Inventions Week

                   *Inventions Week*
 *The most enjoyable part was = Making the movie for our invention called Round Fantastica. Because we were working together and having fun*
*The hardest part was = Working out the profit, because i really didn't get it, and i will ask Mrs Kilkolly, next time*
*If i was to do this again i would =  Do something different, and make the invention, because this time i had no idea how i would make it*
*The most scary part was = Watching all the kids presenting in front of the dragons, because they ask some offending questions*
*The most embarrassing part was = Presenting in front of Mrs Kilkolly and Izzy, because i lost my voice*
*The easiest part = Was making the drawing of our invention, becasue you just have to finds shapes that match it*
*The most breathtaking moment was = When i saw some inventions that actually worked really well, because kids are young and i didn't think most people would know how to make electrical things work*
*The most messiest part was = picking up dirty socks for our trailer, which we deleted*

This is my invention, it is called the round fantastica or the fantastica electrica watering can, me and Grace didn't make it but we made a video talking about it and did a presentation. We learned how hard it actually is to make your own invention.

Pan Grams

                      PanGrams
The People in my group were Kaitlyn, Tamara, Ella. Our sentence was
A quick but lazy fox and pig called Jack and Revin were running through the middle of the big forest.
My own PanGram
Look at the stars at night, their shiny and they zoom across the sky, Brad is my dad, Fatty my pony said hello to me. Me and Dad played games. Jazz played as well. My brother played with the Kite. So quiet it was. I was used to noise anyway. Vicki called us in. That whole night was after x country.

 It was hard to think of all of the letters in the alphabet. We learn’t to go back and check that we had all of the letters. We had a really good team because we started with a basic sentence and it came bigger and bigger and bigger with each other words and finally we got all the letters from the alphabet.

Great job Kaityln - Mrs K

Maths paper planes

              Maths
          Paper Planes
Tuesday to Wednesday, in room 2 we have been doing maths with paper planes. Each one of us got to choose a partner for this activity, There wasn't enough people in the class, so i had to go into a 3 group instead of 2, in this group it was me, Jasmine, and Eshloe. We have made 5 paper planes and after that we had to measure each wing on each plane on how many cm it was. After that everyone had to test there planes in flying, that was definitely my favorite part. Most of our planes went over 7 meters, which was very exciting. Me and Eshloe had a lot of fun flying the planes most of them kept flying and flying in a circle, it was absolutely awesome, Me and Eshloe kept laughing it was so funny. 
Number 1 plane, went 9 meters, and number 5 plane went, 8 meters and 250 cm. 

BookWeek

         BookWeek
Friday the 19th of September 2014 Torbay school had a fun day going on called BookWeek. BookWeek is a day when all kids dress up as their favorite character from their favorite book. I have dressed up as Katniss from the Hunger games. To dress up as her i had to use my big thick navy blue raincoat and use my navy blue jeans. I also had the fun part by making my own homemade bow and arrow. I made a bow out of a good thick curved branch and some very stretchy string. I found some bamboo for the arrows but i didn't bring them because i thought i would get in trouble because they are so dangerous. But never mind i went to school like that and Mrs Kilkolly was very amazed. Later on after some work in the morning the whole school made their way to the hall. When we were all there the teachers told us a little speech saying well done for creating a costume for today. After that they started from the youngest to the oldest kids walking around the hall showing off their dress up with music going with them. Most of the songs us year 5 and 6 didn't think much of most of the songs were a bit babyish. For the rest of the day we had some teachers come over and read their favorite book to us and we did some fun BookWeek activities.

Trip to the Art center

            Trip to the art center
Today Thursday the 4th of September 2014 room 3 and 2 went on a trip to the art center where the wonderful artist Andrew Hall made awesome mini figures, where we went was was Corban's  art center in Henderson. At this art center we had the chance to make our own mini figures out of any of the stuff that was sitting on the table, after having a little talk with Amie we were set free to make what ever we wanted using the stuff on the table, there was 2 tables and 2 mats on the ground covered in old unusable things we got to choose some things that would suit what we wanted to make, i didn't really know what to make, until Grace had an idea for me. Make a flower vass or a pot for a plant. So i made a vass this vass was made out of wood, a pen, cardboard, a pipe, and a little rose key ring to decorate it. The base of this was the cardboard, this cardboard is a turquoise color. I had to curve the cardboard and stick it together, after that i had an idea of sticking wood around the edges, so i had a look for some wood, when i found some i went to the table where the adults helped you with gluing things on. After that my friend Abbie had a little white rose key ring she said she wasn't using it so she let me use it. But before that i had a pipe that i stuck onto a random piece of wood, so i wanted to stick a sign on it, on the way to the table i had a piece of wood to stick on the pipe so i did that. When everything was stuck on i wrote on the wood welcome to our horse lover home.

