The Worst Accident Ever

The  Worst Accident Ever

On a very lovely day my friend and I decided to go skateboarding so when we got to the skate park we did lots of cool tricks. Then my friend tried to do a dangerous skateboard trick so he went to the highest ramp and he skated of the ramp and he did a back flip. Then all of a sudden he didn't go all the way around and when he touched the ground he landed on his head.

Then I went to him and he was bleeding from his head so I called the ambulance and what I thought is that it was the  worst accident ever. So when the ambulance got to the skate park they came out and they got him up and took him into the ambulance.

When my friend was at the hospital the doctors said that he’s gonna have surgery .Then the doctors called his parents that he was in the hospital.The parents were worried about their son.When my friend had finished his surgery then he had to stay back in the hospital until 3 weeks.

My friend felt worried because of what had happened and it was called the Worst Accident Ever.

Junior Warriors

On Thursday room 9 and part of room 10 went up to the play field and there were 5 teams.One group was named Junior Warriors,Warriors,Rabbitohs,Broncos and Bulldogs.

First it was Broncos vs Bulldogs and I was in Broncos and the points were 1 all but the ref said that the Broncos won because we got the first try and it was a close game.

Then the next battle was Rabbitohs vs Warriors and the Warriors had 5 and the Rabbitohs had 3 and it was a tough game because both teams had strong people but there were fast people in both teams.

Meanwhile it was the semi finals and it was Broncos vs the Bulldogs and the point was 3 to 1. Broncos had 1 and Bulldogs had 3.Bulldogs were hard and they scored heaps of tries and I played in the Broncos.

Finally it was the finals and it was going to be a good game because both teams were strong teams. Then they played Junior Warriors vs the Bulldogs but the team that won was Junior Warriors 5 to 0 so the Junior Warriors are the champions.

My Funny Story about animals in the story

My Funny Story

Once upon a time there lived some jumping elephants,they lived in the jungle that seriously smelt.All of the living animals, blew balloons especially the baboons.

A year later a girl named Alyson was walking through the jungle and she saw an elephant jumping,twirling and doing the Tango dance.

Then there was an alligator named Poodle who was dancing to the Whipa Nae Nae song.  

There was an animal named Banjo and He was saying “Hahaha” you can’t dance, i’m more better then you.Then poodle said ohhh do you want to have a competition who is better at dancing and Banjo said alright let’s go.

When Banjo was walking with poodle he tripped over a yellow ball, he picked it up and it was a lemon.

Poodle and Banjo went to the dance floor.

Later on Poodle was tired but Banjo wasn’t and Banjo was saying HAHA i’m the best at dancing and Poodle said I don’t mind because we still have time to have a break.

Finally Poodle and Banjo became friends again.

My Mothers Cloak

As an infant

I felt guarded

Cloaked

in my mothers cloak

It must have looked funny

Big black eyes

Emerging from its folds

As if that was all there was

to me

I remember

Its rare threads

Amazing and booish

Their lightness

repudiate their clout

Its tivaevae-like Switchs

of slim fabric

An active shield

against sour winters

The colours loud

Yelling for mind

and space

My mother always wore

that Cloak with delight

Undaunted

by its Brightness effect

outlining her out

in a Papaa circle

But combining  beautifully

at every Market

I remember too

With childlike disdain

Discarding my mothers Cloak

Not for me

The no cool designs

extravagant colouring

and awkward fit

She wears it still

Her brooch of pride

sparkling and bright

And not long ago

I tried it on

after many years

Although its not really me

Its because of her

I can sew

on my own
