Kaya @ Hamilton East School

Waiting in silence at the edge of the cliff, we watched the black and white coloured dice roll on the sandy beach covered with shells. The sky darkened as I peered up at it, wondering how the dice had got their in the first place. After a few minutes we were drenched from the storm. The hut that we built got struck by lightning. That’s when Chloe my little sister started crying, specks of tiny salty tears ran down her cheeks. Jaden my older brother was worrying about us “what if mum has forgotten about picking us up,” he explained.

Scanning the interesting mural wondering how busy it would be right now. Then my eyes turned to take a glimpse of an outstanding TANIWHA with c o l o u r f u l blends of c o l o u r s all over it. Examining the artwork checking if I can recognize some bits like the Lego looking tongue of the dog or the farm family or even the huge rocks, one has a humongous rocky coat.After looking at all the different parts of the mural we found our way back to the classroom and started writing our interesting story.