The most fun part was sticking the wood around the edges because it was exciting to see how it would look with that on it. The most challenging part was curving the cardboard because it wouldn't stay in place. If i was to do this again i would make a horse because i love horses and i know what to do now.

Journal writing my story. Joining new lives

,  

                    Joining new lives
                       Horse story
One dark and stormy night. A young black foal was lost and alone, this colt was named Nakota. Nakota had a shiny black coat that would shine in the night when the moon rised, his mane was black as night, darker than his body. Nakota was just born that night and his mother died by having him, he was all alone wondering in the woods.

                                                  Foxsten
That night the leader of Foxsten was standing on top his favorite hill waiting for danger, every night he would stand there pearing across the forest, making shore no danger passed. Just that second a shake came from the closest bush near him, he turned around and waited, "Who's there? He was waiting there for quite a while so he got inpatient and reared.
   Come out right now, growled Aristotle. Finally little Nakota walked out slowly towards him.
Please don't hert me, i have been through a lot lately, i mean you no harm, mumbled the little foal, Don't hert him Aristotle, he is only a foal, a voice came from no where until a beautiful grey mare walked out of the bushes and stood beside him. Kiowa he doesn't belong here, grumbled Aristotle. Well i don't care what  you say i am going to bring him in to our herd, come on little guy, my name is Kiowa. Kiowa walked away with the little foal Nakota. They walked for 5 miles that was quite tiring. Alright we are finally here, Foxsten, said Kiowa. Are there any foals here, mumbled the foal, yes there are some foals but i wouldn't say hi to them, not yet, answered back Kiowa. 

Why not, Nakota said quietly. Because they probably will be afraid of you or tell the leader. Nakota was not shore of staying here but if Kiowa was nice to him he would probably be alright, Nakota and Kiowa stopped in the middle of the herd and started grazing quietly like everyone else. A lot of foals lifted their heads up slowly and started watching Nakota.
                               The foal group in Foxsten
Hay guys look at that ugly foal, Catrix said smartly, he seems new Widowcure said shyly, guys don't make fun of him he is new so we should make him feel welcome, Weltrin bumped in. Weltrin quietly walked over to the new foal and had a little discussion with him, hi my names Weltrin whats your name? Nakota stood there staring at him while he talked to him. All Nakota did was mumble. I am sorry but what did you say, said Weltrin. "Oh, Ah, my name is Nakota, i am new to this herd. "Well if your new do you want to hang out and be friends. " Ok shore" said Nakota friendly. After that they always hanged out together every day, Catrix got jealous after seeing them all the time hanging out.  
On Thursday Weltrin decided to introduce Nakota to all the other foals, the first group was the waiser foal team, each one of them would have their own team name. The waiser foal team was quite nice to him they started to play some of their own made up games, after that for the refreshments after puffing from running around, the waiser team showed the 2 foals their favorite place to drink and eat.

                 Rasherslend


            Altair, father i am back, said Remi. Remi where have you been, you have been gone for ages, talked back Altair, Oh i have been spying on this new foal named Nakota, Remi said. A new foal ha well that seems interesting, off you go i need to find more about this foal on my own, go now, said Altair. Remi walked away. Altair wanted to find how much use this foal could be to him, so he started to hang around Foxsten because that must be the herd he is in because that is the only herd here.  

