———————-

-SUSPECT A

 Inspector: Suspect A, Where were you when
Nancy got murdered?

Emily: I was sitting on the Assembly stage watching everyone dance and go crazy.

Inspector: Can anyone confirm that?

Emily: Yes! I have an eye witness… Celia from S23P!! She was at the disco! She was watching me while I was near the DJ!!! 

** It was then proven that Emily was innocent, due to the fact that she had been sitting the whole time at the disco.  

SUSPECT B

Inspector: Where were you when
Nancy was murdered?

Sarah: With Marcella. We were talking near the DJ. Emily was there.

Inspector: Any Proof?

 Sarah: I was sitting on the stage. The DJ was goofing around and we had to take over.

**Sarah along with Marcella and Carmen were also just sitting and taking over the DJ.

SUSPECT E

 Inspector: Where were you when
Nancy got murdered?

Gloria: I was with my friend. Hey, why are you questioning me for? I wasn’t near
Nancy and I was hangin’ around.

** This happened to be true. Not only her friends can confirm her story but the people around her. Suspect A, B, C, and D also stated that she wasn’t anywhere near
Nancy.

So, who is the murderer? How was
Nancy killed (she was proven to be perfectly healthy, apart from the fact that she is dead.)? Why was she killed? Was it Suicide?

Stay tuned for more — Tales of terror!!!!!!  (actually, the end. I was too lazy to think of an explanation)

Did you know it cost $220 ??!!

Posted by Nancy on 9th November 2007

Expensive, isn’t it? But, what is IT?? Well, IT is the greatest thing to happen to the stage 3 students and IT is sooooo great it cost THAT 220 Australian dollars… IT is stage 3 camp!!! We stay at camp for 3 days and two nights, yes!, three days of nothing but fun!! We had archery - shooting targets with a bow and arrow, River ride - having a speed-boat ride and looking around, Pool rafting - building a little raft in the pools and having a race, Canoeing - go canoeing (obviously), indoors rock climbing - climbing little boulders on a wall, Christian discovery - learning about God, and the best of all - The water-slide!!!

We had 4 instructors telling us what to do, Earl, Tim, Rachelle and Angelo. Earl and Tim keeps on getting into fights (not personal ones though) and are full of jokes.  The worst part of camp is when we are leaving :-(   . The bus trip back wasn’t much fun, we got to listen to the radio (2day FM ) and I fell asleep. I miss camp sooooo much :’-(

We had two lessons already. The first session, we had Kylie helping us. We did experiments about potato calculators, dissolving sugar crystals, swinging pendulums and checking stomach gasses.

During our second session, we did chemical science with Prue. My group did something about electricity, detergent and food colouring, made clear slime, dried up water and loaads more. There were so much that the group I was with didn’t get the chance to finish every activity. The best was  the slime part because we get to keep it. You can stretch it, bounce it and do loads of things with it!

 I just can’t wait ’till the next CSIRO session!!!

Anzac Day

Posted by Nancy on 3rd May 2007

On the 25th of April, Anzac day occurs. Anzac day is to remind us about the courage and the sacrifice the Australian and New Zealand soldiers made at war. ANZAC stands for Australian New Zealand Army Corp and is probably one of Australia’s most important national occasions. The Anzacs fought in gallipoli (in Turkey) and many Australian soldiers were killed.

On Anzac day, which is a public holiday in most parts in Australia and New Zealand, people brings flowers and such to memorials or graves to those soldiers. It is traditional that we turn and face west, to where the sun sets, and have a one-minute silence remembering them or thanking them (in your mind).

lest we forget..

ANZAC Letter

Posted by Nancy on 3rd May 2007

A Letter to Home…

25Th April 1915

To my dear Family.

The invasion to the Turks was impossible from the very beginning; some of our people was killed before they even got out of the boat. If soldiers was ordered to swim to shore, none of us would be shot but we would’ve be having our funerals at the bottom of the ocean due to the heavy load. Many of us would just drown.

The Turkish army is guarding the top of the cliffs and shoots down on us as if they are hunting rabbits. None of us have made it to the tops of the cliffs. We aren’t enough to even be a hindrance to them.

This plan was a gamble; the money was just a lure and a lie, it would probably be impossible to get the money for we would be dead. It was a complete lie saying that the job would be done easily. Back on the boat, I could tell that my dear friend, Jack Simpson, as he preferred to be called, was as nervous as I was. I knew that the guns meant something dangerous.

The sound gun shots are deafening and the smell of the corpses of our soldiers stink is worse than the toilet we had out in the yard. Our soldiers are decreasing, and Jack Simpson, now caled the bravest of the brave, who had saved my life with his donkey countless times, was shot and now lie in the front gates of heaven. He was not only a hero, but my friend aswell.

This may be my last letter for you for I can be shot dead any second on a surprise attack. I send my love for you and I would give anything to be back at my old lifestyle at the peaceful country side again…

C.M Brogins.

Harmony Day Poem

Posted by Nancy on 30th April 2007

On Harmony day, we show we care,
we dress in orange and yellow.
On Harmony day, we all share,
to prove we’re each other’s fellow.

On Harmony day, we join hand-to-hand,
and look towards the sun.
On Harmony day, we acknowlege our land,
and we shall have nothing but fun.

On Harmony day, we are all friends,
no-one should have dismay.
On Harmony day, hatred will end,
well, that’s all I have to say.

P.S, Harmony day was ages ago, as I said, I’m a bit slow on my posts…
