Hi there! Thanks so much for inviting on your blog. What a great idea to have a blog for young writers. When I was growing up we didn't have blogs – we didn't even have computers! Can you imagine that? Yep, that was the olden days, where I rode around in a horse and cart (no, not really – we had cars by then) and everything I wrote was by hand. Sometimes I still prefer to write my stories by hand. I always carry a notebook with me because you never know when a good idea is going to come to you. My notebooks are full of ideas: things I remember from my childhood, drawings, snippets of conversations I may have heard, even cuttings from newspapers and magazines that interest me. Sometimes I might even begin a story in my notebook, then when I feel it begin to take shape, I'll begin to type it out on my computer. A notebook is a great place to practice your writing. Because, like everything, if you want to be good at something, what do you have to do? Yep, that's right – practice! Imagine if you were a runner and you turned up on race day to run your 100 metre sprint without having done any practice. You wouldn't do your best run, would you? Well, writing is just the same. The more you practice in your notebook, the more likely it is that when you do finally sit down at the computer, the ideas will flow. The more you write, the better you get at writing. Good luck! And have fun.

Best wishes,

The excursion to the city


On Tuesday all of the 1\2’s went to the city to see some buildings. I was really excited!!!
First of all we went to the art centre spire .I couldn’t believe how tall it was .It was white and black at the top. It was incredible .It was a nice place to sit. It had a wobbly skirt.
Second of all we went to fed square. It was tall and colourful. It was huge! There are chairs beside it and the whole class sat on them. It is orange and blue. It was fantastic.

Last we went to the shrine. We saw a statue of Simpson and he’s donkey. There are eight columns at the fount. There are lots of status there and poppys.