                             Foxsten
"That's it, Weltrin shouldn't be hanging out with a looser, i am going to teach him a lesson" said Catrix. Catrix stomped over to Weltrin and Nakota. Catrix sneaked over to Nakota's back,"Hello, how has your days been with Weltrin, said Catrix sarcastically." Come on Nakota, lets go some where, where Catrix won't annoy us" whispered Weltrin.  They trotted away silently to a spot they have never been before. The middle of the forest. 5 years later..........
One day Nakota and Weltrin got them selves ready for an adventure in the middle of the forest where they went when they were just little foals.    
 Weltrin older.Nakota older

After that amazing adventure, they were found by Kiowa,"What are you guys doing here" asked Kiowa. The boys ignored her and just quietly walked away."Why did you ignore her, i did the same because i didn't know why you were doing that" asked Nakota."It is because i need to talk to you alone, about mares" answered back Weltrin."What about mares" said Nakota." Well that we are older we need to decide what mares we should get" Weltrin said quietly." We don't need to get mares, we can wait until one likes us or we can choose one and watch them, see what their attitude is like" said Nakota."Ok fine, we can do what you want instead" Weltrin gave up. The two best friends cantered beautifully over to the grazing grounds. They both stood still in the middle of the group and just peered around for a mare, first one Nakota spotted was a beautiful brown Arabian mare, named Rasha, but Nakota knew her attitude she was to crazy, Next horse Weltrin spotted was a Palomino mare named Stayla.
He stared at her and stared at her until he noticed she was too boring, because all she was doing was grazing. "Ohhhhh" Weltrin grumbled."This is getting so boring, my eyes are going dissy looking at all these mares" Weltrin said loudly. The stallions just about gave up, but when they took a step away there was two beautiful mares, a Palomino and a Bay trotting next to each other towards the grazing grounds. The boys had no idea who they were.  "Should we go and introduce ourselves to those beautiful mares" said Nakota handsomely."Yeah i guess so" answered Weltrin."Hey look at  those two stallions over there they look handsome" whispered Alisa."Nah they look normal to me a normal buckskin and black it seems" said Dakota bored. The mares weren't interested so they walked away normally."Hey wait, i want to introduce myself to you" shouted the boys."Haaa its no use they seem to not be interested" Weltrin said sadly. The mares made their way to a grey mare standing in front of them acting like everyone else."Um hello my name is Alisa and this is my friend Dakota, whats your name" asked Alisa."Ah um hi i am Kiowa, how can i help you, you seem new" talked Kiowa."Kiowa wait, me and Weltrin will help these girls out go ahead and carry on with what you were doing" screamed Nakota. The girls were startled by these determined stallions. Dakota was standing there staring at Nakota show off his amazing body coat, his mane was flowing in the sun like a blanket being set free."Haaaaaaaaaa" mumbled Dakota."Um Dakota, ah, Dakota!" Yelled Alisa."Oh,Ah, um, Yeah" Dakota said confused. 

"Oh, you didn't hear anything Nakota said did you" Shouted Alisa." Ah of course i did he said i am beautiful, right" said Dakota confused again."No he said do you need any help, the complete opposite of what you just said" laughed Alisa. The stallions and mares were talking for ages and finally became friends witch Weltrin and Nakota quite liked. 5 days later after Weltrin & Nakota were making new friends, Weltrin found out that his mother had had a foal."Hay Nakota, guess what" yelled Weltrin."What" Nakota said desperately."I have a new baby brother"Weltrin said excitedly."Wow thats great, where is he" smiled Nakota."He's under the secret tree lying peacefully down with my mother"answered Weltrin. The two stallions galloped excitedly over to the new foal."There he is" shouted Weltrin. The stallions heard an imaginary whistle in their soft ears, quietly as they walked over to the new foal."Mother what is his name" asked Weltrin."Well, lets see he's shy sweet gentle, well i don't know you call him something" Said Weltrin's mother, Annabelle."Lets call him....... Revin, that's a good name for him" Weltrin thought."Well Revin it is" Annabelle said in a low voice. 

Rasherslend

"That horse does not belong here" growled Altair."Father what are you talking about"Remi walked in."R,R,Remi, what happened to you, your a grown up already."Yeah it has been 5 years dad" Laughed Remi."Oh, oh yeah, ha" said Altair. Altair walked away sadly."Why are you sad, dad, you should be happy for me" mumbled Remi."Its just that you were so cute as a colt and now your all grown up"Altair said sadly. Remi walked away feeling sorry for his dad, but he knew his dad would get over it.

