Plutanium

Plutanium is an Earth like planet that is three times the  size of Jupiter and
orbits in the same line as Plutorious. It takes one Ao (Earth) year for it to
orbit the sun the sun is very hot on plutanium.

Plutanium is the identical twin of Plutorious they have their own solar system
its called Plutoranious.

Plutanium is a tropical planet that has teal coloured water which is just as
warm as a bath.

Plutanium has dinosaurs like Earth use to have. The people that live on the
planet are mutants. They are friendly and not scary. The mutants breathe
oxygen like us humans and they are very strong like hulk.

The planet Plutanium is made out of rock and precious metals. It is found
in the middle of the Milky way galaxy. Plutanium has 35 Marama (moons)
and if you look up at night you will see all 35 moons that cover the sky.

The only way to get to Plutanium is in a gold and silver rocket ship called
Bullet 2, 4, 6.

My waewae.

My legs. I like my waewae because they let me run to do my paper run. I like my legs because they let me ride my motorbike as fast as a cheater. I like my legs because they let me ride my bike on bush tracks. Biking, hiking, I don't  like hiking but I like mountain biking! I like my waewae because they let me walk to interesting places. I like my waewae because they are strong to hold me up so I can do lots of  things.

My mihi 2018

Holiday Writing

  Dear Miss Ireland

My siblings and I went out to my Nana’s farm during the holidays, we rode our motorbikes around most of the time. My motorbike is a Honda CRF80. It runs on 91 Unleaded fuel and it only costs around $8 to fill my tank up. Before you go motorbiking you should always check the fuel, the oil and you should always run the bike for a few minutes then check the oil again and make sure you hold the bike level, the brakes, and check that the chain has oil on it and that it is not too tight or loose. After you have done all of that you need to kick start your bike and warm it up before riding.

In the holidays Jayden, Kayla and I went out to Kumara and went motorbike riding on all the back roads around Dilmanstown and around the paddocks at my Nana’s farm. We rode through creeks, mud, massive puddles, over jumps, and up steep hills. On our ride we saw bush,birds,wekas,campervans,and gorse. We were riding for ages and ages and then we ended up at Old Christchurch Road. So we went back and on the way back we went past Cowboys Paradise. We carried on back to my Nana’s farm and we saw rabbits,ducks,gorse

Creeks,jumps,and campervans.

When we got back to our Nana’s farm we helped our dad in the shed. We worked on the oil shed that we took all the iron off. Then we found some iron that my dad had lying around. When we replaced all of the iron we could put lots of stuff in there because it wasn't leaking.
