About Me

My name is Caitlin.

I have 4 cats named Winter, Moonlight, Summer, and Smokey. 2 dogs named Fox and Alfie.
Plenty of chickens, and 1 rabbit named Rocky. I live in New Zealand though I previously lived in England.

I am 11 years old and my favourite subject at school is maths. My favourite sport is gymnastics, my goal is to move up a step each year in gymnastics.

I am looking forward to the new subjects and lessons at Taipa as I did not have all those opportunities at Mangonui.

DLO'S





🎵Cyber safety, it’s the rules of the future, you share your life with the web it doesn’t make you any cuter,🎵

You can give them your age but do they really need to know, the date of your birth? Do you really think so?

It’s simple if you think just that little bit more, isn’t keeping you safe what passwords are for?

🎵Cyber safety, it’s the rules of the future, you share your life with the web it doesn’t make you any cuter,🎵

You wanna keep your family safe, it’s easy but for some unknown, do not share private info on you mobile phone,

Someone asks for your phone  and address, what to say, what to say, no thanks, no stress,

🎵Cyber safety, it’s the rules of the future, you share your life with the web it doesn’t make you any cuter,🎵

Now we’ve come to the end of this rap, and you know it makes sense like a bottle and cap. I’m not one for all of this sap, but what do you think ‘bout one more lap,

🎵Cyber safety, it’s the rules of the future, you share your life with the web it doesn’t make you any cuter,  (ECHO)🎵

The Return Of Mother Gothel




Mother Gothel
After I fell from the tower that I had held my little Rapunzel,
I decided I would flee the country. I asked siri where the closest
lowly populated country was and fled ASAP. I was off to
New Zealand…


Ryder
I was having the time of my life at the carnival.
My parents had agreed to let me go with my friends,
probably the first time they had ever agreed on anything,
they were always fighting. Anyway, the line for the
zorbs was tiring just to look at, but since my uncle runs it,
he let me cut in line...


Mother Gothel
Huffing and puffing I finally reached the top of the building.
After arriving in New Zealand I had found a carnival and
decided I would have a little fun -not on the rides of course,
but I was in need of a new Rapunzel...


Ryder
Panting and puffing, I collapsed into a hot, sweaty mess.
The zorb shook violently. Feeling embarrassed and frustrated,
I wondered how the heck I was supposed to make this
green zorb move. I looked down and saw the clear pool water
beneath me and all my anger morphed into calmness...


Mother Gothel
Being an expert at darts, I spotted the perfect one,
letting go of the dart I watched as it whistled through the air
puncturing the green bubble. POP…


Ryder
Argghhh! I screamed as I plummeted into the ice cold water.
I felt my body go numb as I swarmed in and out of
consciousness. Suddenly everything went black.


Mother Gothel
Amidst all the commotion I slid over and snatched the boy
from the water. Flinging him over my shoulder I fled the scene.


Ryder
Opening my eyes, I looked around this unfamiliar surrounding,
in the corner of the room was a woman.
She must have saved me! I thought.
I jumped up and hugged her hard. I was filled with gratitude.


Mother Gothel
The young boy gripped round my waist and I couldn’t help but
hug him back. I told him he would be staying with me for a while
and to my surprise he actually looked excited,
I guess he didn’t like his home much.


Ryder
As I lay on the bed that Mother Gothel had lent me,
I felt more comfortable and safe then I had ever been.
I never wanted to leave and go back to my life of
verbal and physical abuse.


Mother Gothel
After a while, I debated with myself whether to keep him or not,
he was such a sweet boy and didn’t deserve to be kidnapped.
So while he slept, I carried him to his own house and into his bed.
I then headed to the retirement home,
AKA the prison for mad old people.


Ryder
When I woke up in my own bed, I was devastated.
I had hoped to be able to run away with kind Mother Gothel.
I decided I would find her and run off with her.
After a bit of research I headed down the road to the
mad old people’s prison.


Mother Gothel
When that boy turned up and asked to run away with me, my heart melted into cold milk. Ever since that day, Ryder and I
have stuck together and travelled the world growing an army of
unhappy children.


Mother Gothel and Ryder
THE END!!

In The Red

I ran to the bathroom in frustration, I mean, I knew the boys were horrible, but not that horrible!?! My best friend Lola brushed the ants off my back while I filled my head with plans of revenge. “I can’t believe he would do this!” “Throwing ant soaked wood at my back and not even telling me until I realised!!” “That’s a new low!” I cried to Lola.

This was the day that I was truly in the RED...
