Playing Ki-o rahi

Today we had to play a game called "Ki-o rahi".We also had to verse room 1 which was kinda weird for me since 2 of my friends (Rozaidah & Laolao) are in room 1.Once we went to the courts outside room 3 Whaea Kelly put us in teams.First she told us what number we are & I got to be in team 1. Whoever got to be in team 2 they had to go to the netball courts instead.The team I was in had to attack the players.When a player in the green team (Room 1) had the ball we had to take off one of their tags and they had to pass the ball to one of their team mates.On the first few rounds we got 12 points while the green team had 18 points.Then the green team had to switch over and go to the netball courts.The yellow team (room 1) had to verse us and we got about 7 or 8 points.They got 12 points.Team 2 (from my class) had won 2 games.

Narrative Writing 2/7

“Your parents wanted you to stay here until they find you”.Lotus was confused but she knew the villager wouldn’t leave her alone.”are you going to stay with me? And who are they?” He went quiet.Once they walked inside she knew where they were but she didn’t say anything. 

The place they were in was called “The Himuro Mansion”.Everyone who entered the mansion would not make it out alive.

The story of this was dated way back in the past.”There was a man and woman who loved each other but they had paranormal activities which couldn’t stop.Once they found a way to prevent this from happening it was fine for them.The ritual of this is to raise a girl and once she reaches the exact age (which is unknown) she would be tortured.Her remains would be at the gate.” This story is so messed up.

Lotus asked “why are we here? Can we go somewhere else please?” “You are asked to stay here so don’t complain”.Once they opened the door a little girl was sitting down crying.The male villager whose name is Park was about to run away but Lotus stopped him.”She needs help.Can we help her?” “I suggest  not.You don’t know who she is.Stay away from her at all costs.”

Biosphere 2

Task description - Today for inquiry we had to do a task which is all about "Biosphere 2".Biosphere 1 is all about the earth.

Special Visit!

Today we had 2 special guests who were Joseph & Elizabeth Parker.

Everyone was surprised mainly since we did get hints from Mrs Tele’a

but we actually thought it could be Mrs Tele’a relatives or someone she

knew very well.Once they both came in Joseph started to say how thankful

he is to everyone.Elizabeth was also very happy to be there.

Joseph also stated that if you believe in yourself you will feel better with yourself.

But then he also said that “nothing,can beat hard work” which is really helpful to

our school since we always say no matter what happens we need to believe in

ourselves.Mr Burt also added that we need to sanitize our hands even when our

country is covid-free. 

Narrative Writing (Choose It) 1/7

(Warning:The village is completely abandoned and the village is real.The mansion is very scary and it’s real.The mansion’s  story is completely real!)

One day there lived a girl named “Lotus”.Lotus lived in a very small but friendly village called “Inunaki Village”.This village has a very bad/terrifying past.Here’s the story,once there lived a small girl named “Rose”.Rose is friendly to everyone who used to live there.

But one day she accidentally fell into a pond which was very deep.No one could save her so she had a sad death.The villagers were mourning over her death.Around 12:30am a villager grabbed a weapon or at least something to attack the villagers.

Some nights she would hear noises coming from the small villages.Once she even heard a scream which crept her out the most.But she even saw an apparition of a male with a knife or axe.

Once that villager grabbed that sincere weapon they snuck inside other people’s small house and started to hurt them with it.The most important thing she didn’t know was that the villagers who usually look after her are actually the spirits of the scene which happened before.

Everyday she would go by the pond and get to see a small girl who was once known as Rose.Lotus was scared but it turned out to be her reflection which was weird since she actually saw a small girl before.

Lotus soon ran back to the village and she was so scared so she never looked back.Her parents were confused but as soon as Lotus described the girl’s facial features they went silent.They walked towards Lotus and grabbed her.Her father threw her outside which nearly killed poor Lotus.A male villager walked towards her and took her with him.

Lotus was screaming & crying since she was injured.The male villager immediately covered her with a blindfold and tried to keep her warm throughout the journey.As soon as they arrived at their destination Lotus kept quiet.The villager took off her blindfold and held her hand to keep her safe.

The Staircase (Narrative Writing)

Today we had to do a writing test.I was kinda shaking since I didn't know what to do but then I thought of doing something like this.

There were 4 girls (Lisa,Minnie,Joy & Sana).These girls were sweet to others.On 14,Jan 2000 (5:30 PM) Joy was casually walking in a forest but then she realised something was wrong.Out of nowhere she got frightened.There was someone following her but lucky the 3 girls were with her.”Girls,some is following us!” “How are you so sure?” said Lisa.

Sana was confused but she was the bravest one there.Minnie turned around to see no one was there.Joy suddenly passed out while someone was laughing. “Who is there?!” “Leave us alone!!!”. After a while the girls noticed that it was getting a bit dark.A little girl came out of nowhere and saw the 4 girls.

Lisa knew the girl was suspicious since she was wearing a red dress with dark red splattered all over her dress.Minnie & Sana both said “Why are you here little-” but they were cut off by Lisa whispering “guys,she is a ghost.She is the ghost who died from a doll who killed her and she wants to kill anyone who had spotted her or whoever talked to her”.

Joy was shocked.”How could a beautiful young girl be so scary?” Nobody other than Minnie believed Lisa even though Lisa was truly right.”The girl’s name is unknown but she was killed by a doll named Mary-san. Mary-san is truly deadly but that doll is in Japan only where we are”.

Sana was so upset.”he-he,HAHAHA!!!” The girl was laughing hysterically non-stop.The girls dashed their way out to realise their lost.The sky was deep black.When they looked at their watch…”It’s 12:00!!!” “We need to go home now!!” Minnie was too busy choosing to go up the mysterious stairs.

Lisa ran up the stairs leaving the girls shocked.The others also slowly went up… When they went up they all saw a cabin with other people in it.Most of them were the girl’s friends.Once they went inside a speaker suddenly said “1,2 1,2” everyone hid in places like under the bunk beds,in the forest outside and more.Lisa,Minnie,Sana & Joy ran and hid in the wardrobe.

The door burst open and Minnie looked through a small hole to realise the girl was back again! When she told the others they wanted to scream but Sana noticed that Mary (The girls name was found) was holding a knife behind her back.Mary was jumping on the beds and killing the girls one by one.

Joy was slowly getting sick and suddenly Mary opened the closet door… The girls were able to make it out alive but Joy immediately said “RUN!!!” and they saw another staircase so they went inside a house.Locked the door and when they turned on the lights… Sana said “where are we?” “are we inside our house since it’s been an hour getting away from a girl who looked innocent?” 

Lisa looked around and she knew they were back home but why was their house in a forest? They heard a knocking type of sound but luckily the windows and doors were completely shut and locked.When Minnie peered through the window she was nearly crying. Lisa straight away yelled out “Leave us alone!!! What did we ever do to you!!!” 

That’s when she knew she shouldn’t have done that.Joy grabbed a sharp weapon (preferably a knife) and slowly opened the door… Mary was about to stab them but Joy immediately stabbed the girl and they became safe.
