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.
