This year term 4 we have been doing swimming at GI pools to learn how to swim. We have been chosen in groups. There is pool 1, 2 and 3. Some of us have help from swimming instructors because some of us aren’t  good at swimming this is pool 2 but others have their teaches to help them in the big pool this pool 3.

We have about two weeks of swimming lessons to do before the end of the year the big pool is half the size of a rugby field and the middle pools is quarter the size of a rugby field. The people that have an instructor go to the middle pool and the big pool have the their teacher, so as pool 1. In the end we learned new skills that helped us a lot.

The Whisper


Jason heard a little whisper from a distance from his bed “Come here to me” the whisper was frightening him “come closer to me” the whisper came closer and closer as well as Jason came closer to it “yes, come closer” but then the whispering stop then quietly fell back to sleep.

“Wake up Jason Foster time to get up for school”. Jason got ready for school but was still sluggish from last night. As riding on the bus he heard it again “there it is again” worried Jason. Jason walk past the library then PUSH, Jake pushed Jason to the ground “leave me alone Jake” Jason said “you can’t tell me what to do because you are a little wimp” Jake insulted “JUST LEAVE ME ALONE” Jason shouted, he felt posed when he said that.

“Who shouted outside my door” said principal John “he did” Jake pointed to Jason “Jason get in to my office” yelled Principal John. As Jason sat with John, Jason heard the whisper again but this time It said “come back home I need your help” the whisper whispered “I’m sorry Mr John but I am not Feeling well today” Jason lied.

When Jason got into his house, Jason Heard the whisper and tried to followed it “come this way you are nearly there” the whisper whispered. As he went outside, there was no wind but it was cloudy. The Whisper lead Jason into the underground basement WHESESSHESH The basement winds were howling “at last you are here” It was windy inside but not outside “oh this is weird” Jason said to himself.

He looked under the washing and saw mystical book with dust on it “WWHHHH” Jason picked up it up and blew the dust off the book “the book of whispers”. To Be Continued

As I was getting closer to my classroom I felt more nervous, my hands were sweating, my heart was pumping faster than ever, I hid behind my Mum not looking at the other people but I held the nervous. My Mum grabbed My hand and showed me to my first classroom. “This is neo” Mum called out to the class, When she said I felt numb but the class said, “Hello Neo”.

The Rainbow Warrior


In 1985 July the 10th just before midnight, 2 suspicious people were lurking around Mechanics Bay by the harbour bridge. They launched their zodiac into the water and motored to Marsden Wharf where the Rainbow Warrior was. The two men that were lurking were actually french spies working for the french government but there were more of them. There were 11 spies hiding, some were pretending to be on a honeymoon and some were tourist     
Without a warning, the 2 men jump out of their zodiac and swam down in scuba diving suits underwater to the Rainbow Warrior Boat. They were suspiciously up to no good, they swam swiftly under the boat and started planting 2 limpet bombs on the Rainbow warrior. One on the engine and the other on the propellor.

Meanwhile, everybody on board was oblivious to what was going down below but continued on with celebrating their director, Steve Sawyer’s birthday. After a while, people started leaving the Rainbow Warrior and there were only about five or six people left on the boat.
They were just talking and had a few drinks but still didn’t know what was going on underwater. One quiet moment, ‘KABOOOM’. The first bomb went off. It set a person off his chair. They had thought another boat had hit them. ‘KABOOOM’. Goes the other bomb. “ABANDON SHIP ABANDON SHIP!!!!”, The captain shouted. Unfortunately, A photographer named Fernando Pereira did not survive and the 2 spies escape.

Greenpeace were protesting against the french government for nuclear bombing and radiation poisoning. They were planning to head down to mururoa atoll, but the French Government thought that if they blew up the Rainbow Warrior ship the Greenpeace would stop protesting them

My Son Is Naughty

Be Neo maths

Neo maths from Team 5 PES on Vimeo.
Jack and Ray were at the rugby. Ray’s team was winning
so Jack decided to give Ray a problem to deflate his ego a
bit. So Jack said “Did you know that today is my three
sons’ birthday?” “How old are they?” Ray asked taking
the bite. “I’ll give you a hint. The product of their ages is
36 and the sum of their ages is 13,” Jack replied. “That’s
no help,” said Ray. So Jack weakened and gave him
another clue. “O.K. My youngest son is very naughty.”
“Nothing to it,” exclaimed Ray and he told Jack the
correct ages of his sons.

