My Yellow poem

Yellow is bright like the sun
Early morning rise
Landscapes light up
Like pictures on the wall
Or golden like daffidills in spring
What happiness and warmth the colour yellow

ANZAC day


ANZAC Day 


On the 25th of April 1915  was when the New Zealand/Australian landed at ANZAC Cove getting ready for world war 1. Do you know that the ANZAC biscuits were the food for the men when they were fighting /on a boat     travelling to war. But the ANZAC biscuits did not have egg or milk in them so they did not go old when they were travelling.

The fright

Creak ,creak ,rustle, rustle ,stomp,stomp walking "hello" I said Charlotte. Wwwww where are you. I felt like my heart was about to jump out of my chest.


Wait I could hear something it sounded like music. What was music doing playing at 7pm at night. I slowly creep towards it. It must be Charlotte's dad. I got closer and closer. I got to the bush but where was the music. I searched hi and low. But where was it. Me Charlotte, Nicole and Caitlin looked and looked but we still could not find it. But when Charlotte put her hand in the bush she found her dads phone. What was it doing there but wait ....


Roarrrrrrrrrrrr ahhhhhhhhhhhhh it was Charlotte's dad he had jumped out of the bush behind us and scared us.


I was so horrified. What a fright. I had fun playing spot light.

Cooking muffins in a box

At Girl Guides this week we did something really exciting we learnt how to cook muffins using a cardboard box.

To do this you will need the following equipment:

- a cardboard box
- tinfoil
- a foil dish with charcoal (or instant charcoal BBQ)
- matches
- 4x empty tin cans (same size)
- muffin tray
- muffin mix


1. Cut the flaps off the cardboard box. The bottom of the box will be the top of the oven. Cover the inside of the box completely with tinfoil, placing the shiny side out.

2. Fill a tinfoil dish with charcoal briquettes ( or use an ''instant'' charcoal BBQ). Use some empty cans to hold with the muffins well above the charcoal. Put these around the outside of the tinfoil dish.

3 Light the charcoal and let it get nice and hot place your dish with the muffins on top of the cans once it has burnt down to the hot embers.

4 Put the cardboard box ''oven'' over the top to keep the heat in just like an oven. Prop up one end of the box with a stone to provide the air charcoal needs to burn-or cut air vents along lower edge of the oven.

The muffins didn't take much longer than a normal oven to cook and were very yummy to eat!
