Kiwi Birds

It’s not that they are all small.The smallest is the little spotted kiwi and it is smaller then a rugby ball.
The biggest kiwi is about 45 cm tall and as big a rugby ball.
Female kiwis are larger then male kiwis.
The biggest kiwi is about 45cm tall. It is about as big as a rugby ball. kiwis are or can grow to a certain size like 45cm of height. But as you must know that the kiwis name is The Great Spotted kiwi.
I suppose people wouldn’t call kiwis bright coloured, they only have brown rough plumage. A kiwi skin is so rough that it is not as smooth as another birds. Other birds have beautiful plumage, but kiwis don’t they only have brown dull plain feathers. The most ridiculous thing is their bill.
Did you know that a kiwi is a flightless bird. Well many people think that kiwis have no wings, but they do, they hide underneath there brown plain plumage.They also have a curved claw at the end of their wing. If a kiwi was meant to fly they will need to have a tail.
Did you know kiwis use their legs for digging their borrows and running away from their preys.
kiwis have strong island legs and feet. They can also
out run a average person.
Female kiwis lay their eggs in the borrows, the father kiwi sits on the eggs for 2 and half months. It takes 3 days for the baby kiwi to hatch, when the baby kiwi comes out it cuddles up to it’s fathers plumage. As soon as the kiwi is about 6 months old it can leave it’s borrow and travels by it’s own.
Most birds can glide through the air kiwis can’t. Some birds have nice coloured feathers, but kiwis don’t. There is even a birds that can swim under ice cold water kiwis can’t do that.
And there you have it. How could you resist a big fat, strong rugby player legged, flightless bird, which is ugly and drab?
If kiwis aren’t cool, then I don’t no what is!

Our School Camp
My group traveled by car and van to rock climbing.My best rockclimbing wall was the king kong
wall because it was very easy for me to climb.I can tell you now that there was another wall that
was easy too, because it was just like a lader but it had a lader on both sides of the wall. Ionly climbed on one side of the wall.
"Yeah" I shouted we are going to do camp cooking.Camp cooking was one ofmy best highlights at camp too.When the camp cooking teacher arrvied we set of to do cooking. The nice teacher said that we can try some of the food we made.When we set of back to our teacher we all said thank you.Then the she said that we "we arent finshed yet" we were going to make marshmallow cookies.
On the last day of camp kindness all of the campers went to Swimarama and had a wandeful swim.When my group went on the hydry slidet was 4th in line to go down and when I went down I feared the slide because it was so darkin their. I was screaming to get out,theni saw light and stopped screaming. When I was down I got out and started to laugh.I said to myself " let's do it again".
When I got home I walked in the door tired and sleepy.I sat on my bed just about to close my eyes and I heard "Aneisha" come here tell me about what happend at camp , I said my best highlight was rockclimbing, but it was all good.

Swimming in the Holidays- by Aneisha
Have you ever been up north? I have it is so cool up there I didn’t want to get out.
we went to a place my uncles call it the waterhole. It is cool because you can’t tough the ground. Me and my sister jumped off a cliff that was high from the water.
