P1-P3 ZOO
Primary 1-3 are making the play dens into a zoo and a vet just the other day Miss Stapleton bought us a set of 2 chairs and a table with an umbrella she got us 2 sets of the tables and chairs. We made lots of different things. We also made a safari car. Some of the things for the toy auction went into the zoo. For the zoo I brought in a monkey and a zebra we also got handed in a lizard and a snake and a really cute lion cub. We spent lots of time working on it and I was happy when I heard about it. one of the things I made was a vet sign and a zoo sign I also made a bed for the animals. Paul made some cages for the animals. the bigger playden is full to the roof of teddies like lions snakes tigers and bears.

Billionaire Boy
The book that I have been reading is called billionaire Boy by David Walliams, at the start of the book the main characters are Joe Spud and Mr Spud. They were billionaires they had anything that you could dream of. At the start of there were a checklist, everything was ticked. On the checklist there were everything that he wanted. A Grand Prix track in the back garden, got it. Waterside from bedroom window into an Olympic sized swimming, got it. But on the next page it had one more and it was friends and it had a cross beside it. That is because people thought that he had too much money. On his birthday he did not get any toys he only got a 1 million pound cheque so he got him self a F1 car for the Grand Prix track he had one before but he crashed it into a tree. (He was not hurt.) His dad had a toilet roll business but it went bust so he lost everything. At the end his new friend Bob and Bobs mum let Joe and his dad move in and Joe and Bobs mum liked each other so much that they married each other and Joe and Bob became brothers and a real family.

£124.46 Raised for Nepal Earthquake Appeal – WOW Holywood!!
Well done and thank you to everyone who donated toys or bid at the auction to take new toys home. You managed to raise a whopping £124.46 to help the people of Nepal.
The money was handed into Oxfam for the appeal – they were impressed and grateful for your fantastic and generous donation. We had a few toys left so we gave them in to Oxfam too and hope that when these sell even more money can be raised!
Thank you once again to a very generous school community – you are brilliant at thinking of others!!
Thank you to Elliot and Logan for the bag of soft toys which kicked the whole idea off – well done Keira for the auction idea and for writing out home – your idea was a great success!

My Mum is a Loser!
I read a book called My mum is a Loser by Jim Smith. I really enjoyed reading the book because it was humorous. It’s about a boy called Barry Loser. His best friend, Bunky is having tea with him. Before tea they watched a program called Future Ratboy. His mom turned of the to which made Barry very angry so he stormed upstairs! He exaggerated by saying ” I have been up here for billions off hours” . He gets really jealous because Bunky gets his main course, dessert and a can of fizzy juice. So he pretends to be dead and his mum finds him and he gets upset and keeps on saying I love you Mum, I love you!!!

Holywood toy auction
On Friday the 14th May 2015 the whole school contributed to a toy auction. We had a lot of toys to sell. Loads of people brought their pocket money to buy a lot of toys. Most people got a toy or two. I got a mystery box with a wooden railway and Tesco toy road. Loads of people bought toys and others didn’t. I brought £2.50 and all I got was that mystery box. It was good value though. Miss Dale bought Scooby Doo cars. Some pupils parents came as well. thank you to all the people who gave in toys
Katie Morag
I have read Katie Morag for my reading challenge.
There is 4 story in the book:
- Katie Morag delivers the mail
- Katie Morag and the two Grandmothers
- Katie Morag and the tiresome ted
- Katie Morag and the big boy cousins
My favourite one was Katie Morag delivers the mail because she got wet and then she got all the parcels delivered to the wrong houses. Then with the help of her granny island she was able to get the right parcels to the right houses.
I enjoy reading about Katie Morag and I often get told that I look like her as we have the same colour of hair and we are both scottish wee girls.
