A.R. Reader Trip to Cappa
AR readers had a fantastic day at Cappa full of sunshine, ice lollies, fun, laughter, paddling, zip lining, see-sawing, swinging and even a seaweed Bob Marley kept it reggae.
We are learning about the Chinese zodiac symbols in SESE. Did you know that this year is the year of the dog!The zodiac that I think suits me the best would be a penguin... A penguin is intelligent, curious, creative and have an all round good sense of humour. Social interaction is key to a penguin’s idea of a good life. The two most important things to a penguin are creativity and family. A penguin gives off the impression of being weak, powerless or socially awkward. But if you really think about it, you’re dead wrong.By Darren

An Unusual Christmas
My Mam, Dad, brother and I were all in bed fast asleep. We got up at 9:30am and raced down stairs, but there was a HUMONGOUS mistake!!!!! I had received my cousins presents and they had received mine!! I rang my cousins in New Zealand immediately and exclaimed "Do not open your presents!!" They asked "Why not?" I replied "If you look at the gift tags they read to Lillian from Santa." “Oh they actually do,” my cousins replied. “Yes and the presents here say ‘to .............. from Santy’.
Then I realised that there was a letter from Santy and a letter from my fairies. Santa's letter read “I am so so so sorry about the mix up of the presents, love Santa xx.” He had wrote at the end "Ps It was your fairies that told me.” After I went to check in on my fairies there was a note and it said "We hope that your presents will be back at your house A.S.A.P. So the plan was that Santa and his reindeers would make a special journey from New Zealand to Ireland. This meant we wouldn’t get our presents until after Christmas. However there was an even bigger problem which is that Santa has wrote to all of us explaining that all the reindeer are very ill, that they are actually so sick, the vet can’t even find a diagnosis. Santa was extremely worried at this stage. If none of his reindeer get better in a day or too, we would not have presents for Christmas. He was so determined to find a solution. We all wrote a letter back to the man himself and this is what it read, "Dear Santa, we all are very hopeful that our little friends will have a speedy recovery, you don't need to worry about a thing we will find a replacement.”
We all put our heads together and thought very hard. We did not find a flying reindeer, the ones we found all wanted to stay on solid ground. We travelled further and eventually we found our replacement. We laughed, we cried but we said "It’s better than nothing.” We found our replacement and it was a flying .................GIRAFFE. We were so excited. We sent him in the next day delivery cargo and off he went. We just hoped he would get there on time, in time so that all the kids all over the world would get their presents.
Santa wrote back telling us all was fine and that he had received our replacement reindeer/giraffe. He was happy, excited, nervous, amused but most of all he was nervous. I suppose I would be too but it was worth a chance. He said if you all go to bed early on Friday night, at 9 o clock the latest you should receive gifts. We all wrote back saying "THANK YOU SO MUCH.” We were more excited now than ever before. After three weeks of waiting the wait was finally over, we received all our presents they were finally delivered to the right house by the mysterious reindeer who were happy to help. We had after all the most UNUSUAL CHRISTMAS EVER.

We have written stories as Gaeilge called ‘An Elf ar an tSeilf’. Hope you enjoy reading and listening to the exciting adventures the Elf on the shelf has been up to!!
An Elf ar an tSeilf
An Mháirt a bhí ann. Lá seaca a bhí ann. Bhí mé ag siúl le mo mhadra. Chuaigh mé go dtí an pháirc. Nuair a shroich mé abhaile chuaigh mé go dtí mo mhála scoile chun mo chuid obair bhaile a fháil, ach, bhí m’obair bhaile imithe!!!
Chuardaigh mé i ngach áit; sa chófra, ar an bhfuinneog agus ar an tseilf, ach, ar deireadh fuair mé m’obair bhaile.
Bhí mo chuid obair bhaile ar mo leaba ach bhí sé críochnaithe. D’fhéach mé ar mo bhileog matamaitic, scríobh an elf Q1) 6X6=12, Q2) 8X8=16. Ó an elf ar an tseilf amaideach.

We have been learning about anti-bullying in class. We have written raps to promote 'Be a buddy, not a bully.'
Mr. Bully
Please Mr. Bully what have I done?
Your little games I don't like them, they're not any fun.
I don't like the way you call me names,
The way you laugh I burst into flames.
Dear Mr. Victim,
It's the bully who's wrong, you're not the one who's doing anything wrong.
Everyone is laughing, but not at you, they're laughing at the bully 'cause he must be treated badly too.

