End of Spring poem by Isabella

End of Spring

Tediously time ticks by as the seasons slowly change. Longer with light, shorter at night.

The once bulging, blooming flowers now turned to verdant green leaves clutching onto their branches. They’re waiting until Autumn, like a butterfly waiting to emerge from its embraced cocoon.

Book Week - Dress up Day

Book Character Dress up

On Wednesday the 8th of November, we had a 'dress up as a book character day'. I enjoyed it very much because I liked seeing everyone's interpretation of their favourite character. 

I went as the Queen of Hearts from 'Alice in Wonderland'. Tere were lots of Wonderland themed characters such as two White Rabbits and numerous Alices. 

I really enjoy Book Week because special once-a-year things happen.

Raft Building

My head was fizzing with ideas, waiting to spout out. Waiting. Time went by, I was still waiting to share. The pile gave me a helpless look, which told me it was going to fall apart the way it was. 

The ramp shook as the jumble of barrels was pushed out. I could tell it had had enough. It let go, giving itself space to strech and and breath. Broken. Bamboo sunk and barrels rolled out into the lake. The creature was no more. All the girls screamed and worried looks spread across the boy's faces. My idea would've worked. I know it.
