Skiing

Skiing
I peered out my window at the snowy mountain as we approach it.  Sweat cascaded down my face as I climbed out of the bus.  It was like going to the beach on a hot day but worse.  We had thermal clothes underneath normal clothes, a waterproof jacket over the top of a normal jacket, a beanie, sunglasses, scarf and waterproof gloves.  We trudged through the snow waiting for the others to come.  We had snowball fights and climbed little snow hills as we waited.  When we had climbed as far as we could we slid back down and posed for the camera.  By then the others had arrived and we were nearly ready to ski.

Everyone had found themselves a buddy to go down the lift with.  So two by two we all went down the first ski lift.  When we got down there we found ourselves a table to sit at.  After that Miss Baker sent us in the ski shop 10 at a time to get our skis and ski boots.  For some people the ski boots were easy to put on but for the rest it was a bit hard.  The ski boots were really tight and uncomfortable.  They were really hard to walk in because you had to walk on your heel first and then your toe.  But after a while you get used to it.  To put your skis on you had to put your toe in first and then push your heel down to click it into place so your skis would not fall off.   

It took me a long time to learn how to ski because I didn’t know how to stop properly and I kept falling.  I found it really hard to stop at first but then i started to get the hang of it with Miss Baker’s help.  To stop all you needed to do was make a pizza shape.  When i was confident enough I was allowed to ski down to the bottom of Happy Valley.  At the bottom I had to wait in line with my skis and poles.  When I had reached the front of the line I had to wait for the scanner to scan my card.  Then I had to quickly get onto the ski lift so it could take me to the top again.  Then I had to ski down again and again and so on…………………………..

Pop Art



Room 5 experimented with the chrome books to produce some "silly" art.  We hope you find this funny.

Partly Cloudy

  Partly Cloudy
Wispy clouds hover through the rose sky. Stalks soar in the sky landing on pink fluffy clouds. Magically the cloud zaps a pile of  clouds turning it into an animal figure. The cloud then wraps it into a plain white sheet and carefully hands it over to the stalk. The stalk glides through the sky carrying the plain white sheet to a dog kennel. while down below a dark grey cloud sadly peeks above to see pink rosy clouds making impressive figures. A bird landed on the dark grey cloud. The nearly featherless bird stood there wings wide open waiting for another delivery. The cloud got a pile and magically zaps it. A baby crocodile appears snapping and munching the cloud’s finger. The cloud handed the bird the sharp crocodile cautiously. The stalk reluctantly gripped the sheet by the tip and carefully hovered all over the place with the baby croc.The stalk flew back more featherless than before. The dark grey cloud moulded another pile and zapped a baby ram. The ram smashed into the stalk leaving the bird a painful gutt feeling. The cloud tied the ram into another plain sheet and and flew off into the distance. A bald patch sat upon the bird’s head. The

The stalk birds happily flying out of the sky to house and to a kennel, to doors delivering of people's babies and animals babies. The babies are made from cute happy chubby clouds from the sky  that are made of love, smiles and happiness  and with the pinkness of a rose. There was only one cloud that had the sadness of lightning and the darkness of pitch black  but he still had a little smile on his face, he would make dangerous animals like sharks and porcupines.

Home Sweet Home

HOME SWEET HOME

Dim and dark streets and tall abandoned houses that form shadows around the place. Suddenly there's a flash the house falls  and moves and makes its way to the highway and gets in the countryside as  another house notices it so they make their way together to there destination.

Suddenly one of them broke his walking stick  so the other one kindly went and broke another houses walking stick and went back to his friend they make their way to Antarctica and there they see a campervan gliding across the ice one goes and plays with the campervan but the other one watches them and makes his way to his new destination by himself with his  dog kennel he barks he sniffs and he digs holes where ever he wants. they see a house and make their way inside  then the other house came back but he didn't make it back in time his friend had died.

The bright soft clouds wander in the sky. One dark figure stands out in the sunset a lonely cloud makes weirder things than usual. Zap! He zaps clouds to make babies. He turns dogs to crocodiles and cats to sharks. One stalk turns up to take his mistakes to a new owner over and over again hoping the day would be better.


The Stalk has had enough he flies away to another cloud knowing it would be more safe. The dark cloud is crying rain on the land below. He is a waterfall dropping water faster than a V8 racecar. The stalk comes back giving him one more chance. Zap! Bam! He creates a eel but the stalk still stays.

The cloud keeps on trying but can’t do it.  Luckily the stalk keeps on pushing him to get it right.
