Food of the gods by Kaci-Shaye

My favourite meal would be a roast dinner, because I love Yorkshire puddings. When my mum asks me what I would like for my dinner I say; “Can we have a roast dinner?” she sometimes says no because it isn’t healthy but we normally have it on Sundays.

Smell: I can always smell the hot gravy, also the roasted chicken beside my mash potatoes.
Taste: I can taste the hot mash-potatoes, and the crunchy Yorkshire puddings in gravy.
Look: It looks like a Sunday dinner but better with dribbling gravy falling of your roasted chicken.
Feel: I feel the smooth mash potatoes The vegetables are soft with the gravy on top.

Michael's Diary by Kaci-Shaye

Dear Diary,

Today I got home from school and dad was packing up all our belongings and then putting it in a blue, small van. I wasn’t happy at all I loved my home, my school and all my friends. My dad asked me to help him take my mattress into the van. I asked dad why we are moving. He replied because ‘We live in a tiny flat and we have a baby coming, also we have a lot of neighbours that will complain about the baby.’ We all got buckled up and set off.

As we was travelling to our new house I saw a lot of starlings (well I think it was starlings) flying above in the grey sky. I moved side to side to get comfy in the dusty, old van. We drove into a little street called Falconer Road.

I jumped out of the van in excitement when I looked up my feelings fell into the ground. It was a disaster; it looked like Spiderman decorated it for his 5th birthday. It looked like it was built in the 1800's. Dad thought it was amazing, mum was impressed but not that much, anyway the house looked it was a dump.

The Lost Thing by Kaci-Shaye

It was late afternoon when I got to the beach, looking for bottle tops. It was tiring with my bag on my back as I trudged through the sand. Whilst the other people were doing other things I had my head down looking for bottle tops. Then I found a red, dirty bell, I picked it up, it was on a rope, when I looked up there was a brown, rusty, spiky, circular big tank. I walked around the big tank and there was a hatch so I banged on it, it opened up so I popped my head through and shouted, “Hello?” there was no answer all I could hear was my voice echoing. I dropped the hatch and that also echoed. I looked up and there was a fan it got faster and faster and tentacles came out of the hatches. I was scared but I wanted to know what it was, then another hatch opened and a beach ball came flying out of it. I did not want to make it angry, so I played with the lonely, dirty tank. We played catch, it reminded me of dogs playing with balls.

The Meerkats by Kaci-Shaye

All was warm and cosy in the front room. All was silent in the front room. The family was watching television, they were watching the soaps (Coronation Street, Emmerdale and EastEnders) they loved watching the soaps after a hard day at work. Then the meerkat advert came on (the children loved it they made them laugh) then the meerkats came walking out from the telly.

The family sat down and watched in amazement. The meerkats took over the front room, then they walked in the kitchen it a single file line like school kids. Slowly they opened the silver, cold fridge and took out the orange juice and had one sip each, then they got the milk out and had two sips out then they left the milk out. Quickly they searched the house for board games and they found loads in Lilly’s bedroom there were monopoly, Lego and other board games.  They had a lot of fun but then an hour later they thought they should leave the house so they waved to the nice warm family, the children watched the meerkats go into the house in front of them.

The children were quite sad that the meerkats were gone, but they were happy that they came for 1½ hours and  it was good fun they said to their parents. The parents said, “We should tidy up the way the meerkats left the house, come on kids you put the games away and me and your dad will put the drinks away and mop the floor. "
