Show not Tell Setting

Birds tweeting outside my window wakened me. I pulled the blanket up closer to me, as I was exhausted, not wanting to get out of bed.  I had been shivering all night because it felt like our house was filled with cold freezing ice. There was condensation all over my window. Suddenly I saw the sun shining through my curtains and see leaves falling down from the tree on to the ground. I could hear my mum in the kitchen boiling the jug. “Hello my son” mum said to me in  loud voice as she came into my room with toast, a hot cup of chocolate and cocoa pops for my breakfast. “Thank you mum” I replied. When I finished eating my breakfast and drinking my hot chocolate I felt much better.

Banning cars in the French Capital City of Paris

On the 17th of March 2014 in the French capital city of Pairs has made the radical step of banning cars. The law for banning car’s, is that the air pollution is going fine but is people doing what they are suppose to do. The cars in Paris with odd-numbered registration plates, is the only cars that is allowed to be on the roads in Paris on certain days.



Our Government was trying to reduce the air pollution levels in the City because it is going way too high. People driving will also get fined if they don't stick with the new rules in the French capital City of Paris. If odd numbered plates drive on the road in Paris when it is an even day there car will get towed.



In New Zealand on the 30th July 1979, it is the similar scenario that took place in Paris too. The oil crisis is really bad and someone will get endured, but if the Government of the French capital city of Paris does something about it then no one will get hurt.

The Samoan Group

When I was sitting in the hall for Assembly the Tamaki College students were performing a Samoan dance for us at Pt England school. Everyone was so excited to hear them sing for us and perform a Samoan dance for us as well. They had a lot of talent in them and they sang there hard out, it even made Mr Jacopsen cry because it was so beautiful. The first performance that they did had a nice beat in it and I bet they had a lot of practices to make it that perfect.


My favourite one was they 3rd performance that they did for us, because you can hear everyone's lovely voices, the girls going high and the boys going low. It just sounded wonderful and they did everything they could to make it better and better,and that's what we need to do to make us look perfect when FiaFia comes.


After they did there Samoan performance for us, Casie said " what is going to help us get better in our performance for FiaFia". All we need to do is smile give everything you have sing out loud if you are in the choir and dance you hard out, even if your in hip hop, Kapa Haka, Fijian, Samoan, even if your in the Togan group. Practice, practice and practice makes perfect.

Lizara Empathy - Emily and Laura

“I am so hungry” Laura said “There is nothing in her I need to go shopping” Laura said once again. Emily said“ can I go shopping with you Laura”. “Sorry you can’t come because you're too young” replied Laura. Suddenly she stomped her feet, screamed out really loud and said “ this is not fair I want to go too, you are the meanest sister ever”. She ran to her room and she didn't show her face after 20 minutes went past. "I feel so sad now that my sister said no to me" Emily mumbled to herself. 


“I feel really upset now but I have to go shopping I will apologize to her after when I come back” Laura said. After 20 minutes past Emily finally came out of her room and notice that her older sister Laura left her at home with her pet dog. “I am not happy because she didn’t let me go shopping with her” Emily said to her self. “ I also have to apologize to her for the selfish things I said, I will do that once she comes back home” Emily said in her head.



Laura came home and packed the food when she finish packing it away she started looking for Emily so that she can say sorry to her. She finally found her and said “Sorry Emily for not letting you come shopping with me I feel really selfish and I promise I will never do it again”. “I am sorry too Laura for saying those mean and nasty things to you and I really didn’t mean it” Emily Replied. “So I was thinking if I should take you shopping right now” said Laura “Yes please I would love that” Emily said loudly to her sister.

Bio Poem Three

My name is Lizara
I am the child of Suenna and Robert
We love our family, and neighbours
