Week Three : Secrets

Shhhh, don't tell anyone but there was definitely something mysterious going on in the library last week.  According to my anonymous informants it involved lions, hidden diaries, pirate treasure and other strange and wonderful tales too shrouded in secrecy to even mention here.  The word is that there are some fantastic pieces nearing completion, so watch this space over the next few weeks!

Week Two: Poetry

From Shakespeare to Spike Milligan, poetry has been a huge part of writing, dealing with the funny, the serious and the down right strange. This week was an opportunity for the children to get those rhythmic pens beating on the page. Some of the children had never really read poems before whilst others had even written pieces of their own. The great aspect of this week's theme though was no matter if poetry was completely new to a Ninja or a regular part of their reading, they all got into the spirit of rhyme, rhythm and word wizardry. There were poems about cheese, poems about puppies and even a poem about a brother's smelly feet (eugghh!). So watch this space for the next bard of Britain.
