Harrison and Ajay's Alfonzo Bonzo Book

In our class we have been reading about Afronzo Bonzo by Andrew Davies. Here is most of the story.

In the morning Billy heard a knock at the door he went to the door and it was a italian exchange student exchange ment like swaps.

He said do you what to swap my bag for your bag 

Billy didn’t know what to say and just said yes he saw Alfonzo Bonzo’s bag and it looked pretty cool and he said you really want to swap that cool bag for my ripped and grotty school bag and Alfonzo Bonzo said yes. I do lenzys of keepzes and Billy said lenzes then the swaped the bags and said seya tomorrow  to Alfonzo. Then as soon as Alfonzo Bonzo left he remembered that there was his school project was in the bag and it was due today.

When Billy got to school people said why you got a girl bag and he felt embarrassed and the school bully tried to snatch the bag but then the whole world went into slow motion then Billy senced that it wasn’t a normal bag. When he got in to class he hid at the back of the room hoping that the teacher wouldn’t see him but then his plan failed and the teacher asked Billy Can you come up and share your project to the class he went up as he was told and went to open Alfonzo Bonzo’s bag and it didn’t open he thought that could be his excuse for not doing the project. But the teacher said give it here and she opened it and then gave it to Billy,Billy stood up in front of the class and said my project is about mice. Then he suddenly heard a ticking sound coming from the bag. After it stopped he looked into his bag and saw a thick pile of paper he takes it out and the first page says mouse project. Then the teacher says “hand it over” so he does and the teacher was very impressed.....

skunks are not pests!!!

skunks are not pests!!!

skunks are known for teir revolting stink! and as you know they are also a pest. But! if you ever had the chance would have a pet skunk? or would you rather let it die from .....maybe a hunter killing it! Yes maybe they stink but skunks have rights too, besides the only reason the let it rip is because they  sense danger, and most of the time its us humans who make them feel that way! so there! skunks are not pests!!!

CLEAN WATER SCIENCE !!!!!!!!!

Last week Kate, Zara and I did a clean water  science kit.  I had won the science kit from a competion in the bordome buster magazine.

First,  we got out all the things  we needed such as........

- 4 filter sections

- Round filter base

- 3 bags of gravel, sand and active carbon

After that, kate read the instructions, we did what she said but kate had read the instrutions grong we had to start over  and then she did the same thing agan

 Finally, we showed the class but we did not know that it will take a long time to go through but now the water is clean because we have put the water through about 5 times.

We had a fun time doing the clean water science!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

milk bottle making

For our optional homework this week we had to make something cool out of a milk bottle and this is my one that I made. I made it from a milk bottle,wooden sticks,tape and some soft blanket. It took me about two hours to make it and then I tried it out in the bath and it works really well. I made it so it can sink down a bit a stop it going side ways but so it wouldn't cap-size I made a floater next to it. Now look what you could make of a milk bottle.

That is the same stuff that boats are made from.

Griffin and Jamie's paintball adventure

On sunday 27 of may Jamie, James, Ryan, Richard and Griffin went to Armageoden paintball. We went there for the day, it was for Jamie and James joint birthday.  For the starting teams it was Griffin Richard and Jordan with some others against Jamie James and Rhyn with some others. The first time you get shot it hurts really bad, but then you get used to it. James' mum made a cake. It had little cup cakes around it with splats that look like paintballs. There was a cake in the middle and there was a target with candles in them like arrows. We all got big bruises and marks. We used the MP5K! semi automatic which is a one shot burst/bruise. We played speed ball at the end of the day. You can see the speedball course in the background of the picture.
