The terrible gun shot.

Help help!!!!! I heard a strange sound from outside. What could that be?, I ask myself quietly. Just before the soft voice I heard a loud crash! followed by a loud bang!. It sounded like heavy metal falling down from the sky. I  spy out the window and it was pitch dark black, I can’t see the person but I can hear him calling for help. So I sneaked slowly outside and wore my slippers.

       My ears were as good as a dog, As I switch on both ears and followed the voice. When I was closer to the injury, the sound went louder and louder and my goose bumps were starting when I heard a whining noise. I walked towards the voice and I saw a person lying down on the ground completely injured. I asked him what was wrong?, and he said he got shot right on the ripps. I ran to the nearest house and got some help. The owner of the house called the ambulance and the owner came as possible to help the injured person. We stopped the blood by holding the sore, after a few second we heard the ambulance hurrying to the scene. They cleaned up the mess and took the homeless injury to the hospital. After 3 weeks the doctors called me that the homeless guy is free from the hospital. I was filled with traiphum and excitement.

Tour to Australia.

On Monday the first day of the school holiday term 3 my team and I went to Manly Australia for a rugby competition. On arrival and to relax we all decided to go for a swim at Manly beach. We got there by floating on a ferry. Manly is just similar to Gold Coast. The first thing I did was lay on the hot yellow sand. The sea was as blue as the sky on a summer day. I felt the pressure of the heat, the sun made me feel as hot as an oven.

When I stood on Ilawwara's rugby field I was so proud to represent my country at rugby union. My team and I were starting the warming up for our big game. When the referee blew the whistle, it sounded like a shrieking sea gull.  The boys took on they'er own position for the scary New Zealand haka. The boys knew that this is their talent and this is what they do really well. We had 10 rugby games and we won all our games. When we travelled back this was a fantastic experience for my team and for me. At the same time everybody was so happy to be back home and see their families.

My Sport Experience.

                      Winter Rugby

Every Saturday during winter time I always get excited and charged up. I live 5 kilometers away from the University Rugby Club which I play for as a forward.

In every game I strive to do my best to win this season for my club. I hear my voice inside my head telling me to stay calm. First our halfback kicks off and then we forwards are hungry for the ball. Every game I tackle, run, kick, throw, pass, dive, catch, sprint and have fun with my team. Sometimes I get frustrated and sometimes not. If the forwards don’t do their job properly, we lose the game.

After my game, my coach and I are out of energy. I’m tired and hungry and I can’t wait to get back home.

When I’m dropped off at home, I open the door and rush to the shower. The warm water re-energizes me. After my shower I feel like I haven’t eaten in centuries. I eat as much of whatever is in the pot and it tastes so delicious. As soon as I have eaten I dive into my bed and have a big snooze.

When I finish every game I feel like I am one day closer to being an All Blacks.

The Rock Warrior.


The Patupaiarehe people lived around the lakes of Rotorua at a place called Ngongotaha hundreds  years ago. These people were fair skinned and they were very good gardeners.
The Tipua people were giants and they were very bad tempered. These people wanted to take the beautiful lake and the land away from the Patupaiarehe people.

One day the Tipua war party marched through the Mamaku forest towards Ngongotaha. The Patupaiarehe people became very scared. They asked their leader to save them with his magic spell.
Tongakohu lit a fire and began chanting his magic spell. Soon the Tipau giants started feeling tried and they decided to stop marching and take a rest. After a while the Tipau giants wanted to move but they could not because they had turned into rocks. Finally, Tongakohu was able to save his people from the Tipau giants.

Cultural Day Feedback.

One of the highlights of the Cultural Sharing Day for me was the presenters. They did a great effort to do that job well because they were very confident. But in room 7 we were learning about South Africa. First of all some of the student in Room 7 were discovered to be a presenter and the rest was rotating around the classes. But I felt sad for the other kids because they were missing out the fun. Unfortunately they had a chance to rotate.
