THE HOUSE ON MAPLE STREET

The house on maple Street

As Allie walks past ,the house starts to shake and rumble. As she steps back the house starts to lift and start to fly.

It all started when Allie and her friends were daring each other to do scary things although Allie got the worst dare, to walk down Maple street. The weirdest street in the town, maybe in the country. Why was it the weirdest street you may ask, well lots of weird unusual people lived on that street and the weirdest, freakiest, king of weirdos Rupert Sweenykins lived there right in the middle. He has lived there for 50 years people say.

Anyway as Allie walks past, the house starts to shake and rumble. As she steps back  Rupert Sweenykins house starts to lift and start to fly .

She can hear it lift off the ground completely as she runs away. Part of her wants to stay and watch it disappear into the clouds but part of her doesn’t because it dangerous and she doesn’t know what will happen. She runs all the way to the police station and explains what she saw but of course they don’t believe her, it’s just an adult thing. Even Allies Mum doesn’t believe her. She starts to pack everything that can fit into her one suitcase her teddy, most of her clothes, some snacks, some pillows and blankets and finally her wallet just in case she runs out of food.

2 DAYS LATER

 Allie hungry, cold and tired she wishes she could just go home but no she’s never going back where everyone thinks she gone mad and no one believes her. Suddenly she hears a toot a car toot but that's impossible she nowhere near a road or town. Then she looks up in the cloudless sky expecting it to be a plane she sees a flying house Rupert Sweenykins house. Allie can’t believe her eyes the house is still flying it’s impossible and amazing. As the house lands Rupert comes out and greets her. He welcomes her inside with a warm greeting. Rupert makes Allie a cup of tea. While she sipping her cup she explains when she saw take off, when she told the police, when she ran away everything.. “I’m not crazy i’m just very creative. But I still don’t get why you ran away from your loved one?” Rupert told Allie “They all think I’m mad even my mum thinks so” replied Allie who was now in tears “ why don’t you come with me in the flying house” Offered Rupert stroking his wizard-like beard “sure why not. But can I ask you something” Allie said WHy did you fly away in your house?” “ oh, well that my sweet is another story…

Complex Sentences By Sammi, Pippa and Bridget

WALT: create  DLO about complex sentences.

Nicole Laura Doolan

Nicki is my wonderful cousin. She is one of three sisters on my mum's side. She has long, straight, brown hair that's usually tied up in a messy ponytail. At the moment, Nicki is 178 cm tall (5 ft 8). She often wears Nike sneakers when she goes for a run or to netball practice, or sandals and a dress. Her eyes are a hazel and are very kind. Her smile is always showing because she is always happy. Nicki is also very pretty. Her favorite color is green but she never wears it. When you are mischievous she spots it almost immediately because she has eyes like a hawk...

Nicki is happy a lot and always energetic and fun. When she’s happy or excited she says ‘mint’ and ‘choice’ and when I get a bit over excited she says ‘calm the farm, dude’. Nicki went school at CPIT (Christchurch polytechnic institute of technology!). After she graduated as a nurse she hoped to get a job at the Greymouth hospital however, she got a job at the Reefton hospital instead. She now shares a house with a lady named Helen who she met in Reefton. Until recently Nicki lived in Greymouth and drove to work every day, but after some nurses delivered a baby in Reefton, she decided to move there so she didn’t miss out on the good, exciting jobs.

Nicki is very sensible and tells my brothers and I off when we need it .

If I could describe her in 5 words they would be kind, fun, helpful, smart and enthusiastic. When she was young she had a horse named Andy who still lives at Nicki’s house in Greymouth . Right now, one of her other sisters Kayla is in the USA at a horse camp as a teacher. Nicki would help anybody if she had the chance, partly because she is a nurse and also because she is very caring. Nicki loves netball before she worked in Reefton she played for Cobden who represent the west coast and the team also made it to the canterbury town and country.  When Nicki walks through our door my brothers and I instantly light up. Even after we have been told off.

It’s easy to recognise her most loved possessions. She loves her phone and has it at hand almost everywhere, it’s an iPhone 6s and she got for her birthday. She also has a little brown teddy named brownie that she got given when she was a baby. Nicki also loves all of her family members and friends. But most of all she loves me and my brothers and we love her!

Doing What We Love By Sammi

Doing what we love!

The waterfall was as beautiful as usual; water trickling down the glossy rocks,

The vibrant leaves and flowers swaying in the cool summer breeze,

 Sunshine beaming down on the mossy rocks,

Birds singing and chirping in the cloudless sky,

People admiring the breathtaking views of coal creek falls.

Rachel and I are having fun walking,

taking photos,

         chatting and watching the stunning scenery.

    Doing what we love.