Foxsten
One Tuesday at Foxsten, Nakota and Weltrin were having a boring day of watching over the foal Revin, Revin was such a handful, he would wonder around, and take off, and do all sorts of things he shouldn't be doing."Ohhhh gosh this is annoying, i can't stand him any more"Grumbled Nakota."Seriously dude, you've only been here for 27 minutes, you can't be that annoyed" said Weltrin."Yeah, 27 minutes is quite long especially when the colt makes it even worse by having to chase after him all the time, he's like a dog that hasn't been tamed" Nakota said annoyed.Just then a huge shake came into the ground and shaked the colts legs like a an angry person."Ahhhhhhhh" the foal yelled."Quick Nakota grab Revin now" shouted Weltrin. Nakota didn't want to save the foal, he was being too selfish as usual, every time Nakota and Weltrin get into a fight, he always will blame it on someone else."Ahhhh, help me" the foal was screaming to the top of his lungs, but Nakota saved Weltrin instead. The shake stopped finally, but only Weltrin and Nakota were out."Nakota, wheres Revin"asked Weltrin."I grabbed him but then he just let go" Nakota was lying for his own sake. The ground was dead rock, the shake was now gone but left a giant hole in the middle of the grazing grounds. But something else was there, it was poor Revin laying down, looking like he was dead as a stick."Revin"Weltrin shouted out his name and galloped over towards little Revin."Please Revin talk to me"shouted Weltrin. 

"He's dead, he is dead" yelled Weltrin"How could he be dead, you said you helped him" Nakota had nothing to say until little Revin started to move again."Look" said Nakota."What" Weltrin slowly turned towards Revin."Revin, your moving, your alive"shouted Weltrin. Weltrin galloped like a lightning bolt over to Revin, a big hug came straight to Revin. He was puffing loudly, he was so not relaxed."I am so happy your alive" Weltrin said releived. Weltrin picked Revin up and brang him home. Side by side the two brothers walked together, and poor Nakota walked on his own behind. The two brothers kept walking, Suddenly Nakota stopped and walked the complete different direction, he walked through the sticky bushes, half dragging his sad body,"Ahhhhh, Weltrin is never gonna forgive me, mmmmmm" Nakota sobbed. "Nakota what are you doing" A sweet voice like an angel came out of the bushes."Who's there" asked Nakota. A bay mare slowly walked towards him, her head was low down and her body was moving like a soldier."Who are you" Said Nakota."I am Da-ko-ta" She said stop motion."Dakota, that sounds just like my name, Nakota" Nakota said."How cool, i am new to Foxsten, i arrived with my friend a week ago, her name is Alisa she is a" Dakota said."A palomino mare, yeah i saw you and her the other day, great friends you are" Nakota said proudly."Ah yeah, very much" answered Dakota."Anyway, why are you walking away into the woods alone" "I made a terebile mistake, a big shake came from the ground and Weltrin told me to Grab Revin, but i didn't want to because the foal was so annoying, and yeah, I have probably ruined my friendship, with Weltrin" mumbled Nakota.
"Well that doesn't mean you have to run away, you can just fix your friendship, because Weltrin doesn't just give up friendship because that kind of problem"said Dakota. Nakota thought to himself slowly, and wondered if he should actually listen to her, or do what he was going to do at first. He made up his mind and  followed Dakota back to the herd. 
 Rasherslend 
Altair was sooooooo sleepy and miserable he actually left Nakota alone for once."You are doing very well Altair, this is light, maybe this is what you should bring to this herd for once, because right now you are dark" said the unicorn Shiloh. Shiloh was a beautiful unicorn, His mane was long and sparkling, It would swoosh in the wind as he galloped gracefully across the fields.
But for around real horses,he would change his self into a horse looking unicorn.

"Thank you Shiloh, you are right i should stay light in my herd' said Altair."Good job, now go and see Young Remi" Said Shiloh."Remi, ain't young anymore. He is all grown up"said Altair."Never mind, off you go" "Ok"Said Altair. 
Altair walked over to Remi."Hey whats upppppp. Remi" Shouted Altair."Ah, hi, dad"Remi said."How's my boy, feeling better"said Altair."I was always good, so i am feeling better, anyway i need to go my friend is waiting for me" "Oh and who is that" asked Altair."His name is Nakota" Altair's eyes were wide open, he was so surprised Remi was friends with Nakota.

