The unexpected by Mila


"Every night on holloween a monster roams the school looking for the bathroom!" Said Joshua. "Okay how about this."said Emma . "Every year Santa comes to town but he's not the only one, there also lives the dark and scary grinch he hurts the good and leaves the bad and he gives candy to all that's sad."oh please, how about this. Once a year all you can hear is ROAR!

.....But that wasn't the kids it was real! The kids shook with fear well the boys did, but not Emma she was braver than all 6 of the boys.

Well it was the scariest night of the year so what if the story's are (gulp) real! This story have been told so many times what if they were telling the truth!"wait, who." Oh right they can here me. Well there are the ghosts who lived in this house they loved to tell story's of scary stuff like themselves. "Wait so the story's are truly real!" Said Tim . But remember that the monster looks for the bathroom!

Wait what's that noise? (HO,ho,ho, merry Halloween!) said Santa the grinch is real too!  Know one knows what happened next.

Bring your own device

This year the whole Totara team was allowed to bring their own device for learning. The teachers decided to do this because they thought it would help the children work better and give them an advantage to learning.  Everyone started bringing in devices by the second week, and work seemed so much easier. By the third week almost half of the Totara team had devices and the kids who didn't used iPads and laptops. Everything was much easier especially since we had the new furniture. It was much easier because we can just quickly type down everything we needed to and just send it to our teachers, all so we wouldn't have to wait for the laptops and iPads. we can all so learn about internet safety and we can make slides for presentations or i movie.
