Sky Tower Excursion

As we were standing on the platform I could feel cold air blowing onto my skin I shivered. I said to Damien, “I hope the train gets here soon.” As we were waiting for the train we were chatting animatedly. Suddenly we could hear the clickety clack of the train on the rails coming towards us. I said to the boys, “We are off to the Sky Tower"”. As soon as we got into the train my body felt warmer.

When people were walking past us in the city I could see the Sky Tower. As we arrived we saw strong and sturdy concrete pillars holding the Sky Tower. When we went through the entrance we saw some shimmering glass. As soon as we got on top of the Sky Tower we could see two wires for the bungy jump. Reaching up to the heavens the Sky Tower stood like a tall tree.

As we were standing in the elevator, I said to Wiremu “Look at the glass panel on the floor’. Through the glass I could see right down the elevator shaft to the bottom floor. As we got to the top of the Sky Tower I could feel my legs shaking.

As we were walking around the Sky Tower I could see a panoramic view of the whole of Auckland. Suddenly I noticed some other glass panels. I could see the road way down below with matchbox cars and miniature people. With courage I walked slowly onto it. It gave me butterflies and my heart was pounding. I said to Damien, ‘Man this is scary’.

As soon as we were eating our lunch I could see a person jumping off the Sky Tower with some heavy clothes on and a little harness on him.

Then we went down.

Writing description about diving

Ben:

As the diver balanced she was taking a deep breath before she sprung of the platform into a somersault. The audience was quietly watching her execute her maneuvers. She flipped over and over until she reached the water, with clean entry when she made into the pool you could see her swimming back up with a bright spark on her body.

Trip to Film Festival

As we were reading our books in class Mrs Nua came in to get some of the people who wanted to go to the Civic theater. As soon as Mrs Nua got us she went to the other senior classes to get the rest of the kids who also wanted to go to watch some cool movies. After miss got all the kids she told us to sit down in the street. Then she called out the roll of the people who got picked to go to the Civic Theater. As everyone got told to get in a pair of two she said, ‘we are off to the Civic Theater’ said Mrs Nua to us kids.

As everyone was hopping into the bus Mrs Nua was counting if 35 people were going into the bus. As everyone hopped into the bus the bus driver closed the door and said off we go to the Civic Theater. As we were on the road we were singing lots of song like the wheels on the bus goes round and round. My partner was Isaiah From class 5.

As we got out of the bus we arrived at the Civic Theater in Auckland city. We got asked if anyone wanted to go to the toilet because we are not allowed to go the toilet  during the Film Festival. As people were going into the Theater the got asked by the security to sit in a row. We got put in row 4 or 5 soon as we got putted in a row we had to sit down before the Film Festival starts. Then a man came up to the front of the stage and introduced all of the school to the Film Festival.

When he finished introducing all the school he turned all the lights off. Then the curtains went up and then one film started to play the first film was about some kids who had special mums but one kid had a mum who was a aeroplane that could fly. Then there was a big storm and a tornado the kid was scared the nearly got caught from the tornado. Then the storm and tornado stopped. As it stopped it started to rain and the kid forgot to explain about his dad the dad was a boat. Everybody started to laugh hahaha.
