually I loved working with nature, so I keeped on running around trying to find a plant to put mulch around. And if my bucket had no mulch in it I would sprint as fast as my legs could carry me, to refill the bucket. 

At morning tea me and some other boys went to sit by the little river. I followed the river if there were any deep bits, when I come across this like pool looking bit, it had looked like you could do a mano in there or even swim. Koka Pip and Koka Rozie had given us a warning not go near Olly must not have heard, because he started to walk along the bank of the river, he eventually came back up to sit back down eat. But then a little while later Olly had gotten up and jumped to the other side of the river and said" It's easy as" so then some of the other boys went to join in. The teacher had spotted them and to them to get of the other sides river bank. The teacher had told them to get back on the grass to eat. The Koka Pip had told us why she had given us a warning, it was because Cory's brother had gotten bitten by and eal near the river.

Once we had finished morning tea we went back to planting and mulching. But this time the mulching team/team1 had to swap with the planting team/team 2, so my team had to plant now I wasn't really into planting but still got the job done when needed. When we had run out of plants and mulch we stopped and grouped up, the teachers told us we were going to see the lambs get feed, when she had told us everyone sprinted to were the lambs were keeped. When we got there at first the lambs were scared of us and then they started to get chilled and most of us held them, and then showed other kids how they like to be held. The next thing we were going to do was look at the old bush we planted, well not me but other kids from my class.

Once we had cheeked out the old bush that some kids from my class planted we went back to were our stuff was. When we got back some kids including me went down into were the sheep would go after being sheered.  It was dirty down there but I mean what would you expected.

What I think NZ's mascot for Olympics should be

 I think that New Zealand's (NZ's) olympic mascot should be a taniwha and a kiwi(New Zealand's native bird)combined with a taniwha body and a kiwi's head. The reason I like my design, is that they are two things ether found or known as in NZ. Taniwha there are tons of story's about it and there has also been a siting in Oke bay in the bay of island's so that is also only ever seen in NZ. Her is what I think the mascot should look like: 


       This drawing is a mascot with a Taniwha body and a Kiwi head, so that is what I think the New Zealand olympic mascot should look like.

QuickWrite

 It was just an ordinary day, when bang there was thunder, and with thunder there comes lightning. The trees were slashing , with the rain pouring down.

When there was another flash of lightning but this time it landed in the pool. Now there was a big crashing wave coming straight towards us.When a tree fell down right when the big crashing wave had passed the gate. 

We were amazed at it, because it had saved us from the big crashing wave that some how lightning had caused, but also it had saved us. Apparently a flash of lightning had had enough impact for a tree to fall over, witch had saved us from the big crashing wave. "That's amazing we all said". We were looking at the tree's and they were still trashing, but way harder than before. We were all settled down when we heard a big bang but this time it was louder, but it wasn't thunder or lightning it was much worse.

"IT WAS THE LARGEST PIECE OF HALE I HAVE EVER SEEN!!!" And by that I mean biggest piece ever. But then tons of small piece's started to fall, eventually they stopped, falling and it was the end of the day. THE END