Aon Scéal Agat?
Faisean Paisean
An Satharn a bhí ann. Shiúl mé isteach sa seó Faisean Paisean. Lá sneachta a bhí ann. Chonaic mé gúna ildaite deas agus chuala mé Grace, Emma agus Clara ag caint. Ach bhí Abby ag gáire.
Shiúl mé anon go dtí Grace, Emma, Clara agus Abby. “Haileo!” arsa mise. “Haigh!” arsa Emma agus Clara. “Conas atá tú Saoirse?” arsa Grace. “Tá mé go maith agus tú féin?” arsa mise. “Tá mé ar fheabhas, go raibh maith agat.” arsa Grace.
Bhí Grace, Clara, Emma agus mise ag ceannach éadaí deasa ach bhí Abby ag rá “Slán cailíní!”. “Slán leat!” arsa mo chairde agus mise.
Bhí sé leathuair tar éis a cúig. Bhí seó faisean ar siúl. Chonaic mé Abby ar an stáitse. “Haigh Abby!” arsa Emma agus mise.
Ansin bhí Emma, Grace, Abby, Clara agus mise ag siúl go dtí mo theach. Bhí mé an-sásta.
Le Saoirse
Faisean Paisean
An Mháirt a bhí ann. Lá breá a bhí ann. Bhí Paisean Faisean ar siúl. Bhí gúna cailín go hálainn agus ildaite. Bhí ‘make up’ ar na gcailíní agus bhí a ngruaig go hálainn ar fad. Bhí gach cailín ag caitheamh bróga deasa airde. Bhí na bróga dubh, oráiste, dearg, glas agus bán dearg. Bhí siad go deas.
Tháinig mé isteach sa siopa. “Conas atá tú?” “Tá mé ag lorg blús bán.” arsa mise. “Tá blús iontach againn duit!” arsa an siopadóir. Thosaigh mé ag bualadh bos nuair a chonaic mé an blús ban mar bhí sé go hálainn ar fad.
Dúirt mé “Go raibh maith agat.” “Slán! arsa an siopadóir”

Púca sa Rang
An Chéadaoin a bhí ann. Bhí sé ceomhar agus fliuch. Bhíomar ag déanamh Gaeilge. Go tobann, tháinig béic ait on gcófra. Ach, ní raibh aon duine sa chófra.
Thosaigh an múinteoir ag screadadh. Léim na páistí suas ar na gcathaoireacha. Cheap siad go raibh púca sa rang.
Ansin shiúl an múinteoir go dtí an cófra. D’oscail sí an doras. Tháinig cat dubh amach. Thosaigh na páistí ag gáire.
Le Aisling
Púca sa Rang
An Aoine a bhí ann. Lá fuar a bhí ann. Go tobann tháinig béic ait ón mbosca lóin.
Chonaic Saoirse púca ag eitilt. Is beag nár thit sí i laige. Rith Abby amach an doras agus bhí sí ag crith le heagla. Bhí sí chomh bán le púca. Bhí mise bán le scanradh.
Ansin bhí púca ag eitilt amach an fhuinneog. Bhí spórt agus spraoi againn.

Cappa Playground
My favourite place to play is Cappa playground. It has the most beautiful view. You can hear the gentle waves lapping against the rocky shore. It also has phenomenal swings, slides etc. It is an extremely fun place to play.
By Molly
Where I like to Play
I love to play in Cappa playground. Sometimes I’d stand at the railing and just stare at the beautiful water flowing in and out. Sometimes I’d go down to the water and throw stones in and watch the ripples flow.
By Brooke
Kilrush Playground
I love to play in Kilrush playground because it is so fun, it has fun slides, swings, monkey bars and a very fun zip line. It also has an amazing pirate ship and a wonderful tree house.

Carnival
Tyson and I were at the fun carnival, it was Friday. We went on the remix, it spun us around so fast. When we got off we were so dizzy, then we went on the bumpers. Someone crashed into me and Tyson. When we got off the bumpers we went to Supervalu and got a pack of match attax. I got Aubameyang. Then we got hungry and we went to Coffeys. Tyson got a curry chip and a battered sausage, then he got a kinder bueno milkshake. I got a curry cheese chip and a oreo milkshake.
It was five o ’clock, we were walking down by Supervalu and met jack. We went into Supervalu. We all got a drink and a pack of match attax road to Russia, I got limited edition Ronaldo, Jack got limited edition Griezmann and Tyson got fans favourite Coleman. Then we went back to the carnival with Jack. We all went on the remix. Tyson felt sick after he got off, he went behind the tree and puked, he got a bottle of seven up then he felt better. Tyson went on the bumpers, he crashed into everything, he was such a bad driver. Jack and I were laughing at him. We hid up a tree. He couldn’t find us but then Jack and I started laughing. Then he saw us, I jumped down but Jack was afraid to jump down. Then Tyson and I caught him. Jack had a broken hand me and Tyson got into so much trouble.

