Holywood Hullabaloo

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!

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!!!

At  Holywood  we had a toy auction on the 15th of May. We had teddies ,toys , dvds  and loads of other items  we raised  a lot of money some parents came along as well we had a great time Scott P7 was the auctioneer . he was very good

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

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.

On the 8th of may 2015 we went to Dalswinton Estate for ffishing. We had to busses to go on I went on the small one but some people got on the big one. The big bus had a TV and a water fountain and the little bus had music. When we got there we met a girl called Debbie and she told us the rules of being by the river we then put our bags down on the floor. There were to men there and they were doing electro-fishing when ever something swam in the hoop the hoop flashed and the over man got his net and caught the stuff. They cautht trout and fry. Then we got to feel the fish in one bucket there was trout and fry and in the over bucket was an eel then we did kick trays I kicked up the rocks and isla caught the bugs we caught all sorts of bugs and then we just got play in the river I walked all the way to the top of the river and walked down the rapids. Then we went back to school for lunch and that was fish after lunch a man called Chris came and taught us how to fly fish.
