Movie review: Tooth Fairy

Tooth fairy was directed by Michael Lembeek. The stars of the movie is Dwayne Johnson, Ashley Judd, and Julie Andrews. Tooth fairy was released in 2010 January the 22nd. This movie is based on a story, when a man named Derek Johnson was just an ordinary person that had a girlfriend and had two kids. But one day an extraordinary thing happend, he suddenly appeared with little pink tutu's and fairy wings and even ballet shoes. Derek got transported to a tooth fairy land. There was fairy's everywhere. The tooth fairy queen gave him a task that he had to in a week collect kids tooth's under their pillows.

My opinion on this movie is, its a very good movie for young kids from aged 5-12. My rating is probably 8/10. Tooth fairy is a very good movie and it is very good for a family night movie.

Today at 9.00 am, year 8 girls went to visit TGC (Tauranga Girls College). We went down there on buses. We went into their gym, and we had a welcome from the TGC Kapa Haka. The deputy principal   Mrs Ferguson had a talk to us about all the opportunities, and the sports and cultural activities we can get involved with. Then we had the head girl of TGC talk to us, her name is Adriana Bird. After we had all the talk, we went into small groups with 3 or 2 Tauranga Girl year 9 students. They showed us around and talked to us about the activities, houses, and other things. My highlight was to seeing year 9's that used to be in Tauranga Intermediate and also seeing their huge swimming pool. I cant wait till next year but i'm a little nervous.

"I was thinking that I could get pocket money every 2 weeks", begged Sasha.
"No, you don't do stuff around the house, why would I give you pocket money?", yelled her dad.

Waimarino shape poem.

Waimarino,

Water park

smelling the fresh air,

kayaking in the freezing cold,

avoiding falling into still river,

shivering as the rain fell upon us,

pulling myself up to the bouncy tramp,

"ahhhhh", as Sattori blobbed me into the icy lake,

running to the next activity to be first in line,

jumping onto the humungous square just sitting on the river.

12 hour relay poem

I took my first step on the freezing cold, green grass.
As I walked towards the Rimu tent, I could hear people cheering on others as they cross the finnish line.
The teams filling up their water bottles, right up to the top.
I walk into the classroom to see the whole house all red and ready to go.
I ran 6 laps in the fun run, until I could feel the pains in my foot.
I helped Miss Campbell and Miss Mackenzie with the hose.
The activities was up next, I took photos and sprayed people with water.
We then headed to 12 hour relay concert.
It was cool but very long to sit on the hard seats.
It was then the end of the day, I had to go home, but I wanted to stay.