Toilet Problem
During one fine morning Jenita told the teacher that there was a weird smell in the toilet. Vicktoria and Sarah came to see with the teacher. It was in school on Saturday at 10 : 30 AM. The teacher said that there was a problem in the girls’ toilet. The girls were very, very fussy. They had to fix it.
The girls went in. What they saw, left them speechless. Behind the toilet, was a dead rat, in the corners were webs, on the walls were daddy long leg spiders, in the air was… the smell of revolting sweat!!!!! The girls ran out of the bathroom screaming. Everyone was wondering what was going on. “You would not like to go in there!” Said Jenita. “Close the door!” screeched Vicktoria.
“Wooh you don’t need to make a big fuss about it.” Said Sarah. “Have you seen whats in there?” replied Vicktoria. “I came in with you!”said Sarah.
“Oh yeah” replied Vicktoria. “You 3, can you go and get the hoover?” suggested teacher. “Yes Miss” replied the trio. The trio went to get the hoover. “We got the hoover” said the trio. “Ok, now hoover the place” said teacher.
“Call Martin Miss.” commented a student. The teacher called Martin. We waited. 10 minutes later. Finaly Martin came, with a plunger. “Why do we need a plunger?” asked Jenita. “Because I wanna!” said Martin . “What?” asked Vicktoria. “I don’t know!” repeated Martin again. “Ok can you just figure out what’s wrong with the toilet and, you know, fix it?!” yelled Vicktoria. Ok, ok ill fix it” said Martin. 2 days later. “All fixed now!” said Martin, with a smile. “Thanks Martin!” said the whole class. The toilet was now clean and fresh.

The Secret about Sports Day!
It was an extremely sunny July morning, all of my classmates were excited for sports day! Everyone wore sun hats, some people wore sun glasses, while others were putting on sunscreen and some were practicing with their spud and spoon!
The teacher came into the class and told us to settle down, so we can go outside and start the three legged race! We were all lining up and were on our way out, when I realized that Sarah B and I left our water bottles behind. When we went back to the class we heard mysterious giggling!
When lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
When we got closer to the giggling we noticed a suspicious hole under the library. When I touched the hole I got sucked in, then Sarah jumped in too because she didn’t know what to do. Inside the hole there were three little creatures, when they saw us they screamed like AAAARRRRGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Then one of them whispered slowly “We come in peace, I’m Beep, this is Meep and that’s Peep.” “Oh am I’m Sarah and I’m Sarah too", we said anxiously. They started to giggle again. “What are you doing?” we asked.
You see we’re the creeps, we make all the events that are on go wrong! See we just made your friend Maria fall!! Sarah B giggled but I shouted “No Stop!!” “Why are you doing this?” I demanded. “Because we are stuck under here and have nothing else to do.” they said sadly.
So I started to think. “I know the perfect place for you to go!” I exclaimed. “Where!?” the creeps shouted excitedly. “You can stay in our insect hotel, or you could stay in my room” suggested Sarah B. So we brought the creeps outside to the insect hotel and they lived a joyful life.
The moral of this story is to never forget your water bottle!

The Mysterious Doll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was a pleasant sunny day, a man and his wife moved into a nice but old house. They had no children at all. The couple used to own a big mansion but the rent was too high. They went in, it was very dusty and dim. Upstairs there was a bright pink light shining, so they went upstairs to find out...
As they were walking upstairs they heard something like a maniac laughing. Well it was actually a doll laughing. They went inside the room to check it out. In front of them was a doll laughing frantically. The doll held a mysterious object, also super sharp teeth, his head was tilted to the right, and said darkly...”My name is Fido. The man shivered. Beside him was a doll with no head, many dolls without heads... THEIR HEADS WERE ON THE SHELVES IN THE ROOM!!!!!! Fido was on the bed suddenly the man noticed that Fido had his eyes crossed!!!!!!!!!!
The man barred of the door, his wife screamed unspeakable words at Fido. But everything was just fine or so they thought. BAD things were about to happen!
It was a nice sunny morning, the man and his wife had forgotten about it. Tomorrow was a violently stormy day “JAMES!!!!!” screeched the poor man’s wife in terror. “What Lilly what!!” “It’s it’s-““It’s WHAT!!!!” It’s FIDO!!!!!!!” And there was Fido on the couch watching and humming something to himself. But all they heard was DEATH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! “Oh no” Said Lilly. WHY DON’T YOU DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The next day Fido was there again. And again and again so on and so on. The following day the next door neighbours were dead. Oh the next thing was so harsh Lilly could hardly bare it. Oh I suppose I should tell you. Fido had chased James away. “AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!” screamed Lilly. Poor James. Lilly ran after him.

