Snack
I really wanted a snack
But mum said “GO BACK!”
I was really mad
And I knew mum felt bad.
Five minutes later
Mum shouted “Mater”
I was really happy
But then I had to change my brother’s nappy!

Cats and Hats
Once there was a cat
That ate a rat,
There was a hat
That had a chat.

OUCH!
Once I saw my dear friend Zog
Who stood on a cog
How he said ‘ow’
Now I will be a cow!
By Thomasina
The Dairy
I went to the dairy
But all the milk was hairy
And it was really scary.

My Puppy Ben
My Puppy is called Ben
He’s not even ten
And he has his own pen.
By Ollie
There once was a cute little dog
Who very much liked to jog
He had a very good friend who was a cat
They made homemade bats
But they never made them on foggy days
By Ollie
ZOO
In Mr Magoos amazing zoo you will find:
A perfectly peculiar parrot
Phoning a carrot.
A filthy fantastic fox
Flipping off rocks.
A rare risky rat
Running to catch the cat.
A friendly familiar fish
Flipping around in a dish.
A mysterious majestic monkey
Riding on a donkey.
An annoying armadillo
Falling asleep on a pillow.
By Abbie
Last night I was playing football
I tripped and fell over the wall.
I started bouncing to the hall
There was no J20 at all.
By Dylan
The Undersea World
The sea is a wonderful place
The fishes are holding a race.
The undersea garage is open
And that’s lucky because Mr Crab’s car is broken.
The young fishes are going to school
They all think that school is really cool.
One little fish is late
And this really worries his mate.
But then they find him playing
And he doesn’t see the search party coming because he is too busy saying….
“Hi, how are you?” to a mouse
Round the back of his house.
By Tali
The Phoneys Baloney
I once met a phoney
He gave me a baloney.
I learned his name
Which brought me to fame.
And then became really bonnie.
By Ruby
The Dog!
Who tripped over a log
He got stuck in a cone
When he got out there was a bone
And that was the reward for the dog.
By Emma
The meat and feet
I like to eat a lot of meat
And I like the smell of my own feet
I tried to put them over my head
But then I ended up dead.
By Sabienne
In the summer I like to play
All through the big long day
It’s so fun
My friend made a great pun.
By Katy
Ellie is so cool
But she hates the bull because he’s very cold
And really, really old!
By Katy
To the Future
Flying cars
A trip to mars
Back to earth
oh how I wish I could see the stars.
By Poppy
A cat and a bat
Once there was a fat cat
He was looking for a bat
The bat screamed like a baby
But the cats name was Taby
Then the fat cat ate the black bat.
By Poppy
The Ocean
In the ocean there are lots of things you’ll find.
Here are a few things that come to mind…
They’re big fish and small fish
Lots of different shapes.
Sometimes if I really wish,
I see them wearing capes.
Let’s go deeper down in the sea,
To see now what lives there.
A seahorse that didn’t look like me
And clothes he didn’t wear.
Let’s go deeper, deeper still,
into the murky pool.
I wonder if I ever will
see a big shark fool.
Now our journey comes to an end,
Come on now let’s go my friend.
And it’s time now to get fed,
So then I can sleep, in my warm bed.
By Ben
