McLeod the Cat.

What’s orange and white with a white dot on it’s head? MCLEOD!!

My cat is a red and white crossbreed called McLeod. He has two rough but  brightly coloured ears poking out of his head. His eyes are as bright as flashlight, especially on an extremely dark night. When we bought McLeod, Sophie was so in love with him she almost fainted because of his spectacular orange colour!

McLeod is a cunning but lazy cat type that loves to sleep in the attic. Usually he goes up to the bunny cage and tries to figure out how to get In. Then one day he got In!!!!!!!!!!! I was looking out the window when an orange and white thing flashed round the bunny cage and I saw it was McLeod!! 

Whenever I go near the bathroom he's ready to “MEOW! MEOW! MEOW!” You know what I said about cunning? He pretends that he hasn't been fed! He has been our Cat for 5 years!    

Thanks for reading!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Storm

Boom! ZZZZZZ! Shhhh! went the thunder. I was frightened. The thunder was like a bomb exploding. I saw the lightning bolt shining through my window. I think somethings wrong with the weather!

"What was that?" I said. The rain drizzled down fast with a dripping sound with thunder until the rain stopped. No sound except the birds chirping in the night time. I still could not get a good night sleep because of the heavy rain pouring and the big thunder bangs.

Trip to the local Sikh temple.

Here are a few photos from our wonderful trip to the Sikh temple up the road for a talk about the Sikh culture and a delicious lunch.

Yesterday we walked to the temple. First we took off our shoes. Next we lined up and we put on an orange scarf to show respect. Raj talked to us for 1 hour. 

After that we walked down stairs and sat down. We ate rice and curry. The rice smelled like our normal rice. When we finished our food we said a big thank you for giving us food. We went to put on our shoes and got ready to walk back to school.

By Christian


In the temple we had to wear a scarf on our head. When we cover our head it is a sign of respect. I wore a sari. It is a sort of dress. 

The temple was as gold as coin. They told us all about their culture. I learned they can't cut their hair. On their right hand they can't steal because they have a bracelet that's sort of their god. It was made out of steel. 

They had the yummiest food ever. They had rice, dhal and best off all roti.

Ruapehu

On Friday, my family and friends drove to Ruapehu to go skiing.

First we put on our boots and skis then we put on our poles.

Later we went to the top to ski. It was hard to walk on the snow because the snow was slippery and wet. So we tried hard to climb up. Soon me and my dad climbed up to the top.

"Be Careful!" My dad said.  So I skied carefully but I still slipped sometimes on the snow. But slowly I was getting better at skiing, but I still slipped on snow a lot and I still tried hard.

Then we started to go to the cafe. The cafe was nice and warm with the heater so we relaxed. Soon we went to the bus and drove back to the motel and relaxed.

I felt cold tired and relaxed and happy in the snow because I loved skiing and having fun.

Alma

Once upon a time on a cold winters day, a young girl named Alma was skipping along the alleyway. She had blue eyes, long hair, a blue beanie, and brown gloves. 

Alma wrote her name on the blackboard. Slowly a doll came up on the machine. Alma saw the doll just like her. Alma wanted to open the door but the door wouldn't open. Alma was upset so she threw a snowball at the door. Alma stomped angrily off. 

 Then creeeeeek! The door opened up. Alma heard the sound and she tiptoed inside. She saw lots of dolls inside the shop. Alma saw the doll on the chair. Alma want to touch the doll. 

"Ding" a little doll was riding a bike. The little doll wanted to escape. Alma saw that the doll that looked like her had disappeared. "Where is my doll?" She said. Alma struggled. she looked for the doll everywhere. 

Soon Alma saw the doll on the shelf. She tried to touch it and then... Whoosh! Alma was stuck inside the doll. She breathed heavily and looked around. Alma was trapped!
