 =7H = **CHRISTMAS DAY AT THE ZOO**

I woke as the sun rose up slowly. I could hear birds tweeting, lions roaring, water running and the cold wind blew my long brown hair. Where was I?

Something underneath me was yellow and itchy. I sat up to scratch my back and I realized I wasn’t in my bed. I was laying on a haystack. Where was I? I saw a bowl of water down beside me. I cupped my hands in a bowl kind of shape so the water wouldn’t run out of my hands. I dipped my hands in the water then quickly pushed it against my face. I opened my eyes properly so I could see everything. Then I rubbed my eyes to get the water out of the way. I could see all types of different animals. I wasn’t sure what was going on so I reached for my phone in my pocket. I pulled it out slowly. I looked at the date and it said 25.12.09. I must have been dreaming so I closed my eyes and counted to ten 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10. Then I had another look but it still said the 25.12.09. I wasn’t dreaming at all. It was Christmas and I had no idea where I was. I turned around and up above me to the left a little was a colorful sign saying “Welcome to the Melbourne Zoo”. I was breathless. What could I say? How did I get here? I had this feeling that I was confused but I excited in my tummy, kind of like butterflies.

I took a step forward and “squish!” I looked down. It was cold, smelt gross, very fresh and it was all mooshed up in my toes. “Yuk” I said to myself. I looked down at it. It was a browny-yellow colour. But, what was I doing with no shoes on? Mum was always was reminding me to put my shoes on. She would say, “Put your shoes on please, you never no what’s on the ground these days.” I was used to wearing a pair of shoes - not a little leopard skirt with a matching singlet top. I don’t own anything like this. Imagine if mum saw me in this. She would be wordless and she wouldn’t be very happy. I looked like a bit of a jungle girl.

In the distance I could see cages with animals in them. I started walking towards the first cage. I wasn’t sure what it was at first but as I got closer and closer I could she there were three of then. They were a browny orange color. It looked like lion, three lions. As I got closer they stood up and walked to the front of the cage their noses pressed up against the cage. I got up really close then the lions mouth opened and “ROAR!” I jumped back with fear. “Time to move on, I think.”

There were signs everywhere. One was pointing left and that was to see the rainforest animals. Another one was pointing up to go see the tigers, another one saying go right to go and see the elephants. Another arrow was pointing down to go and see the kangaroos. I chose to go see the elephants because they are my favourite animal.

It was a long way there but I got entertained by all the other interesting animals. When I got to the elephants I saw them laying on the ground. So I decided to be a naughty girl and climb over the fence and go and take a closer look, maybe even have a little lay down with them. I was over the fence when I had noticed blood running down my leg. I'd cut myself. I didn’t worry about it because my brother always told me to get over it so I continued on. By now I was almost at the elephants. Just a couple of metres away and I'd be there. The feeling inside my stomach was hard to explain but it was a little bit of everything I guess. By now I was finally at the elephants and I was puffed. So I got in between the two huge elephants and lowered myself down very slowly so I didn’t wake them up. I rested my head down on one of the elephants feet. It didn’t smell or look too good but I loved elephants so it didn’t really matter. The sun was hurting my eyes and slowly my eyes shut. They were shut tight. “zzzzzzzzzz….”

“STOMP, STOMP” I could feel the vibrations of loud, heavy footsteps on the dirty ground I was lying on. I rubbed my eyes the quickly sat up, I looked around and it was dark but there were street lights around. I must of dozed off with the elephants. I was pretty tired I guess. As I stood up I could hear heavy breathing over me. Something was dripping on me fast. As I looked up, water rushed down on my face. The elephant walked away. The water was freezing cold and now I was cold and drenched. I stomped off with my head down. My clothes were dripping water all over the place.

I found myself back at the haystack in a matter of time. It looked comfortable, so I rested there. I looked up to the beautiful blue night sky. It was a full moon and the stars were shining brightly. I started to count the stars. I got up to forty stars before I could hear footsteps coming up behind me. Someone shined a bright torch at me and bent down and said, “Hello, what are you doing out here? Are you okay?” Then he picked me up and…

“BEEP, BEEP, and BEEP” I took my arm out of my warm bed and reached out for the button on my alarm clock. I quickly ran down the stairs yelling, “Mum, mum, mum, guess what? I had a dream last night and it was Christmas day and I was stuck in the zoo and you will never guess what happened. I had the best dream. I will remember it forever.

So that was Christmas day and the Melbourne Zoo.

