Thanh Dear Mrs. Benevides, Thank you for getting the swing set and the see-saws. We have fun on the swings and see- saws. It is scary when the see-saws go up and down. We are not allowed behind the swings and see-saws but we have to line up at the swings and the see-saws. Our turn is on Wednesdays. I have seen other children on it and they were happy on the swings. Mark Outerbridge Dear Mr. Henagulph, Thank you for putting up the swing set at the school field and thank you for putting up the see-saws. The see-saws are lots of fun to ride on. Every Wednesday it is our turn on the swings and see-saws. I can ' t wait until Wednesday because I want to ride on the see- saws and swing on the swings. Nicholas Hirn A big thank you to this year ' s class mothers for all their hard work and support. Mrs. Marley (co-ordinator of the class mothers) Mrs. Leman (3T), Mrs. Lee (3M), Mrs. Taft (2B), Mrs. Starling (2D), Mrs. Sim- mons (IB) and Mrs. Clarke-Irons (IS). Enjoying the swings and see-saws. The Halloween Fair 1 X m ' The Castle of Fun by Marc Boden. Halloween On Halloween I was Snoopy. First I went to the Halloween Fair for one and a half hours. Then I went to Aaron Oliphan ' s Halloween party. I won the lucky dip. Then I went trick or treating with the big boys. We went up and down the hill. It was fun. Then we went to nearly every house on the farm. We had a lot of fun at the Saltus Fair. I like the castle of fun. It is very bouncy. I always fall down. Halloween On Halloween I dressed up as Inky the cat and secretly crept up on my mother. Then I screamed boo and she jumped a foot off the ground. So I giggled. She turned and saw thin air. I had gone round with her back and ran off with Jonathan to play on the fort. He was the Lone Ranger. Stephen Sainsbury 3T John and Patrick Singleton ' s most topical costume il- lustrated two of Bermuda ' s current problems: the Aedes Aegypti mosquito and the housing shortage.
