Bob

At first glance bob looked totally normal. He had a V6 engine that fitted inside his enormous shell. How ever when I took him to the park something extraordinary happened. When I dropped him in the water he sank right to the bottom of the pond because of his heavy shell. Suddenly he started up his engine and started swimming up to the top of the pond. Bob started skimming across the water while doing back flips and landed in my hands. He started to talk to me but then a war started and he pulled out his sniper rifle and started to shoot.

All About

Neptune

By Jack

Neptune is named after the roman god of the sea. Its the eighth planet from the sun. Its almost 3 billion miles away from planet earth.

neptune’s day has only 16 hours unlike earth it has 24 hours. it is almost four times the diameter of Earth. A 100-pound person who stood, or floated, on the surface of Neptune would weigh 114 pounds. Neptune orbits much further away from the Sun than the Earth, so its orbit takes much longer. In fact, Neptune takes 164.79 years to orbit around the Sun. That's almost 165 times longer than Earth takes to orbit the Sun.

The atmosphere of Neptune is similar to all the large planets in the Solar System; it mostly consists of hydrogen and helium, with trace amounts of methane, water, ammonia and other ices. But unlike the other gas planets in the Solar System,Neptune's atmosphere has a larger proportion of the ices. According to scientists, the surface of Neptune is one of the coldest places in the Solar System. At its surface, where the clouds of the planet touch space, the temperature of Neptune can dip down to 55 Kelvin. That's -218 degrees Celsius.  neptune is the last gas-planet in our solar system.

The largest moon is Triton. Triton is slightly smaller than Earth's Moon and has active volcanoes which erupt like geysers and eject nitrogen frost over the surface. Some of the other moons of Neptune are Nereid, Proteus, Larissa, Despina, Galatea, Thalassa, and Naiad. Yes, Neptune has several faint rings around it. There are three main rings which are very thin and dark. The rings are made up of small rocks and dust. Neptune's rings are not the same thickness all around.

Neptune is a fascinating planet, with short and extremely long years. That could never support life.

Camp

A few weeks ago I went on a amazing school camp at Orton

Bradley park. First thing we did was high ropes. Before we

got to high ropes I went for a walk through the creek. When

we got to high ropes I did the giant ladder then the flying

kiwi at the flying kiwi I got buckled up to the b-lay team.

Finally it was my turn. When you are the kiwi you walk back

to a cone then run as fast as you can until you go flying in

the air. When I came down I hit the ground so hard I got

ground shock. The safety gear that you needed was:

helmet,harness and ropes.

Burnham dawn service

On Saturday 25th-April it was an early morning start for my family and I. We headed to Burnham army base for the Anzac dawn service. The morning was warm and dark. It felt like I was in war as there were lot's of soldiers greeting people as they came in the gate. The lone man was standing silently on top of the water tower. Then he started playing the bagpipes. Then there was a loud bang it was the cannon. When the bang went off the trees went flying back. Then burnham school did a performance. Then the soldiers lay the wreaths of all the dead. We all sung the national anthem and had a minute silence.

Duck shooting

Duck shooting

On Saturday dad and I went to dad's cousin's farm at kaituna valley to go duck shooting. We had to get up at 5:30 am to go shooting the day was wet and cold perfect for duck shooting. When we got there it was dark so we got into the maimai then dad and Ray loaded the guns up ready for the shoot. While we were waiting we saw a massive flash in the sky it lit the whole countryside up we didn't know what it was. At 7:00 am. The sky was light enough to shoot the ducks. The first two ducks were coming in hot so only a semi automatic gun could shoot them and Ray was the only one that shot the two ducks. The maimai had a couch so we sat down and waited for the next mob. After 10 minutes there was a mob of 15 ducks. Guns going bang empty shells going everywhere ducks falling out of the sky like hail stones they managed to hit about 6 ducks then we waited for the next mob to come in. So we practiced our duck calling it worked the next ducks were on there way dad and Ray loaded up and started shooting. More ducks fall out of the sky it was great fun. After there was no ducks, we went and collected them from the pond. All counted we got 12 not to bad for a morning shoot. Then we went back to the shed and plucked them. Then at 10:00 am we went home. On the way home we found out what the flash was. It was a power transformer that exploded. That night mum cooked the ducks for tea they were so good!!!
