Rangitoto Island

On Wednesday the 15th of November 2017 we went to Rangitoto Island. We travelled from school to the city and  when we got of the boat we washed our shoes and went on the ferry.

Then we went to Queen's Wharf to pick up some more people and at Queens wharf it  looked like a boat .Then we went to Rangitoto  Island. When  we got off the boat we had a quick snack before hiking up Rangitoto. While we were hiking we saw a lot of rocks and hills and stairs.

After the walk we were close to the Rangitoto Island summit so we kept on walking and when we got there we had some lunch. Then we saw the light house and we had a look how long we walked up.It was long as a volcano and  then we  went  all the way back down. It was hard to go down cause you have to control yourself all the way down.When we got down we saw a stingray so we jumped in our lines to make sure  everyone was here when the boat  arrived .We hopped  onto  the boat and  Miss Ate ave just made it in time. Then we left and went back to school.

The trip was awesome but I was very tired and I fell asleep on the bus.

I heard a whisper

I heard a whisper

It was a summer day and it was so sunny and  there was a boy called  Matt who was at the beach and he heard a whisper but he never knew where that whisper came from.  

                                                                                  

First he went to the basement to go and find out where that whisper came from.He was scared and  then something moved and it fell down so he quickly ran out and shut the door.

Then he went up to the attic and  he saw something black and  it moved so he came out and he asked him  what was he  doing  there. Matt said that he just heard a whisper from up in the attic but there was nothing there.

Then they found who said the whisper.I t was  Dr German so he got arrested.
