In the holidays by Harrison and Jordan


On Thursday me and my family went to Greymouth and we stayed in a motel. It had a spa bath. The next day we went to Shantytown and went gold panning and we got to keep the gold.  After we went to Shantytown we went to Westport and stayed at one of my mum and dads friends houses. They had two boys called Wayde and Reece. They also had two pets called Choc and Henry.

I went to Wellington to see my mum. I went to the Weta Cave. I saw a statue of Snowy and Tintin and the Hobbit. I watched a movie about the Weta Cave and how they put things together.

On Thursday we picked yummy vegetables from Room 7's garden. There were curly cabbages, rhubarb, spinach, celery and kale. We planted them at the end of February. Riley's mum cooked the rhubarb for breakfast. Ian is going to have his rhubarb on ice cream!

Pirate Hunting By the Tuis and Kiwis.

On Thursday we dressed up like dirty pirates and drove in cars to Mapua. 
Room 7, 6 and 5 lined up to get on the ferry. When we hopped on the ferry we spotted Captain Blunderbus and went crazy.
When all of us got to the island, we set off for the treasure. Then we looked for clues. Captain Blunderbus said go East, and we found a wheel.
We walked through the forest and found a skull.
Next we went through the forest walking along going towards east. We crept a few steps and then again and again! Just then we found some of Captain Blunderbus's pieces of gold on the ground and we also found a canon ball. Then we found some games and a chest.
Inside the chest were drinks and biscuits. We played some games then we went on. We walked along the dusty forest road to find the treasure. That took very long and was very hard and tiring, so we got very thirsty and hungry.
Next Captain Blunderbus gave us the next clue with a code. It was a bit hard but we got it.
Soon then we went west to find the cannon behind the tree. Then we followed the clues down the track, and we got to the point were the  treasure was. We found a clue that said, go west.
We found an x and Tane dug it up. Captain Blunderbus  threw a key but the key was too big. So he threw another key and Hamish caught the key.
The key opened the treasure chest and inside it there were crunchies and chocolate coins! Everybody dug in.
After that Mrs Duncan blew the whistle and we all walked back to the ferry and climbed aboard.
It was a fun, fantastic, adventurous, scally

wag pirate assignment!!!!

Pirate Blunderbus By Boyd

On Thursday Captain Blunderbus came to School. He wanted to bury his treasure chest. He stole the treasure off KIDD because it had his name on it. Pirate Blunderbus was shipwrecked, lost and he had no home. He walked across the road with a broken wheelbarrow. We had to wait on the steps on the veranda.
In the treasure chest he had his telescope, a compass, sword, an hourglass, gun powder and a treasure map that he left behind.
Next Thursday we are going to find some treasure because he left the map behind.

Captain Blunderbus! By Darby

On Thursday Captain Blunderbus walked down the road pushing a  broken wheelbarrow.
Captain Blunderbus was shipwrecked, lost, had no home and couldn’t find somewhere to bury his treasure. He was really funny.
Rooms 5,6 and 7 sat on the steps under the veranda at school and looked in the chest. There was the pirate’s belongings.
Next week on Thursday we are going to find Captain Blunderbus’s treasure.
