CHILD’S WORK

By Tiare Hunter—Year 4—Room 9

Yesterday Gloaming Hill went in flames of rage.  Everyone evacuated from Gloaming Hill.  The fire looked like souls coming out of the devil’s creepy hand.  Nan saw cracks in the ground.  When the fire stopped, nan saw a dead playground.

All book club orders are to be back at the school office by Friday 19 March.
