Two birthdays today!!!

Happy Birthday to our own brother Isaac, 5 today:

and a special message to our friend Blythe who is 9 today:

My homework for this weekend...

Write a poem each verse beginning: If I had fins, I would...

Fins…

If I had fins I would... taste the blood red liquid that gushes out of wounded fish which tastes like salty wine.

If I had fins I would... feel the rough rusty surface with my belly, of a treasure chest which is filled with gold coins as bright as the most shining sun.

If I had fins I would… smell the salty whiff of the sea wafting through my gills with a scent similar to salty chips.

If I had fins I would… hear the sound of the sword fish fighting, the schools of fish screaming out bubbles, altogether sounding like a popular fair.

If I had fins I would… see bubbles flying every where, fishes chasing each other and sharks dining on dolphin as if it were their favourite meal.

If I had fins I would…dream of clear sparkling water, forest of dark green coral and shining coins glistening in the light breaking through the surface.

Sad news

This week we heard the very sad news that our school friends Angel, Thor and Keavy together with their little sister Willow died after a horrible accident when the car they were in with their family, rolled into the river Witham.
We are glad to know that Amber although hurt is getting better.
We have all been sad this week and on Friday we lit a candle at our special school service to remember them.

My school trip to Caythorpe

Cathorpe was very fun this is what I did :

- Giant swing ( 1 )
- Climbing wall ( 2 )
- Abseiling ( 3 )
- Silly racing ( 4 )
- Jacobs ladder ( 5 )
.... and lots more....

Descriptions
1. Giant swing : You and a partner are hauled 10 meters in the the air by your classmates , when you get to the top you pull a cord which sends you flying down at top speed.







2. Climbing wall : A 10 meter high climbing wall which at the top you ring a bell , then you lean back and on the way down you shout I WEAR PINK FRILLY KNICKERS!!!!!!!!!!.

3. Abseiling : Abseiling is 10 meters up in the air, first you climb up the the stairs inside of the frame then you get all clipped in and then you
go through the bars, lean back and Abseil down.

4. Silly Racing : Forget speed races, these races are about style and silliness you get in teams and you all get something to act out and its the person withe best impression of it.

5. Jacobs ladder :Jacobs ladder is a vertical ladder with widening gaps between the logs, this activity is about team work and you also need guts to get to the top.

Food was good, showers were warm, lights out was 9.30pm! The teachers were fun....hope they'll be like that in class!!!!!!!!
Me and Greg were swing partners it was BRILL!!!!
