Fable

Helpfulness
A long time ago at Pukete school, on the big playground, Sarah and Macie needed help. They were stuck on the spider web and the only other people there were Max, Mark and Chris but they didn’t  help one bit.  A little later a teacher came by.They told the teacher what happened and asked for advice. The teacher replied, ‘Stay away and don’t be their friends.” Just then the bell rang. Then they went back to class and said, “We’re not going to be your friends.”

Moral; If you don’t be helpful nobody will trust you and you won’t have any friends.

Pirate Story

Once upon a time there was a crew of funny pirates called the Laughs.  One day one of the Laughs spotted an island and shouted, "No land ahoy."
Just then the Captain of the Laughs shouted,"Don't sail to the island."
Right then the Laugh who steered the ship said, "Of course I won't sail towards the island Captain," and he started to sail towards the spooky island.  Suddenly something said, "Grrrrrrrrrrrr hissssssssssss grrrrrrrrrrrr de grrrrr."
When the Laughs heard it they felt scared, very, very, scared, but the Laughs knew what it was. It was a mutant cat and dog, so they had to get the treasure quickly.  Just then the Laughs spotted a treasure chest. Then three of the Laughs dived in, got the chest and brought it up.  Then they were all happy.  The end.

Watchers

At midnight
the neighbour's cat
jumped on the pane
and spied on some mice.

In the afternoon a seagull
clung onto my window
and watched me
unwrap some fish and chips.

At midday a dog
jumped up
and it's claw
pressed against my window.

I Will Never Eat That Again!

One day at my Nana's house it was dinnertime and I looked down at my plate expecting chicken sausages, mash potato and gravy but instead there was mash potato and orange mashed pumpkin.  I didn't want to eat it but my Dad said I had to, so I ate it.  The pumpkin tasted disgusting because it was very, very spicy!!!
