Room Four Writing

Anzac Battle

The waves tumbled and turned

As the raft rushed rapidly towards shore,

The soft surfaced sand squished under my feet

As the mountains loomed high above.



The blades of grass were sliced and diced

The turrets twisted and twirled,

Dirt flew like volcanic rock

As soldiers marched on and on.
 

Blood oozed and made me woozy,

Corpses collapsed like falling trees,

Buildings burned while people churned,

As poppy’s rested with the dead.



 

Jungle
  The jungle is like a living painting
Purple parrots, florescent flamingos
Soar above a green sea

  The graceful trees stand proud and tall
Their heads rise high above the canopy
As they keep watch over their domain  

Just below the guardians lies the canopy
Their arms link together
To form a never ending sea  

The jungle is bright with colour
This wonderful place God made
Is truly a paradise

PrEP

PrEP stands for Primary enterprise programme, this programme is used to train younger ones on how to be Entrepreneurs and Business owners.

We start off PrEP with the CEOS handing their business proposals to the Governance (The Governance is usually the Principal and/or the Deputy Principal). Over the few weeks the Governance look at these proposals and either accept them or decline them. The Governance look to see if that business is worthwhile and if it is going to make enough money. There are other businesses that are owned by teachers for example the storehouse and bank: the storehouse provides the materials that are needed for your business. The bank provide money that is needed to start off your business (This is called a loan). With the loan there is also interest (Extra money to pay) this is the only way the bank can make a profit.

The next phase was electing a Mayor. The Mayors duties is to control behaviour and welcome the parents to PrEP (This is so there is hardly any teachers involved so that the programme is all about the kids). The Students that want to run for Mayor send the Governance applications to show that they are running for Mayor. When the applications are successfully handed in the candidates write speeches to persuade the children to elect them. Once all votes are in the candidate with the most votes become Mayor. This year the candidates that ran for Mayor were Jacob Wylie, Cassidy Wright, and Ezra Malo. The candidate that won the election was Ezra Malo.

After the Mayor has been elected the CEOS who have handed in their Business proposals and were successful say a speech to persuade people to come and work for them. After their speeches the children write their applications and C.Vs to the CEOs Business they found cool or interesting. The CEOs either accept the application or decline it.

If accepted the child that wants the job will go for an interview with the CEO. The CEO will ask the child questions if the CEO is happy with the child’s answers or the way he/she answered the CEO will send a letter to inform the child that he/she is accepted. If not accepted the CEO will also send a letter to inform the child that he/she is not accepted. 


The storm

Boom! Flash! Boom!

The rain is tormenting down,

The plants are greedily gulping the water,                      

Making me feel like there has just been a drought.

 
The wind is screaming without hesitating,

Threatening to flatten everything in its path.

Soon I hear some young voices scream,

The floodwaters threaten to swallow them up.


The thunder is as loud as a gunshot,

The lightening as bright as the sun.

There is chaos all around this town,

And only now does the storm resolute to calm down.
