Dear Sir/Madam,
I’m writing this letter to the council to complain about an illegal pig construction on private property with non lasting materials. This means the Three little Pigs could be in danger of fires and midnight collapses.
Luckily I have a house close to me (so I can eat them) so I can feed them and treat them well. This area has a big backyard so the pigs can enjoy their stay, with food freshly made for them.
I need you to move the pigs somewhere suitable like the house next to me that is licensed.
Yours sincerely,
Big Bad Wolf

A Blast From The Past by Mei Ethan
Have you ever thought of making something that’s been around for millions of years?
In week 9 of Term 3 Mrs Manickum asked Room 5 to make wind chimes. Wind chimes have been around ever since the ancient Chinese invented them millions of years ago. After being split into groups we had to research about the wind chimes’ history. At the end of the research we had to present the information to the class. We were put into new groups to make the wind chimes. I was with Angelina, Phontain, Kryzjon and Agnes. I was astonished at how challenging it was to make a simple wind chime, but we came up with a simple design. Using a wooden hanger with drilled holes we threaded in the fishing line with brass tubes tied to it. For the clapper we used a brass plate. After securing the brass tubes the final product was sold on Mission Day. I felt happy making the wind chime so the person who bought it could have fun and hear it’s wonderful music.

SPORTS MAYHEM
“Look at them running at high speed!” I can imagine a collision or worse full on mayhem!!!
On a sunny Friday, after morning tea I thought it was going to be a typical day but then I remembered there was futsal. I felt irritated because I might not do well. But after arriving at the bottom court, I couldn’t wait to play against another team. The first match was Futsal Masters versus Burnout. In the back of my mind I was asking “Who’s going to win?” Kryzjon was the goalie, he was the last line of defence and I was the second last line of defence.
When the ball moved I knew the game had started. The match was fierce and unpredictable. The score was 2 – 1 to Futsal Masters (my team). After the session I was overwhelmed and exhausted from all that running.

WELCOMING THE WORLD
Most of the world stood still for one event. What could it be?
A sport? A race?
It was Friday, 9 September. My family was anxiously waiting for the start of Rugby World Cup 2011. We were eating dinner when I heard the TV One reporter saying “It’s going to be a spectacular opening ceremony.” I rushed to see if it was starting.
Then I saw a stadium filled with excited and anxious people. When the stadium lights were fading away there was a feeling of intensity. I could see flashes of the cameras and heard cheers echoing in the stadium. Then an oval shape in the middle of the rugby field was brightly lit up. A lady started to sing a Maori song and started to walk on top of the oval shaped screen. But what type was it? I distinctly remembered that I had seen it before. Then it struck me that it was a projector screen! I heard the TV One reporter say, “This is the biggest laser show ever brought to New Zealand.” As the ceremony continued the cheers of the crowd escalated. I was baffled about how many people had come to watch the start of the fabulous Rugby World Cup 2011. As we got to the end of the ceremony I was thinking “How are they going to end it?” because I knew that the mayor, Lenn Brown had officially opened the tournament. Then what happened next blew me AWAY. It was a fireworks extravaganza!
Watching the Rugby World Cup from home was different from watching it in the stadium but the feeling of excitement was still the same.

Don't Fight The Waves!
Ever imagined that you were trapped in a situation with a BIG wave? Well a lifeguard named Sean was teaching us how to swim under the wave not through it. I was not in the pool because I was sick so had to stay out, but I saw my classmates doing a warm up. They had to have races with the boogie board. I heard them screaming and shouting "YEAH!" After the warm up, Sean chose four people to hold small boards to make big waves to show it is harder to swim through them than going under. I could see everyone swimming through the waves as fast as they could. After that it was time to swim under the waves. Sean said, "It is very wavy on top of the water but very still underneath." I could see Room 5 dolphin diving under the waves, popping up on the other side of the pool. I was happy to see Room 5 having fun, but sad also because I was not in the pool.
