Memoir

WALT: Write a memoir inspired by James K. Baxter's "The Town"

The beach was usual enough; it had
Soft sand, a beautiful ocean, stinging jellyfish, and clusters of succulent seafood   
in it, it even had heaps of giant sand dunes
 I love to climb. My brothers, my sisters, my cousins and I
Did what kids do - splashed in the cold
Water, built sandcastles, dug holes, dodged the ginormous
waves, dived like dolphins in the
Big blue puddle with a great sense of humour,
Splashed my family and cousins, played and played
Having heaps of fun.
Doing nothing important.

ManaiaKalani film festival

Today I went to the ManaiaKalani film festival. We watched all the films that the other schools created. All the schools thought hard on what they created and made it to the cinemas to watch all their cool films they created. I thought Te Manga's film was the best because of the sound affects the great actors and the script. I think that was a quality film. We worked hard as well we had a good show but I wouldn't say it is better than Te Manga's. We worked hard and and managed to make the film. Happily we made it to the cinemas where our movie was played on big screen. When we went inside we walked on the red carpet. That was my first time I loved it. I then zoomed inside and sat down in my seat and was ready to watch the films.They were mind-blowing. The cool thing was that in the end we even got to have an ice-cream or a frozen coke because we did so well.
