The Girl With Too Many Pets - By Imogen 24.08.15

The Girl With Too Many Pets

Once upon a time there lived a girl called Lily. Lily had 2 cats, 1 fish, 4 dogs, 2 rabbits and a guinea pig. Lily's parents did not like her pets so one night Lily crept out of the house and into the wood with all her pets behind her.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   Soon she came across a cave and decided to sleep there. Later on she fell asleep with her pets beside her. In the morning Lily woke to the sound of birds.At first she could not remember where she was.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   Next she decided to go for a walk. Soon she came across a little spring. Lily kneeled down and sipped the delicious cool water. After that she felt much better and had breakfast. Later on Lily became very lonely. Despite her pets company she had no-one to talk to.The next day                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        On the way she saw a fox  and ran off the path to have a closer look. Soon the fox jumped across a ditch. Lily wondered how to get across. In  the end she saw it was impossible and returned home.Her parents were overjoyed to see her and were never mean to her pets again.

By Noah - Koalas 24.08.15

KOALAS


koalas are really, really soft and cuddly and they are cool and they're really nice.  They are also have two thumbs on each hand for holding on to trees. They also have no tail. They have black claws on there hands and feet. They have big round ears and have vertical pupils, which means their pupils go straight up and down.  Babies are the size of jelly beans.

Five Little Pumpkins. A poem by Jack



Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate
The first one said "Oh my its getting late"
The second one said "We don't care" 
The third one said "I see witches in the air"
The fourth one said "Let's run and run"
The fifth one said "Get ready for some fun"
So whoosh went the wind 
And out went the lights 
And the five little pumpkins rolled out of sight!

Kelly Tarlton's Sea Life Aquarium. By Dino


                    Kelly Tarlton's  Sea Life Aquarium

On Friday the 26 of June the whole of Pohutukawa went to Kelly
Tarlton's Sea Life Aquarium.  Room15 was the first to go onto the bus and be the first to be at Kelly Tarlton's. We saw some big fish and we saw stingrays. We sat down and we ate our morning tea. After that we went to the tunnel and we saw a school of sharks and a sand tiger shark. I saw five sea turtles and I saw a snapper and a crayfish. We went three rounds in the tunnel. Then when we finished we went to learn about unpolluted water and polluted water. Then we went to go to the fish. After that we went to see the stingray feed. The stingrays were scary when they went up. Then we had our lunch. After we went and saw the penguins. When we went back to school it was the end of the day.
