The Incredible Whale

The Incredible Whale

Far away under the deep blue sea lived a humble and brave whale and he wasn't afraid of anything. He could fight off sharks and rip open the nets that captured his friends but he'll come back in cuts and bumps. The sea creatures were so proud of him that they made him a royal guard to serve the king and queen.

One night he was guarding the front gate all by himself because they were all having a party for the king and queen’s daughter.  Then a fisher net came down to catch him and it did. The whale couldn't get out and when he reached the top of the ocean he could breath but he pretended to be dead. When the fishers got to shore, the whale hopped out and he got trapped in a garden maze but he knew that he could not stop. He kept on going and he finally reached the other side and dived back into the sea because he knew it will be time to go home.

He got back just in time for dinner. He had a really good adventure but that wasn't his last.

G.I School shows off their amazing skipping skills at the G.I centre.

by

Shanelle Williamson

Glen Innes School have been practising their skipping routines really hard before heading off to Glen Innes Shopping Centre to perform on Thursday the 27th of June. The children marched down to Glen Innes shopping centre. Most of the children were nervous but they were excited at the same time.

Mr. Naidoo and some helpers already set up the place. The children sat down around a big square looking very delighted. There was already a whole crowd of parents standing around looking at all the children.  Mr. Naidoo told everyone that they will be overwhelmed by the skipping skills of the children. Britney from room 11 was the MC for the day. She was pretty good.

Each class chose a music for their routine.  There was a variety of music played and it was very entertaining. Some parents were dancing to the music too. The children displayed great skipping skills and most people were amazed.

Everyone was cheering and screaming. So Mr.Naidoo was right, everyone was really impressed and wanted to see it again, but it was all over. The adults also had a chance to skip with their children at the end. One parent got the prize for being the best skipper. The children of Glen Innes School said, they will be performing at the same time next year.

Yummy Apples by Shanelle

I have been learning my 1 to 20 times tables and believe me they are really hard. This game is really good for me because I know my 1 to 10 times tables and it will be challenging for people that don't know their times tables.

My Popplet by Shanelle

We have been learning to use popplet to brainstorm our  ideas for our writing. Popplet is much easier to organize our planning.

Mother's Day Poem by Shanelle

Mother’s Day Poem

I love my mum from head to toe

We share our love that we both know.

She is the world to me

And it is true, you see.

I might forget her

but in my heart she will stay forever.

My mum is special in so many ways

And I will miss her every day.

She’s like a diamond in the sky

And she’s an angel that can fly.

My mum never rest

And she helps me to be the best.

Her lovely eye’s reminds me of the time

When me and my mum reads lovely rhymes.

Now you know how much I love my mum

She is bright like the sun.

Practising for the Touch Tournament

Every Monday, we have been practising for the touch tournament. I have been practicing with my squad and my teachers who are Mrs. Barry and Ata.  
We have  learnt skills such as stepping, so I can dodge my opponents. We have also been learning fake passes because my opponents will think that I’m going to pass that side but when really I’m going to pass the opposite way. 
What I’ll like to achieve from the tournament is to  win all my games and have a good time.      

Vacation by Shanelle

I would like to go on a vacation
very far away
I would take a private jet
to a place that we will stay

We will take supplies
for that scrummy adventure
we will take part
in a surfing extravaganza

We’ll get a surfing board
and surf the waves
we will get some bathing suits
for me and my crew

We won the extravaganza
that was so close
team John almost caught up
but we were too good

We have to go home now
we’ll come back again
It’s fun to vacation
far away on a plane
