Yesterday the Whole school raised $9000 went to Kyle Park which is just across the street and had a "fun run." Really it's just a heart attack run. So technically we just ran and dodged a few obstacles. Which is not bad for a school of kids. Anyways I shall get to the point. We waited for the year 6 kids, then I ran with the year 5's because obviously I am a year 5. Then after all the year 5's went the year 4's, and so on. So that's probably it. I think i've covered everything. Bye!

Hulk's (Not So) Day Off
Alive
Alive
Toby had thought the art gallery a boring place to visit. In fact, he had said as much to his mum as he trudged up the grand, stone steps to the entrance an hour earlier. “Mummmmm” he had complained, “I hate coming here. The animals never dooooo anything.”
Toby was now thinking he had been wrong. His jaw dropped and he stared in utter disbelief at the sight in front of him, pointing as water cascaded onto the floorboards from the painting containing a herd of elephants stampeding through the Ganges river. Toby could not believe his eyes: this trip was starting to get interesting…
Toby heard a loud noise coming from the other room. He rushed over and there was a whole army pointing their guns at another army. Another loud noise. He ran over past the elephant and saw… The Infinity Gauntlet. The elephant had fully stepped out of the picture and chaos was just spreading everywhere. Toby’s mum yelled out to him. “Stop being so loud in there!” Toby was about to yell back at her but he didn’t want to get in trouble.
Everything was coming alive. Even the Mona Lisa!! Things were getting out of hand really fast. It was really loud so Toby’s mum came in to scold him but as soon as she saw all of it… She screamed. LOUDLY. She ran back out and took Toby by the hand and ran off. The elephant smashed through the door and chased them. There were even a few explosions. A Police Air Support Chopper was hovering over the art gallery. Toby and his mum were already in the car, zooming home. When they got home, Toby’s mum raced over to the T.V, turned it on, closed all the windows and locked all the doors. “Mum, what the heck is going on??” “Well an elephant coming out of painting, that's what!” Toby heard another explosion. He threw himself into his room and grabbed his walkie-talkie. “James, do you have any idea what the heck is going on?” “Well no… all I know is that an elephant came out of a painting. That is pure weirdness.” Toby switched the walkie-talkie off.
He thought he would just jump outta his window. And of course that’s exactly what he did. The art gallery wasn’t too far from his house. He started to run towards it. Toby arrived at the art gallery. The elephant was long gone, the army had… well, finished their business and all soldiers lay on the floor, probably dead.
After he got back home his mother was painting a picture of some origami. As soon as he saw the painting it came alive. Toby’s mum watched in shock. After that everything after that was a blur. Monkeys were coming alive, doves, PEOPLE everything. Man even planets. (Life-sized not included) Toby felt really weird and in charge.
Toby's mum was in shock. She dialled 911 and the cops came in no-time. There was even a cool painting called Coronavirus or Covid-19 for short. When he saw the painting the Covid-19 came to life and entered one of the po-pos and he started coughing straight away. Toby and his mum stepped back. Toby’s mum called the ambulance as well.
Soon almost everybody in Toby’s town was outside. They were yelling at the cops… But not Toby and his Mum. The cops pushed through everyone in the house and froze outside. They were doomed. A brick came smashing through the window and there was a note tied to it. The cop picked it up and Toby tried to read it. All he could make out was “Ome side you cklehead” He used his detective skills and figured out that it said “Come outside you knucklehead” A lot of the people had pitchforks and torches, so he knew it was gonna get rough.
Toby and his mum stayed in their rooms and the cop without the Covid-19 started moving towards the front door. That made Toby wonder. “Where is the cop with the Covid-19?” He was soon found lying on the floor, maybe dead. Maybe. Toby’s mum shrieked. There was another painting lying on the floor. That was it!
