Stories about the Cross Country
I went to the cross country. I waited for the year ones to go on the cross country. I ran like a cheetah. I got my socks dirty. I felt my heart beating. I was fifth in the cross country. After the cross country I had a drink of water.

Trip to the Recycling Centre
At the transfer centre a big green machine like a concrete mixer sorted the recycling. The glass got broken and fell into 2 skips and the big things went up the conveyor belt. People were sorting all the plastics and tins. We saw 5000 milk bottles squashed into 1 bale. Most of the bales went to Hong Kong and China, but now some are recycled in Christchurch, Timaru and Invercargill.
They make about 20 bales of cardboard a day. We could see the cardboard getting squashed through a window in the machine.

Puss and Boose - Written by Hunter
One day there was a black and orange cat called Puss and a man called Boose. They had nothing to eat. There was a huge, fat, mean Ogre who tried to eat Puss. But Puss ran as fast as he could. Then Puss told the Ogre "You can't turn into a mouse". The Ogre said " I can!" Then Puss ate the Ogre.
Abigail plays us a tune!
Wow Abigail, you are amazing! Abigail plays 'He's got the whole world in his hands' to Room 8.
