Zoos are dangerous!
I think Zoos are dangerous. I think Zoos are dangerous because the
animals can try and attack you. For example, when I went to the zoo
I went to see the baboons, a zookeeper told me not to show my teeth
at them, so I showed me teeth at them, and the baboon tried to attack
me. But the best part, is that I survived.

1. I think he wouldn't share.
2. Because when he's older, he wouldn't want to die trying
to save the people that's already dying when there
going to die anyway.
So Salva and the others doesn't have to worry about the Rebels.
1. Because when Uncle was still alive he would be by Salva's side.
2. He would keep up with the group.
1. Because he remember's what his uncle said "the village got
burned down there wasn't much people that survived" and knew.
2. His childhood helped him.

A long walk to water - Section 2

2. Digging for water
3. Have to be aware of the lions & The Rebels

The Accident
I was only 6 when it all happened.
So let me start off my life's story. As most people's life was, or is, mine was ordinary. I had lovely parents,
i had a cute dog and a big brother, they were the best family a little sister could ever ask for. But you see I
mostly used the word HAD so all of this, i use to have.

mostly used the word HAD so all of this, i use to have.
A few days before my 6th birthday my mum told me, “On your birthday, me, your dad,
your brother, charlie, and you will be going to a very special place.'' (charlie is the dog) So when my
birthday came up I was so excited for the special place my mum was talking about, I wore a white dress
and had the doll my mum and dad gave me. When we were ready to go I hop in my seat and my brother
was beside me. My brother was only 7 years older than me, he would always be by my side when my
parents weren't around. He was an overprotective brother, yes, but he was my brother and he was the best.
When we got to the special place, i was speechless, it was like paradise. There were beautiful green trees,
there were flowers everywhere. There was also a little mini work space for my dad. My dad was like
a scientist, well i didn’t know what he was (he was a HUMAN), he just mixed scientist thingy together.
He didn’t want to miss my birthday so he got people to put a little, mini, science ... house next to where
we were sitting ;-; .

I was having a great time, eating, playing, climbing the tree and chasing my dog but my dad was
in that house thing again. I wanted to ask him something, so I knocked on the door and he didn’t reply,
then I went in. So when I went in I saw a lot of science things but i couldn’t see my dad. I got bored
waiting for him so I was nosy and grabbed one of the cups that had purple liquid in it. When I was
looking at it i heard a banging noise like something dropped on the floor. I jumped with fright and the
purple liquid tipped on me, some of it got in my mouth but I didn’t notice until I tasted it. When I finally
tasted it I was trying to spit it out but it already went down my throat. I never knew what it would do to
me so I didn’t think it would matter. A few minutes later the purple liquid that was on me, was gone.
I didn’t clean it off me, or anything, it was like my skin soaked it up, or something.

While I was looking at my clothes amazed and shocked, my dad walked in the room with boxes in his
hands, covering his face. When I saw him walking through, I quickly hid behind one of the benches.
When he put down the boxes he found the bottle, empty, with some of the purple liquid on the ground.

He picked up the bottle, putting his hand on his head, and said “How is it gone?
How did it get on the floor?”. He seemed worried for a second. When he exited the room

I am not yet finished.
I’ll try to finish it later.
But I did get to finish some of it.

My Final Narrative
This right here is my final narrative
i hope you enjoy it. (cause i did >-<).
Ramari
The end of Donald Trump
Everyone apparently loves Donald Trump, but that's what he thinks. He's a TERRIBLE person but he doesn’t know that.
This is why people don’t like him:
1. Because he's a terrible man
2. Because he is trying to build a wall between
Mexico and America
3. And because he’s orange
So one day Donald Trump FINALLY figured out that not many people liked him, so he invited three random people who didn’t like him so he could show them he’s not a bad person. The people were a teacher, a child that got taken from school and a famous basketball player.
Donald Trump took them on a plane ride, once they were in the air, there was silence in the plane. 10,000 feet in the air somehow the plane started to go down, like there was something wrong with the engine (The captain didn’t like his job and he was old soooo he knew this was going to happen).
There were only 3 parachutes and the kids school bag. Donald Trump took a parachute and said “I am the most lovable and wise president, and my people need me” he jumped out of the plane and then the famous basketball player grabbed a parachute and said “I am a famous basketball player and my fans would be devastated if I died ” and then he jumped out of the plane.
There was just one more parachute left. The teacher grabbed the parachute and gave it to the child and said “ I have lived a long and happy life and you have years to live”. The child pushed the parachute away from him and grabbed his school bag and said “It’s fine you will live and so will i” the teacher was confused, and the child went on and said “ Donald Trump took my school bag instead of the parachute”
When they go to the ground Donald Trump looked like a mashed potato but red and worst.
The End
(What a happy ending, don’t you think)

The Rocket Challenge-2019 MNL
On the 20th of June we were testing our rockets and at the same time I guess we were doing a challenge as well.
We were all in small groups, and when we had our turn, it was really fun (And I was inpatient). Some of our parachute failed, one of them worked (What a surprise), some of our rockets went barely that far, and obviously there was ONE rocket that went far.
And everyone's rocket was a success (in their own way). For my group's rocket, we are going to modify it for our final launch by making the fins smaller and removing our parachute.

The Run Away
Once there was a woman named Sofia who found out that she was pregnant. The father (named Tom) was so excited that he would see his child, but sadly he couldn’t. He had to go overseas to find a better island, a better place for his wife, his child and his village to live. So one day he left with his wife and child left on the island. 1 year passed by and the child (named Marilyn) was born and yet the father hasn’t return, Sofia was worried sick when he had not return, but she would not let that get to her. She had to stay positive for her child.
When Marilyn was 3 years old she already learnt how to walk and to talk. One day Marilyn and her mother was outside playing, then the one of the horn’s went. The horn meant there is something or someone coming, but if it’s someone they knew then that’s fine but it wasn’t. They had guns and other weapons, so everyone in the village had to evacuate but mostly Sofia and Marilyn. So Sofia grabbed Marilyn and ran off to keep her safe and two of the helpers were right behind her.
They all went on a boat to get passed the river that was just ahead but right behind them were the intruders. They don’t know if they could get passed the river in time, who knows if they could, without getting hurt. One of the men shot a bullet, would it miss them?
I'm not finished it yet.

Capital E Festival of the Arts
Wolf Gang
Wolf Gang is this type of opera group.
But the weird thing was, was that the
ballerina girl was lifting up the guy and
it was just so weird.
But the important thing
is that it was all about the movement
and the music. The music was a type
of dream that the girl was having but it
wasn't and it like changed the whole thing
the man would come out of a fridge and
just balance on items and then do gymnastics
and the girl would do ballerina stuff.
But is there anymore fantastic thing
that they would improve?
Troll
Troll was a horror mixed with comedy and it was
LOUD. It was also about depression and fear.
because she wouldn't tell anyone the truth, not even
her sister or her parent's. She was scared and she
thought that know one would believe her, that she heard
strange noise that no one would understand, but only
her sister but she never knew, only if she would ask.
But now it's continuing with her grandson.
And what was happening with him?
