To the Editor
My name is Tasha and Otaika Valley School is looking for a new principal. In a new principal we would like one who is caring, helpful and likes animals.
We have a big playground, a new painted pool, a BMX track and a very colourful court. Otaika Valley School is a little country school with five classrooms. We always have nice birds singing.
The teachers at our school are always nice and caring. They sort out our problems and give us concerts and discuss how awesome is that if you want to be our next no.1 principal come along and apply for this amazing job, hurry offer ends in July.
Yours Sincerely
Tasha

The Tales of The Chosen. Part two: The second choice.
Suspended in the Moktar Nebula, Zoron, a Space scavenger, is enjoying another scavenging. But then, his co-pilot, Alex, warns about up-coming satellitles. "Warning captain, incoming minesweep!" Said Alex. "Prepare for crash down!" Yelled Zoron. Suddenly, the spaceship is ripped in two by the mniesweep, a small tumor flying towards orons half. "Huh? what's thi-" suddenly the tumor flew onto Zoron. "Get it off!" Zoron screamed as the tumor began to swell, going over his eyes. Now completely covered in the tumor, Zoron has perfect vision. Looking at his limbs, he gets the most astonishing shock in a lifetime. "Wha- what am I?" Said Zoron, except it was not human speech that came out, only a screech similar to a Hawks. As Zoron notices that he I a Hawk, he changes shape again, and again, and again. Over time, Zoron began to control when and what he changed into. Zoron Became, The Shifter.
The Tales of The Chosen. Part one: The first of the chosen.
Stumbling through the dark, Alex, a common space warrior, searches for a light source. "C'mon, there's gotta somethi-" suddenly, Alex was blinded by light. Soon after, the light dimmed, revealing a small orb in the middle of an empty room. The orb had a yellowish glow. Alex hesitated, then carefully, he picked up the orb, somehow changing it's color, now glowing blue, a watery tentacle shot out of the orb! "What the-" Before Alex could finish, the tentacle started spinning rapidly, turning one of the doors into water with a single smack. "Hmmm.., this could be useful." Thought Alex. After restoring the ships light and landing on earth. Alex began studying the orb and learning it's secrets. Soon, Alex realized that with this orb, he may be able to control the elements, bending the shapes of earth, Swirling the air, forming aquatic shapes, restoring the dried up plants, Alex became... the elemental sage.
Ants
I was looking into the monsters eye. The monsters eye was big and green like a giant bay only well giant. Then all our surroundings turned to evil mutants.
SQEECH SQOOh
Half our right army was smashed by the mutants large flast bombykncker.
The wind was picking up and then I saw it the mosters house.
SMACK!!!
My cousin got whamed into a giant jar form the monster itself. Then it ran inside with five of our colony. The wind stopped and so did the mutants. I looked through the window (giant) and then saw my friends in a type of box thing.
The monster ran out and the mutants came back to life
BAMM
it went dark.
I woke up and heard Dylan! lunch time!
I saw an even bigger monster staring at me, then it turned and ran off.
A lovely smell drifted past ten then I realized I was never going to get out alive.

ANZAC
I believe that the celebration of ANZAC day is important to our culture because ANZAC day protects the memories of the very souls that gave our country freedom.
ANZAC day also teaches us that war can be senseless and unforgiving, and there can be other ways to solve problems such as negotiating or working interdependently to fix arguments.
In addition ANZAC day unites Australia and New Zealand together and it reminds us that Australia will always be there for us even in the most unpleasant
of times.
It also helps young children learn about our ancestry and how ANZACS changed the way we think about war. They are also a role model to us all. They have shown us what it means to be brave and to stand up for what we believe is right.
ANZAC day is important and I hope we keep remembering and celebrating ANZAC day in the future.

Supporting Online School.
With my limited knowledge of online schools, I have come up with these possible facts about Online Schools and why I support them.
1: an online school is practically like a real school, apart from the fact that online schools are virtual universes, there are teachers, whether Non User Character or real Teachers on the program, real assignments, breaks to relax, other people to chat with, etc, a virtual online school is like having a school in your computer!
2: you can deal with bullies in a less violent manner, like reporting them to the websites moderators. (moderators are the people who run the website) instead of confronting them.
3: with worldwide communication, it would be near impossible to be lonely.
4: with a regular time of two breaks a day, five days a week, and with virtual camp trips, how could you be bored?
5: if you have made friends with people, but you become sick in real life you can still go to the school.
6: Online schools are quite popular, and when the class is full but more students are pouring in, they can instantly put in more desks.
7:If some days, you just don't feel like getting out of bed, just pull up a laptop n a school day and go to an online school.

Miss T thinks we shouldn't have school holidays. I don't agree. I would like extended school at but taking away our school holidays that's by far to much. Miss T must be nutty she would have to come to school every day of the weak. We work all weak and now no holidays what next no break times.
children get board. Board children stop working .Children that stop working start shouting. Shouting children make teachers heads heart. Teachers Then they growl. then the children leave.
You policy clearly states that students will have two breaks a day, 40 minutes each, and six hours of school time, five days a week, weekends, two days a week. by doing this, you should just rip this part of the policy apart.
I think we need holidays so then we can take a rest from school. we need school but we need time off school I mean 2 weeks of it.we need school holidays, four of them a day.