Rapunzel Journey

                   Rapunzel Journey

Today Friday the 28th of August 2014 room 2 to room 7 have been to a Rapunzel show in the hall of Torbay School. Rapunzel show was a rap and singing show play, kind of. There was 3 characters in real life their names were, Ben, Jack, and Jane, these people acted as a whole lot of different people. This play started as the x factor that was really funny. The judge was called Simon cow, that was a cow. Simon Cow was really funny and rude, a lot of times when he wanted to say that he didn't like something he would say, don't mean to be rude but... and really he always said that. Simon cow got really bored of everyone because they all didn't have any talent, until Rapunzel came out and wanted to sing the song yellow. He started to read a paper while she was singing but instead of reading the paper he lifted his head out in a surprised look and decided Rapunzel's performance was the best of the night. He wanted her to sign a contract and keep singing songs, but songs she wouldn't like but she would have to sing it anyway, her father wanted her to sign it so she could win $100,00 but she didn't so one day he tricked her and used her voice. My favorite part was the start at the x factor.  

Maths challenge

Today Friday 15th of August 2014 we have been doing a math challenge our class was set into 6 groups of 3 or 4 and then we got to name our team my team was called the FoxyCats because Ella was in our group and she likes cats and i like foxes Mathew and Hendrix were in our team as-well.

This math challenge had 20 challenges that were quite hard first we did easy ones and then it got harder and harder, as it got harder we had sheets with mazes on them as we completed the mazes we had to answer some questions on the bottom and that was alright. But then it got serious with a very long and mixing up sheet with 32 questions i think, and me and Ella didn't really get it until it to the 18th question we started to get the hang of it, so there was these numbers and we had to try to add them together i think and then we had answer what they were called like perfect or a prime and some other names i don't remember, but then the most annoying part when we were done and brang it to Mrs Kilkolly and then she couldn't read it and we got some wrong so we had to start it all over again on another copy of that sheet OHHHH! that was annoying and we came 6th out of 6 groups but never mind the prize was a lolly and i didn't feel like the taste of a lolly but never mind at least we learned some new things thats what math challenges are for.

My wearable art journey

     My wearable art journey

Today Isabella and Kaitlyn have been working on our wearable art.
We created the base of our dress and stuck newspaper all over the dress.
Also we made a necklace out of string and a bell.
Our original plan did not work, we changed our costume and now it looks great.
We found out that our plan did not work.
We wondered if our dress would fit. I wondered how i could tie the dress on.
The most challenging was trying to stick everything to the dress. 
Now we need to start creating our hat gloves and shoes, and the back of the dress.
Tomorrow we will start working on the hat and gloves.
Isabella thinks that the most fun part was to wear the dress. Kaitlyn thinks the most fun part was making the skirt.

Tuesday 12th August 2014
This is my design so far. Today i need to work on bringing a coat hanger.

• 
  I need to work on the shoes.
• The gloves.
• The hat.
• The Te-shirt needs more detail.
• And last of all we might start on coloring the skirt.
• Fixing up the Te-shirt and maybe the skirt. 

Wednesday 13th August 2014

Yesterday Isabella and I started to change our dress again. We took the Te-shirt off and started it again, I brang some dark pink wallpaper and we stuck that onto another plastic bag but before we actually did that i cut out a flame picture in the middle of the wallpaper and then stuck a peace of golden holy plastic paper now it looks like fire on the Te-shirt. While Isabella worked on the fabric flowers i started working on the hat, the hat now has a plastic broken purple necklace stuck on to the sides and then i stuck a red feather to the side like fire. When Isabella finished the flowers she helped me out on stabbing a whole on the side so we could put a hair clip in through the whole so it could clip into our hair and not fall off. And thats mostly all we did for yesterday and now we will start something else today. 
Thursday 14th August 2014
Yesterday we completed the hat and Te-shirt. 
We had difficulty with sticking all the fans to the dress in time. 
We found out that making earrings wouldn't work in time.
Working in a group was quite fun because i got more help and ideas.
My outfit reflects the element fire because we have bits puffing out like fire and also we have a cut out picture of fire in the middle of the Te-shirt.

My trip to Tauranga

My trip to Tauranga

On Sunday my lovely mum took me for an 1 hour drive to KatiKati in Tauranga. Mum and i met my Nana in the L&P cafe, while we were there i had some breakfast, “IT WAS DELICIOUS” i said after chomping every last mouthful. It was just a bacon and egg bun also a vanilla milkshake but the buns bacon was nicely chewy. The milkshake was sweet and bubbly.

