Tiger likes spending time playing with the penguins. Tiger and the penguins are always walking up the lane playing tricks on people who live there. One day they played some tricks on Bob and Obb. They said there was a giant cat and dog outside. When they looked outside Tiger said I made you look.

At number 100b Penguin lane lives Fire-Mire. She has a pet called Kitten-Mitten. Her house has a rainbow roof. It is painted like a fire. Fire-Mire lives next door to her twin sister Shell-Bell. There is a walk way between their houses so they can always visit each other. Fire-Mire and Shell-Bell like to play together with their pets. One day Fire-Mire and Shell-bell saw Bob and Obb doing something bad. Fire-Mire called Noddy and Yoddy  to come and arrest them.

Kerpoof Story

 

One day I went outside and went for a swim in the pool with my friends. When I was swimming I saw a big shark I was so scared that I jumped out and ran inside. My friend’s stayed in the pool because they weren’t scared. My mum rang the police to get the shark .The police came but they didn’t know how to get it out. So mum rang the firemen and they used a giant net and got it out. I was so excited to have a swim again.

Last Wednesday Mr Jones from Ian Jones Photography came with lots of cameras to show us. He had old cameras and cameras that were different sizes. I liked the little spy camera but it is hard to get film for it. He showed us a huge picture he had printed out of the Wanganui river.
