The Magic Fairy



Once upon a time, there was a woman that really wanted to get married. There was one problem: she was too poor. Then, a few days later, a magic fairy appeared and said to the woman "I will grant you one wish". The woman wished that she had enough money for the wedding and the reception.


"Absolutley!" said the fairy.


That December, she had a lovely wedding.

The End.

At The Desert's Edge

This week we have been learning about the Presentation Brothers in Ghana. We watched a DVD Called ‘At Desert’s Edge’. It shows the educational system in Ghana. We learned that the children of Ghana have to walk 8 miles to get to school.


It takes them two and a half hours to get to school and it only takes us 5 minutes to get to school. They wear uniforms like us. They were uniforms because they have no proper clothes. We were uniforms so we don’t go missing or feel left out.


They get fed three times a week. We bring in our own lunch. They do all the same subjects we do. They do English, History, Religion and Maths.

At The Desert's Edge




Dear Diary,


Today I woke up at half five because I had to walk 8 miles.I had to step over stones.Our teacher's name is Br. Bernard.When I got home I had to do chores and plant seeds.The next day we learned how to spell hello in French.


After school we got rice and stew.I can't wait for next year because I will have new friends a new football and a new yard. All of my village is poor but we work together to get more money and more clothes. My friend, Joe, lives down the road. He goes to a different school and he lives a tough life because he gets bullied. By Kian McD

Royal Wedding




The day that the Royal Wedding was on, Prince William and Kate Middleton were getting married. It was October and my favourite movie was on so I grabbed the remote and tuned in to my favourite movie. My ma said "Hey! I wanted to watch that!".


I said, "There will be plenty of replays". So I kicked back and enjoyed some delicious ice-cream. By Jonathan D

Arsenal's Greatest: Transferred!



There is this team called Arsenal, which became a noticed team in 1945 during the end of World War II. In 1955 Arsenal bought their best ever tranfer player, Liam Brady.



He was allowed join on a free deal from Southampton. On July 1992, Arsenal bought a young Dutchman called Denis Bergkamp. He was from Amsterdam and was bought from AJAX.



In 2004, Arsenal bought a Spanish magician called Cesc Fabregas, he came from Barcelona. I think Arsenal are the best team in the world... way better than United. Don't you agree????

Tasty 3D Shapes!

Our class has been looking at 3D Shapes.

3D Shapes have three things: vertices, faces and edges.

We decided to make our own shapes using marshmallows (vertices) and cocktail sticks (edges).

We think we might become architects after this lesson!!
We made shapesd such as cubes, square-based pyramids, triangle-based pryamids and traingluar prisms. It was so much fun!

Emily Carr

Lately, our class has been learning about Native American Indians.
We have just finished looking at a Canadian artist called EMILY CARR.
She was around years ago and she loved painting totem poles and other
things to do with Native Americans.
We really liked her work, so we tried it out for ourselves!!

Class Trip

Today we decided to take a stroll in Fairview Park.
It was a beautiful day and the class had been working so hard lately, we felt they deserved a nice trip.We had a picnic in the park and fed some of the seagulls and ducks. They went crazy!
We saw herons, swans, magpies and mallards.Everyone had a lovely day and we managed to get most of the mud off our shoes before coming back to the classroom!
