Sustainability Poster

In class, we are learning about Sustainability. We had to make a poster that showed something bad that is happening in our world. I did mine on how our animals are losing habitat because of deforestation.


Back to Blackbrick Quick Write


In class we read the beginning of the book, Back to BlackBrick. We then had to carry on the story in a quick write. So, what happened was Grandad had given cosmo a key and he snuck out in the middle of the night to use it. 

The heavy iron gates creaked open, and before me was a sight I didn’t expect to see. A squat black building crouched in front of me, encased by barbed wire. Broken glass littered the ground, having fallen from the smashed windows above. The gloomy moonlight filtered through the clouds, illuminating the strangely intact front door. As I took a step closer, the smell of death hit me like a forcefield and I stumbled back. Holding my nose, I started forward again and the icy air surrounded me, tugging at my hair and clothes like frosty fingers.

Eventually, I reached the front door and gingerly placed a foot on the step. All at once, the heavy metal key in my hand burst into flames, scalding my hand that had so carefully held my prize. I dropped it, peering around for the source of danger. There was nothing. As I bent down to retrieve the key, I noticed it had something engraved on it. ‘Cosmo’ written in a haunting, floaty script across the handle. ‘OK, this is definitely creeping me out’ I thought.

I reached out and grasped the door knob. As I did so, I heard a piercing scream, and the world around me blurred and dipped, as though I was underwater. I tried to wrench my hand away from it’s place but it wouldn’t budge. The world was dissolving away and the only sound was the haunting whisper of “Cosmo, Cosmo, Cosmo…”

I woke up sweating and shivering in my bed. It was all just a bad dream and now I’m lying safe and sound in my room. Grandad never gave me a key, I never took a taxi to the gates, I never saw that huge ugly building and it’s surroundings. I swung my legs out of bed and stood up. As I did, I felt something in my hand. It was a key.

Thankyou, Malena, it’s awesome to be here.

So, I’m going to ask you a few questions about your career and life. (OMG, I still can’t believe I’m talking to you!) Anyway, where did you get your inspiration for your hit song ‘Price Tag’?


Jessie-J-performing-on-the-main-state-at-T-in-the-Park.jpg

Well, that was when I was fresh in the pop industry, and I was feeling like money was everything. It’s not! There is so much more to life than just money and high heels.

I see that you have a new hair style. Would you care to tell me a little about that?




Jessie-J-performing-on-the-main-state-at-T-in-the-Park.jpg
Absolutely. There are so many children and adults out there, struggling through cancer. It feels good to do something about it. I shaved my head and left it like that for 3 months. What’s the point of shaving your head if you’re going to grow it back the next day?

Ice age collision course! You seem to have a new role as a sloth!



Jessie-J-performing-on-the-main-state-at-T-in-the-Park.jpg

Yes. It was my first time being in a movie and I didn’t know what to do or anything! Brooke is such a fun character and I loved playing her!

You are now back for season 2 of The Voice Australia! How does it feel being a coach on the voice?



Jessie-J-performing-on-the-main-state-at-T-in-the-Park.jpg

Oh, it’s awesome. I love coaching the singers and sharing my knowledge. It;s amazing watching them grow throughout the show, and being there to experience ot with them.

What advice would you give to aspiring singers?





Jessie-J-performing-on-the-main-state-at-T-in-the-Park.jpg
Just get out there and do it. There will be down falls but from those you will learn and get up again. I had a hard childhood, being sick and getting bullied but look where I am now. If you have a great talent you need to let it shine.

Interviewer:
Thank you for your time Jessie. You are a really inspiring singer and I’m sure you have lot’s of fans (like me)!

Note: Jessie J speaking would be entirely different. It would be punctuated with a lot of um’s and laughing ( not to mention the english accent)!
