BOOK WEEK PARADE DAY BY RIA AND ALEXA on PhotoPeach


                                      BOOK WEEK

On book week we had to drop and read at about 10:15am.  We have a Librarian who arranged book week.  On Friday we dressed up and walked down the street.  I dressed as Pippilong-stockings.  Mrs Milne  dressed up as the jellybean Queen.   She also read as a story to us and at the end of the we got jellybeans.

                                       LAKE ROTOITI                                  

On the 22nd of May 2012 we slowly drove to lake Rotoiti and on the bus two vomited.  When we got to lake Rotoiti we had some morning tea and went into  the bush.  We could hear lots of birds.  Then we split up into two groups,one group went on the honeydew walk and the other talked about traps.  Did you know that control is a nice way of saying killing.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           
TREASURE ISLAND
This story starts in the Admiral Benbow, an inn.  Jim  Hawkins (played by Quin) works there.  Billy Bones  (played by Shanti) comes to stay.  He has a treasure map .  He was once a pirate, a member of Captian  Flint's crew.  He is visited by Black Dog (played by Stevie) who fights him.  Then the evil Blind pew  (played by Sasha) comes and scares him to death.
Jim gets the map . He gets the Goodies, Dr Livesey (played by Charlie) Squire Trelawney (played by Sarah),  Mr Dance (played by Shannen) and they hire a ship called the Hispaniola.  The captain is Captain  Smollet (played by Makayla) who gets Long John (played by Madison) to collect a crew.  Long John is evil and one of Captain Flint's  pirates.  He collects all the other pirates and away they sail.
On the trip Jim  hears of a plot to get the treasure. When they get to the island the Goodies go to the stockade. The baddies go in search of the treasure.  An old pirate called Ben Gunn (played by Zion) who has been marooned, arrives and joins the gang.
Jim takes off and sails the ship around the island.  The pirates have nowhere to go.  There's a big fight.  The pirates are winning. until they hear Ben Gunn who they think is a ghost of Captain Flint..  Ben Gunn screams horribly.
They all run away and the goodies find the treasure and sail back to England.
My favourite part were my speaking parts, because I spoke.
My favourite character was Jim, because he is the main character.
My part in the show was on the boat talking.
It's Billy Bones and Jim
It's Long John Silver
