Easter Blogging Competition by Sophie
Early morning spring sunshine covers the land in gold.
Animals spring across the meadows.
Songs from the chirping birds spread over the land.
Trips out for family fun.
Easter egg hunters are curiously searching high and low.
Roasting dinner to celebrate Easter with family and friends.
CHESSINGTON!!!
I went to Chessington and it was my birthday present. First we went on the log flume , next we went on this jungle bus that went up and down and it made my tummy flip. While mummy and Georgia were on the monkey swingers that went round and round me and daddy went on the bumper cars. Daddy kept crashing into everyone. Next all of the Madagasca characters came out and they sang the song then we went on the safari and we saw gazelles and grevy zebras, garaffs and zebras. On safari there was a cave and by it was a river that we splashed through and a sign saying Danger Go Back but we carried on. We saw gorillas and baby ones and they were just like us. A baby one was holding onto its mummy’s back and once they got round the corner he was having milk from his mummy like babies do. We couldn’t see the tigers because it was camouflaged in the trees and one was underneath the window. Once we were in the hotel room mine and Georgia’s bed had tiger print duvets and we saw a fox in the morning out of our window and it was creeping up on some baby ducks. The mother took the ducks to the side where they were safe. One duck was left behind but it got to safety, We could see the safari park from our bedroom window. Chessington was my favourite holiday.

Easter Poem
Everyone’s excited that Easter has come
A snowy white lamb munching on fresh green grass
Sunny yellow chicks hatching
Trees blowing calmly
Eating patterned chocolaty eggs
Rabbits happily hopping in the shining sun
Easter
Everywhere choclate is hidden
And
So many children have
To look
Easter is a great time of the year so
Remember not to eat all the choclate at once

Bronze Certificates
In Badgers class since September the children have been earning merit marks for going above and beyond, this can be for work or play.
These children so far have achieved their 10 merits and received their Bronze certificates in the last term which is fantastic and are now on to the Silver Merit challenge which is 20 merits. I hope to see the whole of badgers class with 10 merits by the end of next term!
Well done!

My first regional BMX race!
On Sunday Harri and I went to Paignton with Daddy to race the first regional race of the season. I was racing in 6 and unders and I finished 4th,3rd and 4th in my moto’s and finished 3rd in my final.
Harri finished 2nd,2nd and 2nd in his moto’s and 2nd in his final. We had a great day in the sunshine.
I took my medal to school and showed everyone in my class.
in the sun
on Saturday i went outside to play in the sun with my brother
my brother was helping my dad and then
when they were finished Fred played with me. he went on his bike and i ran. we went up a little tiny grass hill in our
drive way then we went down it. i went back
in the house. I went in the conservatory and read my book of horrid Henry
On Wednesday
On Wednesday we went to Bristol on the coach. Me, Sophie, Ruby and Finlay played hang man and I spy with Mrs Pang. When we got there we had our snacks. Then we went to the museum. We first looked at vehicles and we went in the big bus. There were phones and you listened to someone talking about their lives. Then we went up stairs and looked at pirate things. We saw a shop and you had to put an apron on and you could weigh the food.
After we had looked round we went to have our lunch, there was some really cool pirate food.
I had a pirate lunch box and a pirate cake. We stuck stickers everywhere on our packed lunches! Then when everyone had finished, Pirate Duncan took us on a tour. He showed us caves where the pirates used to hide. We looked in through the windows and we saw a cave in there. Pirate Duncan said that Black beard killed someone and he would hide in that cave. He said that there would be a picture in front so that they wouldn’t find him. He told us lots of information and facts then we had to walk back to the coach. THAT WAS A REALLY COOL DAY
My first story
The other day I wrote my first story and I wanted it to go on the blogsite ((Mummy and Daddy only helped with some of the spelling and punctuation!):
‘The hen was in his pen and the star was in the sky, and the sheep and a dinosaur were playing tag and the sheep won. Then the clouds came in, the sheep was sad. The dinosaur had an idea when he saw a house and there was a rainbow. There was a monster, a coconut fell on his head. Then it was bedtime, they all went to bed. In the morning they played tag in the living room. They sat on the chair and watched Star Wars. Now everyone was happy. The end.’

