Cian Joyce's Story

(the spelling are highlighted in red)

One day inside a hospital, a team of surgeons had a patient that needed a special procedure.It was so rare that they needed special tools from New York University Hospital. But before the surgery, the surgeons had a football match. 'Who ever scores the first goal makes the first incision', they decided.
Dr. O' Neil won, and at five o' clock, the chief surgeon had to request a new box of gloves outside the door of the O.R.
Eventually, the sugery started. While Dr. O' Neil was making the incision, the team was waiting for a referee because it was a special situation.
Later on in the surgery, the patient's heart stopped beating so the surgeons had to respond by preforming C.P.R. Finally, the patient started breathing again.
Within the hour, the surgery was complete and the surgeon celebrated in the hospital garden.

Piet Mondrian

Recently, we looked at the art of Piet Mondrian.

He was from the Netherlands and his famous work focussed closely on the primary colours,

blue, yellow and red.

We decided to create our own Mondrian-esque pictures...

and some of us were inspired to go even further!

By Cian and Conor

The other day, the class was looking at the work of the famous artist, Piet Mondrian.

We used paints to try and recreate his work.

We used black, red, yellow and blue.

When we were finished, Ms. O' Carroll went to wash the paint from our pallets.

Look at what happened to our sink!

It was great to have Alan Kelly in the classroom and it was nice for him to meet the Larriers Legends! From one legend to another in fourth class we reckon!!

The Emirates

It was a beautiful day in July and I felt like I could anything but I couldn't because it was my dad's birthday.
I forgot to but him a present so I had a good think about it when something incredible happened!
I found out that you could but two Arsenal tickets for €50!
I bought them and went home and showed him the tickets and he let out a loud scream.
My dad said the Emirates was the coolest place on earth. The environment was electric in the stadium. We went to the shop and then we bought loads of Arsenal stuff.

My Birthday

One day, it was my birthday. My mum told me that I could go any place for my birthday.

So, I told my mum that I wanted to go to the zoo. The next day, we went to the zoo and there, I heard a strange sound. It sounded like a creature trying to protect it's baby.

Soon, I had to go home because the zoo was closing.

When I got home, I had some dinner and cake. It was lovely!

The Poor Creatures

I heard that two people said they wouldn't protect a helpless, strange creature.

Then I thought to myself... Would I do that to any creature??

Our Stories

We are beginning to try and improve our vocabulary and story-telling. Here's a piece that Ade wrote using loads of interesting openers!

I got up early in the morning, had my breakfast and eventually we went to the airport. We were going to Egypt!!! It took ages and finally we got there. Firstly, we went to our hotel and soon we went on our first visit of the day.

We got on a bus and soon we were driving through the Sahara Desert and then we spotted the pyramid! Later, we got off the bus and stood outside the pyramids. There were camels and sand everywhere!

After a while, it started to rain heavily. I got stuck in the sand! Then I remembered what I had read about quick sand:

Number 1: Don't panic

Number 2: Tell someone to get a rope

Number 3: Don't struggle.

At last, I got out and enjoyed the rest of the trip!

The Evil Witch of the Grassy Pitch

When I was going to the pitch my granddad said "Where are you going?." "The pitch" I replied, "What pitch?", "The grass pitch" I said. "Ok, I will see you later."

So when I was at the pitch my friend asked "What foot do you shoot with?" , "Both of them" I told him, " But I am good in goals as well." So he asked me to go into goals.
When I was in goal I looked up and saw a witch! She came down and took my friend and I screamed "Oh No!! He was my only friend!" I went after her and grabbed on to the broom and flrew with the witch. She brought us to her house and licked us up in a cell.
Later on I looked out of the cell and saw that the weather was disgraceful. While we were sitting in the cell she was signing a contract. I asked her what hand she wrote with, she said her right. Then I asked when we’d be going home. "NEVER!!" she screamed! So I snatched the keys and when the witch was asleep I got out and ran for life. I said "Bye bye!" to the witch and threw her keys back at her. She chased me and I ran and said "Don’t touch mne you old, ugly witch!" She stopped running and said "Yeah I am really ugly" and she fell to the ground and the cold got to her so she died. We all lived happily ever after.

