Marshmallow

Down by the lake on a cold autumn night I run around the woods to find the perfect piece of wood to shove my marshmallow on, then I hear screaming coming from the west of the woods. It was like something had attacked them and then I look around and find it. I grab it and run back to the flame. I feel like someones watching me and I plant my body on the log, I grab a marshmallow and put it on the stick. The crackling of the fire cooks the marshmallow. When I turn around I see two huge green eyes as green as the grass and a black body as black as the night sky. There was blood as red as a heart dripping from the creatures mouth. I turn and look at the fire, its getting bigger and brighter as I keep looking. I run into my tent and grab my blanket the monster rips my tent and I hide in my sleeping bag. I peek above the tip of it and then I see the monster, I quickly run and grab my blanket. I throw it over the creature and he gets tangled up in the violet and white striped blanket. Then he rips the blanket with his teeth, as sharp as knives. I then throw twigs and big sticks at the creature and it is still not hurt. I suddenly feel sorry for the creature, and I stop throwing sticks at it. I pick up the bag of marshmallows and I give it one. It nudges my hand and I get another one. I then put my hand out and pat it. The sun was rising and I brought the creature into the light and I see that it was a dragon. He shows a sign that he wants me to jump on his back he starts to flap his wings and I hold on tightly I now knew that we would be best friends forever.

Ski trip - 5 mins

Its cold and I am hot, I have a thermal, jersey, jacket and a t-shirt. The snow is cold and when I touch it, it feels like I have jumped into the arctic ocean, I come down the slope and see the other people doing the jumps and spinning around on their skis. I come down the slope as fast as I can with the wind in my face and the snow on the ground, then I do a massive turn and do it all the way down the slope and then... I stop.

Kiwi Kids News - Rhino's on the move.

RHINO'S ON THE MOVE

Just over 500 rhino's are being moved from Kruger national Park to Botswana and Zambia. Moving the animals to places like Botswana will help protect them more because their are bigger places that are harder to get to so the poachers won't be able to get to the rhinos

They are doing this because there are poachers in that area that are trying to get the rhinos horns to make medicines and sell them for money. More than 630 rhinos have been killed this year and 400 in Kruger alone.

However moving more that 500 rhinos is not easy, because they have to track down the rhinos and bring them under control before they can be moved it will cost more than $2000NZD and that is allot in South Africa.