My 500 word challenge
This is my story that I entered for the bbc 500 word challenge…
The Ghost of The Deserted Pier
Once there was four children and a dog, the dogs name was Floppy and the children’s names were Jack the oldest one, Leo the youngest one, Mary and Lucy.
It was a Saturday and the four children had been wanting to go to the beach but Dad had said “first do your chores” so they did.
After a while Dad took them to the beach by car. It took two hours. Dad said “you better have fun and make the most of it”. When they got there this is what they did: made sandcastles, went in the sea and had a walk. Jack asked Dad if they could go to the pier Dad said “no” Lucy said “pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease” this time Dad said “yes but who’s going to pick you up from here?” Jack said “by taxi” “ok but be back for tea!” shouted Dad from out of the car window “ok” they shouted back while running to the pier.
When they got to the pier they where shocked, it was dark, it had signs hanging off buildings and it looked like know one was there at all. So they went inside and all could see was dark, broken, old two pence machine and other things you can do.
They all split up and looked for something to do Leo said he had an idea “lets play hide and seek” Jack said “ok Ill count”so he started counting “One Two Three Four Five Six Seven Eight Nine Ten coming ready or not here I come” said Jack.
Jack went to find them,he found Mary behind a cupboard door and Lucy under a table but he couldn’t find Leo anywhere. LEO WE GIVE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but Leo didn’t come out of his hiding place “maybe a ghost took him” Lucy said as a joke.
Suddenly they here a loud BANG BANG BANG!!!!!!!!! “what was that” whispered Mary. They walked to one of the walls, the banging got louder and louder when they got to where the banging was it had stopped “that was odd” said Jack.But when they looked around they saw a box of matches they hadn’t been opened yet they kept walking and saw three barrels of gunpowder “someone has bean trying to blow us up”.
They ran round the corner and saw a ghost trying to light a barrel of gunpowder, but he could not find his matches “looking for this” said Jack holding the matches up in his hands “give me that or he gets it” said the ghost “who gets it” said Lucy then the ghost took a blanket off Leo. Jack said to the ghost I will give you the matches if you do a headstand so while the ghost was struggling to do a headstand Mary ran and grabbed Leo. RUN ITS GOING TO BLOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! they ran to there taxi GO GO GO!!!!!! so the driver went fast. When they got home they said “Dad were sooooooooo hungry”.
FLUSHING/CORNWALL
When I went to Cornwall I did lots of fun things like: Crabbing, walking/beach, playing and I fed ducks, cormorants, swans and seagulls. I went on a ferry to Falmouth which we could see from our backyard. We had a day out to St Ives and we did a pirate walk around the harbour, it was really fun. While on the walk we saw Dolphins playing in the sea and a seal near the rocks. I had some delicious foods there. I had a lovely time in Cornwall. When I got home I got a postcard from Hattie which gave me a big smile!!!
Lego movie
Dear Badgers class.
On the 21 of february I went to see the lego movie.
The lego movie is about a workman who has lost his instructions of how to be a normal person.So he went after them and when he found them he saw a robber.
He saw his instructions on the floor.It said if robbers seen report to boss.So he was just about to report when the robber took of the mask and it was a beautiful girl.The man stood watching for a bit.Then chased her.The man fell down a hidden tunle.When he got to the bottom of the tunle he lost his instruuctions which said dont touch stuff that you dont know what it can do.He saw a golden spiks and he touched it.The next thing he knew he was in a police stashon with a thing on his back which can destroy the world.The police were asking him questuns.The man said no to all of the questuns they asked him because he did not know how he got there and what happend to him. Luckily for him the beautiful girl came and saved him.When they got back in the city they had a talk.The talk was about the ordnery person being a special one.He was actually the most powerful brik bilder left on the planet.He had the power the strenth and the cofendens.
Phillip Island
First we went to Churchill Island. We saw some animals like a horse and a few cows and a few sheep. We looked round a old Victorian house. We saw where they ate and where they washed and where they cooked.
After , we went to see the Koalas and wild Koalas!Most of them are normally sleeping. They sleep up to 20 hrs per a day. We saw a Koala running on the ground to a new tree! It was very cute!!
In the evening we saw the Penguins waddle up from the sea to their homes!!
We are now in Sydney before we come home.
sleepover
I went to my nannys and she took me to skittles then I slept over.
London
In Half Term we went to London. We stayed at a hotel.
We saw Big Ben and the London Eye. We went to the Horseguards museum and I dressed up as a guard. We went to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory musical, it was very good, my favourite person was Willy Wonka. We went on the tube. I sneaked into mummy’s bag and had some chocolate buttons in the middle of the night.

New babys
Our Aunties in Thailand have had twin boys! They are called Samuel and Luca. We have bought loads of tiny clothes and little hats they are very cute. Samuel is slightly bigger than Luca. They’re even smaller than our Aunties hands! Our Aunties might come back to live in England that means we can see them. When I’m 18 I will be able to baby sit them. I cant wait to meet them. I wish they could be girls. But I’ll still paint their nails.
Australia
On the first day in Australia we met our cousins named Zach, Izzy and Holly. On Wednesday we went with our cousins to the water park because it is there day off while we are here. What we did is we went down the lazy river , we also went on Aqua racer and we went on two pitch black long slides.