My Story
(Based on my spellings)

My uncle asked me "Would you like to go fishing?"
I said "Which rod will I be using?"
He answered, "I'll tell you when we get there."
We got to the harbour and we took out our rods and then threw the line in.
My Uncle said "I think I have something".
"What is it?" I asked.
"It's a salmon!" he answered.

I thought to myself, 'I could write a story about this...'

The Naughty Boy

I looked at the weather - which was bad.

I went to see what it was to be like tomorrow. As a stood there looking, a witch flew across the sky.

"What are you going to do to me?" I asked.

" You have been a naughty boy," she answered.

I was sent off in a football match last May. It was in the preliminary round of the Scott Pierce Cup. Some might say it was an innocent tackle. Others say it was like a clip from a Kung Fu film.

Crime and Punishment

I joined the police force in June. I was very good but my manager said "You would not be able to go and arrest someone". However, a few weeks later, I got a job to investigate a robbery and when I got there, there was nothing wrong!

So, I went into the local shop and siad to an old man "I am an officer. I got a report of a robbery".

The man said, "Oh yes. There were a few kids in the shop and they robbed some licourice".

So I sighed and told the old man "I'll get on it right away".

When I caught the kids, I made them pay for the licourice and I went back and said "I QUIT!"

The seargent said "No, I'm sorry for all of that. I'll get you another assignment".

I said "Alright. But it better be good!".

I went and I got on it. It was a bank that got robbed and I single-handedly caught the robbers and I arrested them.

The man who owned all the money got it back and then he gave me an award. It was in the Sunday Newspaper! It said "Local Police Officer Caught Bank Robbers and Earned BIG REWARD".

My Story: Using Connectives

By Luke Murphy

I flew to the shop because I was forced to go. I had to get milk, coke, the Herald anf some ice-cream for €1.50.

Then I drove in my sports car to earn some money as the youngest taxi man but I forgot my keys to the house. Eventhough I forgot my keys I had a back up plan. After my job, I tried my back up plan. I climbed though the window but then I saw the door open!!

The Island

by Evan Pierce

We could hear the cry of a wolf. We knew it was a wolf by the long, howling cry it was making. We were starnded on an island a thousand miles from home.We wetre on our way to holidaying in North America when the boat we were on sank. Five of us swam to shore. We mad a camp straight away and got a fire going.

It wasn't long before night came and all the noises on the island began. Whenthe morning came we walked. We walked all aound the island. Survival would be tough, but we knew if we wnated to see our homes again we would have to be brave and tough. There could be a jungle on the island with many creatures and many adventures to share with you...

Our Day at Bull Island

Our Trip to Bull Island!!!

By Jack Kenna.



We went to Bull Island on Tuesday on a class outing. We left the school at 10 o' clock and got the bus up the road. We went on a long walk to the visitors centre. When we arrived there, a man called Pat showed us a slideshow. It was really interesting. Then we looked at different energy sources like solar, wind and earth power. My favourite power was solar power. Then we saw lots of birds, that was cool. We got back to school at 2:30 pm. We had a great time and learned a lot about nature.

The Robbery

By Evan Pierce

A long time ago, there lived a detective in Dublin. He was known as Shrek. Shrek was fifty when he heard about the murder of Jonny Forty Coats. He was told to go to a house in Sheriff Street to find out what really happened.

The house was haunted. When he walked in, he could feel the presence of a ghost. That is why nobody went into the house. When he went to the front room, there was a birthday card on the table. It read: 'Specially for you, Jonny Forty Coats'.

He heard a noise coming from the basement. He went to have a look and there was a miniature 'Scooby Doo'... Yes! A Puppy Doo! There, standing with a scissors, looking very suspicious.

'I killed Jonny Forty Coats', he said in a happy voice.
