Bump, crack, creak! The shiny bus stopped right in front of Te Ahu Ahu Mountain. I was so excited to be climbing Te Ahu Ahu Mountain for the first time in my life. Mrs Craig opened the gate for us and I smelt cow dung straight away. Now that was gross. My class tiptoed past the cows in the smelly paddock. My class were really tired already. There were lots of fences and gates on the mountain. Finally I was nearly at the top of the mountain. About 30 steps and I was there. I sat down on the mountain and got out my drink bottle to have a drink. “Ahhh that's better” I groaned.


Mrs Gardiner shouted out, “come back, come back.” All the children came back and sat on the grass. A man arrived in a shiny black truck. Suddenly he parked the black truck on the mountain. “A man, named Hone, has come to tell us a story!” shouted Matua Ken. Hone hopped out of the truck and walked up and told us his story. “G'day mate, ready for a story” Hone shouted to everyone in the school. “Yes!” screamed the school. “My friend and I found Hone Heke's bones in Parkaraka and we buried them somewhere over there on that mountain” shouted Hone. The school asked Hone a few questions.  “Lunch time!” shouted Mrs Clark. Everyone walked down part of the mountain and sat down to have lunch. I sat with Sara, Piata, Kate and Mrs Clark. I gobbled my tomato sandwich. It was really delicious.

“Time to go back to school” screamed Mrs Whitelaw. The whole school walked down the mountain. Room 4, 5 and 6 were first to go on the bus. I went in Cassandra’s car.  The car came to a stop. I hopped out of the car and ran to put my bag away and went out to play.

I felt happy and really tried after I walked up Te Ahu Ahu mountain.

Here is my Te Ahu Ahu writing about walking the Mountain.Our focus was to use powerful verbs and appropriate adjectives.I think my writing has appropriate adjectives and verbs.
