"The Guardians" Chapter 7, by Nina Olivier, Gemma Penning, Andrea White


“What?” I asked, being confused for the thousandth time today “This is from my… Mom?”

“Show her to her room,” Eleanor said “Let her read there.”

The two guards started guiding me through the palace. After a few corridors, and A LOT of stairs the guards stopped at a blood red door. They opened it, revealing a fire themed room. There was a four poster bed with rocks and lava all around the place. There was a dresser, a desk and a door leading to a balcony with an amazing view. It was like three times the size of my bedroom at home, which I had to share with my sister and my dog, Torch. The guards left me alone, so I sat at the desk and started reading. I looked and looked, but all I found was a picture with four teenage girls in it. One looked kind of like me. She had flame red hair, a killer tan and a cheeky look in her eyes. She had the same birthmark as me, in the same place. A girl with elfin ears, green hair tied back and a bow around her stood next to her. She had the same birthmark as Chryselium.  A girl with pale skin, a crown and blue hair stood next to her, she was smiling in the photo, but you could see worry in her eyes. You couldn’t see if she, or the other girl had birthmarks, because their hands were behind their backs. The last girl had long, curly snow white hair, and she also had a devilish look in her eyes. I also found a bit of writing in the book. 

It said:
Deep down in the heart of
Is where one will go higher                                 

"The Guardians" Chapter 6, by Nina Olivier, Gemma Penning, Andrea White

“Oh, the intro’s the intro’s,” said Chryselium.
“Oh, don’t act like you didn’t have a dramatic one,” said Eleanor.
“Wait, there are more of you, I mean us, you know guardians?” I asked.
“Yes, there are four,” Eleanor said.
“Okay who’s the last one? What power does she have? Is your power water?” I asked, my head spinning.
“Wow, one question at a time,” Chryselium said.
“Let me put it this way. The last one is Felicity, she has air as her power, she is also evil. And yes, my power is water,” said Eleanor, all in one blow. “Are all your questions answered,” she said.
“Ugh no!” I said.
“Oh” she said, looking disgusted and disappointed at the same time, “Bring her the book.” In seconds a guard went and came bringing back a small leather book, and he gave it to me. So I opened it to find a note on the first page, to find this:


Dear Alex Flare
I promise this will explain everything.
LOVE MOM

Learning Chinese at my School, by Aamani Chetty


At my school - Pretoria Chinese School - we learn Chinese, or what they call Mandarin. While some other schools learn Russian or French, but at my school we learn about Chinese traditions and how to speak Mandarin. I like the language because it is very different to English and Afrikaans. We write our Chinese class tests but in Grade 5 I will write a Chinese exam which to me is going to be hard but Chinese is not really hard if you pay attention in class it won’t be very hard. y Chinese teacher name is Nichole . Now everyone who's reading this blog knows about the language I like to learn.

Pasta
Pizza
Burgers and chips
Wraps

I like pasta because when my mom makes pasta she makes it creamy and hot when I say hot I mean my mom put chili in the pasta it is still nice but just hot.
I like pizza because it is a circle and my favorite shape is a circle I also like the way the people that make the pizza put on the toppings.
I love burgers and chips because they taste good together even if you don’t eat them together they still taste good.
I like wraps because you can fill the wraps with anything you want and they still taste really nice.
I love curry because it is hot and I like hot things a lot my favorite thing about curry is that it is thick and has a lot of meat.
I love braai because you can braai whatever meat you want and it would be crispy and brown and it tasted really nice.