So i drank every last mouthful.

After that delicious breakfast mum,Nana and i trodded outside and started bringing my heavy bags out of mum’s car and into Nana’s flash new car, mum said sarcastically”Hey check this out how surprising that Nana’s car is outside of the car park, i had no idea what mum was talking about, but then she wispered in my ear and told me that Nana always parks her car outside of the car park because she’s worried her car will get scratched.

HA!HA! i shouted out loud in laughter. “That’s hilarious”. “Ok thats enough Nana said in a kind voice cause of course she is never angry, now it was time to travel to Tauranga with Nana and i had a wonderful time.

Term 2

                          Term 2
Term 2 was a great term we had lots of things that were fun first this was one of them Squash it was so cool and i now know how to play it and man its cool how to play squash is first you have a buddy and each one of you have a racket and one of you have a ball and when your ready the person who has the ball hits it with his racket and when it hits the wall and when it does a bounce on the ground the other person hits with his racket and it keeps going on until someone hits the ball out of bounds or hits it to high their out and the other person wins.

Art
Art in room 2 was very exciting we learned about a new artist named Hundertwasser, we learned about Hundertwasser and we got to do our own picture in Hundertwasser style but we did a sustainability picture i did a picture of plants and forest, Hundertwasser was born on the 15th of December 1928.


Music lessons
We have also had music lessons that were fun and interesting, in the music lessons we got to here very old songs that we haven't heard that were quite funny watching and other times we learned to play the te rakau sticks that were very fun and we did one only once was playing instruments to a random beat.

Jamie Oliver day
Jamie Oliver day was quite fun, on Jamie Oliver day we were in teams of our table groups each one of us at least had to bring some ingredients i had to bring 2 carrots and 2 tea spoons and that was easy for me because i have horses and i have to give them carrots most of the time but then when i got home we ran out so we had to get some in the morning before school but that didn't work out like we expected

Mrs Mc-Hugh

Mrs Mc-Hugh 
In Music my learning was about how to use new instruments and learning new music.
I found out how interesting music can be and how fun it can be to learn.
I wondered what some songs were about.
The most difficult thing was playing the drums to a random beat.
Now i know how to play different instruments.
My next step is playing the drums maybe.
The most fun part was listening to new songs that were quite funny.

At Torbay school Tuesday 1st of June 2014 we went to lactic turkey that is a day when we get  into groups of 4 or 3 and we have a race like the amazing race Torbay school was up against different kinds of schools lactic turkey was done at Long bay  beach, in lactic turkey we had a map in each group and a number pinned on our te-shirt there was a whole lot of activities we had to do up and down mountains and climbing trees and all sorts of stuff that puffed us out. At Lactic turkey we did activities that included Sustainability like first of this is one of them we saw pest animals like possums, weesles, and more these animals are pests that kill our native birds and are intruders at farms by eating chicken eggs and more stuff that people wouldn't want to eat.

Another activity was just learning how to take a plant out of its pot without losing parts of it, and i went very well doing it, in my group i was not very happy with it because i had no girls only Tygan, Yuji, and Oscar and... Oscars father. Never mind i still had fun, for lunch i sat with my friends Alicia and Emily and we had a lot of laughing going on and that was the best part sitting with them. In Lactic turkey Oscars father promised us that if we started running well for our team to win we would be rewarded with a zombie chew lolly but we couldn't spread out to much other wise we would loose 20 points and that wouldn't be good would it.

These zombie chews made the boys act like naughty zombies but i have to agree i liked them as well but i didn't act like a zombie because i am a very good behaved young girl, when we got back to school i was re-leaved that we were there my legs were killing me  and i ran out of water but i had a great day even though we didn't win,YAY! WHAT A GREAT DAY.

Capacity

                               Capacity 
Capacity means weight something can hold or shape and size.
In class today Friday 27th of June 2014 we have been learning about Capacity we have been in table groups that means we've been with the same people that we sit with on our tables all the time, someone had to go and run to a box of containers and cups you had a chance of choosing 5 different containers and when you bring them to your table you have 3 chances putting one back and getting a different
                                                     one.

