The Task - Write a recount about something you did in the holidays

                                Rock climbing

It was a sizzling, hot summer day when we went  rock climbing. We walked in and saw a buzz of active children, climbing up and down  the rich walls. On the other side I saw adults climbing up and down dull walls. We signed in with our names and got suited up.  ‘What a spacious place,’ I thought and started climbing. I barely heard the pop music because of the strident air conditioners. My first wall was a Yellow and Blue wavy construction and super kooky.  They were all very challenging, especially this dinosaur bone one but I climbed it anyway. At the end my hands felt weird and I couldn’t even do a full fist without my hands hurting .I am super proud of my accomplishment!!!

The task-To write a setting description about a place we went to in the holidays

Whanganui Landmark

Across from the harsh, clumpy grass was a tremendously big lake.  A towering landmark, pencils, made of metal and solidified wood stood tall and proud on a patch of the grass.  How did they build these gigantic structures and why were they here? Lots of cars whooshed by. Across the street dogs were getting groomed and washed.  Different aromas such as: petrol, ice-cream, fast food and big gigantic flowers could be smelt nearby. Waves crashed against the shore, birds sang sweet songs and kids shouted and screamed on the playground.  The sound of the wind could barely be heard as it was drowned out by the noise of the boisterous children. The bothersome noise of cicadas was continuous. The trees were rustling and leaves occasionally floated to the ground.  What a lively place.

My book review

Friendship S.O.S
Author: Meredith Costain       Illustrator: Danielle Mc Donald


The characters are Ella, Zoe, Nanna Kate and Sunny. I liked Ella the best because of her fashionable outfits and her enthusiasm. These characters show being desperate, doing their best in everything. Her new friend is Sunny who is also very good in fashion and she likes similar things that Ella liked.

PLOT: Nanna Kate wins a trip on a luxury cruise and she invites her friend Rina. Ella is also invited and she invites Zoe, But they eat too much so the next day Zoe ends up in the hospital and she couldn't come out until the trip ends, so Ella has to do everything by herself. One day there was a scavenger hunt and Ella is the captain and in the end, Ella's team wins.


 My opinion; I liked the book Friendship S.O.S because Ella tried to do everything without her best friend Zoe. I was getting bored with her old friend. My favourite part was the scavenger hunt. I liked this part because it was hilarious to see Ella giving lots of different hand signals to indicate if the other team was coming close. The funniest bit was when she bumped into the other team's captain. In this book, I learnt to not give up and keep on trying. 

Recommendation: Firstly I'd recommend the book for 8-10-year-olds as it's easy to read, funny, and heartbreaking. I'd rate this book four out of five . I hope you read this book and enjoy it as much as I did.
