Maximum ride the angel experiment by James Patterson!!


I’ve just been assigned a novel to read! First time ever! I am completely hooked and we have  only just begun this study. James Patterson is the author of many series maybe just looking at the title page hooks you in, but NO you should never judge a book by it’s cover. The prologue is such a good bit to read which get you in progress with the story, you will never know how good the book is until you read it. Beginning this book we read on until the end of chapter 3. The only bits of the story I remember is Max running away from all of the blood sucking animals and the erasers (killers) and here’s me getting worried. Then Max comes to a cliff and takes a gulp and thinks does she wanna be eaten by animals, killed by erasers,or would she rather jump.........So she jumps and spreads her arms nek minnit she’s flying.That’s about it, till furthermore keep in touch to hear more about it.

Painting ART ALIVE!!!

This is my piece of art that I made for our topic this term, ART ALIVE. This painting is based on the artistic style of Oscar Claude Monet. One of his techniques was to blend colours across his paintings, beginning with the lightest and ending with the darkest.
I selected one colour and added a bit of white to make my first shade, then for my second shade I added more colour to the white which gave me a slightly darker tint.
The final hue that I used for blending was the original colour of the paint.
The thing that I really enjoyed about creating my piece of art, was getting dirty with paint.
I enjoyed doing this project and have since become a fan of  Oscar Claude Monet’s art.

LAST DAY OF SCHOOL!!!

As most of you know Wednesday is the last day of school for Pt England, most of us are happy because we get 2 weeks of holiday. I know it doesn't sound like a lot but for us it is, because every single weekday we have school but every single weekend we have a break so that's 5 days of school every week until well you know.


As weird as this sound I really don't want to finish school because I won't be able to see all me friend until after 2 week :-(.


I feel like staying at this school forever and I never want to leave but unfortunately I have to move on If I had 1 wish I'd wish nobody would ever grow up.
