One day Amy and Ava were going on a morning walk with their dog, down to beautiful lake. When they got there they were amazed by the view and how clear the lake water was. After a while of looking around their dog had fallen into the water to find that it was quite deep. They had to jump into the lake to get the dog. They had seen when they were looking around that there was a beautiful waterfall at the end of the lake. When had managed to catch up with the dog they were a bit late and had just fallen down the waterfall! When they got to the end they wanted to do it again the next day they went on a walk but they wanted to leave the dog behind.

The Best Walk by Ashley
I used to go on walks maybe 2 or 3 times every week, but ever since Covid-19 has started, I go on walks every day.
Yesterday I went on an amazing walk with my dog, where I went was like a beautiful forest surrounded by mountains, it also had a very nice waterfall with a lake. It sounded so calm and quiet, especially with the waterfall.
I threw the ball for my dog and it ended up in the lake, my dog dived right in and caught the ball.
When I looked at my watch I realised it was time to go, but I didn’t want to leave. I would definitely be coming here tomorrow.

A Day in Each Other’s Shoes by Jessica M
One day two friends called Amy and Ava were in the zoo arguing as always. After they finished that they decided that they would spend a day in each other’s shoes. Amy had a very poor background while Ava was quite rich. As they were doing what the other usually does Ava found out that Amy stores her clothes in a box that sits under a brown chair. Amy discovered the Ava has a sky view roof and she is very good at art as she has a picture of a realistic leaf hanging over another picture of a racoon. At the end of the day the girls agreed that whenever they argue they would spend a day in each other’s shoes so they understand each others point of view.

The Screams by Ashley
I was in the forest with my friends, we had to stay close, we didn’t want to lose anybody.
The deafening screams echoed through the cold night, the sound was worse than when you scrape a blackboard. One of my friends had told us that coming here in the middle of the night was a bad idea, we ignored her though. It was cold and dark with only two torches to help us see in front of us.
We heard the screams again, except this time louder so we knew we were close. That’s when something ran past us, we had found it.
The Night Before Halloween by Jessica M

Before they went to bed they heard a noise coming from outside so they went out to see what it was. Directly in front of the door was a note with a clue trial. The girls decided to do it, the first clue led them to a dark cave. When they arrived at the cave there was a clown staring at them. The girls let out a scream. The deafening scream echoed through the cold night and the girls ran…

Homeless by Cian
My life is empty,
I live nowhere and everywhere,
I beg and beg,
I get donations,
I’m hungry,
I’m thirsty,
I’m scared as I hear the deafening screams echoed through the cold night.
I’m innocent and guilty,
You see me sometimes,
On T.V or in person,
I need your help,
I need everyone’s help,
To stay alive,
To stay alive and have hope,
Have hope for a better future,
Or a normal future,
You know who I am,
I am poor,
I am unfortunate,
I am homeless.

Jessica and Ashley had pasta, we thought it was super funny to have the same dinner at the same time. Then it started getting late, my mam ask me if I wanted to take a walk down the beach and watch the moon rise. When we got there I was able to show the girls the view from my phone. It was amazing.