Prospective student


Lofty peaks and high towering mountains was all the boy could see. He determined to reach his destination. As he climbed, he could hear the howling winds through the cold mountains. But suddenly, he dangles over a cliff cautiously gripping for his life and struggles but doesn’t  give up. As he was hanging, he reaches for the top and gets there all fatigued.

When he gets to the dojo he breath in then and and then he knock on the door. Then the sensa came out but points on the side. The boy felt sad and shrugged his shoulders, He thought he was not worthy But he to a breath in and out to keep calm. He sat down and meditated for a night.

The door was open and the sensa was at the door waiting for the boy to open his eyes. The boy opened one eye then stood up with all eyes open, but the sensa pointed to the side again. The boy walked away from the door but then stopped and felt raged and had a angry look on his face. He did his martial art moves looking like he was challenging the sensa, but once again the sensa pointed to the side, but this time he was pointing to the sign that said “please use side entrance”. The sensa was pointing to the sign the whole time. The boy had an embarrassing look on his face   

A Witch and 2 Assassin's


Once upon a time an evil witch stole her twin’s identity, because she was jealous of her sister. Her sister had won the love of the only man the evil witch had ever loved. Enraged the evil witch trapped her twin into an underground ruin, no one but the evil witch could ever get in.

Her evil twin sister looks like her but the problem is that she has a mole, she wanted her twin sister’s fiance. So then the evil witch went to her sister’s fiance and the fiance said, “Will you marry me?” The evil twin said, “Well, Yes of course.”

Hansel and Gretel walked in and Hansel looked at her face and thought to himself, “Mum doesn’t have a mole.”Hansel and Gretel went to their room and found a note that told them to lean on the wall so the secret layer could open.

They did exactly what the note said, and they bumped into an old man wearing an assassin suit. “Who are you” Gretel asked, “My name is John Kanichi and I'm the one who put the note there for you.” “Why are you down here all by yourself,” “I am your protector, come,” said John.

“Go into the girls closet Hansel and come back out, and Gretel  told the same to Hansel but he had to go into the boy’s closet and come out, they both ended up wearing assassin clothes with weapons inside their clothes. They both had a small axe, stone dagger, sword, bow and arrows, pistol and sludge hammer, and they both wore blue assassin clothes, and they both had I.D’s.

Hansel and Gretel asked the old man if he knew about what happened to their mother. Hansel and Gretel had to stop her from trying to marry. A few days later the evil twin was so excited to get married at 6:00pm. Hansel and Gretel got their assassin spy gear and got ready.

Their wedding started, but Hansel and Gretel said they needed to go get a present for them but they actually wanted to get their mother out of the cage. 35 minutes later they got their mum and brought her back and to the to the wedding and stopped it. They said that she was their real mother. They fought for a long time then Hansel called the assassin spies to take her to prison. Everyone was happy that time and they all lived happily ever after.

The Heart Attack Grill


I strongly think The Heart Attack Grill should not be allowed to operate in Glen Innes, NZ. their food is really unhealthy and filled with fat.



Their fries are deep fried in lard, which is animal fat and is known to be less healthy than vegetable fat. They offer burgers that are 4 patties high and is filled with unhealthy cheese and  grease.

The owner of the restaurant uses his customers for promotion and he is super morbidly obese that he lets people over 350 kg eat for free. The spokesmodel for The Heart Attack Grill, passed from obesity related illness and within a week they had hired a new spokesperson.

The Heart Attack Grill restaurant owner is promoting obesity through his food and lifestyle. THAG ( The Heart Attack Grill ) offers unlimited fries, laden fat and sugar drinks as well as giant sized burgers.The environment, waitress and costuming makes the restaurant look like a hospital. Warning signs caution the customers on how unhealthy the food is.

The counter attack could mainly be that the owner of The Heart Attack Grill believes he is selling a positive message. By shocking customers and the people on the USA, they will stop eating unhealthy foods. However, he continues to sell the food and kill people and make money. Is this truly positive message or one of a murder?

When you weigh up all the evidence, you can conclude that the owner of The Heart Attack Grill should be held accountable and that his restaurant should not be allowed to operate in Glen Innes, or in any county in the world.

That power


Will - i - am’s new song named that power means to me to follow your dream and become what you want to be.I think the song means to me to have a dream to achieve something that you wanted to achieve and it might come true. It means do what you really wanted to do.

the song could mean believe what you want to believe and it will be in front of you, it could mean keep the strength and power inside of you because if you don’t you will quickly fall to the ground and getting back up would be a bit tricky to do when you don’t have enough strength or power left in you that is what it means to.

