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.

Mr. Scaredy Pants

Mr. Scaredy Pants

Just before Halloween, a monster named Mr. Scaredy Pants went hunting out in the woods. He is really glowy and he had lots of thorns all over his body, but he was very horrifying. While he was hunting, there was lots of noises such as owls hooting and squeaks coming from everywhere he goes. He decided to go back to his red tent waiting for the next day to come.

Around 5 o'clock in the morning, Mr. Scaredy Pants went out hunting again. He pinpoint a deer strolling around in the forest. Once the deer sat down for a rest, Mr. Scaredy Pants pounced on the deer and twisted its head. Then he picked it up and started walking to the tent. While he was galloping along, a thunderstorm struck the tree that was next to Mr. Scaredy Pants. The tree slammed on Mr. Scared Pants and he couldn’t get out, so he waited for someone to come to his rescue.

A moment after the tragic accident, he realized that he could change. So he changed into a little ant and slid right out. Then he saw something and it was a snake with metal armour. He trotted as fast as he could but Mr. Scaredy Pants was so frightened that he peed his pants and his pee was acid. The snake kept going closer to Mr. Scaredy Pants and Mr. Scaredy Pants turned around and he peed on the snake. The snake shut down and stopped chasing Mr. Scaredy Pants. Mr. Scaredy Pants pulled down his pants and then BigFoot came along and saw Mr. Scaredy Pants bum and quickly ran away. Mr. Scaredy Pants wiggled his pants back on and ran away as well. While he was skipping, all the animals smelt him and then they fell to the ground. After Mr. Scaredy Pants was  gone, all the animals died from his smell and no one was alive.

After that Mr. Scaredy Pants did not go back again. He stayed in his cave and he agreed that he would not go alone again, but do you think he has stopped going on adventures?

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

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.
