Blue Is

Blue is like the colour of the sea
Blue is the colour of blueberry tea
Blue is like the colour of my sock
Blue is the colour of my mates frock

Gold is like the colours in a rainbow
Gold is the colour of an angel’s halo
Gold is like the colour of my dads fire place
Gold is the colour of people leaving in haste

Silver is like the colour of a chandelier
Silver is the colour of a can of beer
Silver is like the silver spots on the flower pots
Silver is the colour of the cushion cots

White is like the waves froth
White is the colour of a cough
White is like a polo horse

Ipswich town v Norwich City

Today’s fierce and fiery game is between super Ipswich and scummy Norwich. The crowd are cheering wildly and loud enough to be heard on the moon!

They have the same shape
But not the same size
They are used in lots of games
And all have different rules

You buy them anywhere
And at any price
You can do with them
Whatever you like

You play on any surfaces
And they don’t get messed about
You’ll stop playing and go away
And when you come out they’ll be fine

Always Shine

Always Shine

Shine , Shine , Shine , Shine,
See how far you can climb.
Reach up high,
Reach up tall.
Shine as much as Claremont school.

By Ben age 7

Outside My Classroom Window...

The view from my classroom window;
As all the birds sweep by,
The cars rush past to get to work,
The buildings stand so high.

The view from my classroom window;
As the people trot on past,
The trees sway in the gentle wind,
This boredoms going to last.

The view from my classroom window;
As the daisy pollute the grass,
The house lights flicker on and off,
The streets are covered in glass.

The view from my classroom window;
My teacher does not like,
She makes me shut the dark black blind,
Too shut out the sunny light.