THE MATCH DAY
On Saturday the two Josh’s, Jack, Shane, Jimmy, my Dad and I all went to the Dublin to see Ireland vs England in the Aviva stadium, on the way we stopped in Barak O’ Bama’s plaza. When we got to Dublin we looked around for a bit, we went for dinner in Milano’s and then dad brought us to see Croke Park, after a while dad said we had to go to the hotel to check in. When we checked in we changed in to our Ireland jerseys and went down to the reception to sit down for a bit. Kick off was at 7:45 and its 5:00 now so dad said we have to go to the Red Cow so we can get the Luas to the Aviva. Our stop was right outside the 3 Arena and we had small bit to walk from there. Once we got to the Aviva we got sweets, popcorn, and fizzy drinks. By the time we got our seat it was 7:40, when we got our seats the players where coming out soon. The players came out and the stadium was so ear-splitting with cheers, Ireland sang first. Then England sang.
Ireland had kick off and Shane Long took it but England took the ball off Ireland literally straight away, they sent a long ball up to their strikers, Harry Kane passed to Marcus Rashford and Rashford scored with only 4 minutes into the match. So Ireland had to take tip again but again England took the ball and sent it up to Rashford, Rashford shoots again but it’s by Randolph but Harry Kane scored the rebound, its 2-0. It stayed 2-0 for the rest of the first half. At Half time Ireland made a sub change and that was the one and only Robbie Brady! So England took tip and this time Ireland took the ball off England and Brady did a 1-2 with Long and then SHOT AND SCORED!!!!!!!BRADY SCORED!!!!!!!yaaaaa. So England took tip and passed it around and then Ireland made a tackle. McCarthy gave a true ball to small Hoolahan who was dragged down by Stones. It’s a free to Ireland and Brady’s going to take it, Brady shot and BRADY SCORED!!!!!!! ITS 2-2, it’s the 84th minute. So England took tip and Ireland robbed the ball, Ireland worked the ball up to the goal area, Shane Long with the ball he’s tripped up by Stones, Stones got a red!!!!AND IT’S A PENALTY!!!!!!!Brady’s stepping up BRADY SHOOTS BRADY SCORES!!!!!!!!ITS FULL-TIME IRELAND WON 3-2 WITH BRADY GETTING A HAT-TRICK.
On the Luas all the Irish were singing joyful songs. When we got to the hotel we had a divine dinner, then after a long fun-packed day we went to bed.

Kick off was at 7:45 and its 5:00 now so dad said we have to go to the Red Cow so we can get the Luas to the Aviva. Our stop was right outside the 3 Arena and we had small bit to walk from there. Once we got to the Aviva we got sweets, popcorn, and fizzy drinks. By the time we got our seat it was 7:40, when we got our seats the players where coming out soon. The players came out and the stadium was so ear-splitting with cheers, Ireland sang first. Then England sang.
Ireland had kick off and Shane Long took it but England took the ball off Ireland literally straight away, they sent a long ball up to their strikers, Harry Kane passed to Marcus Rashford and Rashford scored with only 4 minutes into the match. So Ireland had to take tip again but again England took the ball and sent it up to Rashford, Rashford shoots again but it’s by Randolph but Harry Kane scored the rebound, its 2-0. It stayed 2-0 for the rest of the first half. At Half time Ireland made a sub change and that was the one and only Robbie Brady! So England took tip and this time Ireland took the ball off England and Brady did a 1-2 with Long and then SHOT AND SCORED!!!!!!!BRADY SCORED!!!!!!!yaaaaa. So England took tip and passed it around and then Ireland made a tackle. McCarthy gave a true ball to small Hoolahan who was dragged down by Stones. It’s a free to Ireland and Brady’s going to take it, Brady shot and BRADY SCORED!!!!!!! ITS 2-2, it’s the 84th minute. So England took tip and Ireland robbed the ball, Ireland worked the ball up to the goal area, Shane Long with the ball he’s tripped up by Stones, Stones got a red!!!!AND IT’S A PENALTY!!!!!!!Brady’s stepping up BRADY SHOOTS BRADY SCORES!!!!!!!!ITS FULL-TIME IRELAND WON 3-2 WITH BRADY GETTING A HAT-TRICK.
On the Luas all the Irish were singing joyful songs. When we got to the hotel we had a divine dinner, then after a long fun-packed day we went to bed.
THE LONG WALK
I was outside with MAM, JASON, AMY, it was on Sunday and I was in Monmoore. Misty was lying down and I picked her up, then we went home. Afterwards Jason wasn’t content in the house, so I put on Postman Pat the Movie for him. Then I went to play soccer and soon it was dinner time, it was yummy. We played. Later I went to bed and in the night I was asleep, in the morning I woke because I heard Jason messing with the stones, I stopped Jason from doing that. I was happy.

