WHAT AN EXCITING EVENING

I was waiting for a long time in a class room on a Wednesday night. I wasn't feeling nervous because I had been on stage six times before. Finally, after about twenty minutes of waiting or what felt like to me three years we went into the hall to wait. I did singing and gymnastics. While I was back stage waiting for the " When I Grow Up " to finish with some others we were mucking around and we heard a bit of a yell and later we heard that Jessica had been hit on the back of the head by Luca on stage. But in the end the students and parents loved it!

Ta daaaa!

Rufflehead and the sardines

Four Seagulls were looking around for food.  Their names were Redeyes, Fluffytail, Sixtoes and Rufflehead.  Rufflehead was called that because his feathers were always in a mess.  It was a stormy day and Rufflehead had found some left over chips.

“What have you found over there, Rufflehead?” asked Redeyes.

“Nothing,” lied Rufflehead and he quickly ate all the chips.

The next day a truck full of sardines came and was unloaded into a big shipping container.  Three of the Seagulls quickly went to eat the odd sardines that fell off.

“I want to eat from the big piles of sardines,” Rufflehead said to himself. “I hate eating from the ground. ”

So Rufflehead flew into the container.

“Where’s Rufflehead?” asked Sixtoes.

“Probably gone off to find some food for himself,” said Sixtoes.

The three Seagulls flew off to play Hide and Seek.

Rufflehad had eaten a huge amount of sardines.  He heard the three others laughing and shouting and having a great time... without him.

He began to feel very lonely.

“Why did I come in here?” he asked himself.

After a while he went to sleep.  He woke up to hear the door opening.  He was out of there faster then you could say, “Sardines”.

On the way to find his friends he found a full pottle of chips.

“Friends, friends!” he called.  “Come and see what I have found.”

The three Seagulls went over to see what he had.  They all shared a happy meal together and Rufflehead always shared everything from then on.

Moral: Money ( or in this case sardines ) can’t buy happiness.
