She was getting mad as soon they went outside to find their perfect spot.

The 1st little pig decided to built his out out of little pieces of straws on a flat mountain side. “This will be a nice spot”,mumbled the 1st little pig. So then he had finished building his house and went inside. Just then crawling around in the bushes came out a big bad wolf. The big bad wolf went towards the 1st little pigs house and yelled, “Let me in, Let me in! The little pig replied not by the hair of my chinny chin chin.

“Then I will puff, then I will huff, then I will blow your house down”, grumbled the big bad wolf as the 1st little pigs house was blown down. The little pig ran to the 2nd little pigs house and went inside. The 2nd little pigs house was made out of wood. “Nothing could break my house down”, whispered the 2nd little pig. Then the big bad wolf came running back and mumbled, “Let me in,Let me in! But the 2nd little pig replied, “Not by the hair of my chinny chin chin.

“Then I will puff, then I will huff, then I will blow your house down”, the wolf anxiously yelled. Then the 2nd little pigs house was blown down. So off they went running into the 3rd little pigs house. The 3rd little pigs house was made out of strong nether bricks. Out came the big bad wolf running towards the 2nd little pigs house saying, “Let me in, Let me in! But the 3rd little pig replied, “Not by the hair of my chinny chin chin.”

“Then I will puff, then I will huff, then I will blow your house down”, the big bad wolf mumbled as he was trying to blow the 3rd little pigs house down. He could not brake it. It was too strong. But the big bad wolf yelled again, “Then I will puff, then I will whuff, then I will blow your house down”, but still did not blow down.

The three little pigs were so happy that they went sitting next to their fireplace and began to relax. Then the big bad wolf climbed up to the roof and went down in the chimney squishing himself in. He could smell fire underneath him. “Oh No!, screamed the wolf. He got burned so he ran away out through the door and running in serious pain, and the three little pigs LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER.

The Ugly Duckling

One morning in new zealand 2013, 8:30 am , up in Mt. wellington there was a massive house. A mansion with farm animals. In a paddock, there was a duck with a pretty nest sitting on 6 pretty eggs. But one was larger than the others. It was grey!

“Why was it grey?” Asked father duck standing there like a statue. “When I lived next to Omaru creek, I went fishing and diving for some food for the little ducklings. But, one of the eggs slipped into the contaminated water. The catfish almost ate it, but I swooped in just in time.” Mother duck said.

By the next beautiful morning, the ducklings were still sitting on her eggs. The eggs were not hatching properly, so mother duck cracked the eggs a little to help the little ducklings be free. Mother duck was so overjoyed, but then she was worried, as the largest egg haven't hatched yet.

She waited, and waited, until she heard a little crack underneath her. But it was cracking slowly. She was becoming impatient. “If this egg does not hatch soon, I will leave it alone in Omaru Creek, while I teach the other ducklings to swim and fly” Mother duck thought anxiously.  

Soon after, another crack after another, the 6th duck came out from its shell, it was a large ugly duckling. The little duckling was grey, and its beak was as small as a miniature ice cream cone. His hair was bluffed up with wet feathers, and it was so fat.

As soon as the duckling came out, mother duck went out fishing. “Its ugly!”, yelled father duck. When mother duck saw the ugly duckling, she said “I should have let him die. ”, Mother duck whispered. “What kind of bird am I? I look different.” The ugly duckling politely asked.

“You are the ugliest duckling ever! You are a contaminated bird!” replied the mother duck in rage quit mode. The ugly duckling was not happy. Mother duck fed the other ducklings, except for the poor, ugly, duckling. All of his brothers teased him.

So he hopped out of the nest, and tried to find out where he came from, and what bird he is. Walking around in sadness, the little duckling saw some french geese right at the bottom of the hill, in another paddock swimming, and laughing happily. The little ugly duckling went up to them. “What kind of bird I am?” He asked cutely. But as soon he asked them, they replied: “You are the ugliest duckling ever, and you are not a bird. Get away.”
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
END OF PART 1-Part 2
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The ugly duckling was walking around feeling sad. He couldn’t fly, or swim. The ugly poor duckling saw some birds with scaly feathers. Then an assassin came out of his truck, with a sniper gun. He was shooting the birds. The birds flew away, but just then the assassin shot them down. “Luckily I can’t fly.” Mumbled the duckling, running away.

After a while, the duckling soon spotted a massive pond with a lot of little lily pads. “Oh no, the little duckling yelled sacredly. I can’t swim.” The duckling was so scared.