THE JOURNEY TO THE 3 ARENA
It was a Friday morning, my dad and I got up very early because we were going to the 3 arena in Dublin. So we got in the car and dad started driving at EXACTLY 10 o’clock. We were going to the 3 arena because WWE was on tonight and wrestling is one of my favourite sports, also I got tickets off of Santa Claus. Then an hour and a half later we were well on the way having county Offaly. We stopped in Barak O’Bama’s Plaza to get food. I had a super mac, so did my dad. I had a plain burger with chips, my dad had a lettuce burger and chips. When we were done we set of again for another hour and a quarter.
WWE is on in the 3 Arena twice a year. But anyway we were now in Dublin and we were going to the airport for a while. When we got to the colossal airport in Dublin City there was already planes taking off and landing. We saw Ryanair, Aer lingus, Iberia and Turkish Airlines plus a few more planes. After that we went to Jane, my aunty’s house, to wait until we would go to the 3 arena. Jane was a teacher. When we got there we sat outside because it was a beautiful day. I had a muffin she made plus a glass of 7up, it was DELICIOUS. Then we had dinner, it was a lovely spaghetti bolognese with garlic bread as well as a glass of water. Dad had the same dinner as me except he didn’t have water he had WINE. FINALLY we were finished dinner and rushed out from Jane’s house to the car.
We were on the way to the 3 arena FINALLY. But we got delayed 10 minutes because of the traffic. So then we were nearly there and my dad said we will get out here and walk to the 3 arena. It only took 2 minutes to walk from were Jane dropped us off. Then I ran over to this table outside the 3 arena were people were selling class hats and fidget spinners and I bought both of them for a price of 10 euro, which is great value. Then we lined up to go into the enormous building. So then we got checked in case we had dangerous items. When we got in there we headed to the arena. Then we looked for our seats they were block G row 42 seat 128 and 129. The first match tonight was a fatal 4 way for the RAW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP. In one corner was Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows in the next corner was Enzo Amore and Big Cass. In the other corner is Shemus and Cesaro and last but not least the reigning RAW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS The Hardy Boyz. THE HARDY BOYZ RETAINED THERE GOLD WHAT A TREMONDOUS MATCH.
After that terrific show we were collected by Jane and drove back to her house. Then when we got back we all watch the Late Late Show. Afterwards we went to bed for the night. In the morning I woke up at 10 O’clock I went down stairs and saw Jane cooking a fry, it looked delicious. There were rashers, eggs, sausages, toast and pudding. When the fry was ready I was into to the kitchen in a flash. It didn’t take long for me to eat it. It was divine. Suddenly we thought of an idea to go to IKEA. When we were there we looked around, it took so long to walk around.
But when we were done in IKEA we drove back to KILRUSH in Clare and relaxed for the rest of the evening. What a weekend!!

