Birds

by Aimee aged 9

There’s a bird in the sky
flying up high
wearing a bowtie
someone poked him in the eye
and now it’s hard to fly
so he’s saying goodbye
and he’s about to DIE!

There’s a bird in a flock
he’s about to drop
to the ground with a frown
while he is in town
He’s gonna get trod on
so he betta switch his head on
or he’ll be drop dead Fred
who is a dead head

Sparkles!

by Aimee & Kurtis

There are sparkles in the night
And the moon’s shining bright
There’s no need to shed a tear
Unless you want to show some fear

There are sparkles in the night
No need for any fright
Because your daddy is here
Giving you love and cheer

So merry christmas to all you out there
Just sit back and relax and enjoy a ginger beer

I Killed a Man

2
by Ptolemy Bowen aged 12

The five-nines bellowing at the mob of soldiers
trudging away from the horrors of shells.

Ruby red blood bubbles beaming in the blazing heat.
Nationless corpses littering the blood-shed battlefield.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a German soldier popped out of his trench.
BANG!
He was gone. Headshot, but the celebrations in my head caused something, something else, something horrible.
My best friend had been shot, his last words were, “Fight for King and Country”.

The horrors weren’t over. The ground started rumbling. The whole legion came storming towards the gas masks.

Gas!
Gas!
Someone shouted.

One left. One not enough.
Shall I live or shall I die, that’s the question. “I’m sorry,” I said.
I quickly put on the gas mask, his gas corrupted lungs, his froth filled mouth will haunt me till I die.
Because I killed a man.

The Marriage

1
by Bhavya Das aged 6

There was a marriage in Mumbai
We went there
The first day we had lots of fun
And ate lots of buns
We got to ride in a bus
It was so relaxing
The next day
We again went to the marriage
It was totally different than the other one
We ate cutlets
And had lots of fun
The next day
We went to the beach
Called beach Chaupati
In the afternoon we again went to a marriage
This time it was the best marriage
It was so big
We danced and ate the best food ever
It was like a fairy tale
The last day came
When we were leaving
We were so happy to go home
We went in a flight in the air
It was SO SO much fun!

Nursery Rhymes

by Harshita Das aged 10

Sometimes I am Tommy Stout
Just pulling the cat out
And sometimes I am Aunt Polly
Putting the kettle on the stout
Sometimes I am Jack
Rolling down the hill
And sometimes I
Pretend to be little Jill
Sometimes I am Johnny
Saying yes or no
Sometimes I am one of the three kittens
And to the park I go
Sometimes I am twinkling in the sky
Being the little star
Leaving the people wondering
What we really are
Sometime I am one of the monkeys
Which are jumping on the bed
Sometimes I am Humpty
Falling off the wall, and bumping my head
Sometimes I am Santa Claus
Jingling my bell
Sometimes I am Miss Polly
Playing with my doll
Sometimes I am in the garden
With my little bouncing ball
Sometimes I am Johnny Thin
Putting the pussy, in the well
Sometimes I am Mary
With a lamb, following around
Sometimes I am teddy
Just touching the ground
Sometimes I am someone
Selling a hot cross bun
Sometimes I am one of three pigs
Just having some fun
Sometimes I am Johnny’s sister
Politely asking the rain to go away
Sometimes I am the rocking horse
Crying Neigh! Neigh!
Sometime I am Miss Muffet
Eating my porridge with my tea
But the very funny and strange thing is
I am never me!!!

School

Why do we have to go to school I often say
We have multiple things we can learn from in our day to day
Famous people on insta, hasbins who have lost the plot
TV stars, cartoon characters there are many more…but I forgot
I told my mum this information after school one day
She said, “If you don’t go to school i’ll slap your bum,
‘cos I’ll have to pay!”
I walked away with a sad look on my face .

Dominos

by Harshita Das aged 10

Whenever I feel sad
Dominos makes my day
Such tasty pizzas
Being served in a tray
There is cheese pizza with no toppings
Or a chicken sliced pizza, as tasty as can be
I absolutely LOVE pizza
As you can probably see
Then after a pizza, I love a snack
Like a garlic bread or two
YUM YUM YUMMY!!!
It’s too good to be true
And I LOVE the idea of mixing chocolate and pizza
And I never mind a few
And I am sure
You wouldn’t mind one or two
Would you???

Jack McSnail

Once there was a snail
Who delivered some mail,
He had loads of books
About professional cooks.

His name was Jack
He left a trail of black,
Had his head shaped like a bow
He was very, very slow

With his fancy clothes
And a tummy full of bread loaves,
Hated cress
Never wore a dress!

The Night Is…

0
by George Poppe aged 9

The night is…

A black blanket covering the world
A wall keeping the light out
A battle between light and dark
A place where nocturnal creatures come to life
A time for young animals to play
Time for predators to devour their prey
A time when leaves fall and kiss the ground
A time when a sparkling moon rules over fireworks and bonfires

A time when I am tucked up in my cosy red bed
safe from the night