Then the little duckling had an amazing idea! He whispered to himself saying “I could jump on the lily pads one by one to get to the other side! I’m so smart!” he exclaimed.

He started walking away, to find some other ducks that will help him. Finally he saw some ducks with long beaks and short tails. So then he went on his way to them and began to asked them the same question he’d wanted to know about. He asked “What kind of bird am I? Then they gave him exactly the same answer he was given. “You are the ugliest duckling ever! You are a contaminated bird!”

So he kept walking along the footpath and trying to find somebody. As he was walking he kicked pebbles on the way and curled his feathers so he could be warm. Just then a large bird flew past him. “What was that?, he mumbled as the bird crashed landed on a piece of branch. He went up to it and, the large bird suddenly yelled “BOO!” The little poor duckling screamed “Ahhh!” and went away screaming in tears. The large bird walked back to the duckling and quietly said to him, “Sorry, my bad. Are you alright.” The the duckling replied, “Yes, but you scared me a little bit. Wait! What type of bird am I?” The big bird took a good look at the duckling. “You look kind of like MY children.”

“My family’s children are always born in Omaru Creek.” The big bird carried on. “One of my eggs went missing. Maybe it was your egg.” The duckling thought for a while. “Yeah, maybe I am!” He shouted. “That means you’re my dad!” The little duckling hugged his dad with tears of joy trickling down.

Now, the duckling knows that he isn’t contaminated. He’s one of the rarest birds on earth, AND THEY LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER!

My Weekend

My Weekend


On saturday afternoon, I went to play soccer with my cousins. I woke up in the morning and saw my cousins waiting for me in the car. Then I grabbed my soccer ball and my things to the soccer game. Just then we went sliding on the field and found ourselves muddy. We were playing our own soccer game.


After a while I slipped and slided while dribbling after the ball and kicked it into the goal. I shouted out YAY!. I was really excited. I scored a goal for my team and went to have a rest. Luckily my cousin brought some food from home. I suddenly grabbed an ice cream. It was a really hot day.


Its half time for both teams as I gave some water to my cousins. The teams are having a break and getting ready to play. I passed out some food for the teams and then went back to the field and just played around. I was training for the next round.


Half time is over and now we are back in the field getting excited. Just then we started the game off. I kicked the ball out through the field and then my teammates chased it. Simon has the ball and then he kicked it to the goal and one of the players on the other team hand balled it.

By now it is 5 to 0 scores of the day and I placed the ball where it got hand balled and kicked it to the goal. “FULL TIME”, i shouted off as we scored 8 points. After the game my dad took us to carls junior and ate some delicious burgers,chips and milk shakes. I got oreo milk shake.

She thinked about it until the seventh egg hatched and out came a grey duckling. It’s a “GREY DUCKLING” Mother Duck yelled. It was a strange looking duckling when she saw him. He came out of his shell and suddenly felt really lonely. His feathers was all wet. His brothers mocked him and his mother kicked him out. The ugly duckling prepared lunch for his brother but not him he ran away and tried to find out what kind of bird he is.

As he was walking down the lake he saw a bunch of goose hanging around in a pond. He asked them “what kind of bird I am”, but the gooses gave an answer. The same answer as his family did. “You are just a Grey duckling that fell from the sky” a goose said. He continued on walking kicking rocks on his way. He suddenly saw some Greyish bird that looked the same as him.

He walked up to them and then he asked them “what bird am I”, the grey Duck replied “you are one of us”. So he stayed there and found his home his new brothers also love and they LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER.

My Holiday


Intro: Hi I'm going to write about my holiday, excited to go on a trip. This is my holiday story and I will tell you the different things I've been threw. In my holiday I went to play some mini pool table with my dad. I was really excited and happy. I woke up in the morning at 8:30 am and jumping up and down feeling so happy. Then I realized it was time to go. “Come on”, yelled my dad as I hopped in the car and driving off to the cafe.

                                            The Car Ride
After a while it was time to go riding off to the cafe it got really boring. It was 5 hours until we got there. I was exhausted and bored. Then we caught up with some car washers on the street washing every window on the car and then the green light on the traffic light turned green. off we went driving away to the cafe.. At last we arrived at the cafe running inside trying to get a pool table spot.

                                                                   The Game Begins

Then I spotted one that had no players on.As soon we were there we saw a lot of players playing around with the pool table balls. Grabbing the cue I placed the eight balls on the ends and put it on the triangular shaped to place it in. My dad started the game and then he had nothing in so I shot anywhere and got the 6th ball in the hole. THE GAME CONTINUED WITH MY DAD WINNING.
