Loud shirt day was on Friday. Everyone either wore a
superhero costume or a bright top. Everyone brought in a
gold coin donation for the hearing house to help kids who
don’t hear as well as the rest of us.

On Thursday we went to the old tennis courts that are now
used for parking. We went round the back and we were
AMAZED at the sight. There were metal poles, screw, parts
of a clock, a plate and believe it or not a frying pan in the
wall! It was really weird. When we got back we made a story
about how we think it got there. We could make it up and we
could also use real things.
