Book Week Dressup

On Friday you could come to school dressed us as your favourite book character. Tom dressed up as Harry Potter. Sadly for him I dressed up as Madam Hooch from Harry Potter so there was no escaping making him go for a broom-flying lesson as part of quiddich training. Aleisha also dressed up in a costume that was made by her grandma and a couple of people sprouted eats and whiskers and came as a mouse from Geronimo Stilton. It was lots of fun and I think a lot of people went home from school on Friday wishing that they had dressed up too!

Interesting reading locations

Kiranjeet sent some great photos of her reading in interesting places during the holidays:



Remember that the draw will be on Monday morning. E-mail me your photos or bring them in to class!

Millie's Acrostic poem

The Red Tree

Troubled, like the little girl crying in the corner
Hanging, as if nothing to say
Empty, like the young dog howling in the wind

Re-do, as if your life is upsetting
Egg shells, looking for an empty spot where the egg shells no longer crunch
Dead, as if your life s a sad, dead life

Tied, all tied in knots not knowing how to get out
Radical World, your world around you is crazy and you don't understand
Evil, your life is evil you never have good luck or pleasure
Everlasting, even though your life is everlasting there are always ting bits of pleasure to enjoy.
