Calender art

Last week we did calender art for that I did two Phoenix's. One of t
he Phoenix's was red and the other one was white. At first I wanted it
on a black and grey background but I only had to leave small pieces of
white amongst the grey that you may not be able to see.something else
that you may not be able to see is the acute patterns of koru's and fire.
There are lines on the tail and the story behind mine is a fight between the oldest birds in the flock

The Mysterious Benedict society

The mysterious Benedict society by Trenton Lee Stewart is a book. This book is about four children that go to a test for fun or is it? They get through to the second and third round and by then its just them left! It couldn't be smartness that got them all through because the only smart ones there were the main Character Reynie and another person called sticky who's actual name was George but was called sticky because everything he read stuck in his head. The other two were a do it myself type called Kate and a small ignorant girl called Constance. The four of them passed five tests two were of answering questions, one was not getting answers one was a maze and one was having to figure out how to cross a room without touching the blue squares on the floor with your feet.
What they did after the tests was they had to spy on a castle the world. Their job is not only to spy on them but to stop the evil mastermind who has been planning this for ages. this book is very interesting but if you do read it don't be surprised as to what you might find.

production

From week 1 to week 7 this term we have been practising for the 2 night show of saint Benedict's production, not another fairy tale. This was about a useless quest to wake his parents from a magical sleep.

There were many dances and songs in the production including M.C Hammer's cant touch this and the Beatles hit Being for the benefit of Mr Kite. The other year 7 and eight dance was Holding out for a hero. All of our dances were awesome but the one that i heard most talk of was Cant touch this. The costumes were horrendous but to good extent, almost everyone was in two dances except the scary god mother, the troop and me. There was either a year 7 or eight in each dance, although of this the class in the dance were the main focus. the troop had to venture through all the classes to get the magical ingredients. Room 1 and 2 was snow white and the many Dwarfs, room 4 was jack and the beanstalk, room 5 was ugly duckling, room 6 was ginger bread Olympics, room 7 was Goldilocks, room 8 was broken egg, room 9 was 3 little pigs, room 10 was puss in boots and then off course room 11 and 12 were Knights, freaky circus and King Midas.
