Technology

This week the year 7's have been at technology. I made Gollum from The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings and a photo frame. It was an awesome experience.

Silent Secrets ~ Part 2

"Skylar? I put Acca in on of the spare loose boxes beside Symphony. We can go for a hack tomorrow and, maybe you can explain later." Heather said, walking into the warm living room. Skylar nodded silently.
"Can I go see Symphony now?" Skylar asked standing up from her comfy spot on the recliner nearest to the fire.
"Yeah, sure. I already fed him but I wasn't sure what Accapella's diet was so I just feed him sugar beet and chaff. Is that okay?" Heather asked, sweeping her hair out of her face and into a smooth ponytail.
"Yeah, thanks," Skylar replied gratefully, walking into the hallway leading to the stables. Her boots clicked against the smooth tarmac as she walked through the hallway in the stables.
"Hey Symphony," she smiled weakly. Symphony thrust his head over the shiny wooden door of his loose box and nickered a friendly greeting.
"Sky?What are you doing here? Heather called me. You almost gave me a heart attack!" Ruby, Skylar's mum said,  as she came running down the hallway. Skylar didn't even turn around to look at her mum she just kept stroking Symphony gently along his white blaze. Ruby had dark brown hair and lush green eyes that were blazing angrily. She wore a blue long sleeve top with black jeans and black boots.
"Look Sky, I know you don't like Dan but-"
"It's not about Dan, mum! He's fine! It's just that I-I miss dad!" Skylar replied cutting her mother off. Ruby's eyes softened at the mention of her previous husband, Dexter. Dexter had died in a factory explosion. Every now and again Sky had dreams about him. It was always the same dream. Sky was standing there making her lunch for school. Her dad was just leaving, he dropped a kiss on the top of her head as he always did and said, " Have fun at school possum. Love you," and she would reply
" Yeah, bye dad," with a smile.
"Sky, I'm sorry, I miss Dex as well," she said with a sad smile.
"Mum, I'm not coming home. I've already arranged with Aunty Melody and Uncle Scott." She replied whirling around to face her mother . . .

Silent Secrets ~ Part 1

The wind whipped the blood red hair of 13 year old Skylar Greenwood and her silver dappled mare Accapella. The mare was galloping full speed ahead through the dense green forest, the autumn leaves crunching beneath her hooves. Her eyes were a piercing blue and she had a slight faded tan. She wore a black riding jacket with navy jodhpurs, a pair of black riding boots and an apple white duffle bag slung around her shoulder. Skylar wasn't really sure where she was going, all she knew was that she had to get away from her step dad. For months she had loathed him, even though he done everything in his power to try and be nice to her, he just wasn't like her dad. She'd left a brief note saying she had to leave because it just didn't feel right. 'Huh well, I honestly couldn't stay,' she thought slowing Acca down when she finally caught sight of the house. she dismounted and ran up to the door holding the reins loose in her hand while Acca trotted alongside her obediently. She rapped on the door with a  hand a cold as the wood on the door. The door was flung open and a girl in about her 30's stepped out.
"Sky! What are you doing here? Your mum is going mental!" Her long blonde hair was hanging loosely around her shoulders, her cheek tinged pink with the cold. She wore a white cable-knit sweater paired with denim skinny jeans and black ankle boots.
"Aunty Heather, I know, but it just hasn't been right ever since dad left." Skylar cried, the tears streaming down her cherry-red cheeks. Heather wrapped her arms around Skylar and pulled her indoors.
" You can stay here for awhile sweetie," Heather said quietly, taking Accapella's reins and leading him around the back of her house towards the stables. Skylar stayed reluctantly inside the house standing by the crackling fire. She stared at the fire thoughtfully, stretching her  fingers towards it.
