"a day in the trenches" (a day under the strings of wool)

When I go to school it started raining, but we couldn't get inside because the teachers had locked us out!, They had also put down the blinds so we could not see inside. After awhile Miss Daly came outside and let us in. It was dark. In Waitemata and Hauraki there were strings everywhere, and they were up to my hips!, all the teachers were wearing black clothes and had war face paint on. We sat down murmuring about what was going on. Then the crazy teachers shushed us and told us the rules. Then we grabbed our art books and crawled under to find a place to do our work. We found a place and sat down. Once the test started Mrs Jones put up a speaker and played really loud bomb sounds to distract us from the test. I think that I did better with bomb noises than I do without. The teachers motto of the day was probably "You put your head up, i'll shoot you!".

After awhile it was play time and it was raining so I had to go be a wet day monitor. But then the bell rang and we went back to the trenches to do our writing. Ms Sands told us the story and we had to draw pictures that explained the word she said. Then we did some acrostic poems, I did 5. 

We had heaps of fun!

Here is me and my friends:
