Creative Writing
If you ask any of the students in our Year 3/4 class what are some important things to remember when you are creating a piece of writing, they will tell you to make your piece engaging with a compelling start, and to demonstrate to the reader how someone is feeling. Some wonderful examples of our talented writers are included below:
The Royal Botanic Gardens
I smelt the sea as we walked along the edge of the water. My feet were aching like something I have never felt before. The view of the Opera House was beautiful, and the Harbour Bridge was amazing. It was one of the best excursions I have gone to. I learnt so many things. There are so many plants.

Describing A Scene
The black figures rowed across the gleaming dark ocean. Their eyes stared at the black house with only one gold light beaming up to them. The black figures rowed faster once they checked the time. Soon enough they reached the house. He knocked on the door. A strange man opened the door. Then they shut the door hard! Then they locked it. They turned the key around and around and around! Then suddenly the house disappeared.

They all sat silently in the mysterious forbidden forest. They listened to stories. Suddenly they heard a strange noise coming from behind the trees.
By Ashleigh
It was a dark foggy night. My eyes spotted a small boat drifting in the water. I looked again and then it was gone.
By Piper
He arrived at the surface of the water he took a deep breath of fresh air. His body was still. The swamp was green and large.
By Ali
I plunged into the icy water with the shiny cold fish. I felt goose bumps and my arms felt heavy.
By Adrianne
Whoosh! The wind blew past my cold shivering face. My heart was beating heavily as the polar bear roared and the snow fell from the trees.
By Samantha
The adorable seal had lonely lost eyes. On the frosty ice he slid, looking for fish to stop his rumbly tummy.

The Big Climb
Step by step he walked through the crunchy snow to make it to the top of the escarpment. The climb went on for ever and he thought he was going to collapse. When he reached the top, he fell to the ground with a thud.
By Rae
One step at a time, he felt the pain in his knees, but he was brave enough to keep on going. Suddenly, he knew he was really near at the very top. When he looked up at the sky he saw the sun, it was beaming into his hazel eyes. He kept walking and made it to the top.

Feeling Shy
I feel sick in the stomach and my legs begin to wobble. My face turns red and I stay close to my mum and dad. I don’t want to talk to anyone. I look straight ahead.
By Billy
When I walk into the shop people look at me weirdly. My head is straight, and my eyes look sideways. I feel weird and sick to my stomach, so I stay close to my mum. My arms are crosses, my legs and knees are wobbly.

Feeling Worried
I suddenly started to panic, shaking tremendously and was biting my nails. Looking everywhere and breathing heavily, I curl up in a ball while a small tear drips down my face.
By Ava
Suddenly, my heart started to race. My legs started shaking and my hands sweating. The moment I started dancing; my eyes twinkled as my feet presses lightly on the floor. I was not afraid anymore.
By Maddie
Boom, Boom, Boom! My heart was beating so fast. I felt goose bumps and I had butterflies in my stomach. My cheeks were hot and red. I had my hands over my eyes so I couldn’t see what was happening. My jaw dropped; my legs were shaking. I was shocked!
By Holly
One night I heard a knock at the door. I was very scared. I had my hand over my mouth. I was shivering with fear.