Search!!!
One Saturday morning I got up to go to help with breakfast. I went along my usual routine; wash face, get dressed, brush my teeth, brush hair, you know the normal routine. I got ready and I was on the way down the stairs, I smelled the usual lovely fresh pancakes, pudding, rashers, egg, sausage, toast and much more delicious food.
My Mam didn’t work she was a house Mam but she was amazingly smart and I don’t know why she didn’t want a job. When we asked her she said that she didn’t want to because she likes to stay home with us. Wait, I didn’t tell you how much siblings I had! Ok so I have seven sisters and seven brothers! I know I know I have a big amount of brothers and sisters! My dad is a farmer so my brothers normally are down there working hard!!! Anyway today it was my sister Anna, Annabel, me, and Andria’s turn to help Mam with the breakfast, washing laundry and everything else. Tomorrow it would be Annie, Aoife, Amy and little Ave’s turn. Ave is the youngest, she was three.
Anyway back to the story. I got down the stairs and saw them cooking, I was the last one down because the boys were down farming! So I sat down at the table and helped myself! When I was finished I helped my sisters to clean up. We had the house spotless! So Mam let us out to town before we got dinner ready. Mam said that Anna was in charge because she the oldest. We all had to hold hands with someone and Anna was in charge of little Ave. As soon as we all had our coats on Mam gave Anna some money in case we needed it. We all set off to go to town.
When we reached the town we went in to a toy store. We all looked inside, there was train sets, dolls ,sweets ,teddies and much more incredible things!!! Ave wandered over to the dolls while the rest of us went to buy sweets!!! Ave saw a doll on the front window, she climbed over to the doll and started to play. I asked Anna were Ave was, oh said Anna Ave is over there where the teddies are. I ran over and saw that Ave wasn’t there!
I ran back over to Anna and told her the horrible news, “Ave isn’t there!!!” “Yes she is!” replied Anna, “She is over there” “No” I cried, “She’s not!!!” Anna ran to where she saw Ave last but she wasn’t there!! Anna called quickly to the rest of the girls and told them the dreadful news. We all searched the toy store but they could not find her!! Then Anna said that she can’t be in the store so we packed up and left. As we passed the front window we heard a laugh, a sweet cute little laugh, a laugh that we were used to.
It was Aves laugh!!! Suddenly they all looked at the front window and saw Ava laughing and playing with the doll that she saw coming in!!! We all yelled with joy that we found our amazing little sister!!! We all ran behind the window and saw her playing happily. When Ave saw that we had come for her she didn’t want to leave the doll!! So in the end we ended up buying it! When we got back to the house we told Mam, dad and the boys the story. They all started to laugh so much we almost fell on the dirty ground [like in peppa pig!] Giggle giggle!!!

Rumble in the Jungle!
Skylar and her BFF Éireann were on a tour in the amazing Jungle in August. They were really looking forward to the tour! The forecast wasn’t too bad for the day but there was meant to be a thunderstorm later. “I hope that are back when the storm hits” said Éireann, “Don’t worry Éireann” exclaimed Skylar, “They’re professionals, what can go wrong?” Everyone for tour 1 report to the main office please” shouted the loudspeaker, “Let’s go!” said Éireann.
Skylar and Éireann ran to the main office and our tour began... “Now” said the tour guide. “We are passing a very rare tree.” The girls were so cheerful! Suddenly minuscule drops of rain began to fall from the sky. The drops got heavier and heavier. Suddenly somebody screamed “It’s the thunderstorm!” Everybody ran in different directions OH NO! Skylar and Éireann were lost in the jungle in the middle of a thunderstorm! “What can we do?” asked Éireann, but for once Skylar said nothing!
“We must build a hut” exclaimed Skylar. “But how” wondered Éireann. “You go collect firewood and I’ll find something sticky!” So the brave children kept their cool waiting for assistance. Skylar made the roof and Éireann made a blazing fire, they huddled together waiting for the eye of the storm, sadly that didn’t come so the girls huddled together once more and they fell fast asleep...
Suddenly they were awakened by sirens and bright lights “Are we saved?” asked Éireann “I think so” whispered Skylar. They peeked out of the hut and Skylar’s mam was crying “My child where is my child?” “I’m here mam yelled Skylar. Suddenly Éireann emerged from the hut, “Mam?” she said “I’m here Éireann” said her mam, and I am happy that you both are safe and sound!

Problems with a Teacher
It was on one of those days when you think it will be a phenomenally good day but it never is, that was today. But there is a remarkable spot of magic to make me smile. Well here we go to school. That is when I saw Mr. Bossy Pants and my friends Vicky the two Sarah’s and Maria............
OK class. GET OUT YOUR MATHS BOOKS. And start from page 1 to the last page. “Yes Sir.” we all replied. So that is when I passed the note to Vicky, it said {Mr. Bossy Pants is so mean, do you want to make a new name for him?} I had a note now it said “Sure why not, but do you want to ask our friends too!” “Of course.” I gasped, a little loud [TOO LOUD]...............
I got detention after school, like really, he could have just wrote a note in my diary! “So what the nickname?” I said. “What about Mr. Meaner?” I suggested. “GREAT!” they both answered, “he is so mean he does not give us P.E and he gives us EXTRA homework on Fridays, that’s just so mean. I’m just saying!.............”
When we got back to class the principal was in the classroom. She said “your teacher is fired so your new teacher is Ms. Eustace” She WAS kind! J

