Willow and the underwater dragon of the depths

By, Nivara

In the depths of the sea where savage monsters lurk in the time of winter. Two hard-headed sea experts named: Ash and AJ. They dived down to the depths to explore the underworld to the sea of creatures and to examine things sunken over the years. 


Suddenly they saw a sudden glow flash in a ragged hole of a humongous ship so they looked through the hole and saw a fierce red-eye, then a nose, then the whole body. “Roarrrr!“ went the fierce underwater dragon, it’s name was Axl the dragon. The first expert said, “swim for cover “ and swim away. The monster chased after them but then they all heard a great metal clang then the monster's eyes turned black and slowly turned around shot forward towards this mysterious person. 


And suddenly a profitable shrine of sacred trident appeared in the hero Willow’s hands and charged seaweed and water vines followed by her side.  She tricked the Axl into swimming into a net of seaweed that she created behind her while she  ZOOMED under Axl. He was stuck for a moment but he broke the trap with his super strength and charged again. But this time he had injured Willow as she lightly sunk on to the sand while Ash and AJ scurried precipitately to congregate the treasure and gold that the Axl was sleeping on. 


Axl slowly turned around and peered at Ash and AJ and turned its head sideways and in a blink of an eye, it flung straight towards them as their eyes were like saucers. But then Axl felt a consolidated tug on its tail “SHE'S BACK!”, shouted Ash and Aj. “You mess with me, you mess with my power. Sssssshhhhhh!!”, as she struck a bolt of lightning and defeated the monster. “Yeah!”, said Ash and Aj cheered as they gave each other a high five but as soon as they looked back she vanished.

The cure

By, Zaibunissa

A while ago in 2020, there once lived a wealthy healer with a super-smart brain which goes by the name of Super Doc-20. While she was having her breakfast, she heard the news on TV.” There is a tremendous outbreak of coronavirus. It is a toxic disease that nobody could find a cure for”, surprisingly announced by a news reporter. At this time, she was on a work trip to experiment with different products for the medication in American Texas.


As soon as she heard about it on the news, she decided to peruse around online for a possible cure of the virus-like bees looking for pollen. After hours of research, she came across this one website that contained many mixtures that might cure this virus.


She picked one called Paracetamol out of all the different varieties and got all the supplies that it needed. Then began to put the mixture together. “BAZINGA!!”, went the mixture. Plop! the virus dropped into the mixture. Eventually, the virus started to react...SWISH!! SWASH!! But the Paracetamol failed and the virus was still jumping up and down BOINK!! BOINK!!


The death rate started increasing higher and higher to almost 1098 deaths so all borders were closed. The virus contained within each country since traveling between countries was limited.


While experimenting with different medications, her super-smart brain went “DING!!” A light bulb lit up on her head and she noticed this only medication which was called Antibiotics. “This might be the one”, said Super Doc-20 crossing her fingers.


She collected those supplies she needed and began to put them together. SWISH!! SWASH!! KAPOW!! KABOOM!!, went the mixture. “It's working”, she cried out loud.


She injected it into a volunteer covid patient to test it out.  The patient started shaking and turning side to side POW!! WHAM! ”It works! It works”, she blurted out and jumped up and down.  “Thank you Super Doc-20. You executed the virus from me. YOU DID IT!”, said the toughest volunteer covid patient. She was delighted that she admired the smart brain and the successful experiment of Super Doc-20.


Someone reported to a news reporter as soon as they heard that Super Doc-20 had found a cure for this virus. Super Doc-20 was on the news for her spectacular exploratory of the only medicine for the unstoppable virus. For a short name for coronavirus, she called it covid-20. The medication was called Antibiotics and made by Super Doc-20 She was one of the world's ever heroes to find a cure for a toxic disease. WHAAM!! BYE, BYE CORONAVIRUS!!

A day to remember during the Pandemic Period.

KFC DINNER


It was a cold night and I was watching YouTube and my mum approached me and said “Siaosi, do you want to go to KFC with your sister?” and I said “YO! I'm going to get ready”. Waiting in the car, I was already having nightmares about the busy drive through the queue. At that time we rarely had any food at home.


