My 100 word challenge for this week!

This week the prompt for our 100WC was..."as the flame flickered and went out..." For this challenge I was thinking really carefully about which words were needed and which weren't. Enjoy!

One day I went exploring in a New Zealand cave in search of the native bats that live there. I brought a torch (Wooden torch) and a few matches with me so if my torch went out I had a last minute light if need be. Now I am 47 feet underground and it is starting to get cold. This is when I thought of my last minute resort. It was fire so I decided to use it. I had to use all my matches to light it so if it went out. I had it going for one minute then it happened. The flame flickered and then went out...

Das Piano - my reading for Weeks 1 and 2




The last two weeks our reading group was reading a story from WWI called 'Das Piano' which means 'The Piano'. It is a German title. We were learning to describe a character from an alternative point of view and understand how people and communities behaved in times of conflict.

way to the sky. That annoying boy is my little brother John Cena he is a bit dale in the head but anyway this is about me.

It is a big dream for me to get to the stairway to the sky. It’s my birthday today and I am 16 years old and I am getting a car for my birthday. I am planing on going to the church of all churches so I can go to the STAIRWAY TO THE SKY.

TRUE OR FALSE?

This week we had to write our school holiday story and it might be true or false. What do you think?


I have been on a German road. I walked to the peak of a mountain and in the process I cut my knee on a big  sharp rock . I did not bring any plasters so it was bleeding really badly.  When I got home I got a plaster but by then it had stopped bleeding but I needed to get 7 stitches. It because it hurt so bad. I was safe but only inches away from wasps, if you stopped all of the mountain would be humming. The holidays were fun.  And I be highly recommend going there if you like wasps. But take a  longer walk it will be fun. Thank you.
