Children's Stories

My favourite tree

A long time ago, there was a beautiful white scribbly gum in my front garden. I loved to look at the scribbly pictures and loved them and the tree. One day, I was out and when I came home two men had cut down the whole tree. My heart felt great pain and I cried. I was very angry at the men who had cut down the tree I loved. It would not be there for me to hug.

Once upon a time there lived a dragon. It gave the most excitingest dream to everyone. Then one nite the dream dragon gave us all very scary dreams. My borhter was in tears and mum came and cuddled him. Mum said we must ask the dream dragon to help with our dreams by making the yucky one goes away. So the dream dragon huffed and puffed and with all his mite he blew away the yucky dreams for the rest of that nite. The end.

Constable Zac

Hi, my name is Constable Zac. Today I start my job at 7 o’clock. I work at the Police Station in NSW. Today the Sergent said that there has been a car crash at the shops. That is not far from here. I get in the police van with my partner, Constable Tim. When I get there I find out who caused the accident. It was a robber who jumped into a car and took control and crashed the car. We help the people who are hurt and call the ambulance. The ambulance comes and takes hurt people to hospital and fixes themup. Next someone calls on the radio. It says someone is speeding in street that is close to here. I get in the police van with my partner. We put on our flashing lights and we put on our siren. We soon caught up to them and they pulled over to the side of the road. I gave him a ticket and he had pay me a fine. Then we got police van and drove back to the police station. On the way back I see two other speeding cars. I chase after them. They aren’t pulling over to the side of the road, so I ring them up and they see me chasing them and they pull over. I give them a ticket. Then I go back to the police station and write my report. Then I go to bed.

Zac, aged 8. He won a Principal’s Award for this story.

Summer – verse

Summer is the best time to drink.
Under the water I swim.
Mosquitoes annoy me at Summer.
Mum and Dad take me on holidays.
Exciting things happen in Summer.
Riding on a surf board is cool.

Fagan park pond

Yesterday my class went to Fagan Park pond. The dam was round, big and had brownish water. The birds had small dark oval eyes. The birds had coloured feathers and soft feathers, the reeds are soft, long, hollow green reeds. There was one angry duck. It had a red mask.
