Writing challenge - Geri's game

Yesterday we started to write a script on a little film called Geri's game but the twist was there was no talking so we had to write a script on the film imagining what they would be saying.


Geri was sitting at the local community park enjoying the sun and playing a game of chess.  He was setting up the game when he released he had no one to verse so he compromised and versed himself, but what he didn't know was it would turn out to be a very tense game.

Geri-1 -Are you ready to lose?

Geri-2 - Hahahah funny one.

Geri-1 - your turn.

Geri - slowly walking of to the other side of the table....

Ger-2 - Alright.

Times going by and Geri-1  is losing by alot and the game is getting more and more tense

Geri-1 Fakes a heart attack and when he stands up he quickly spins the board.

Geri-1 - Hahahha

Geri-2 - What the?

Geri-1 makes the king fall over so he ended up winning.

Geri-1 Hahhah hand them over.

Geri-2 - Fine.

Mana horomaka - Kahui art

 During period 3 we were making a art work about our Kahui. If we submitted our art work we would get points towards our house group.  What does Mana Horomaka mean? I think Mana Horomaka means Hornby pride which means we should be proud in being a Hornby student. I am a proud Hornby student because our school is a very good place to come and learn well also having great sport opportunity's.

What was life like in the middle ages?

What was life like in the middle ages?


Interestingly, Life was different for the rich and the poor. The Rich people like the king and queen who lived in castles, ate a lot of food, were clean and healthy and showered everyday. The poor lived on little farms, They lived in small dirty houses , Didn't have enough food for the whole day and hardly showered. This was important because it tells us about how hard it was for the poor and how life sucked if you were poor and also on the other hand if you were rich how good and easy life was.
