The visit of Ella West

Ella West visit

So yesterday Ella West came to our school. In our class we
Have a ‘Night Vision’ group for reading and Ella West wrote ‘Night Vision’. They had to do a blog post about the book ‘Night Vision’. The blog post caught her attention and she was already coming down to Christchurch for family things and so she decided to come and visit us. 

The day came where Ella West came to our school. We had a little meet with all the ⅞ classes then ⅞ Al went to the learning commons. We asked some questions.
She is a journalist for the southland times forming magazines. She tries aiming for 1000 words a day. She is currently writing a new book called ‘Sound of My Heart’ and it is about a 16-year-old girl running a half marathon and trying to compete against older people.

‘Night Vision’ has won 2 awards.
Her first book was thieves in 2006. In ‘Night Vision’ there is this girl that has a disorder where if she goes in the sun her skin burns and swells up based that on a true part in life because some kids are not too lucky and actually has that disorder where they can't go in the sun. So they don't go to school and cant play netball basketball etc.
