My Book Review

I have finished my book and now I am starting a new one. This book is called "Take Your Last Breath, By Lauren Child" This is the sequel to the last book I read which was " Look into my eyes" In this book, Ruby Redfort (The main character) is training for some missions she has to do at spectrum. Spectrum is a secret agency Ruby works for. I've only just started but this is already a thrilling tale and I cant wait to see what happens next.

Food Tech!!

Friday 24 May

From Tuesday to Friday half of Room 29 have been going to food tech, taught by Whaea Raina. On Tuesday Whaea Raina was sick so we had Mrs Smith. We all got into buddys, I went with Sian. On Tuesday we made Jam Tarts, Sian and I were very pleased with the pastry. On Wednesday We made banana chocolate chip muffins, Sian and I were happy with them because they were golden brown and rounded on the top, which is what we wanted. On Thursday we made self crusting quiche, Sian and I loved the flavours in our one. Today we got to choose to make either the tarts, muffins or quiche. We chose quiche. Also we had to change 2 things. For our changes we added tomato and chives. We think they made a big difference and we enjoyed it alot. Here is a photo of us with our masterpiece!

My Book Review

The book that I am reading is called, Look into my eyes, by Lauren Child. This book is a mystery book about a girl called Ruby Redfort. She is an amazing problem solver and she has been asked to be apart of a secret agency called Spectrum. At the moment Ruby is trying to figure out about a mysterious murder of a previous Spectrum agent. Ruby has the answers but the other Spectrum members dont believe her findings. This is a thrilling tale that gets you on the edge of your seat. Another great story by Lauren Child.

Awesome Catch Up

In my holidays my good friend, Rachel that I have know since I was about 4 came over to my house for a day because her parents are in Spain. Her grandma was looking after her but she went to Auckland for the day. At my house we did lots of cool things the first thing we did was have lunch, we made our very own salad sandwiches with some icy water. My dream job is to be a teacher so we played teachers with Rachel and I as the teachers and my brother and my sister as the pupils we played all day long at the end there was still a little bit of time left so I showed Rachel my iMovies that I created and we decided to make one of our own. I had great fun playing with Rachel and I cant wait to catch up with her again!!


Heres a photo of us!




Heres our movie, By the way this is NOT public on youtube.
