LITERARY CONTRIBUTIONS BEING AN ECO SCHOOL 1. I can put logs out and put a roof on top and it would look like a bug hotel. 2. I could put a birdhouse with bread on it and a bird could come and eat it. 3. In the playground I am going to pick up litter and put it in the bin. 4. In my garden I could plant a tree. 5. I can grow vegetables in my garden. Lorena Del Castillo, Prep. 2
VERY, VERY, HUNGRY! So we went to every shop but they were all closed except for one. We went in and bought some sandwiches, they were only five pounds for twenty of them. Then we went back to class to eat our sandwiches. When it was home time we walked down to the Antrim Road. Suddenly all the other classes appeared on the pitch and the teachers were there too! It was very strange. We walked on and my mum was waiting for me. I got into the car and we went home. Miss Phillips came over to see if I was okay and she stayed for a cup of tea. She said that it was scary today. My mum said, “What was scary?” So Miss Phillips told my mum all about it. Sophie Scott, Prep. 3
SPORTS DAY I liked the flat race. We were all fast in the flat race. I came fourth in it. At the ground force game I came second and I just beat Elliott and my mum and dad cheered me on. In the running me and Stephen were joint in first place. At the end we all got a medal and certificate. Benjamin Watson, Prep. 2

THE ROYAL WEDDING We were watching the Royal Wedding and I thought that the choir went on too long and I thought that they would have been tired. Prince William and Kate got married in Westminster Abbey. It was good the way they didn’t have black windows in the cars and everyone could see them. I saw William and Kate kiss on the balcony of Buckingham Palace. The view was good and it was good the way they started off in the old car when they left the palace. It was special. Buckingham Palace was very big and clean. My dad said there were about two billion people watching the wedding. Some of them lived in London and lots had travelled there to see the wedding. There were loads of people cheering and everyone was happy. The look-alikes were very good too. It was a lovely, bright shiny day. Oliver O’Kane, Prep. 3

One morning I went to school. When I got in all the school was there. Then we went to assembly. After that we did some comprehension, it took a long time. The bell rang for break time and we went outside, but no other classes came out, just us P3. Then we played for a little while. Then the bell rang for us to go back inside so we went back to class. We drank our milk and water and we finished our comprehension. We were all wondering what had happened to all the other classes. We were very hungry but we couldn’t get any food because there was no one there to cook food. Mrs Sherrard could have made bread but she had no ingredients. We were
In 1814 there was a family called the Johnsons. They had a son, a daughter and a cat. One day, they went on a hike up the Cave Hill. They had not heard of it before or seen it so they were quite excited. Their mum Lize suggested that they brought a picnic. So they got everything into the carriage and off they went. When they got there they started to climb to the top. It was very tiring so they stopped half way up for their picnic. After their picnic the children, Michael and Amy, went off to play.