** MY DAY AT THE ZOO ** On Tuesday the 28th of April, all year sevens at Ballarat High school went to Melbourne Zoo. I arrived at school at 8:35. It was really cold but I was excited to go to Melbourne. When the bell rang we all assembled at the new bus turning circle, all the teachers marked the roll and gave it to Miss Getlins. There where five buses going to Melbourne just to take the year seven! Everyone was ready to board the bus at nine sharp. Once we were on board, with the seat belts on, the bus left. The drive to Melbourne Zoo took an hour and half. I was sitting with Michelle.

Once we arrived at the Zoo our teacher put us in groups of three to four I was with Brooke and Chloe. But as soon as we set of not even a minuet into walking around the Zoo we lost Chloe. Now our group was Brooke, Alcy and Jade. The first animal was saw was a meerkat it was so cute and it kept chasing Jade’s map of the Zoo. The meerkats were small and black with large long strips of creamy white. They also had small black beady eyes.

The next animal we saw was the baboons. They were large and brown and had pink bottoms. They had a long tail and a really fluffy hair. In the baboon cage there was one big grey baboon he was the largest fluffiest and laziest baboon. Some of the smaller baboons where grooming him. A lady there told our group that all the other baboon listen to him and do what he tells them. After the baboons we saw the Lions and the African dogs. The lions were so cute but they smelt really bad. They were big and yellow with an orange mane and large brown eyes. The African dogs were directly across from the Lions the where small and black with blond spots on their fur.

After walking around and looking at some other animals it was time for lunch. We were all going to meet up at the canteen but Brooke, Isabelle and I were all late. Next we went and saw my favourite animal, the tigers. They were so big and beautiful. They were long and lanky with orange and black fur, big brown eyes and large paws. I loved them but it was sad how they were locked up in a enclosure. The poor animals kept doing the same loop over and over. It was really sad.

The last enclosure we went to see was the monkeys. They were really cool. They were climbing all over the ropes. It was really interesting. We had to run back to meet our class but we were late again. Soon all the year sevens were back on the bus and going back to school. I sat next to Amy on the way home. She was really good company. We arrived back at school at three o’clock and we got to go home early. YAY!

Freddy’s dad ruled all the monkeys. Freddy’s dad, Maxamas was greedy though and wanted to control all the animals in the jungle. This made Freddy angry.

He always asked his dad, ‘Why can’t we just control the monkeys instead?” On one particular night he asked him and his dad said, “Quiet! I’m forming an alliance with the leopards and the snakes to make me ruler of this whole jungle.”

Freddy was worried about this because he knew that the snakes and the leopards were both cunning and sneaky. So he told his dad to be careful.

The next day he was informed that his dad was dead and he was the new leader. His father had been murdered. He decided to carry out his dad’s wish but this time he decided to side with better animals like bears who were too stupid to betray him but strong like the elephants and always loyal. Once he had formed this alliance, he decided to have a meeting on what part to take over next

But Freddy realized what he wanted from the start was to just be happy with what he had. This made the bears and the elephants unhappy and they swore to get revenge. Five years had passed and Freddy had a son. Nothing had happened. Something was about to happen that would change his life for ever.

The next morning Freddy woke up and found that his son was gone. Freddy was so angry he had the urge to kill but he didn’t want to turn out like his dad. All he wanted to do was find his son but he did not know where to start, because he forgot about what the bear and elephants had said. He started to wonder through the jungle for days. The other monkeys started to get worried about him and feared he was dead. While he was walking he found out he was lost so he gave up all hope. But while that was happening, the other monkeys found his son who had escaped from the bears and made his way back to the group.

All the monkeys were extremely worried about Freddy so they put his son Kyle in charge until his Dad got back. When Freddie got back his son was fully grown and he felt like the best father ever. Because his son had become a greater leader than he had what he didn’t know was that he would be remember ed as the  greatest leader of all time.

My Day at the Zoo It was back in grade 2. I was 8 and I loved animals. I was so excited about going to the zoo. I just couldn’t wait.

The day finally came. I went to school bright and early, ready for the day. Once everyone arrived at school and the bell rang, we got on the bus. Of course everyone ran to the back to try and get the very back seat. I didn’t get it but I was only to rows away from it. We all got our seatbelts on and we were off!

It took forever to get to the zoo. Well it only took 1.45minutes but back then that was forever. In the end we got there and jumped off the bus full of excitement. When we got off the bus we had to have play lunch before we could do anything. I ate a Milky Way and an apple.

Finally we got to get in our groups and go look at the animals. I was in a group with Lilly, Matt and Paddy, our teacher was Phillip. The first thing that we went to look at was the elephants (my favourite). They were so cute. They had huge trunks, whiskers and BIG feet. I couldn’t stop looking at them. They were play fighting and squirting water at each other. It was so adorable.