Finding nemo - Just keep swimming


In the blue, warm,, dark,, deep ocean, Marlin sat depressed on a hard, mossy, gray, green rock.
Dory sang and danced happily in front of Marlin. “Hey Mr Grumpy Gills” teased Dory.
“When life gets you down, you know what you got to do? She questioned
“I don’t want to know what you got to do” Marlin replied annoyedly.
“Just keep swimming, just keep swimming,  just keep swimming, swimming, swimming. What do we do? We swim swim” sang Dory as they were swimming deeper in the ocean.
“Dori stop singing” glared Marlin.
“I love swimming when you want to swim” joyfully sang Dory.
“See I’m gonna get stuck now with that song now it’s in my head” again glared Marlin.
“Sorry” apologized Dory.

Surfing Dog

Jack, is a fifteen year old teenage boy. Who lives with his parents and younger sister, at their beachfront house, with their pets, which includes two cats, and their small dog named Wilson.

Because Jack and his family live close to the ocean, Jack learnt at a ridiculously young age how to surf, on his very own surfboard. He began surfing when he was a cute six year old youngster. And because he learnt so young, he became a highly skilled surfer, who loved and enjoyed being in the ocean, and playing in the surf.


When Jack turned eleven, his parents bought him a small puppy for his birthday. Jack was extremely happy, because he always wanted a cool pet dog, of his own. It was a smooth gray puppy that has brown eyes. He decided to name him Wilson. And from that day on, they would always play together effortlessly for hours.

Every time Jack wanted to go surfing, he would take Wilson for a relaxing time in the ocean, and the surf. And Jack would teach Wilson how to balance himself on the surfboard, as the waves smoothly rolled over them and the shore.
As Wilson grew, he became more and more confident and experienced in the water. And soon he was miraculously able to surf on his own board, by himself.
Some people thought it looked a bit astonishing, but now people just think its really awesome.

One day, Jack and Wilson and his family went down to the water.  Jack and Wilson went to  have a surf with life jackets. Carefully they jumped in the water with their surfboards. Jack creatively curved through the water like a professional and Wilson was surfing through smoothly
like it was so easy. But a big wave washed them onto shore, but they were not endured or hert.
They finished  having fish n chips and headed back home with an exhausted face.

100 words the car suddenly stopped

James came out of the bathroom, brushing his teeth, getting ready for the funeral of his grandpa. He put on a nice clean silky black suit with a black tie, some black long pants and dress shoes. Filled with rage, James was rushing down the stairs. They were late. James bounced into the car with his Mum and drove off, But he had forgotten something, his good luck charm - his blue stone.  They drove for an awfully long time, when suddenly the car stopped like a shockwave had hit it. Feeling frightened and afraid, without James’s stone they would perish.

The Red Rope


Neo Wyatt RED ROPE!!! including max and bloopers from Team 5 PES on Vimeo.

The black hole

In school, I was just doing my work and had to get more paper for my class from the printer.
Suddenly a black hole in the middle of the paper appeared on a desk out of know where. I did not know how I found it or how it got there, that made me curious and scared so I put my hand through it. It went right through it, that made me think I’ve discovered its power, and that made me feel really scared. I put a cup through it, and it went through it and ended up under the table.
I wasn’t so scared then.

I started using it for unlocking doors and practiced using it on tables because I wanted to have a bit of fun. It made me feel more encouraged and fully not scared anymore. I put the paper with the black hole on the floor and went through because I went crazy, but
I’ve just found out that there was no coming out. I was stuck in the basement and the door was locked. there was only one way out and that was through the window, but it wouldn’t open.
So I looked everywhere for anything to use for smashing the window open and I saw golf clubs
on the floor and used it on the window “smash smash smash”.

It opened. Then I climbed out and went free.

The Suran bay

On one of the humored days of Sunday, I went to this mysteries bay called Suran by foot. We crossed through the rocky roads Dolmar and through the maze of Morrowind and past the beautiful plants of Kumara and then we have arrived in the mysteries bay of Suran. So many have said that the beaches were haunted by that thing called the suran beast.

Its teeth is sharp as the sharpest razor blade, and its height is 20 metres tall, its bottom fin is purple and the rest is green, and it’s roar is loud as a pride of lions roar, but someone summons the beast and that man is a ghost.

He was a kind man but something went in him and darkness turned him over.
I went to investigate and I saw a cave. I entered it and I saw these weird stones. They were purple, that time I knew I was in the suran beast territory!!!
