Summer s here and so is the newspaper! Hi I m Shelia!

Hello and welcome to the return of Miles monkey page! I Was so happy when I got told I could carry on the page and even more excited when I got elected manager. So anyway I get my page and don't know what to write, so I call the cavalry (dinner ladies Miss.White and Mrs. Wilmot) We came up with many strange and intriguing topics but two things really stood out to me: the weather and the weekends! So lets start with the weekends, my favourite time of the week. No maths, no English, no work, just relaxation (oh and an annoying brother!) When I m with my mum, I always have an amazing time and it s the same at my dad s. We might go ice skating, go to a trampoline park or just chill. Another topic was the typical British weather and the only thing to really talk about is RAIN! (and the off chance of some sun shine) but we have had some quite nice weather recently. And I have actually worn shorts! Talking about the nice weather whenever it is sunny, I climb on to the top of my play house roof (Don t worry its only about 3 meters off the ground!) but I fell off and I now have a yellow bruised arm. But I lived and I still climb up there! Here is my brother kissing a toad! See year 3/4 page for a back story

Everyone is gossiping about the end of year play an wondering if it will go well. There is also gossip about the leavers disco for year six. Year six disco Isle of Wight-most year six s are so excited about Isle of Wight. A lot of the year six s had been stressing about SATS but they are finally over! By Megan Sisson

Recently the year 6 s went on a residential trip to the Isle Of Wight. We woke up at ridiculous o clock in the morning and set of on our five and a half hour journey to the Isle Of Wight. After the ferry we went to the Isle Of Wight zoo and saw a lioness being fed. On Tuesday we went to Black Gang Chine an awesome theme park. It was scorching hot so everyone had to wear lots of sun cream! Sadly I (Miles) didn't and got quite bad sunburn, but I wasn't the only one! On Wednesday we went to the scary but interesting doll museum. When Mrs. Higgins took a photo of a doll the camera said BLINK DETECTED which creeped everyone out! We then went to the beach and played on the park. Thursday was the day of fossil hunting and we found some very cool and strange things! We then had an hour on the beach to allow the story teller to set up. She told us lots of different stories - some scary, some funny. Then on the last day we woke up early and set back for West Hallam where we all met our parents and told them about what a good time we had!

A man gets an egg and a rocket kit. The man builds the rocket and puts the egg inside it. Then the man stands back and launches the rocket. The rocket suddenly blew up. The egg was not damaged how come? If a man is trapped in a room. There are no doors no windows. How did he get out? A sheep was in the field and it just vanished How can that be? A farmer has 17 sheep and all but 9 die. How many are left? How many apples would you have if you took two apples from three apples? Eskimos are very good hunters, but they never hunt penguins. Why not? By Charlotte

A note from the team. The team would like to say a big thank you for supporting us for the past newspapers we have contributed to and we now also have to say goodbye as all of us are now trotting off to secondary school, but Megan our year 5 trainee will take over with a new team and keep the newspaper going!
