Review

The Tooth Fairy is a movie directed by Michel Lembeck, written by Lowell Ganz and Babaloo Mandell. 

Derek Thompson is a hard working ice hockey player who tries to barge into his opponents and knock out a tooth or two of theirs. Derek was going to a daycare to pick up his girlfriends child when on the was home he discouraged her dream by explaining about the tooth fairy, and how when he got older he stopped believing cause the tooth fairy was not real. In order of Derek telling her that false information he was sentenced to one week as being a real and proper tooth fairy, along with a tutu, wings and a magic wand. Every once and a while when a child near by looses their tooth, he will transform into the tooth fairy with a note in his pocket saying the address and name. Walking softly through strangers homes into the child's room, collecting their tooth and leaving he makes a pretty good tooth fairy. 

I recommend this movie for children ages 6-12, my rating would be 4 and a half stars out of 5. I like this movie because it shows not to discourage others beliefs in anything. There is also a second movie of this with different characters which is just as good.

Tauranga Girls Orentation

Today at nine am the year eight girls got onto a bus and went to Tauranga Girls College to learn about the school for next year when we move into year 9. The highlight for me was walking around the school and learning where everything is so we dont get lost. Mrs Glaser-Brown and Mrs Keightley are our deans which means they look after us for the 5 years that we are there.

Five Sences



Hear: I hear cars beeping their horns as annoying as an ongoing alarm clock as they wait impatiently to get where they want to go. 

Smell: The smell of smoke whooshes through my car window through my nose and into my body. 

See: As I drove down the high way, I could see smoke rising from tall buildings planted on land which used to be a big green forest. 

Taste: I open and shut my mouth cigarette smoke in my mouth from the cars around me a swell as the smoke from the chimneys ahead.

Feel: I feel

As peaceful as students taking a test that you are not aloud to talk in.
As lucky as a human being that wins 1 million dollars.
As hot as a burning oven at the highest temperature.

Waimarino Shape Poem

Waimarino,
Hiring Wetsuits,
Freezing and Raining,
Listening to vital instructions,
Going kayaking in the river, 
Plunging into the relaxing steaming spa,
Gulping down food for energy,

12 Hour Relay

People arriving at school on a cold frosty morning, painting them selves with their house colour, putting hair spray on their head, people writing "Go Rimu" or whatever house they are in on their legs with vivid. People drinking lots of water and powerade getting ready for the big 12 hour relay was finally here.