After the group pulled me away from the elephants we went to the giraffes. So big and long necked, so skinny and so spotty.I’m pretty sure by the time lunch came we had been around to nearly every animal and we were all starving. For lunch I had a vegemite sandwich, a chocolate yogo and a banana. After everyone finished we got to play on the playground for a while. Whilst on the playground we played tiggy, knowing that the playground was wet we still ran on it and eventually someone fell over and it was me. I was crying in pain. It hurt really badly. They put an ice pack on it and it settled down a bit, enough to go look at the rest of the animals.

After I got patched up we went to the inside animals. We saw the white polar bears and the pretty little fishes. Before we knew it, it was time to go home. We all walked on the bus wearily because we were so tired from the day. We got in our seats and we were off. I slept the whole way home so it wasn’t that bad. When we got into Ballarat I woke up and then we were back at school and ready to go home.

That night my mum took me to the doctors to get and x-ray. It turns out I sprained my arm… that’s why it hurt so much!

M eerkats are small and have got yellow fur with black stripes across their body. E ntertaining the way they run around and play games. E agles are the meerkats main enemies. When they come, fear breaks out. R unning through the wild searching for food to eat. K eeping very quiet and trying not to move, so they won’t disturb the eagles and can live for another day. A t the end of the day the meerkat pups curl up to their mums and go to sleep. T hey pig out on their food because they are too selfish too share it with anyone else. S cavengers, they run and steal their dinner. Insects, such as cockroaches, is what they desire.

**__ Christmas at the Zoo! __** Once upon a time there was Mum, Dad, my brother and I. We went to the zoo one Christmas eve morning to see all the animals. We were all so excited about Christmas at the zoo. After we saw most of the animals it was nearly time to go. It was 5:30pm. The gate of the zoo was going to close at 6:00pm. We still had time to go see the monkeys and the lions but we had to rush. Once we had seen the monkeys, we didn’t have time to see the lions. It was already 6:05 and the gates were already closed. We were stuck in the zoo till after Christmas day when they opened again.

Mum and Dad said, “Don’t worry we can get some food from the canteen if its still open. Let's go check.” The door was open. “Look at all that food.I could eat all day,” said my brother. In the canteen was pies, hot chips, hot dogs, dim sims and lots more stuff that I can’t recall. “Come children. It's time for you to go to bed and go to sleep,” said our parents as they got a coat and laid it on the ground. “Don’t forget Santa comes tonight so put out your Christmas socks.”

All night I was tossing and turning. No matter what I did I could not get to sleep. Then at 6:00am in the morning I heard him. He was at my feet. I tried really hard not to move and show him that I was awake. “This could be my chance to see Santa himself!” I thought to myself. I quickly sat up and it was my dad going to the bubble tap for a drink of water. I thought, “Oh well I’ll get him next time when he comes”.

In the morning there were presents everywhere. Santa had been. We rushed up and opened our presents. I got a Barbie doll. My brother got a skateboard and my Mum and Dad got a new dog to share called Sam. We were all happy and spent the day playing with our new things that Santa gave us.

The next day when the zookeepers came, they didn’t notice that we had spent the night there. We just walked on past and didn’t look back. We went home with Sam our new dog and all our gifts.

On Tuesday 28th of April 2009 we went to the zoo. I had a great time. It was fun and awesome at the same time.

We went on the bus. It was really boring and I nearly fell asleep. When we got there we went and nearly looked at all the animals.

It was me Nikki, Peter and Louis. Peter and Louis ran off and Nikki and me found them. <span style="font-size: 18pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; msoansilanguage: EN-AU; msospacerun: yes;"> I bought Nikki lunch because the boys ran off. I bought a yo-yo wrist band and a badge. I also bought two things of chips, a drink and an ice-cream.

She said, “We are going to the zoo.” It was going to be a fun day out. We were on our way to the zoo. It was a long boring trip to the zoo. When we got there we went into the zoo. We started looking around the zoo. First, I went and saw the meerkats. They didn’t do much when I was there. When they got fed they went wild. They were fighting over their food.

After that, it was lunch time. My grandmother and I went to get some lunch. I got a bucket of chips and a big M. Then we went to see the elephants. They were splashing in the water. Next we went to the kangaroos. They just hopped around and ate grass. There wasn’t much fun after that. We went around and looked at the rest of the zoo. Then we headed home.

I immediately see a beautiful lady away in the mere distance. I walk towards her with so much persistence. But I am easily distracted by the loud thumping noise. It must be the elephants, they don’t have much poise. I follow the noise coming though the bushes. They’re all bouncing around on the big, soft tushes. I can’t help but join in with the fun filled festivity. Because its one of my favourite activities. I jump on the float full of pleasant vines and flowers. But soon the day is over and I’m left with no powers. Time to go to sleep, I am quiet tired. Tomorrow's the big day so some sleep is required. Good night Sleep tight.