She checked her phone. 1 new message. It was from Toby, it said “Mum I am really scared” She flicked a text back straight away. “It’s all gonna be ok. I have an idea.” Toby’s mum got out of messenger and into her photo app. There was a painting of a bucket of water by someone. She copied it and started painting it. Then she printed it and burst into Toby’s room holding it in front of her. The bucket of water came to life and she immediately opened Toby’s window and splashed the water onto the crowd. The torches went out.
The cop lying on the floor was still there. The other cop was somehow flying and Toby wasn’t in his room. He was outside, flying with the cop. But he seemed to be making the cop fly. Toby’s mum screamed and everything turned into a blur.
She woke up later and the whole house was literally turned upside down. She saw one of the Times Square screens and the news was saying that there was something going on in one of the labs. A big bird-lion was attacking all of the scientists. Then Toby’s mum’s eyes opened. There she was, laying in bed. All of this had just been a dream. She immediately wondered if Toby was okay. She got up and the time read 6:48 am. She fell back asleep though. She was glad it was all a dream. Meanwhile Toby was sitting up in his bed thinking about all of the traumatic events that had happened a few hours ago. He knew it wasn’t a dream.

The Race - Tony Stark
His heart was pounding as they flew over the crest of the hill. He could taste the gritty dirt that had blown underneath his helmet, and the trickle of sweat that poured down in his neck. The roar of the engines filled his ears, and he fixed his eyes on the next jump; this was his chance to shine...
Tony revved the engine, and flew off the jump. He was passing everyone! The people watching were at the edge of their seats. Tony did a 360 and made everyone gasp. He finished the jump and was in 1st place. The finish line was 1000m away, so he was close-ish.
Suddenly someone whose skin was light blue for some reason popped out of the crowd. “NOO NOT MR. MEESEEKS!!” “Look at me! I’m Mr. Meeseeks!” Mr. Meeseks got a gun and shot his tyre. He flew off his motorbike and crashed. Mr. Meeseeks laughed evilly and ran off. Mostly everyone who was racing just ran away like cowards but he just tried to jog towards the finish line. It was kind of obvious he wasn’t gonna make it 😂 so he tried to fix his bike with his spare wrench. (His cousin Jules is an engineer) But he fixed it enough so that it was kind of fixed and he tried to get to the finish line.
He realised that he needed to get Mr. Meeseks so he got his grapple gun and went over to Mr. Meeseeks hideout. Tony broke open the door and found Mr. Meeseeks brother. He asked what Tony was doing here and he explained. Tony had no time to mess around so he ran back to the racing area to fix his bike. It wasn’t working so he ran 500 meters to the bike rental but he couldn’t pay for the red bike. He realised his money was at home and his home was 3 hours away. Tony didn’t care and started walking.
He grabbed a lot of materials for his next invention and walked for ages, But when he was nearing his home he saw a hostage being taken but he realised he had a Stark-Sword-9000 so he aimed at the robber and turned the Sword to knockout mode and fired. The hostage was saved!
Now he went inside to get his money and took a quick glimpse at his in-the-works cardboard suit and if he won the race and got the money he would be rich and make an actual nickel titanium suit. LOL that would be awesome.
Anyways he stopped dreaming and took a taxi back to the race. People’s bikes were broken down so he had a good chance! He had his bike on the back of the taxi so he got it down and put on the track and started racing.
The host went like “Where did he come from” and “He was 3 hours!” Tony did a flip on the second-last jump and for the final jump he did (no lie) the best flip recorded in human history!!! The host was open-mouthed as Tony raced across the finish line (WOOO!!)
Everyone screamed and cheered and Tony was given a trophy and the 100,0000 dollars he was promised! He did a fist pump and his mum came up to him and started crying. Tony had no idea why but he realised that he could now pay for his mum's mental health. He also realised that he can get a nickel titanium suit too! 😎😎😎 After everything he had a sleep.
The next morning Tony got up and made his suit! He called it Iron Man. Even though it’s not made of iron haha. He needed a test drive so he called over his buddy Peter Parker and he flew onto the roof. So he made a circle for his chest so his armour can stay on. He flew around New York! It was exhilarating!
