Teleporter

Article posted July 28, 2010 at 11:55 PM GMT • comment (1) • Reads 447

Once upon a time there was a helpful robot. Nobody knew his name but he helped people a lot by fixing houses . He was in Helpful World but then … he fell into a working teleporter. He fell into it and got teleported into Disaster World. There were mudslides and earthquakes that minute. He thought about how he would get back to Helpful World. He went to one of the Disaster Droids to ask him where he was. “Are you awake?” asked the robot. No answer. The droid was dead. ‘This really is Disaster World’ thought the robot. He saw a shiny thing one mile away. He thought he could fly there to check if it was the teleporter that he had tripped over before. He flew one mile. Guess what. It was the teleporter. When he bumped it the first time he heard something click. It must have been the off and on button. So he looked down. There it was, the off and on button. It was off so he flicked it on. He jumped in and he was home, back in Helpful World

Russian Egg Beating Game

Article posted May 20, 2010 at 11:47 PM GMT • comment • Reads 884

After Easter the Livewires got a package from Russia. It had stickers and instructions and a book. The instructions were for a Russian egg beating game. You need to get a hard boiled egg, draw a face on it and your name. Then find a partner. Hold your egg with your fingers and then try to hit their egg but don’t crack your egg. The partner is not allowed to move their egg either. When your or your partner’s egg cracks you can peel it. After that you can eat your boiled egg and then put the leftovers in the bin. You can play again if you want.

MAUNGATAUTARI

Article posted March 30, 2010 at 09:50 PM GMT • comment (5) • Reads 654

On Tuesday the 9th of March the Livewires went on a fantastic trip to Maungatautari to check the traps. Me, Douwe, Caleb, Ben, Harrison and Bryn-Louis went in Douwe’s Mum’s car. Then we got out of the car. Woo – look at the big mountain.
“Woo are we going to climb up that?” said Ben.
“Well yes,” said Mrs Collins.
Then the Livewires saw a table and there was a sign then Mrs Collins told the Livewires what it said.
“Please check your bags for mice” said Mrs Collins.
Then we went in a cage. We had to shut one door and open the other. Then we heard a fantail. Mrs Collins spat on a jar and rubbed a cork over the spit. Then we went to the Kaka feeding but the man was not there. We went to the tower. There were 91 steps – the Livewires counted. We headed back to the Kaka.
Then it was time to check the tracking tunnels. We had to follow pink ribbons tied around trees. We found R1. We found insects footprints. That was all we found. “Ah bees!” 7 people got stings. Mrs Weaver got 7 stings, the most. All together they got 18 stings. They were black bees.
