21st Century Fairy Tale by Clea

Once upon a time there was a girl and she was a princess. She lived in a beautiful palace that was gold and white. Her room was all pink with a chandelier and a beautiful king sized bed. This girl’s name was Amelia and Amelia was 15 and loved to get dirty and play, and horse ride with one leg on each side (in the kingdom you had to ride side- saddled if you were a girl) and most of all she loved to play football. But when you are a princess you can’t do any of these things. All she was allowed to do was wear pretty dresses and curtsy to everyone she sees. Amelia had to act happy and joyful but for real she was a miserable little girl. One day her parents told her that she was to get married when she was sixteen and that they were to choose who she was going to marry. Amelia didn’t want to get married!! And especially to someone that she didn’t love!! And most of all she didn’t want to have a ball and wear a poufy dress. Her mother had told her that on her birthday she was to have a big ball and dance with 37 men!!! 37!!! Her birthday was in three days so her father quickly phoned up every princess at age 16 in the world and 37 eligible men and on top of it all of the royal people in Europe!! Three days went by so quickly and on the morning of her birth day she woke up and it was a beautiful day. All day she spent her time getting her hair done and make-up on and putting on her dress and pinning her dress up. It was all too girly and all she wanted to do was go and play foot ball. The ball started and she made her entrance. She got about 100 happy birthdays and she danced with all the men. At last she sat down and had some cake. Her parents said that she was to marry Prince Phillip. It turns out that she actually loved Prince Phillip so she was happy. 3 weeks later they got married and at the wedding she wore a beautiful dress and she play football in the dress!! She was so happy and so was everyone else!!
THE END!!!!

Our Topic Homework

We are having a project in geography. We are studying mountains so we had a choice between Mount Elgon and the Ruwenzori. I decided to do Mount Elgon since it sounded much more interesting. We have 5 weeks to finish our project. This is our 2 week for our Topic. I have done about half of my work. Now that I am doing it a bit to fast I keep on editing. The whole point of the project is to learn about mountains and to persuade people to come to the mountain we are working on. I have a different type of laptop so it took some time to print it. I had to print it because my teacher was offering to check our work. She finally managed to check my work on the 06/05/10. She said their were a few mistakes she could not get my updated one because I saved the other work on a flash disk. I am very proud of all the hard work I have done. I am making a poster.

5 Crazy inventions

I am going to tell you the top 5 most crazy inventions. These inventions don’t really exist so I’m going to invent them in my head. (But some of these have been invented)
Invention # 1= Automatic salt pincher- people don’t know how much a pinch of salt is so they use the Automatic salt pincher!
Invention # 2 = Rising Carpet- Your sitting down watching T.V but your feet aren’t comfortable. So you click a button and the carpet rises to the level that your feet are at.
Invention # 3 = Chocolate machines- a machine that puts chocolate into your mouth after you finish typing in what you want.
Invention #4 = Wedge proof underwear- I’m not going to explain this one!
Invention #5= Surf-n-surf= on your surf board you have an attached computer so while your surfing you can surf the web!

Invention Convention Week

In school, this week is Invention Convention Week, so all of our blogs will be related to inventions

I’ve always wished that someone invented ...
1. A teleporting machine that can take you anywhere. For example you want a baguette from France. You say “A baguette shop in France” and then you clap your hands and you are outside a baguette shop in France.
2. A cup that could give you anything. For example you say (in front of the cup) “I want chocolate cake”, then you press a button and chocolate cake comes out.
3. A packet of m&ms that never got over. Never, ever, ever.
4. A tree house with electric gadgets and food machines. The tree house would be the size of 3 KISU buildings,
5. Candy and chocolate that you can keep on eating without getting health problems or getting fat. Instead, the chocolate is even healthy.

Introducing Isha

Hi,
My name is Isha and I’m from India and U.S.A. I go to Kampala International School of Uganda. I have been in Uganda for 9 months now but I still miss U.S. a lot since I was born and lived there all my life. I have only about 4 months till I go to Secondary. I have a very annoying 12 year old brother who is in Year 7. In the first term the best things were the Year 5 and 6 production of Grease since I was Miss Lynch (the principal) and Year 6’s outdoor education trip to Lake Nabugabu. In the 2nd Term my favorite thing was making shelters for Design Technology. My friend Isabelle and I made a Rooftop Playground with a Snack Bar. Now I am in Term 3 and I am looking forward to Invention Convention, Big Arts day, and International Day. I also am looking forward to watching my brother’s performance of Seasons of Love on Thursday evening. I’ll tell you all about it when I’ve watched the play.
