Sun Poem

It shines like crystals it makes the stars . glitter in the moon light sky.and in the morning it shines above the clouds and it brings a colour and warmth to the day the sun makes me smile and warms me up inside the birds sing like a whole orchestra in the sky.

Wednesday 21st September - Soccer....................BY...............PIP!

The seasons gone so fast and it's sad because it is ending.

We had two BBQs and that was fun. We were celebrating the end of the soccer season. It feels funny to not go to Wednesday practice.

I loved the season, it went so well. We all did well and I was blown away with everyone's skill. I loved Natalie's footwork; she worked so hard. So did the rest of the team. I love the way everyone has improved over the season, we all did well.

I'm not going to be writing about soccer anymore so don't be saying "Where is soccer by Pip" because I won't be doing them. It's been lovely - "I hope you liked them" she said.

Monday 19th September - SOCCER BY...........................PIPPY!!!!!!!

We had another BBQ on Wednesday it was great. We had a sausage a drink (Two drinks actually!) A ice cream!





It was fantastico!




We got a cup for the team & a certificate and a big poster of the white ferns!




Natalie was there and we played on the play ground until I went home. I don't know when Natalie went home.



We played and played and we all had fun!



My little speech thingy:

"it is sad and disappointing that soccer is ending.
We have had a good term.
Winning, loosing and drawing. We all love soccer!

I hope I do it next year. Soccer is one of my favourite sports.
It is so fun and you can play it at home with your friends, all you need is a ball.

CLUB PENGUIN Stowaway! Review

CLUB PENGUIN Stowaway!
Adventures at sea

By Tracy West
At club penguin 3 friends are talking about Rock Hopper the pirate. One of them was wearing a striped t-shirt and belt. He was planning to stow away on board. While his friends were keeping Rock Hopper busy he sneaked on the pirate ship and hid in.........read the book to find out.

In this book you get to choose your own parts out of it to make your own story . In my story, the penguin heard a voice say “What do we have here” and woke up to see Yarr, Rock Hoppers puffle and Rock Hopper in front of him. I joined the crew and we saw a sea monster. The cap’n asked me to “go find me some fruit”. However, I got stones instead of fruit, you will have to read the story to find out why. At the end of my story Rock Hopper said “I know an island where I could trade these stones for bananas. Good job mate.” So I guess he will get his fruit after all. But if you read the book, your story will probably be different .

I liked this book because I got to choose what I wanted and when something does go wrong for me I go back and change it. It was cool reading this book because I have a Puffle and its pink so I like reading about Puffles.

This book would suit girls and boys of years 3 and up
