When we went on our trip yesterday. First of all we drove by bus to Bishops school in Nelson. Bishops school is small with high windows so you don't look out and day dream. Mr Green was very scary but she was only pretending and her real name was Nicky. After that we had morning tea on the cathedral. Then we walked down to the museum and I am sure I saw a pretend taniwha. We had to do a quiz about in the olden days which wasn't that hard. When we had lunch at Queens Gardens we saw some ducks, eels and one frog. After lunch we walked to the Riverside indoor pool. It was so deep. It was about 2 meters deep. We got to go on a swing that led into the water. It was fun, in fact the whole trip was fun.
I come from Nelson/Mot and my favourite colour is green. My goal is to improve on maths. When I'm older I want to teach. MARCH 2

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