A couple of minutes later, my mum and sister hopped into the car. THE EPIC AND LEGENDARY ADVENTURE BEGAN!  We went to Manukau KFC first and ‘oh boy!’  I was a Simpsons animator because I predicted how busy the queue was going to be like.

                                     

A couple of KFCs later, we arrived at Otahuhu KFC Drive-Thru and it had the same results but my mum gave up and so we waited in the long queue.  Millions of centuries later while waiting, we started playing annoying songs that my sister likes. Billions of centuries later COVID-1000 exists, we´re all robots and we finally got our KFC.KFC | Otahuhu Mainstreet


On the way back home, I begged my mum to eat in the car, and eventually, she said “Yes”.  Sadly we didn't get potato gravy which goes well with wicket wings in case you haven't tried it.


When we got home,  I ate a few wicket wings then continued with my nonstop watching recommended  YouTube videos sessions. 


In conclusion, I was so excited for the next day to wake up and eat the leftover KFC for breakfast. What a night!

OUR GAME NIGHT


On a very dark night at home my cousin, uncle and I were playing on my PS4. We were playing Call of Duty Modern (COD) Warfare 3 players and Zombies Snow Biyom Castle.                                                           

After an hour of playing COD games, we felt hungry so my uncle was getting pizza for us.  Since he ordered the pizza by phone, it took a long time for it to arrive.  


Then finally we heard a knock on the door so we all ran to check if it was the delivery, “YES!” Everyone said. So we all dug in to fill our hungry stomachs and because we were so hungry that we ate the pizza so fast. As soon as we finished the pizza we went back and continued playing our favorite game.


Besides, I began to feel bored playing COD and so we decided to play a different game like Apex.  While we were playing, my uncle wanted to go sleep then it was just me and my cousin that continued to play the game. We got bored fast so we went to sleep since we were also tired.


Phew! What a tiring night we had.

Family Lunch

On a very hot morning, my mum got a call from my uncle. He was asking if we could have a small lunch. My mum said, “Ok, come when you're ready”.  We decided to have fish and chips because we were on Alert Level 2.


While we were waiting my sister was making banana bread.  We gathered the ingredients first then me, mum and my sister were making the banana bread altogether.  It was fun but confusing at the same time.  My part was mixing the wet and dry ingredients all together. The smell while it was baking the oven smelt like a bakery.


A few minutes later my uncle arrived with the fish and chips. My heart dropped with overjoy and my mouth started watering and my eyes widened.


Then uncle Tua came with homemade brownies. They were so chocolaty and looked delicious that it caught my eyes. I wanted to grab one and already gobble it down.  My sisters and I decided to eat some brownies because they looked catchy. They were so chocolaty and also delicious. On my first bite, ‘OH!’, the flavors took me over the moon.


Even Though it was getting dark and late, everyone wanted to watch a movie.  I was so excited that I was bragging about the movie that I wanted to watch.


After our first movie, we planned to have a baking challenge so we made chocolate cakes. We gathered the ingredients and I was excited.  My mum was the judge because she has a sweet tooth so my mum tasted everybody's cake and mine was the...BEST.


It was getting late so my uncle had to go home. We were sad because we had to say goodbye and it will be boring without him. So my mum, dad, and I had to clean up the big mess.


In conclusion the day was sensational and I wish we could have a day like this again.

The Family Dinner and Movie Night


On a one gorgeous afternoon, we had a family dinner to celebrate level 2. We had a family dinner in the afternoon because we knew the sunset would be beautiful. We had our dinner at Nana and Papa's house.  It was fun. 


So the first thing I did was set up the ps4 so my family and I can choose what movie to watch on Disney Plus. 


And after that, my aunties and uncles arrived with their homemade food.  My uncles brought chips from the fish and chip shop they work at and my other uncle made 30 of his well-made chicken. Oh MAN!!! that was yummy!! 


I forgot to mention the movie. We were watching Night School and I got to say that's one of my favorite movies I've ever watched.