There are 4 herds the Casteils, the lost boys, Sevenswell, and the sheerins herd and thats where Avanshee and Avila live. The lost boys are a 4 horse team their leader is called Kendant, then theres Phoenix, Weltrin, and Catrix. In the Casteils their leader is Erebus and he has a daughter Avalon and also her brother Atari

This is Avanshee

Hi my name is Kaitlyn and i am a horse lover in my life i have a whole collection of horse toys named schleichs, breyers, safaris, and collects i play with these but i also make videos with them if you go on the internet type in breyer horse movie or schliech horse movie these days i have been writing scripts for my own schliech movie i have to write the story and then write what the horse is saying and also you have to get used to the horses names. This movie is going to be called which is my home it is going to be about a filly called Avanshee and her sister named Avila and she is the princess but Tarashee her father isn't shore about keeping Avanshee cause she is wild and not a horse for the castle and one night she couldn't get to sleep so she sneaked into Hemrils room and stole his sword so she could protect herself if there was danger.
This is Lalit
She started walking in the forest and couldn't find one thing to do, then she heard a shake in the bushes and then poked out a hoof and then the horses whole body came out it was weltrin from the lost boys and then they started talking and Avanshee didn't get anything what weltrin was talking about.
There are 4 herds the sheerins herd, the casteils,the lost boys, and sevenswell, The leader of the sheerins herd was named Tarashee and his mate Charisma. The leader of the casteils name was Erebus and the future king was named Lalit and his mother Flaira. The leader of the lost boys name is Kendant. And last of all the leader of Sevenswell is named Colorado. In total of my collection is 63 plus 8 breyers so mostly out of all horses i have 71. Probably my best model out of all little horses is Fearim and Symphony.

So exactly i have been writing scripts for the movie witch is my home but ... I have been making a movie with my friend Mia already it is called danger around each year. We are on episode 2 now we have started working on it since Saturday and have kept working on it till Sunday. On Sunday we had a show but after that in the afternoon Mia came over to my place and we worked on episode 2, we did it till night time and her tablet finally ran out of battery and it was to dark to do any more of the video. This movie has 3 herds The Alisto herd, Vine swane herd, and the deep lake herd. The Alisto's herds leader is named Comanche, Comanche's herd has 11 horses. The Vine Swane herds leader is Erebus and they have only 9 horses in their herd. The Deep Lake herd is secret that no horse knows about their leader is a mare this time and her name is Sif they have over 10 horses in their herd. Stavros is from the Alisto's herd and one day he wondered off outside of the boundary around the herd, his friend knew and told the foal sitter, the foal sitter said to go bring him back to the Alisto herd, but when the little foal found him the conversation turned into a argument and Stavros refused to go back to the herd so he ran away.
Foal-sitterStavros
As he started adventuring he started to think where he could stay and then Sif came into his mind, Sif  is a mare that ran away from her old home, everyone says she is a legend and she watches all the herds and make shore that everyone is in peace and happiness. Sif was having a boring old day and when Stavros found her he asked if he could stay with her, she said yes but she had to try him out tomorrow to make shore he was good enough to stay with her. The next day he visited the Deep Lake herd that he has never heard of before in his life that day was average because he met the little team of foals hanging out and Jack was the leader it seams most of them were friends of his but also kind of slaves, Stavros came walking in to the group Jack called him ugly but his friend Weltrin didn't agree so he left the foal team for the day to hang out with Stavros. And that is when our battery ended and we started to pack up all the horses. It was very dark so we were worried we might not bring in every horse, after packing up we were most shore we didn't leave any outside. But when it was morning i had a little search around on the lawn and near the tree where we took the video, most surprising i found my little foal Angus on the lawn her was wet but he survived thank goodness for that.

Tuesday 16th September 2014
Hi guys, all around the world or friends at school, Me and Mia finally finished episode 2, until we watched it there was no sound or voice, so that means we are going to have to make episode 1 to 2 all over again, sorry, that sucks because me and Mia were so ready for getting it going on the internet every episode we make, but that isn't gonna happen as soon as i thought. But anyway, me and Mia are thinking of making a breyer movie as well, our breyer movie isn't going to be as big as danger around each year or which is my home, because i only have 8 breyers. But anyway it is going to happen if the voice works, if it doesn't we might have to use my phone that can not add music and is pretty dum about skipping, so yeah but anyway don't forget because it will come it just might take a while.
