GRADE 5 GAZETTE NEWS, NEWS, NEWS . . . A Report on the Hallowe’en Play by Tori Johnson It was November 3rd when the Grade 5 girls put on a successful play. The play was called, ‘A Very Hysterical House ' . All of the actors were great. This play was about ghosts that lived in a house. A few days before Hallowe ' en there was a wrecking crew that was going to knock down the house and put an expressway through and another group that wanted to turn the house into a museum. It all turned out Tike this: Both of the groups ran out because the ghosts scared them and no one ever came back to disturb that house. The Grade 5 girls and Miss Hildebrand all helped decorating the room with sheets, towels and cobwebs on the furniture. We put on two plays, one for the Grade 3 4 class and one for the Grade 6 class. The Grade 5 6 Girls Bowling Trip by Terri Liu and Cathy Anderson On Friday March 4, 1988, the grade 5 6 girls travelled on a bus to the Fergus Bowling Lanes. The owner had opened the bowling alley for our benefit. We were allowed one beverage and one piece of junk food. Some people bought five or six things! We were also allowed to buy something for recess later on. People who were exceptionally good at bowling got strikes or spares. We had to keep score for ourselves, except for the check- ups of the mothers who came along. Strikes and spares were not usually welcome at the scoring table. Scorekeepers often became confused and needed the aid of a mother. Some of the mothers also played. It was fun watching them bowl. Everybody had lots of fun, including Miss Hildebrand, who is quite good at bowling. When we came back only a few people ate lunch. Everybody en- joyed the trip and if we could do it again we would! Oh Amanda, a day off school can’t be that bad?! AND MORE NEWS! The Beginning of Peanut Butter’s Life by Alison Radtke and Alice Robinette One cold Thursday afternoon, a woman named Miss Hildebrand came into the Kitchener Pet Store that I’d been living in for the last two months. To my surprise she came right over to my cage and looked me straight in the eye. She put her hand in my cage and lifted me out gently. She put me in her arms and she petted me. Then she put me back in my cage and I felt that she didn ' t want me. She lifted up my cage and took me to the cash register! I waited for five minutes while she signed the bill. “I want to get out of here!’’ I yelled but no one heard me. Bump, bump, bump. I was in the back of Miss Hildebrand’s car, was it bumpy! Then all of a sudden I heard someone talking and then it all went fuzzy. I heard Miss Hildebrand say, “Oh, what happened to my radio? After that there were a lot more Oh no ' s” but finally we reached her apartment. She carried me in and gave me some food. Yum, yum. She sat my cage on the table and I went to sleep. The next morning there was another bumpy ride. We arrived at a building and she started talking to me. Hey little hamster, this is the school you’ll be living in. Come on,” she said. “Come on? For goodness sakes I’m in a cage!” I said to myself. She carried me in and put me on a desk. Then I heard voices. This is what they were saying; “Yo Alice!” “Ya Alison, I see it. It’s so cute.” Then everyone started crowding around me! I finally felt that my life was really beginning.
