John Whiskers: The Easy Part
John Whiskers was no ordinary cat. He was, special. He could do things most cats, couldn’t do. He could feel emotions. But he never really paid much attention to it. Till one day, which is when our story begins.
It was Christmas Eve, the Schweppenheims were preparing for their first Christmas in their new American home. “Dis will be a very good Christmas ya.” “Ya, we have plenty of schnitzels.” And they made sure that they fed their cat before bed. Their cat. Was. Johnathan Tobias Alexander Benjamin Samuel Whiskers. He noticed that there was some milk sitting on the counter. He knew that is was obviously his, because he was their favourite cat (better than Jaquelin at least). But he had to find a way up. But there was an obstacle. Jaquelin. She thought it was hers. So she did the most intelligent thing she had ever done. She meowed at it. Oh, Jaquelin, foolish as always. John Whiskers did the smart thing, he moved the furniture to get to the milk, he climbed and he climbed, but found himself getting smaller and smaller. He finally made it to the milk, but he was too small to get to it. He found himself being taken over by his cat instincts. He jumped in.
As he was falling he could see all nine lives flash before his two very little eyes. Until he landed with a thud. But he didn't just land on his feet. He landed on, buildings. He found himself staring at a small man.
The Reciever of the milk. “Mr Whiskers, I have brought you here to teach you a lesson. You mustn’t steal milk. Get your own milk.” “MEOW!” replied John. He didn’t like being told to do. He looked at the little fat man very angrily. Remember how I told you he had some, skills. He ran to the man, and roundhouse kicked the jolly out of him. “Naughty, John, Naughty!” But John didn’t care. He wanted milk, and he wanted it now. He was so angry he could’ve climbed a Christmas tree. He wrecked the whole town and plus some. Little screams were heard below as he used his mad kung fu skills to get back at the town that did virtually nothing to him. But that was the easy part, next it was the hard part…

Falcon Heavy
Aim: I want to find out how the Space X Falcon Heavy boosters landed themselves
Research: It turns out the boosters were two Falcon 9 first stages. Falcon 9 was the test vehicle for the SpaceX Reusable Launch System Development Program. This is a program created by SpaceX to develop a rocket capable of launching over and over while also landing itself. This takes time and money to build. The research has been immense. The rocket cost over $90,000,000 USD to build. And it hasn't been entirely successful. The Falcon Heavy's side boosters landed perfectly, The main engine, not so much. The rocket failed to land safely and it was back to the drawing board

The names Malone, Bugsy Malone
In Musical theatre, we are learning the musical Bugsy Malone. it is set in 1920 about a man who tries to make his way through a gang war.
- The buildings in the 1920s were very grand and large, such as the Chrysler Building (which by the way was built in 1928)

- Fashion was very showy and glamorous in the 20's, where it was uncommon for a dress to be without sparkles
- In the 1920's women were expected to entertain the men as well as do their chores. Men were, however, unable to legally drink alcohol
- Men would often go to speakeasy's and shows to watch women dance and sing for entertainment

Curiosity Topic - Air New Zealand's New Plane
Recently Air NZ got a new plane from Airbus. Even though it came nearly a year late *coughs*, I'm still excited.

Air New Zealand has 6 more a321neo's and 6 a320neo's on order and they will take up the roles of trans-Tasman and Pacific Island routes

It pretty cool. This is the second Air New Zealand plane to be first delivered with an all-black livery on it. Second after the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner

English film study Post #1
L.O:
Heres what I've done
Hunt For The Wilderpeople
I've learnt a lot about filmmaking, camera angles, movies, placing and stuff like that. It has been a really interesting topic and I hope at some point we'll be able to create our own movies.
