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!

Our Artefacts


The Typewriter

By Jordan Delaney

The first thing our class noticed about typewriters is that they do not have a screen.
Typewriters were out before laptops or computers.

Our Artefacts


The Candlestick Holder
By Luke Murphy

This is a family heirloom.
It was my great great Granma’s and then it was passed on to my Great Granma. It was then given to her daughter, my Grandmother.
It has since been given to my dad and hopefully, one day, it will be mine.
