wet windy sailing by Harry Quinn

It was wet and cold as I sailed out to sea.
The birds seemed to be flying just above me.
The waves were rough, the sea spray strong, I knew what I was doing was very wrong.
I sailed on into the night, moving fast from the light.
My arms were eching from holding the rope tight.
My boat bounced around as we head out of sight.
I look overboard and I'm surprised to see a grey fin swimming close to me.
My heart does a shudder as I turn my rudder to head back to the bay, which looks so far away.
The wind whips up and pushes me through, the sea looks a horrible blue.
I see the land sparkling in the dull night light, and wish I was in my bed tucked up tight.
The fin speeds past, but leads the way right up into the bay.
I jump on out and leave my boat floating on the waves, I rush away from the bay leaving behind the frightful day.

my awesome week-end

On friday I went to the Phoenix game at the stadium. The game was good and they drew 3 each.We came home very late. On Saturday I played in the bush with Clara and after awhile we biked down to the school. We saw other friends at the school.Clara and I then got ready for the 'Mid-night madness' which started at 7.00. We ran from school to the Muritai track entrance and ran to the top of Butterfly-creek, coming out at Kowhai Street. We needed torch's attached to our heads and had to be very careful not to slip in the mud. It was exciting to have people rushing past, all sliding in the mud. We ran down the alley -way and onto the waterfront, which was pitch black and quite scary. We made our way back to school with everyone else. I was very tired at the end, but really enjoyed it.

Harry's Scary House, Harry Q

Harry’s scary house. By Harry Quinn


When I walked up to the house ,I had a shiver down my spine as I entered through the rusty gate, I saw grave stones and then I saw bats flying and the wind howling through the trees. The front steps were moldy and very slippery and I knocked on the door.
A mystery person opened the door and said ‘hello’ do you want a cup of tea? I was shocked to hear an ordinary person, living in such a scary house.

We have so much fun in Room 23.
From art to writing to unicycling,
buddies to just being plain silly
we do everything.
