Murphy's Visit

Tue 10 May 2016 Murphy

So today, there were lots of desks and chairs in the Emperors' classroom. Something was going on. Something called SATS. I had no idea what this meant, so Mum led me back to the library area and we settled there amongst all the books. Some children were practising their dancing in the hall opposite. That looked like great fun, but I'm not very co-ordinated so I just watched and enjoyed the music instead.

First of all I listened to Lord Brocktree, and heard about a short-eared owl called Udara Groundslay who can't fly, then I listened to Awful Auntie by David Walliams, where Stella told us that she survived eating the lurking death plant seeds and her awful aunt wanted to cheat her out of her inheritance.

Next I listened to Street Child by Berlie Doherty and heard about Jim who really wanted to be best friends with a boy called Shrimp but has to go and work for Grimy Nick.

Last today was Time Travelling With a Hamster. The hamster was called Alan Shearer - a much better name than Hammy or Fluffy, I think. Al, the boy in the story, had a special 12th birthday present from his beloved Grandpa Byron. It was a letter from Al's late father - a letter with a mission to travel back in time in a special machine, but you'll have to read it to find out what the mission was!

See you after half term.

Murphy's Visit

Hi there

So today I happily lay with Year 6, at the feet of Mum who sat on the Emperor's throne again.

I listened to one of the Astrosaur stories, where Damona the diceratops made bunny ears. Her full name is Damona Kumzin Furst - hahahaha!

Next I heard all about Grk. Grk is a stowaway dog who ate chicken pie in the back of a van. Mmmmmmm, chicken pie ...

Then I listened to Gangsta Granny, which was great fun as Granny planned to steal the crown jewels in the Tower of London via the sewage system - yuk! Even I wouldn't like that smell! You'll have to read it to find out all about her cunning plan!

Football v Halterworth

Tue 03 May 2016

It was a great effort by Lockerley girls this afternoon against Halterworth. Both teams had to play-off against each other to determine who went through to the Hampshire Finals and unfortunately, despite playing their hearts out for 30 minutes, it wasn't to be for us.

The girls should be so proud of their efforts against a much bigger school with a much larger group of girls to choose from (their coach said he has 40 girls in his football club).

Well done to Sienna, Sophie, Tiffany, Taz, Isla, Annabel and Chloe.
