New Zealand Royalty - By Peter
Without a doubt, one of the biggest songs of 2013 (if not the biggest!) is "Royals" by Lorde. We'd be hard-pressed to find someone who hadn't heard the catchy, beat-driven track, but not everyone will be overly familiar with the curly-haired girl behind the catchy tune. She goes by the name Lorde, and she's full of surprises — not least of all, the age she was when she signed with Universal, and which pop star she's just turned down. Click through for five facts about this cool new kid on the block.
1. Ella Yelich O'Connor, better known as Lorde, was born in Devenport, Auckland, New Zealand (just across the pond!) on November 7, 1996. Yes, 1996 — she is just 16 years old. Sure, she might be fast-tracking her way to fame, but she's still in Year 12 at Takapuna Grammar School on Auckland's North Shore. Her dad's a civil engineer, her mum a poet — that'll explain where she gets her incredible songwriting skills from!

My practice write - By Peter
Remember when you were a careless eight-year-old kid riding a bike with your friends, racing each other around the neighborhood? Remember that feeling of absolute freedom as you felt the wind in your hair and the smile it put on your face? I never thought I would feel that way as a grown-up until my friends presented me with a red brand-new bike. At first, I was a bit skeptical about the total idea of commuting by bike. One morning a couple of days later, I completely changed my mind.
I was stuck in a traffic jam and saw in my rear mirror a man in a suit riding a classy bike with his laptop case in one hand and a handlebar in the other. I figured out it would take him about 15 minutes to get to the office while I was still sitting in my car and waiting for the cars in line ahead to move, even if just for an inch. I was always very afraid of being late for my business meetings.
That is when I decided to get on the bike. I haven’t regretted my decision so far. One of the best things about cycling is that the bike is perfect for exercising. Just cycling to and from work or to the shops every day is enough to keep you healthy and happy. Besides, it's incredibly liberating to be able to get anywhere without losing time in traffic jams. Also, don’t forget about the environmental benefits. Cycling helps to reduce air pollution while reducing also traffic congestion and the need for gas.
At some point, I realized that I started to use the bike more often, not only to get to work but also to catch up with friends and to head out for coffee on weekends. I loved this style of traveling because it lets you appreciate what you are seeing around you. You can stop anywhere you want and yet you can cover a lot of distance. That daily distance I rode to work was no longer enough for me. I started riding to the nearest decent mountain bike trails so I could spend the day going up and down hills. I did it because it was fun. Because I enjoyed it.
“I wish I could bike around the world,” I said to myself one day. And then I thought, “Why not?”
OK, I knew I couldn’t ride across the oceans. I came up with the idea to ride across each of the continents, from coast to coast. The more I thought about it, the more excited I became about my plans. If I do this, I will have to thoroughly prepare, I thought. I was also very scared. Would I be able to make it over towering mountains and across burning deserts? What if I got lost somewhere and didn’t know the language?
After a few months of training, I set off. This was hard at first, but soon I realized that everywhere I went people cheered me on when they heard about my journey. The newspaper back home reported on my progress. Once or twice I ran out of money and has to spend a couple of weeks doing odd jobs before I could continue on my way. I never gave up on my idea, and a year and six months later, I found myself pedaling back toward the place where it all began. my journey was over and I was home.
These days, I continue exploring the world with my bike as often as I can. Thanks to my bike, I’ve made countless friends, seen incredible sights, and had unforgettable adventures. I would have missed out on all of that if I hadn’t decided to try biking instead of driving! I guess there is an upside to traffic jams after all!

The return of the iron man
One evening a farmer’s son, a boy called Hogarth, was fishing in a stream that ran down to the sea. It was growing too dark to fish, his hook kept getting caught in the weeds and bushes. So he stopped fishing and came up from the stream and stood listening to the owls in the wood further up the valley, and to the sea behind him. Hush, said the seam. And again, Hush. Hush. Hush. Suddenly he felt a strange feeling. He felt he was being watched. He felt afraid. He turned and looked up the steep field to the top of the high cliff. Behind that skyline was the sheer rocky cliff and the sea. And on that skyline, just above the edge of it, in the dusk, were two green lights. What were two green lights doing at the top of the cliff? Then, as Hogarth watched, a huge dark figure climbed up over the cliff-top. mother grew pale. His little sister began to cry.

The water cycle - By Peter
How The Water Cycle Works by Peter Stowers
The Water Cycle is how water goes around and around through the air, falls to the ground and into rivers, streams and the sea. There are 4 stages called “;evaporation, condensation, precipitation and collection.
Evaporation-Is when the sun temperature come and make the hot the all water will go back to the clouds.
Condensation -Is when you see the clouds getting darker and if the clouds is dark then that means the clouds can’t hold all the water in it can also the water it from into droplets.
Precipitation -As air rises it cools,expands and less ability to hold water vapor
. Air warms as it descends increasing the amount of water vapor it can hold.
Collection -Is when the all waters the fall from sky gathers up and they go to drain then they go to the sea.And the some goes to the stream or river.
But always remember that the the water cycle never finished but it will always restarts again