After we ate I wanted to go play Fortnite while my family was playing bingo and poker but then they called me, “Jamis, come let’s watch another movie”. So I went and we watched the movie which was called Avengers Endgame on Disney Plus.  I felt lovable because I love them even though some of them left.  They're still in my heart.

Family Buffet 


On a sunny bright day which was Saturday morning the 30th of April. It was my sister's birthday. She was turning 20. In the morning as I woke up she was already gone but she was gone with her friend's China and Bella. She went to do her hair and nails because we were going to a Buffet that was called Happy Days. My family and I were getting ready to go, so we rushed and did our hair and got dressed. As we were waiting she came back and we drove off to the Buffet.


An hour later, We jumped out of the car and went into the Buffet and everybody there jumped out of their seats and yelled ``SURPRISE!´´, my sister was shocked and happy. As we sat down we sang happy birthday. Later, we went to fill our plates with food and last we cut the cake and ate it. We were so lazy to move and depressed cause we were FULL!


Eventually, before we left we started to take pictures and some of the kids were playing around. After that, we left to go home and have a rest for a while. But my sister's friends came since my parents agreed to have a party for her.


Later on, her friends came and my other relatives came as well. When they were partying the music got loud and my Papa kicked them out and they went to one of my sister's friends houses.


The next day, she came back home and we cleaned the deck and outside. Then we carried on with our day as normal.


In conclusion, I wish we could go to Happy Days for my birthday.


Goodbye…

Distance Learning Shared Works 

Week 1

   In my bubble

In my family household, there are six people, two dogs, and four tropical fish. There are my two older brothers Cameron (14yrs old) and Cheydyn (18yrs old tomorrow); my almost-two-year-old sister Bluejay, and my parents Jay (Dad) and Jo (Mum). 

During the lockdown, I have been doing school work that Mum has given me to do from the last term, reading books and stories on my kindle.  We have played board games and card games, watching movies and I sometimes ride my bike around our street. It is easy to do because we live at the end of the cul-de-sac and it is easier to follow the lockdown rules of social distancing and staying in my area. 

My Mum is at home with me and my siblings while my Dad and brother Cheydyn are still working. 

My Dad is the only one who does our shopping and while he is at the supermarket, he does the shopping for my grandma too, that way she stays home and safe.

We watch what we eat during lockdown to make sure our food lasts because Mum and Dad say that some things are hard to get at the supermarket.

By Nivara Pelesitama



What I and my family have been doing throughout the lockdown. 

So what we've been doing is that we always go for a morning walk just to breathe the fresh air and get fit and we would always bring a ball to play soccer. We always bring back timber/stick to make a fire for a lovo/hangi which is a traditional way to cook food so you don't have to cook on the stove. My parents tell my siblings and me that we always have to go for walks every day but we don't go when it's raining. I'm always glad that we didn't go for a walk which meant I was lazy. 


Another activity we do is Roleplaying.  My dad always asks us to roleplay in a story. The first role play we did was the Giving Tree and we had to choose our acts and try to memorize the story. It was tough but we ended doing an okay👌 play. 


Thirdly, is learning the languages, Samoan and Fijian Indian.  This is because I don’t really know that much of my parent's languages. So my mum would teach us Samoan and my dad would teach us Fijian Indian. I'm always getting better and better in both languages every single day. Our parents are our teachers for the language, they would even ask the meanings for in Samoan and Fijian. 


Fourthly, we go in the afternoon and play soccer but I’m not a professional soccer player. It's frustrating for me.  I'd always be raging every day because I don't have the skills and attitude to play soccer and because someone would make fun of me and laugh at me. But I always cool down and ignore them. That's how I can improve every day.

My Bubble

I have 10 family members in my bubble. I have my mum and dad with my brother(12), little sister(2), my 2 aunties, my 2 cousins, and also my Great Grandpa who does his morning prayers every single morning.

My aunty is an essential worker who is a nurse and is currently helping at the Otara center testing for the coronavirus. She is meticulous when she comes home, to make sure we are all safe.

I have had so much fun in my bubble, I baked my Nana a chocolate cake and delivered it with my Dad, I was so happy to see her but we were not allowed to go near her which I was sad.

