Castles, Cartoons, a Skyswood Rainbow, Anniversary Art, a wonderful print, Poetry and the 2.6 Challenge!

A massive congratulations must go to Charlotte and Iris for their fabulous effort in raising over £200 through the 2.6 Challenge. Iris read an amazing total of 26 books (over the course of three days), Charlotte completed 26 pogo jumps and the girls spent 26 hours in the garden (including an overnight camp!) I’m pleased the girls didn’t do that today, with the weather changing s dramatically! The girls are raising money for The Smallest Things Charity, which supports premature babies and their families.) Charlotte even featured on the CBBC’s Newsround Page. Well done girls, we’re all so proud of you!

Rainbow over Skyswood. Jimmy (Year 6) found this photo and thought it quite apt at this particular point in time. Thank you Jimmy, a fabulous photo. Let’s hope the sunshine returns for the weekend!

It’s thumbs up from Iris as she completes her 26 book reading marathon!

Well done to Charlotte and Iris on their magnificent effort!

Ice-Cream

Ice-cream, ice-cream, you are the best,

You are so sweet,

And you give me a treat,

I love to eat you on a hot summer’s day.

Ice-cream, ice-cream, I love any kind,

You are so yummy,

And great for my tummy,

I love to eat you any way.

Ode to Pizza

Oh pizza, oh pizza,

You glorious thing,

I gobble you up

With one big grin.

Your cheesy topping,

Delights me within,

Oh pizza, oh pizza,

You glorious thing.

Oh magnificent pizza,

I adore your sticky cheese,

Your fabulous tomato red is my favourite colour,

I admire your perfectly round shape,

Oh my dear, wonderful and delicious pizza,

How much I love you!

When I eat you it makes me twirl,

You are the most yummy ‘licious food

Sensations Roast Chicken and Thyme Crisps

The flavour of my dreams,

The smell wafts out of the bag as it pops open,

My mouth waters at the fantasy of thyme and the glorious roast chicken,

The delicious sensation of the crunch in my mouth,

And the sadness of eating the last one,

Sensations Roast Chicken and Thyme crisps…

I would be incomplete without you.

Chloe (Year 4)

Ode to Spaghetti Bolognese

Oh spaghetti Bolognese,

I love the swirly texture you have,

I slurp and slurp and slurp until my chin is orange,

Oh, spaghetti Bolognese,

I love you even though you’re not a living thing.

Rose (Year 1)

Ode to Pasta

Oh pasta ,

I love all your different shapes and sizes ,

I like that I can just eat you with a fork,

I dream about your lines, butterflies and strips,

I love you pasta!

Jack (Year 3)

Sloths

Sloths are slow and live in treetops,

Treetops tall in tropical forests,

Forests need to be protected,

Protected by climbing these creatures reach high,

High near the sky is where they like being,

Being brown and furry makes them hard to be seen,

Seen snoozing often you’ll find all sloths,

Sloths are slow and live in treetops.

Isla (Year 4)

Shortbread

Shortbread you are delicious,

Your buttery taste,

Your crumbly biscuit,

You go perfectly with a mug of hot chocolate,

You make me want more!

Megan (Year 4)

Custard Creams

Your sweet creamy centre melts in my mouth,

Custard creams I love you,

Your crumbly sugary biscuit is wonderful,

Every time I see you my mouth waters like crazy,

Your taste is divine,

Which makes me feel marvellous and fine.
