My Escaping story
When i was 7 years old I had to move country’s. My name is Tama I have one sister and no brothers and I live with her and my mum and dad and this is my story of how i left my country to a New zealand. It was a dark stormy night when i could hear people outside with guns and grenades i ran to my mum and told her about it and she said ‘ there is a war quick hide! With scared and frighten emotions i ran with my sister and hid in my cupboard and stayed there with mum, sister and dad until there was a knock on the door we ignored it and stayed hiding until there was bombs setting of around our neibor hood so we started to pack up everything we could carry with us and i wanted to bring my mini basketball hoop but mum and dad said no. so instead i brung my basketball that came with the hoop and a teddy bear. We brung a lot of clothes and went on a journey to find a new country. We didn’t want to take the car because we didn’t want to look suspicious we ran out our street and found ourselves with some other people that live down our street it was a mother and her own son. They came with us and we went with them and we all went to find a new country.
We walked for several hours until we found the government house. We had ask told the government what had happened and they had told us we were force to leave our country to a refugee camp then I ask mum ‘what is a refugee camp mum? Then she said ‘ its a place for people who dont have a country or a home to stay or live in” so we had to walk to the camp and when we got there… When we got there at the front gate were two guards with big machine gun making sure that no one will try to escape and there was a lot of family’s there i felt so sad for them and so did my sister. Our family stayed with the other family that came with us but we slept in different tents.
One year has gone past still at the refugee camp no country has wanted any of us mum, dad and my sister a getting sick until one day on thursday one country called new zealand and gave us a offer for us refugees to live in mum and dad have hurd about thins country ans said that this country has had no wars, bombs or anything else, i felt excited about moving to that country but i was going to miss my family that lived there and my friend’s.
We had started traviling on saturday by going in small groups and we got to go in vans and got on to boats sadly we couldn’t go by plane so it took us 12 hours to get to new zealand but when we went got there it was beautiful no wars and the rivers and beaches were even more beautiful. So after that we lived there for the rest of our life.

Antarctica
Antarctica
At school we have been learning about antarctica and these are some of the things i learnt
To get to antarctica it takes 10 hours on plane and when your 3hours in you will have to make a choice if you want to land 3hours in or keep going far in to antarctica, also you can go by plane or boat but the boat will take much longer. You can find a volcano in Antarctica called mount ebebrus for the last few years this volcano and been erupting a lot and there is a village called Villa Las Estrellas found on king george island and was built in 1984. In Antarctica they’re winters can go to 15 degrees Celsius and they’re summers go up to 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Antarctica can be found around the south pole. December 14th 1911 Antarctica was discovered by falcon scott there was a race to find antarctica first and falcon scott was one of them and as he was finding antarctica he lands on a mountain he found out he was on antarctica as he came back with disastrous results.

school work in lock down
during lock down I have been doing online class meetings so I can keep learning. while we are doing online class meetings we also get some work from our teacher like, maths, reading, writing and more. so for writing our teacher whaea Annie give's us a story starter so we add some more to it, So here is one of my stories that i have written .
She took a break because she was struggling to walk properly. Her journey began at the end of the path, as it was the beggining of the twisted stairs. she couldn’t see what direction the stairs were going. She keeped going till the stair way stop. The stairs were in weird directions. It was like a snake moving side to side. It took her a long time to get to the top but she didn’t give up. When she got to the top She saw the door. She was happy because the stories she was toldit was true but there were two guards guarding the door. she walked up to the door and the guard said “if you enter you must answer a riddle from the both of us”. “oK” said the woman. The first guard said “if you get it wrong we will have to send you back to the bottom of the mountain”. She was terrified because it took her hours to get up the mountain and the stairs. “o”K She said with a scared voice. “what has a head and a tail but cant talk” said the first guard. She was thinking and thinking she pulled out a coin out of her pocket to hold on to. But when she looked at it she said “this side has a head, she flipped it and said, this side has tales” So she walked up to the guard and said “a coin in a confident voice”. “yes” said the first guard, “ Now You Must Answer My Riddle” said the other guard. oK said the woman. But this time the guard had a paper that she thought was really cool and it said CAN YOU SPOT SPOT THE MISTAKE 1 2 3 4 6 7 8 9 10 She asked the guard She asked the guard if she could get a closer look at the paper. While lookingat the riddle she was whispering to her self “can you spot the mistake, can you spot the mistake” then looking 1 2 3 4 6 7 8 9 10 looking and looking she could not see it but then she read it again “can you spot spot huh? it says can you spot spot the mistake” so she walk up to the second guard and said “the mistake is that it says can you spot spot the mistake”. “Yes you a right” said the second guard so they let her through the doors and it was there right in front her eyes “yes, yes it true” the woman said with tears “its really true”.so she walked up to get a map with some treasure. under the map was a key to unlock the box that the treasure was in she opened it the was gold, a ruby, diamonds and a hole lot of cash. she walk back down the snake stairs and the mountain, “finally i can save my job from the builders trying to brake it and i can live a healthy life no more troubles at all.
