This week and last week in our literacy groups we have been reading a book called Hushed. It has 2 parts and it is a really good story. It's about a boy called Tre who's Mum and Dad got hushed, which means that the spark inside of them has been removed and they have no emotion and not a lot of memory, so he got sent to a new town. He went to his classroom and has to build a plain boring tower while struggling to fit in. Tre moved from Region G which is a little village that everyone thinks is really bad but it's actually beautiful with the blooming flowers and one of a kind wind chimes that his Mum makes. In his classroom, there is a girl called Muse who has been Hushed and all she does is sit and stare. Tre goes over to her and see's 1 threatening word. RUN. He and Muse run away on an adventure trying to find Region G and Tre's parents but it all takes a big turn. If you wanna know what happens next go read the book. I give it a 4 out of 5 because it was very interesting but a little boring but it was good and go read it now. Also one of my tasks was to write part 3 and it was really fun so yeah.
Haere Ra.
Bella.

My hometown Greymouth
Here in Greymouth, we have a pretty small town. Our weather goes back and forth and we have rain and shine. Our population is only about 9,700. Mawheranui is the Maori name for Greymouth. I think my town is really special because we have a smallish town and we have lots of activities and I'm happy to say Greymouth is where I live.