Headers and Volleys
It was a lovely day, the day before the Communion. My mum was giving some big pizza slicer for the bog. I saw Russell and Tyson and went after them. We started talking and I said to call up for Josh and then went the short way to Tyson’s house. We went over the gate, Josh went the long way. We jumped down and went in to Tyson’s house. Tasha, Tyson’s mum, was cutting my sisters hair for my sister’s Communion.
We came out and started. Last one to the goals is keeper. It was Russell. Russell was in. Tyson scored a banger. Russell was down to two lives. Tyson tried to header it but Russell clean catched it. Tyson’s in. Five minutes later Josh scored. Two minutes later I scored. Tyson’s down to one life left.
Oh my god we only have twenty minutes left. The time flew. We kept playing headers and volleys. We stared talking for ten minutes and then we had five minutes left. My mum was late and we had an ten extra minutes. My mum picked up Josh ,Tyson and I and we went to Supervalu. We each got two packs of match attacks. I got hundred club Sanchez, Josh got man of the match Pogba and Tyson got magic moments Dele Ali. Tyson said “I’m getting another pack” because he got no one, he went back in a got silver limited edition Kevin de Bruyne. Tyson went all over town screaming “I got Kevin de Bruyne.” Josh and I were so embarrassed.
Afterwards we went to my house, we played cross bar challenge. I hit it the first time, it took Tyson and Josh a while to hit it. Finally Tyson hit it and Josh and I got to hit Josh with the soccer ball. Tyson and I hit Josh so hard he hit his head of the wall. Josh started crying and he ended up with a broken nose. Tyson and I got in so much trouble.

The Midnight Walk
On Friday/Saturday my family and I all did the midnight walk, and I mean all my family, my cousins, my aunts, my uncle-in law and David my aunt’s boyfriend. I was delighted got to see my cousins and walk with them.
I felt spectacular, especially when we were walking passed the sea, I could hear the soothing sound of the waves hitting the rocks.
We passed our house and my aunt was driving behind so that if my brother got tired he could hop in with her, surprisingly he didn’t! Afterwards I got hot chocolate and a scone.
I would not change a thing.

Nervous
If nervous had a colour it would be smoky grey, It would taste like a humongous gulp of salty water suffocating my lungs so I can’t breathe, It would sound like the voice of doom inside my head saying you will fail, It would look like a bleak, rainy day full of worry and sadness, It would smell like smoke burning down my gateway to happiness, It would feel like I’m trapped and can’t get out. By Sarah Blunnie – 4th class “This is RELIEF But then comes relief.... If relief had a colour it would be a light purple, It would smell like primroses were picked especially for you, It would feel like a humongous sack of rocks has been lifted off your back, It would taste like a spoonful of sugar that you crammed into your mouth, It would sound like your beautiful new puppy yapping and whimpering when out of its box, It would look like an amazing sunny day where flowers bloom and children laugh, And it makes me wonder why I was nervous in the first place! By Sarah Blunnie- 4th class Happiness If happiness had a colour it would be light green. Happiness feels like fireworks in my heart. Happiness is when a smile goes from one cheek to another. Happiness smells like fresh roses growing in glistening water. Happiness tastes like your favourite type of candy bursting in your mouth. Happiness sounds like cheerful people laughing and playing together happily. By Maria Wallace – 4th class Emotions Excitement is purple It tastes like sweet sugar pops plus chocolate ice-cream Happy is yellow It sounds like me bouncing It smells like pretty flowers It tastes like yummy cupcakes It looks like the nice and bright sun It feels like my birthday Love is hot pink It smells like freshly picked flowers It taste like sugary cotton candy from the fair It sounds like laughter all around you It feels like being so close that you can hear that person’s thumping heart Love is the passion that is shared with the world By Alex Reidy and Jordan O’Brien – 3rd class Colourful Thoughts Yellow thoughts make people laugh, Red thoughts hold bad stuff inside, Brown thoughts are bored out of their minds, Black thoughts make people fight, Pink thoughts make families stay together, Green thoughts make everyone have fun, Blue thoughts make you cry with laughter. By Jack Flavin, Josh O’Brien and Josh Malone – 4th class THE JOYS OF HAPPINESS Happiness is the feeling you get when you give someone something. Or the daily good deed many people gain happiness from. Some might say happiness is the happy smile on a loved one’s face -When they have not seen you in ages. I think happiness is whatever you think. Because happiness is happiness and no one can change that. By Darren Ryan – 3rd class Happiness All Around Happiness is bright yellow. It sounds like children laughing in the park. It smells like beautiful daisies in the garden. It feels like hugging a kind friend. It looks like a rising sun in the early morning sky.