We have done some cool things at home including drawing outside with outdoor chalk, boxing, and tik tok dancing.
My Aunty also set up some fun games and then we had a fun Easter hunt around the house.

I hope all my classmates are safe and well and hope to see them soon.

Sometimes I draw something like Bart Simpson, a cup and a big fat panda and other stuff. We have also been doing some activities like spelling and math activities so we can become smarter. I was struggling at the start but now I am getting better at doing my additions & times tables which I am happy with. 


It has been fun in my bubble.

Other Activities

Awesome works from Raj Kumar.

From Siaosi:

Studyladder | ShareWithUs

Week 1 was basically just me going on the study ladder to do maths or reading or science since I didn't have a Chromebook around that time.


I would usually do maths then spelling after a few hours. During reading/spelling time the activities I did were corrections of misspelled words and would do games like World Series, adding vs a friend or study ladder AI and spelling bee. For reading I read a story about tips and tricks, about what you need for trips to forests and what to be aware of.

Week 2 Shared Works

On Friday night (17.04.20), My Mum and I cooked dinner together. I got to choose what we were having and I call it OUR MINCE BOLOGNESE.



 

We started with browning the mince and adding finely chopped onion and stirred garlic and ginger into the mince. While my Mum was doing that, I was preparing the carrots. I peeled them, washed and grate the carrots, and then added them to the mince. 

My Mum prepared the other vegetables while I cooked the spaghetti pasta. 

Once the spaghetti pasta was cooked, I drained it and rinsed it ready to serve on the plate.

By the time this was done, our mince bolognese was cooked.


On Saturday morning, I helped my Mum with washing our windows after we did our normal clean up.

I got a bucket of soapy water, washed the windows with a mop, and then used a window squeegee to blade the water off the windows. 

On Sunday morning, My Dad and I worked on a bike together because I am too big for my old bike. Dad adjusted the gears and the seat so that I could fit the bike properly. I helped my Dad with my new bike, I turned the pedals for him so that he could oil my chain and then clean the excess oil off my chain. Daddy showed me how the gears on my bike worked and how to change them. Once we were done, I went for a ride on my bike.

From Siaosi Takai

My chores haven't changed that much except for vacuuming because I have to do it more often. I am doing the vacuuming more often because my parents usually do it when I'm at school. I usually do the vacuuming around the time before dinner or when the dining table is messy. I do this because it's the easiest chore other than laundry.


The Time I Showed Kindness


The time I showed kindness was when Pakofe got angry at someone and when the duty teacher went away after telling him to go play with a friend to calm down I asked him to cheer him up by racing and he ended up beating me by a tiny bit.


10 Things I'm thankful for. 

1.My family.

2. Having a school with Chromebooks.

3. Having enough money to buy food.

4. Not having symptoms of COVID-19.

5. Having work sent from school.

6. All the certificates I got.

7.For not being sent to the hospital during the pandemic

8.For not being homeless

9.For the opportunity to study from home

10 Having hard-working siblings.

 Picnic

Food: burgers bananas, sausages, bacon, eggs, and toast

1230pm 

If I will meet an alien, the lessons I will teach will be way harder than I would probably think of.

1. You have to try and teach him/her [if aliens have genders] how to wash his hands, how to play sports, and other stuff that the average human does. How would I teach him though? Is there an alien translator out there? Then again you never know, aliens might do the same stuff as humans.

Scaredy book

By:deven selet

and

Illustrator: kara kane

So there was a girl in a library with peaceful noise. It was warm and comfy safe and she was looking at girls skipping out the door. Then they had wonderful adventures and became friends. The little girl and her friends wanted to go have fun instead of reading peacefully and having quiet time so they did it but the live Book wanted to go so he moved a couple of times and then he thought about coming close. But the book had a brain that reminded himself that the others came back creased. So then when they came back one of the other little girls' friends never returned on the adventure. The book wanted to go on the trip so it could sit on the chair and get sunlight on its pages but he was playing with the ball in a warm cozy and comfy library. And the library was Emma's favorite place to be because she likes to read books and also likes adventures and she liked rescuing people and making them feel better like a giant and that was her lifetime that's what she does.
