Samoa's 1st and 2nd an d 3rd paragraph about the pig.
It was midday and the sun rose high over the farm. Dusty settled into her eleventh mud- wallow. Life was good for Dusty. She had a rosy pink snout, that twitched as she sniffed the delicious vegetables. Far, far away, Mrs Latu Taylor, the owner, could see Dusty’s small eyes that were sharp and inquisitive. Patches of coarse hair stuck out from her face in tufts. Dusty was so nosy by nature, always wanting to know what was going on around her.
The farm was down a long, muddy track, far away from the main highway. Mrs Latu Taylor was tidy - she packed the bales of hay that rested in a neat array. The water tanks stood to attention like three rotund guards. Dusty was rolling down the hills and she got caught in the long shadows of the late afternoon sun. The old barn was home, and it was comforting, cosy and always busy with its inhabitants. For nearly one hundred years, the farm had been nestled on the side of the hill next to the babbling creek.
As she noticed that she was in the water Dusty was worried concentration, that made dusty, frowned in earnest. Her hooves tried to tread, in the water but he could hardly stay afloat! Dusty’s Turquoise of the water, lapped over her snout. When She Panicking as she appeared, unable to close the gap to land.

My skate boarder description
“Is that even possible?” I wondered, as I gazed in awe at the fearless skater. When I saw his face it was stern concentration, that caused the skater to frown. He shifted his weight, allowing for the board to rotate in mid-air. His body is silhouetted against the soft pink dusk sky. As I saw him he was like a heat haze that covered the city in a steamy blanket, when it was turning the hills to a pastel mauve.

Samoa's old lady description.
As I watched the woman crouch down, I could see she was as ancient as the universe. Staring at her, I could see deep channels of time, etched into a wizened surface. She had cracked lips that furled around gums, where teeth once stood. I saw her keen eyes alight with mischievous youth. She had a rich indigo velvet scarf, folded carefully to frame her face. When I saw her eating I could see her struggling to chew her food because she had no teeth.

This is my Commonwealth writing
The commonwealth games are a sporting event between 71 countries around the world. They are similar to the Olympics because they play all sort of sport. They have an opening and a closing ceremony and there was a man that was holding an torch that lit up. There are 17 sports in the commonwealth games. There are 10 cores the cores mean that they play every game and they select 7 people to choose 7 sport like judo, shooting, shot put, netball, rugby, running, hockey. In July 2014 it is held in Scotland and in 2015 it is going to held in Samoa.
Valerie Adams did a tremendous hurl to win the gold medal. Valerie Adams had the world record for the shot put and she won all the gold medal for New Zealand. Usain Bolt is a tremendous runner. Usain Bolt won all the gold medal for Jamaica.

Samoa milk for school
Fonterra Milk for school is a programme for school children to get milk every day at school. Each week, a milk truck comes to the school with boxes of milk which get put into classroom. Every student gets a carton of milk to drink. Once you have drunk it dry, you need to fold it flat it up and put it in the recycling bin.
The first reason why milk is important to drink is that it keeps you hydrated. It gives you energy to play and learn. The calcium in the milk helps to make you bones and teeth strong, which is important so you don’t break a lot of bones.
It is very fun having milk at school it keeps you focused on what you a learning in class time and it keeps you some energy.