LOVE is when your family gets together and have phenomenal fun. LOVE is when my mum makes me delicious and scrumptious buns. LOVE is when my dad and I cut the grass together. By Josh Malone – 4th class LOVE Love is when you are having fun with the people you love. Love is when you go to the cinema to see a funny movie with your family. Love is laughter and being yourself.

BY BOBBY CAREY- 3rd Class Frienemy Why bully and make enemies? When you can be kind and make friends! Making enemies just makes you frown, making friends turns that upside down! Bullying gets you into trouble, but when you make friends you can go to the park and blow a delightful bubble! Don’t be mean instead be a king or queen! So don’t bully, make friends, and you might end up writing a poem! By Sarah McAnespie – 4th class Everyone Has a Right If one flower was blue and a second flower was pink. I wouldn’t just pick one, I would have to think. 1. They both living. 2. They are both flowers. 3. They are both pretty. So I’d pick both. No matter where you come from, no matter what language you speak we are all human aren’t we. We all have feelings. We all have a right to live a happy life. We all have the right to have friends. So in life be fair, no matter whom you are. By Molly Danaher – 3rd class LOVE IS Love is when your little dog and cat jump up on top of you after a long day. Love is when your parents give you a tremendous hug. Love is to live laugh and love. By Lillian McMahon – 3rd class Happy is for brightness Happy is for brightness. It sounds like people chatting in happiness. It smells like beaming light coming down to your face. It tastes like people having stupendous fun. It looks like people laughing and having joyful fun. It feels like soft and sweet candy floss. By Grace Mc Inerney and Wiktoria Abram -3rd class Embarrassment Embarrassment is the colour red Embarrassment smells like dripping sweat Embarrassment feels like silliness Embarrassment looks like a red face Embarrassment sounds like gulping By Caoimhe and George – 3rd class Angriness Angriness is the colour RED It is a horrible feeling It sounds like lots and lots of people annoying you When people annoy you, you get mad So when you feel mad, think about all the good things in life and forget the bad things Count to three breath in and out and say you’re sorry to the person you hurt And then you and the other person might be great friends! So next time you feel angry think about it and you might feel better! By Saoirse Coleman – 3rd class Fear Fear is around us, it is with us when we are afraid. We always feel it in our bones shattering, making you scared, afraid, worried. Fear is a drop of sadness coming from your eyes and making you have the worst thought you ever had. Fear is a bad thought filled with so much worrying and unwanted emotions. By Luke Doyle and Tom O’Dea -3rd class EMOTIONS Angriness feels like a big black cloud Jealousy makes you want to scream out loud Sadness feels like a tragic time But luckily happiness is here to help you unwind Love is when the whole world comes together Laughter is when you get tickled by a feather By Vicktoria Kroejeva, Jenita VargheseV and Sarah McAnespie - 4th class Sad and Happy Sadness is like a bitter and sour lemon It’s like a stormy night where the clouds cover the moon and waves crash against the wall like an eager whale trying to knock it down. But into each life some rain must fall, some days must be dark and dreary. But in all of the sad days when you feel like it’s just you against the world, there will always be a speck of light to brighten your day and make you smile - Like eating an ice-cream on a sunny summer day, and when someone tells you a hilarious joke it makes you feel like it is going to be a good day. So next time you feel bad think about the happy things in life and forget about the bad things in life. By Alice Kavanagh (4th class) and Molly Danaher (3rd class) |

Go for Gold
I am here in Rio at the start of the Olympic sailing final 2016! I’m overanxious to be here but I’m also overjoyed. I can see the smooth glistening water. I can hear the cheering from the overexcited crowd. Suddenly, a strong gust of wind causes my sail to collapse, then the loud horn beckons the start of the race.
I can’t compete with a broken sail. But then I remember my trainer’s words “If your sail collapses you just pull that rope!” So I then pull the rope and my sail jumps back into place. I was back in the race!!! I had a lot of work to do. With determination I caught up to my opponents. But suddenly I was in second place.
I saw the finish line. I passed out first place!!! I came first!! I saw the amazing Irish flag flying high above the rest. I was overjoyed to be standing on this amazing podium receiving my stupendous gold medal!!!
